Meinholdt, Myrna (Marriage - 20 September 1958) 
 

The Immanuel United Church of Christ was the scene Saturday of the wedding of Miss Myrna Meinholdt of Greenwood and Jerald A. Richmond, Rt. 2, Greenwood.  Parents of the couple are Mr. and Mrs. Otto Meinholdt and Mr. and Mrs. Guy Richmond.  The Rev. Orval Egbert performed the double ring ceremony.  Nuptial music was furnished by Mrs. Alvin Alberts. 
 

The bride, given in marriage by her father, was gowned in white nylon tulle and net over taffeta, trimmed in lace and iridescent sequins.  Her headpiece was fashioned like a pill box hat and was trimmed with pearls and sequins.  She carried a bouquet of yellow roses and white pompons with streamers. 
 

Mrs. Herbert Horn, Greenwood, sister of the groom, was matron of honor.  Bridesmaids were Miss Donna Meinholdt, sister of the bride, and Rose Caryl Richmond, sister of the groom.  They were attired in dresses of yellow nylon net and lace ruffles over taffeta, with jackets and matching headpieces. They carried bronze pompons. 
 

Herbert Horn was best man.  Groomsmen were Arthur Franz and Richard Jensen.  Floyd Franz and Orlin Fravert ushered. 
 

The ceremony was followed by a wedding dinner in the church parlors and a reception at the home of the bride’s parents. 
 

Both young people are graduates of Greenwood High School.  The groom is engaged in farming and the bride is employed at a bank in Greenwood. 
 

On their return from a wedding trip through the western states they will reside on the groom’s farm near Greenwood.
