Younker, Jean Marie (Marriage - 1 October 1960)

St. Louis’ Catholic Church in Dorchester was the scene October 1 of the wedding of Miss Jean Marie Younker and Dale E. Seidel.  The Rev. Gerald Schuh officiated.

Mr. and Mrs. Leo A. Younker, Dorchester, and Mr. and Mrs. George Seidel of Abbotsford are the parents.  Mr. Younker gave his daughter in marriage. 

For her wedding she wore a lace over-satin-dress, complemented with a shoulder-length veil held to a pearl crown.  The fitted bodice was styled with a scoop neckline and long tapered sleeves. She carried an arrangement of pink and white carnations on a white Bible.

Sisters of the bride and groom were the bridal aides. They were Mrs. Gary Klacke of Dorchester, as matron-of-honor; and Miss Donna Younker of Milwaukee and Kathleen Younker of Pulaski as bridesmaids. 

Attending the groom were Gary Klacke and Douglas Rahn of Milwaukee.  Ushers were Daniel Thompson of Racine and Ed Seidel of Dorchester.

On their return from a wedding trip to North Dakota they will reside in Dorchester.
