Three weddings from June to August, two brothers and a sister.    Ours was the August one.

Not quite 4 weddings and a funeral, but 2 deaths, 3 weddings, (1 golden, 1 silver) and 1 birth.

My Maternal grandparents Golden Wedding!

My Paternal grandfather died a week after my Paternal grandmother! 

No. 1 brother's wedding in between!

No. 2 brother and his wife had their first child the day before above wedding!

My Mum and Dad's Silver Wedding, - (somewhere in between, can't recall)

So that's 3 weddings, 2 deaths, 2 funerals and 1 birth! All within a week or so.

Modified to add: 1 more Death, 1 more funeral and 1 more Birth.

My Dad passed away from Motor Neurone Disease just 10 days before my son was born, so that's 1 more death, 1 more funeral, one more birth, (and my broken heart because my Dad never met my son or saw him growing into the wonderful man he is now!

My great niece born this year on the same day my grandmother passed away 50 years ago.

My Scottish gt grandfather and my English gt grandmother born on exactly the same day 1855.

My Scottish gt grandmother was born on the same day in 1863 that her son ( my grandfather ) passed away in 1985.

My daughter and my nephew born on the same day 15 years apart.

And the other day I entered a date for a wedding, same day not same year , as ours but  can`t just remember who it was.
