Sischo, Roberta Carol (Marriage - 29 July 1967)

Miss Roberta Carol Sischo, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Sischo of Rt. 1 Neillsville, exchanged nuptial vows at 12 noon Saturday with Jerome Poziombke, son of Mr. and Mrs. Alex Poziombke, of Rt. 1 Neillsville. The Rev. George Nelson officiated at the nuptial high mass and double ring ceremony in St. Mary’s Catholic Church in Neillsville.

Music was furnished by the children’s choir of St. Mary’s. They were accompanied at the organ by Mrs. Glenn Short.

For her wedding, the bride wore a floor length gown styled with a fitted bodice of hand-clipped Chantilly lace that featured a portrait neckline, edged with sequin and seed pearls appliqués. Long sleeves came to a point at the wrists. The A-line skirt of organza-over-taffeta featured an overskirt of Chantilly lace in a redingote effect, forming a chapel train. A crescent waistline, encircled by a narrow organza band, formed a bow at the front center. A forward-looking half-hat of iridescent sequin petals and tiny rosettes trimmed with seed pearls held her bouffant veil of imported English illusion. She carried a cascade arrangement of white miniature carnations, centered with a lavender orchid, with green ivy cascading from the bouquet.

Miss Cheryl Poziombke of Neillsville was maid-of-honor. Bridesmaid was Miss Jan Schmidt of Loyal. The attendants wore lavender floor length gowns, fashioned with fitted bodices, which were encircled with narrow satin bands forming bows and streamers at the back. Bateau necklines and elbow length sleeves were edged with wide ruffles. Their sheath skirts of nylon-over taffeta were highlighted by lace Watteau trains attached to the back shoulderline. Face veils attached that of the bride. Each carried a topiary ball of purple asters trimmed with ivy and lavender streamers.

Neal Sischo, brother of the bride, from Ramstein, Germany, was bestman. Groomsman was Tom Poziombke of Minneapolis, Minn. Ushers were Ronnie Jakobi of Granton and Dennis Evenson of Wausau.

The bride, a graduate of Neillsville High School, has been employed by a transport company in Wisconsin Rapids. The groom, also a graduate of Neillsville High School, is an aircraft mechanic with Delta Airlines in Atlanta, Ga., where they will reside on their return from a wedding trip to Northern Wisconsin.
