Edwards, Janet Elaine (Marriage – 9 Sept. 1972)

Miss Janet Elaine Edwards, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Hershel Edwards, 1816, Minnesota Ave., was given in marriage by her father Saturday when she wed James Roy Pape of Milwaukee, son of the Richard U. Papes, Cudahy.

The Rev. James Oliver officiated at the 7 p.m. candlelight ceremony at Trinity Lutheran Church, for which Steven Tillman was soloist and Mrs. Robert T. Wray organist.

The bride wore a semi-fitted, A-line gown of double knit crepe. The princess lines were accented by white lace trimmed with blue and green embroidered braid. Two rows of lace bordered the hemline and train. The gown was made by Mrs. Anthony Shulist, sister of the bride. The chapel length bridal veil was held in place with a headband of double knit crepe and blue and green trimmed lace. The bride’s colonial bouquet was of white roses, blue carnations and baby’s breath.

Mrs. Anthony Schulist, sister of the bride, was matron of honor. Bridesmaids were Miss JoAnn Pape, sister of the bridegroom, and Miss Joanne Seefelt. They wore A-line gowns of blue, white and green flowered voile featuring long full sleeves with wide cuffs. Each carried a long-stemmed white rose tied with white streamers.

Richard J. Pape was best man for his brother. Groomsmen were Jerome Pape, brother of the bridegroom, and Anthony Shulist. Glenn Hardrath and Carol Larson were ushers.
