Spiegel, Virginia Ann (14 June 1980)

With her father presenting her to the altar, Virginia Ann Spiegel was married to Joseph Timothy Edom in Saturday evening, June 14, Neillsville ceremonies. The Rev. Norman W. Lindloff officiated at the St. John’s Evangelical Lutheran Church rites. Parents of the couple are Mr. and Mrs. Robert Spiegel, Rt. 2 Granton, and Mr. and Mrs. Herbert J. Edom, Marion, Indiana.

Nancy Rossman, a sister of the bride from Eau Claire, was matron of honor. Mark Prater, a friend of the groom from Greentown, Indiana was best man. Ushering were Eugene Spiegel of Granton and Gary Spiegel of Neillsville, both brothers of the bride.

The bride was attired in an empire-style gown of silk organza, trimmed with Chantilly lace and featuring a Queen Anne’s neckline, bishop sleeves and skirt sweeping to a chapel tarin. Her Chantilly lace-edged veil was of fingertip length, and she carried a bouquet of long-stemmed white and yellow roses, baby’s breath and greenery. Her matron of honor wore a sea-green, three-tiered gown with split capelet sleeves. She carried a bouquet similar to the bride’s.

Mrs. Pau Tess was a vocal soloist at the wedding and was accompanied by Mrs. Melvin Nemitz.

Following the service, a buffet supper was held at St. John’s School which was followed by a reception at the home of the bride’s parents. The couple left on a wedding trip to the Great Smokey Mountains and Tennessee. They will make their home in Boston, Massachusetts.

The bride is a Neillsville High School graduate, earned a bachelor’s degree in secondary education in 1976 from UW-Eau Claire and a master’s in education from Purdue University. She will be seeking employment as a high school guidance counselor or in university student personnel services in the Boston area. The groom holds a degree in nuclear engineering from Purdue and is employed by the Stone and Webster Engineering Corporation of Boston.
