Devine, Cynthia Marie (4 SEP 1971)

At Holy Rosary Catholic Church on Saturday, September 4, 1971 at three o'clock in the afternoon, Miss Cynthia Marie Devine, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Peter Devine, Owen (Clark Co., Wis.), and Rodney Harlan Quelle, son of Mrs. Dora Quelle, Withee (Clark Co.), were united in matrimony. Officiating was the Rev. George Becker, when the bride was given in marriage by her father.

The bride was attired in an empire style gown of peau de soi, with embroidered lace sleeves, featuring a stand up ruffled collar. She carried a bouquet of pink tipped daisies. Daisies were also repeated in her crown, to which her veil was attached, ending in a train.

Attending the bride as maid of honor was Miss Jody Pawlak, cousin of the bride, from Thorp, with three other bridesmaids, her sister, Lynda Devine, Sheila Stewart and Gayle G. Jarvis, Withee. They were identically dressed in gowns of mint green, empire styled, with long sleeves of sheer nylon chiffon, and carried long stem pink roses. In their hair they were tiny pink roses.

Attending the groom as best man was Daniel Jankee, with groomsmen, George Wilson, Jack Barager, and David Devine. Their tux featured bell bottomed trousers, long jackets and ruffled French shirts.

Following the wedding a reception dinner was held at the Meadowview Country Club to over 200 guests.
