Krey, Mildred (26 DEC 1947)

REEDSBERG(special) Miss Mildred Krey and Immanuel Leschensky were united in marriage at St. John’s Lutheran church here at 12 o’clock noon on Friday, Dec. 26, midst a setting of poinsetta plants and Christmas trees.

The marriage ceremony was performed by the groom’s father, the Rev. H. F. Leschensky of this city, and his brother, the Rev. Eugene Leschensky of Cedarburg.

Mrs. Scheide of Lodi sang "Because" and "The Lord’s Prayer" at the ceremony. The Lohengrin and Mendellsohn wedding marches were played by Edwin Roever on the organ.

She wore a wedding gown of Japanese silk, made with a fitted bodice, which was worn by her mother at her wedding. With this, she wore a floor length veil and carried a bouquet of white mums, calla lilies and ferns.
