A COUPLE who divorced after 21 years are celebrating their first wedding anniversary - for the second time.
Tomorrow marks the first year since Neville and Barbara Pearce, of Cockerham Lane, Barnsley, married at St Thomas's Church in Gawber after 35 years apart.
Barbara, 79, and Neville, 81, have known each other since 1953, and were married in 1956 and divorced in 1977.
But they found love again following the death of Neville's second wife, also called Barbara, in 2012.
** The full story appears in the Barnsley Chronicle, dated December 5. **
We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
