Beverly
married Larry Hamond (2/6/42) on April 19, 1969 at the
Prince of Peace Lutheran
Church in Ida. Their attendants were Sandy
Rod, Maryann Strzesinski, Judy Mclish, Nancy Hess, Sheila Frank,
Stan Hatter, Ted Strzesinski, Tom Powers, John Siefer, and Tom
Strzesinski.
Their reception was at the Ida Fire Hall. It turned
out to be a nice day. Bev was gorgeous in a white, A-line dress
with a train that was attached at the neckline with lace on the
sleeves. Her bridesmaids were in empire waist dresses, each a
different color. I remember this wedding too, Bev was radiant
and Larry looked a little nervous, but it was a swell reception,
with lots of food and drink. A typical date for Larry & Bev was
going to the drive-in movies.
One of Bev’s memories was when she was a little child, going to
stay at Uncle Norm & Aunt Esther’s farm. She had fun gathering
the eggs and riding on the wagon filled with wheat and playing
in the hay loft. When they were kids, they lived above Uncle Bob
and Aunt Tillies bar in Ida, then they moved to a remodeled
schoolhouse on Trost Rd in the country near Ida. After Bev and
Larry married they lived in Howell, then Charlotte, then way out
to Woodbridge, VA, and now they are back here in Howell at 3550
Byron Rd., Howell, Ml. |
