Krucker, Verna (Marriage - 24 Oct. 1942)

At high noon on Saturday, marriage vows were exchanged between Miss Verna Krucker, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Leonard Krucker, of Unity, and Clarence Schultz, son of Mr. and Mrs. George Schultz, of Abbotsford, Wis. The Rev. J. Brandt read the marriage service in Christ Evangelical church.

For the occasion, the bride chose a white brocaded taffeta gown, trimmed with two floral ornaments from her mother’s bridal gown. She also wore a necklace of pearls which belonged to her mother. The short veil was fastened to a tiara of flowers and rhinestones. The bride carried an all white bouquet of pompons.

Attending her were Miss Lucille Schultz, sister of the groom, as maid of honor; Mrs. Carl Fischer, Colby, another sister of the groom and Mrs. Earl Krucker of Sturgeon Bay, sister-in-law of the bride. They wore taffeta gowns of aqua, blue and peach, respectively, with ornamental braid and flowers to match their frocks in their hair.
