Moberg, Lois (Marriage - 11 May 1968)

Nuptial vows were exchanged Saturday uniting in marriage Lois Moberg, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Elery Moberg of Rt. 3 Greenwood, and James Becker, son of Mr. and Mrs. Delbert Becker of Rt. 1 Greenwood. The 12:30 p.m. double ring ceremony was performed by the Rev. Msgr. Norbert King in St. Anthony’s Catholic Church in Loyal. Bouquets of white gladioli were place near the altar.

The bride entered the church with her father in a full bouffant gown, styled with a Watteau train of silk bombazine, lace trimmed with hand sewn sequins and pearls. A crystal borealis crown held her elbow-length veil. She carried a bouquet of pink roses and stephanotis, entwined with ivy.

Miss Avis Moberg, the bride’s twin sister, was her maid-of-honor. Bridesmaids were Miss Judie Bremer of Thorp and Mrs. Nathan (June) Noeldner of Loyal. Junior bridesmaids, both nieces of the bride, were Miss Charmaine Horswill of Wisconsin Rapids and Miss Dawn Klapatauskas of Withee. Each was attired in a rainbow-colored, floor-length cage style dress. Their flowers were daisy and carnation bouquets.

Jerome Becker of Greenwood, twin brother of the groom, was his bestman. Groomsmen were Arnold Becker of Greenwood and Nathan Noeldner of Loyal. Ushers were James Horswill of Wisconsin Rapids and Alan Becker of Loyal.

On their return from a wedding trip to Niagara Falls, Mr. and Mrs. Becker will reside on Rt. 1 Greenwood, where the groom is engaged in farming.

The bride, a 1964 graduate of Greenwood High School, has been employed in the home office of Thorp Finance Company in Thorp
