Mrs. Catherine Edson, a sprightly 78 (widow and widower), both of Centerville, became husband and wife in a touching wedding ceremony performed by the
Rev. David W. Myers.
Attending the bride was

Bernard Linehan of Sandwich.
Other children of the bride and their spouses in attendance were:
daughter
Catherine (Mrs. Red Chase) of St. Simon Island, Ga.,
daughter

Mrs. Bruce
Holly Ellis and their daughter
Hannah, a great grandchild; and

Perry Phinney of Nccdham, a daughterin-law of the bridegroom; and
Rose Beaumont,
Harriet Hall and
Catherine Borden of the Home Health Aide Board of Cape Cod where the new Mrs. Phinney has served for the past 12 years and p lans to continue that service.
Mr. Phinney is a retired civil engineer. Because of travel distances and work schedules, his children were unable to attend.

"What?!"
"I didn't say anything."
