Mom and Dad Fiftieth Anniversary

Mom and Dad (Dorothy Margaret Figueroa and William Martin Conlon) were married on 31 May 1952 at St. Mary Gate of Heaven Church in Richmond Hill.  Fifty years later they celebrated with a grand party at the Carltun in Eisenhower Park, a short distance from where they held their wedding reception.

  • Judith and I asked Gene Thomas, who interviewed Mom and Dad that weekend, to capture the party on video. Here is the cast and crew.
  • I prepared and printed a book with selected photos.  Here is a pdf version.
  • Here is an album of photos taken by Jacob Conlon.

For easy access, these have been added to the Family History page.
