WHITE ROSES AND SWEET PEAS


The following article appeared on the Society Page of the June 1, 1937 edition of the Fort Dodge Messenger:

Northwest Society
Miss Betty Jondle Weds Steve Miklo At Moorland
Special to the Messenger,
  MOORLAND, June 1. A beautiful wedding was solemnized at Our Lady of Good Counsel at 8 o’clock on Monday morning when Miss Betty Jondle became the bride of Steve Miklo. The Reverend Father B. A. Hunt officiated.
  Miss Helen Kolacia and Joseph Kolacia served as attendants.
  The bride wore a white satin dress, ankle length, and a long white veil and carried an arm bouquet of white roses.
  Miss Kolacia wore a lace frock of peach and wore a white picture hat. Her bouquet was of sweet peas.
  The bride is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Ed Jondle.  The groom is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Steve Miklo of Fort Dodge. He is employed at Wasem Plaster Company in Fort Dodge. They will make their home on an acreage near Fort Dodge.

Thanks to Erin (Coppinger) Rossmanith.  Erin is Pauline (Miklo) Ball’s granddaughter.  She found this article when doing genealogical research several years ago.  I have consulted her work while writing this family history.
