Lindow, Janice Clara (Marriage - 16 June 1962)

Baskets of white gladioli and mums adorned the altar of the Greenwood Gospel Mission Church for the wedding of Miss Janice Clara Lindow, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Donald Lindow, Rt. 1, Neillsville, and Ronald Herbert Gallion, son of Mr. and Mrs. Alvin Gallion of Isle, Minn.

The bride was given in marriage by her father.  The Rev. Kenneth Lindow, brother of the bride, officiated at the afternoon ceremony.

For her wedding, the bride chose a floor length gown of white lace over blue silk. The fitted bodice featured a scalloped neckline and long sleeves which came to a pint at the wrists.  Her fingertip veil cascaded from a coronet of pearls. She carried a bouquet of white stephanotis and red roses.

Mrs. David Ohlien of Minneapolis, a friend of the bride, was the matron of honor. She wore a ballerina length gown of pink chiffon.  It featured a hanky type skirt and bateau neckline.  She had matching accessories and carried a white lace basket of white chrysanthemums. She wore a flowered headpiece.

Larry Gallion of Spring Lake Park, Minn., served his brother as bestman. Darrel Lindow, brother of the bride, and Paul Engstrom, a friend, both of Minneapolis, were ushers.

Fred Liebengood, accompanied by Miss Leah Rogers sang, "I’ll Love You for a Million Years" and "The Wedding Prayer."

After the ceremony on June 16 a reception was given for about 150 guests. After a wedding trip through northern Wisconsin, Minnesota and the Dakotas, the newlyweds are at home at 2316 Gerard Ave. S., Minneapolis.

The bride attended Neillsville High School and for the past year and a half has been employed in Minneapolis. Her husband, a graduate of Isle High School, Isle, Minn., is employed at national Biscuit Company of Minneapolis as a maintenance man.
