Uncle Bob's Marriages
In the Vol. IV, Iss. 29 I had Uncle Bob's marriage announcement of his first wife, Helen Louise Soper, that was just another romance during WWII, racing to the altar before they get sent overseas to War. That first marriage of the heart took place 1 June 1944. Uncle Bob and Aunt Helen were divorced 22 June 1948.
Uncle Bob & Aunt Felicia, Wed, 21 June 1950 -- "Mariam Felicia Monfort, MD, Entering on the arm of her father down a stairway decorated with garlands of English ivy, pink mums, daisies, asters and plioumoses the bride was very lovely in an imported Chantilly lace over Dutchess satin and silk illusion dress with a fitted bodice, Peter Pan collar of lace embroidered with seed pearls, and tiny lace covered buttons that closed the bodice and pointed sleeves. The gathered skirt extended into an aisle wide cathedral train. Her veil of silk illusion was held with a turban covered with satin petals and pearls. To complete her ensemble she wore white satin opera pumps. Her bridal bouquet was of orchids tied with satin."
Toni Monfort, sister of the bride, was bridesmaid and she wore a full-length dress of mousseline de Soie worn over pink taffeta with embroidered detail on the collar and pockets. In her hair was a bandeau of pink tinted flowers and she carried an arm bouquet of pink roses and white satin slippers. Dr. Helen Wallace, formerly of Enid, was maid of honor. Her gown was of embroidered organza and net over green taffeta. Her bandeau was of chartreuse tinted flowers. She carried an arm bouquet of yellow roses.
The flower girl, Monet Monfort, another sister of the bride, wore a French blue mousseline de Soie over blue taffeta made with a basque bodice with bouffant skirt.
