Historical information

Dinny (Dennis) Dwyer met nursing sister Lieutenant Majorie Barnett in 1944 when she was nursing him. He had broken his neck in a truck accident. Their budding relationship quickly ended when the army sent Driver Dwyer to Melbourne to complete his rehab. Each went on to lead full but separate lives, getting married and having children, until the early 1990's when Dinny managed to track Marjorie down. A whirlwind telephone courtship ensued, followed by a wedding to be held in Castlemaine.
