Fifty years ago William Sanders and Jean Wishop were married on August 18, 1962 at Second Congregational church in Rockford, Ill.
They have been blessed with children Michael (Stacey), Karla (Ken) Rohman, Gayle (Jeremiah) Litteral, and Gary (friend Debra). Added joys are their grandchildren Timothy, Elisabeth, and Jake Rohman, Nick, Ben, Maggie, Rebecca, and Rachel Sanders, and Cora and Henry Litteral.
Over the years they have been richly blessed and will celebrate with a Hawaiian trip and in September, family and friends will gather at the Wishop family farm.
