On June 26 (1948) at 2:00 p.m. Miss Amber Romona Marg, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Elmer A. Marg of Granton, became the bride of Harvey O. Pischer, son of Mr. and Mrs. Oswald Pischer, also of Granton. Zion Lutheran Church in Granton, decorated with roses, peonies, forget-me-nots, orange blossoms, larkspur and sweet Williams, was the scene of the wedding, as 125 guests gathered to watch Miss Marg and Mr. Pischer repeat their marriage vows in the double ring ceremony.

The bride, who was given in marriage by her father, entered the church to the strains of the wedding march from Lohengrin.
