Sentimental Sunday: Bob and Lorrie, June 1953

Below is a photograph taken in June 1953 of my uncle, Paul Robert "Bob" Pape Jr. (1926-2008), and his fiancée, Dolores "Lorrie" Frances Olker (1929-2005), sometime shortly after the June 13, 1953 double wedding of Bob's sisters Rose Mary "Moe" Pape Dietz (1931-2007) and Marilyn Electa "Beete" Pape Hedger, in which Bob (and my dad, Fred) were either ushers or groomsmen.



The photo above was cropped out of the photo below, which was taken at 2093 West Lunt Avenue in Chicago, Illinois.  This is a Kodachrome slide I found in the study of my late father, Frederick Henry Pape (1929-2017).  I'm not sure who the woman at the top of the stairs (which go into the back part of the house) is.  It's not Beete nor Moe, and it's not my mother, who was not present at this wedding, as she and my dad had only recently met.
