Golden Wedding Anniversary of Dr Dara and Freny Merchant







Dear Dr Dara & Freny

Congratulati
ons to you both on this great day celebrating your Golden Wedding Anniversary and without a doubt what a wonderful celebration party everyone enjoyed at the exclusive venue, "The Zoroastrian Centre", Harrow.

I enclose some photographs I managed to capture, but regret I was not able to take photographs of everyone.

It was wonderful your daughter Betty and son in law Dr Jehangir Appoo came all the way from Calgary, Canada with granddaughters Aria ( 6 ) and Kiana ( 3 ) to grace this great occasion.

Video clips of the speeches added below.

The first speech presented by your beautiful daughter Betty paid rich tribute to you both was very special, and also proudly announcing that her dad Dr. Dara had attained the age of 90 this year. (Congratuellations once again - you look great for 90 and look forward to the 100th celebration party).

The Second speech by someone special, well known and respecteeecd by all, Mr Dorab Mistry, a well spoken distinguished gentleman certainly presented a great speech certainly paying credit to all you have done and achieved, with of course much laughter hearing of your young days. 

 Dr Dara your speech at the end thanking everyone and particularly your beloved wife Freny and daughter Betty as well as all the friends who had come to make thish a joyous and grand occasion will be remembered for a long time. You even kindly thanked me for providing the live music with my dance band Velvet Touch.
 
Behram Kapadia officiated as master of ceremonies played his part as always.

Delicious food and excellent service were provided by Mrs Farida Vora, her daughter Rosie and son in law Moiz.

The well stocked bar was run by friends of the Marchant family. They were assisted greatly by their long time friends Freny and Hosie Writer as well as by Ratan and Gav Buhariwala and many others - what more can we say!
Dr Dara, it was a pleasure to learn that 'The Marchant family' have always lived in Wimbledon but prior to London, you had served in the Colonial Medical Service in several countries overseas and that you specialised in Tropical Medicine and also in paediatrics.You are certainly a pride to all your family, friends and community.
 
Best wishes to both of you, your family, relatives and friends.
