Wedding Wednesday: Rho, Grandpa, and Mare - June 1953

My grandfather, Paul Robert Pape Sr. (1896-1970), and his two oldest granddaughters, Rosemary "Rho" Jean Streff Grandusky (1949-2016) and Marianne "Mare" Streff, flower girls at the double wedding on June 13, 1953, of Grandpa's youngest daughters, Marilyn "Beete" Electa Pape Hedger to James "Jim" Edward Hedger (1933-2010), and Rose Mary "Moe" Pape Dietz (1931-2007) to Ronald Joseph "Das" Dietz (1931-1994).  This photo was taken outside the wedding location, St. Margaret Mary Catholic Church in Chicago, Illinois.

This image is from a Kodachrome slide I found in the study of my late father, Frederick Henry Pape (1929-2017), and was most likely taken by him.
