Members of the Boissonneault family, friends, a Color Guard representing Guy's 4th Degree Knights of Columbus Isabella Assembly 122 of Southington, CT., and those attending the 11:00 am Mass at Mary Our Queen Church in Plantsville, CT joined the happy couple in a blessing and renewal of wedding vows officiated by Mary Our Queen Pastor, Rev. A. Waine Kargul.  

A long time member of the Knights of Columbus and past Grand  Knight and Faithful Navigator, Guy and his wife Kathryne, long with Fr. A. Waine Kargul are surrounded by fellow Knights of the Southington Isabella Assembly 122 Color Guard.
Guy was born and raised in Biddeford, ME.  Kathryne was born in Bermuda.

Guy served in the U.S. Air Force for four years in the 1950s.  While stationed at Kinney Air Force Base in Bermuda, Guy met Kathy on a blind date arranged by a friend of hers. They were married in Bermuda on June 28, 1955, on his twenty-second birthday, moving in December 20 Connecticut. Guy worked in retail, moving to Southington in 1962 and remained here until his retirement from  Pratt Whitney in 1993. 

They have five children, Daniel, Marie (Westbrook), Michael, Denise Lopez and Robert and have eleven grandchildren and six great-grandchildren. 

Asked how they felt after sixty years of marriage, Guy said,
"It feels great. It's been a blessing and a gift."

Kathy said, the Lord's been good to us."

Indeed, a loving marriage of 60 years is a blessing and rare gift.
