A Wedding


Cliff and Mel Rye



This lovely couple went to the altar to in 1944. They said vows that would be kept until the groom died in the late eighties. His wife continues to celebrate life. They were a dear couple rich in personal ideas and like ideals. They worked together to form a marriage union and business union as well.




The little boy with the gopher curl in his hair was promised a gallon of ice cream for his services as a ring bearer. It is understood there was concern about the floor furnace grate, the pillow and the rings.




This little boy is now grown up and will attend the wedding of his own son today. At a dinner of the wedding party, nothing was heard of promises of ice cream at weddings as it was 60+ years ago.



Where you ever part of a wedding party? Perhaps you were an aunt and cut the cake, or a sister-in-law and opened gifts or encouraged guests to sign the guest book.
It is an honor to be a party of any celebration.
Today

a
wedding
I will light a candle
Won't you light one for them as well?
