Kinnick, Barbara Maureen (Marriage – 28 June 1975)
Marriage vows were pledged at St. John’s Evangelical Lutheran Church by Miss
Barbara Maureen Kinnick, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Kinnick, Rt. 1
Neillsville, and Carl Franklin Nemitz, son of Mr. and Mrs. Carl A. Nemitz,
Rt. 2 Neillsville. The Rev. Norman Lindloff officiated at the June 28, 2
p.m. ceremony, followed by a buffet dinner at St. John’s School.
The bride appeared in a soft flowing gown of white Marcaine fashioned with
lace and seed pearl-trimmed bodice and bishop sleeves. A rounded train
flowed from the waistline. As she approached the altar with her father, she
carried a large, old fashioned bouquet of giant Fuji mums, bridal rose,
baby’s breath and sprengeri fern with white satin streamers entwined with
pink rose buds.
Miss Lilian Melin, Willowdale, Ontario, was the maid of honor. Bridesmaids
were Miss Karla Gene Kinnick, sister of the bride, and Mrs. Valerie Kinnick,
sister of the groom. Their flowing A-line gowns of pink galaxy knit were
topped with floral-patterned capes and accented by white accessories. Each
carried a crescent arrangement of Fuji mums, miniature pink roses and
foliage.
Attending the groom were Steve Johnson, Independence, as bestman and
Franklin Gregory of Racine, uncle of the groom, and Warren Kinnick, brother
of the bride as groomsmen. Guests were seated by Theron Otterbacker, Zion,
Il., uncle of the bride, as head usher, and Ronald Kinnick, brother of the
bride, and Rory Schuette, friend of the groom.
Michael Schmidt was the ringbearer and Audra Otterbacker, cousin of the
bride, the flower girl.
Mrs. Janice Mayer sang “O Perfect Love,” “The Wedding Song” and “Lord, Who
at Cana’s Wedding Feast.”
The bride was honored at prenuptial showers given by Mrs. Carl A. Nemitz and
Mrs. Valerie Kinnick at the Nemitz home; Mrs. Marie Kinnick and Miss Karla
Kinnick at the Kinnick home; and by Mrs. Sue Otterbacker, Deidra Kinnick and
Mrs. Bridgette Otterbacker at the home of Mr. Sue Otterbacker in Zion, Il.
The new Mrs. Nemitz is a 1973 graduate of Neillsville High School. Her
husband graduated from the same school in 1969 and from the Madison area
technical college in 1970. He is employed as a master barber in Eau Claire,
where the couple will make their home upon returning from a wedding trip to
Northern Wisconsin and Canada.
