Pflughoeft, Patricia Ann (Marriage - 11 February 1967)

Miss Patricia Ann Pflughoeft, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Leo Pflughoeft of Rt. 2 Neillsville, became the bride Saturday of Kenneth H. Keller of Minneapolis, Minn., son of Mr. and Mrs. Herbert Keller of Neillsville, in a double ring ceremony in the United Church of Christ in Neillsville. Performing the ceremony was the Rev. W. C. Koehler.

As the bride entered the church with her father, she was attired in a floor length sheath of delustered satin in candlelight, fashioned with long, tapered sleeves and a bateau neckline. Appliqués of re-embroidered Chantilly lace graced the front of the gown and highlighted the cut-away overskirt sweeping into a chapel train. Her bouffant veil was secured to a queen’s crown of lace and pearls. She carried a crescent bouquet of white chrysanthemums and stephanotis, entwined with ivy and centered with a white orchid.

Mrs. David Pietenpol of Altoona was her sister’s matron of honor. Her bridesmaid was Mrs. Kenneth Christie of La Crosse. The gold dress of the matron of honor and the willow green dress of the bridesmaid were floor length of peau crystal fashioned with elbow length sleeves and scoop necklines. A back panel, topped by a rose, highlighted the dome skirt of each. Open pillbox hats held their sheer veils. Each carried a crescent bouquet of bronze chrysanthemums entwined with ivy.

James Keller of Neillsville attended his brother as bestman. Groomsman was Kenneth Christie of La Crosse. Usher s were Lewis Grap and Devere Krejci.

Miss Eileen Zank, organist, was accompanist for Mrs. W. C. Koehler as she sang the wedding songs.

The bride, a graduate of the Neillsville High School, has been employed in the First National Bank in Neillsville. Mr. Keller is a computer programmer in Minneapolis, Minn., where they are residing.
