Rossow, Peggy Jean (Marriage - 19 August 1966)

The altar of Our Savior’s Lutheran Church in Greenwood was lighted with candles and graced with bouquets of yellow pompons and white carnations for the wedding Saturday of Miss Peggy Jean Rossow and David Gary Friske, whose parents are Mr. and Mrs. Edward C. Rossow of rural Loyal, and Mr. and Mrs. Norbert Friske of Rt. 1 Greenwood. The Rev. Arvid Myhrwold performed the double ring ceremony.

For her wedding the bride chose a floor length gown of white bridal mist taffeta, styled with a detachable train. The fitted bodice was styled with a bateau neckline. The bodice and skirt front were beaded with miniature crystals and pearls. A bouffant fingertip veil was attached to a Swedish crown headpiece. She carried a cascade bouquet of yellow roses and stephanotis with streamers of white ribbon and yellow rosebuds.

Mrs. Michael Podrovitz of Greenwood was matron-of-honor. Bridesmaids were Miss Barbara Hendrickson of Milwaukee, Faye Friske of Whitehall and Miss Margie Dyre of Greenwood. They appeared in floor length canary yellow crepe sheath gowns, accented on either side of Empire wrists by two small bows. The bodice was highlighted by a bateau neckline and tulip sleeves, and a lace Watteau flowing from the shoulders. They wore matching accessories and each carried a large white Duchess Rose. Their headpieces were four-tiered yellow net over matching crepe bows.

The groom was attended by Bernard K. Friske of Greenwood as bestman. Groomsmen were Duane Olson of Greenwood, Dennis Wendt of Owen and Kerry Buttke of Alma Center. Ushers were Maynard Bowe of Greenwood and Danny Rossow of Niagara Falls, N. Y.

Mr. and Mrs. Friske will reside in rural Greenwood on their return from a wedding trip to Canada.

The bride has been employed in a print shop in Merrill, and the groom is employed in Loyal.
