The children of Reed and Janie (Hibbs) Gram of Hampton, Va., are proud to announce the 50th wedding anniversary of their beloved parents.

Reed is the son of Reed and Dwella Gram of Littleton. Janie is the daughter of Ernest and Lucy Jane Hibbs of Burton. Reed and Janie began dating at Hundred High School and were married six months later. Reed’s service in the Air Force took the couple many places, including Spain and Italy, before they finally settled down in Virginia in 1983.

Reed and Janie now own and operate Distinguished Products, a flag sales business in Hampton, Va. They have three married children: Cheryl, a computer analyst; Dean, a retired Navy submariner; and Wendy, a lawyer. They also have five grandchildren: Scott, James, Eric, Ryan, and Robyn.

The couple will be celebrating their anniversary at Niagara Falls in Canada.
