ATLANTA—Bill Turbyfield, retired head of a construction company, and his wife Marilyn Turbyfield, retired manager of Turbyfield Construction, celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary with a trip to Shen Yun Performing Arts at the Atlanta Symphony Hall on Jan. 7.

“The history, the culture—it was an experience,” Mrs. Turbyfield said. “Just to think of the hard work. And the talent!”

“That was a highlight. There’s power in the divine, and there’s a God that created us, and he rules this whole universe. And to see him embodied in this, sort of centralized and put a focus there for a moment, and it brought meaning—I think brought power to this show,” Mrs. Turbyfield said.

“I couldn’t say it any better,” Mr. Turbyfield added.“Everyone needs to come and watch this.”

“It was just phenomenal, we loved it. Next year we’re going to come back and bring the grandchildren,” Mrs. Turbyfield said. “I can [sum it up] in one word: unforgettable.”
