I took pictures of Alyce and her husband Parran in 1986 when they celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary. Their anniversary party was held at Little Flower on a Sunday, 13 April 1986 with Congressman Roy Dyson acting as Master of Ceremonies.
In his remarks, Roy noted that he had been invited that Sunday afternoon to the premier of Sissy Spacek’s movie Violets Are Blue which was filmed in Ocean City. Roy noted how he had to tell Ms. Spacek that he was very sorry but Alyce and Parran’s 50th Wedding Anniversary took precedence and that he would not be attending the movie premier.
I was not able to find anything in the local papers about the 50th celebration of their marriage, but I did find the following article on Alyce turning 100 years old.
