Longtime South Park residents Larry and Jan Guess will be celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary this month.
Larry and Jan - today |
They were married on December 23, 1969 in Bristol, Tennessee. Larry was from the Bristol area but was stationed in Oakdale, PA while serving in the U.S. Army. Jan grew up in Bethel Park, and met Larry through mutual friends at the South Park ice skating rink. And the rest as they say is history!
Larry will soon be retiring from the United States Government with 53 years of service. He served in the U.S. military as a Staff Sergeant in the Army stationed overseas in Korea. He has since worked as a Contracting Officer in the Procurement and Grants Office for the Department of the Interior - Bureau of Mines, Department of Energy and the Department of Health & Human Services – Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Jan is retired from her Insurance CSR career, and loves to travel. She stays very active with volunteering for her church St. Joan of Arc, SHIM-South Hills Interfaith Movement, and the South Park Meals on Wheels program.
Larry and Jan’s family includes two children, six grand children and their two beloved dogs ‘Willie’ and ‘Lizzie.’ Their son, Larry A. Guess, lives in Belle Vernon with his wife Christina and four children, Jared, Jackson, Cameron and Adeline. Their daughter, Michele Gohacki, lives in Finleyville with her husband Dwayne and two children, Lauren and Paul.
Larry and Jan plan to celebrate their 50th Anniversary at a family dinner surrounded by all of their loved ones. Congratulations to Larry and Jan!
