Fenner, Gladys (? AUGUST 1947)

 

Miss Gladys Fenner, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Herbert Fenner, became the bride of John A. Olsen, son of Mr. and Mrs. Chris Olsen, in a double ring marriage ceremony read by the Rev. Lee Holmes at the Loyal Methodist church at 3 p.m. Saturday. The church was decorated with baskets of cut flowers.

 

The bride chose for her wedding costume a gray cutaway suit, with matching hat and white accessories and a corsage of pink roses.

 

Miss LaVonne Smith was maid of honor. She wore a blue suit with white accessories and a corsage of yellow roses. Floyd Olsen attended his brother. Miss Grace Fenner, sister of the bride, and Miss Ella Olsen, sister of the groom, ushered.

Both the bride and the groom are graduates of Loyal high school, the bride with the class of 1946 and the groom with the class of 1944.
