Lois and Dick Parker celberate their 50th wedding anniversary!

Dick and Lois Parker met in Taft, California in 1948, and were married November 10th 1956. In 1957 their son Craig was born, and then their daughter Nancy was born in 1960. Dick and Lois moved to a new subdivision here in Sacramento, October 10th, 1962 and put down roots on Meckel Way right here in the Overbrook #1 area being built by the Streng brothers. Dick and Lois moved into their new home where neighbors were scarce since houses were still being built. They were one of the of the only 2 households living in the area at that time. Dick taught school and was a couselor at American River College. Dick retired from American River College in 1987. Lois a Registered Nurse at American River Hospital, retired in 1997. Now after being married for 50 years, this couple spends their time on the go! Gardening, (pruning and sculpting that beautiful tree next to their drive way) golfing, doing the cross word puzzles together, reading, and knitting. I haven't actually seen Dick knit, so I believe this is Lois's hobby only! The two love packing up with their adorable dog Skippy and taking to the road in their RV trailer. They have been on some fabulous get aways, from the ocean, to the desert and every stop in between! We love Dick and Lois, and are so thankful to have them as friends and neighbors! HAPPY ANNIVERSARY!!!!!!
