Happy 50th Wedding Anniversary Clare and Daniel McKenna

On Friday, 1st of May, Clare and Daniel are celebrating 50 years of marriage.

Friends since 1969 and married in 1976 at St Monica’s Kangaroo Flat, they have shared a lifetime of love, loyalty, hard work, humour, and family.

Together, they have raised five sons and have been the heart and soul behind Aesop’s Attic Bookshop for so many years.

Their marriage is a beautiful example of commitment, partnership, patience, and devotion. Fifty years is an incredible milestone, reflecting not only the love they have shared but also the love they have given to their family, their friends, and the wider Kyneton community.

Congratulations, Clare and Daniel, on 50 wonderful years together ❤️
