I came across this picture today in an Album in the closet. It was taken down at Blacksburg at the time of son Jon and Mary's wedding on June 11, 1977. They had each received degrees the previous weekend from Virginia Tech. This just shows our immediate family (at that time) but the formal wedding included many more. Elaine and My Dad's were both involved which was the only time either of them was dressed formally. It was actually pretty new to several of us. Jon was already an SCS employee and they had a house rented near where he was headquartered. They were off to a good start.
This is the way the men and boys looked that were all dressed formally. I got to wondering how many places Jon and Mary have lived during their 43 years of wedded life. They moved to their current location in 1996 which is probably the longest they ever lived in one place. I don't know of their planning to move after Mary retires. I have suggested they may want to follow our foot-steps and come back to Nebraska but that has never met with very much enthusiasm.
