I now present Mr. and Mrs. Donald R. Carr Jr.
Last night our niece Becky married her longtime sweetheart Don. The ceremony took place at Stanley Park’s The Arboretum with a reception at Westfield State College in Scanlion Hall. Pics are here. I’ve got to say that I think these two had the best wedding kiss that I’ve ever seen. ...
