By William and Jean Harris

Retired Rear Adm. William L. Harris Jr. and his wife Jean O., 22-year Los Altos residents, celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary Oct. 27 at a dinner given by their children at their eldest daughter’s home in the Oakland Hills. The Harrises were married Oct. 27, 1951, in Brighton, Mass.

The Harrises’ children and grandchildren presented them with an album documenting the couple’s first 50 years of marriage. After his retirement from the Navy after 33 years of service, Harris worked at Lockheed for 10 years. Jean O. was a practicing criminal attorney and now volunteers for the Cantor Center For The Arts and the Asian Art Museum.

In Our Opinion

Editorial

For the first time in five years, a public elementary school, Gardner Bullis, opened its doors last week in Los Altos Hills. For some, it was, metaphorically speaking, the last stitch removed from the old wound following the closure of the original Bullis-Purissima School in 2003.

For others, including the diehards who formed the successful Bullis Charter School, the sting of the Bullis closure lingers. But our sense is that for most Hills residents not part of the Loyola School coverage area, the opening of Gardner Bullis means the resurrection of a long-sought-after neighborhood school and the community benefits that come with it.
