NWJPB is an extended family.  This story celebrates the life and history of NWJPB Grandparents celebrating their 52nd anniversary, and pays a lot of attention to bagpipes, and the experiences of a couple of NWJPB members on our recent trip to the World Pipe Band Championships, 2008.  A brief excerpt from the story:

Ken was able to retire from the military shortly after in 1975 and the family was finally able to put down roots. 

To mark the occasion, Mieko bought him a set of silver bagpipes, his favorite instrument since childhood. 

“That’s all he wanted, the nut,” Mieko said. “But he’s my nut.”

Congratulations to Ken and Mieko on your 52 years!
