Hennlich, Mr. / Mrs. Anthony (Gold – 25 SEP 1971)

Mr. and Mrs. Anthony Hennlich, Owen, celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary on September 25, 1971.

A reception for approximately 200 guests and relatives was held at St. Paul’s Lutheran Church, Curtiss. At the dinner for the immediate family held at the Florena Supper Club, Medford, a dinner prayer was led by the couple’s grandson, Terry Wanke. Judy Edwards, their granddaughter, read “memories” for each of the family.

Members of the original wedding party, Mrs. Lem (Rosalie Merwin) Loucks, sister of the bride, Abbotsford, and Mr. Joseph Hennlich, brother of the groom, Dorchester, attended the celebration.

Mr. and Mrs. Hennlich are the parents of three children, Mrs. Orlyn (Evelyn) Wanke, Milwaukee; Mrs. George (Jean) Edwards, Stetsonville; and Mrs. Harry (Emily) Elert, Milwaukee. They have eleven grandchildren and one great-granddaughter.

The grandchildren provided a gorgeous bouquet of 11 yellow roses, and the great-grandchild presented a white rose.
