Happy 50th (now 53rd!) anniversary to Ginnie and Bill Brett!

Today we pause to wish Ginnie and Bill Brett a happy 50th anniversary. Yes, we too wonder how she’s made it this long. (Kidding, Bill, kidding.)

Let’s look at the impressive numbers: 50 years of marriage, four children, and 8 grandchildren, who are the lights of Bill and Ginnie’s lives. (She’s also stood by the rest of the team through six books, the launch of this site, and about 10,000 events that he’s covered since stepping down as the Boston Globe’s chief photographer.)

One of the couple’s children shared this quote: “To love is nothing. To be loved is something. But to love and be loved, that’s everything.” — T. Tolis

Ginnie and Bill’s wedding, November 14, 1971.
