Kathleen Valmai Evans of Woodlands, Guilsfield, Wales, UK, was the daughter of Thomas and Mabel Evans. Her groom, John Gratton Roberts of Prestatyn N.Wales was the son of Herbert and Maud Roberts. The couple married Oct. 20, 1956 in Guilsfield Parish Anglican Church. The vicar was Rev. David Rees. Best man was Rev. John C. Price a friend of the groom. Bridal attendants were Pamela Evans, sister of the bride, Doreen Boycotte, a college friend and the flowergirl, Janet Evans, the bride's niece. The newlyweds honeymooned in London, England. Following their marriage they lived in Newbridge, Monmouthshire, South Wales. John was a Presbyterian Minister of Religion and Kay was a school teacher. Eventually after moving to Canada. John ministered in Belgrave and Kay helped young minds flourish at Blyth Public School. They retired in 1989. The couple has two children, Howard Roberts and Alison Miculan. Their family has grown to include grandchildren, Alexandra, Ian, Emma, Evan and Rachel. The Robertses are very active in the community.

Kay is actively involved with with Wingham United Church Women, the Huronlea Auxiliary and the Belgrave Women's Institute Branch. She is also an elder of Wingham United Church. Both are members of Belgrave Community Club and have always enjoyed musical activities. They both chuckle as they frequently are asked to 'entertain' the seniors. On these occasions John sings solos, accompanied by Kay at the piano. They also include a number of humorous stories which are ususally very well received.
