In a 7 p.m. ceremony on Saturday, May 24, 1975 Sheryl Ann Decker, Unity, became the bride of Glen Roger Cole, son of Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Cole, Route 2, Colby.

Pastor Robin Fink and Pastor Ronald Schultz performed the ceremony at Zion Lutheran Church, Colby. Mrs. Howard Rannow was the organist and Linda Schultz was the soloist.

Given in marriage by her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Virgil Decker, the bride chose a full tiered gown of Chantilly lace, accented with a chapel train. Her fingertip veil was attached to a headpiece of Chantilly lace petals. She carried a cascade bouquet of mums surround by miniature carnations, yellow roses and stephanotis.

Mrs. Charles E. Flick, Colby, attended her sister and matron of honor. Bridesmaids were Linda Decker, Unity, sister of the bride, and a friend, Mrs. Jim Zahn, Spencer.

The attendants were dressed in floor length gowns of green and wite dotted Swiss, short puffed sleeved bodices. They wore picture hats with green ribbons and carried colonial bouquets of white mums and green tinted carnations and baby’s breath.

Richard Podevels, Colby, a friend of the bridegroom, was the best man, and groomsmen were Donald Leichtnam, Colby, a cousin of the bridegroom, and his brother, Ken Cole. Dennis Decker and Jack Cole seated the guests.

Following the ceremony a reception, dinner and dance were held at the Sword, Colby.
