Toulouse, Susan A. (Marriage – 7 June 1975)

Marriage vows were exchanged Saturday, June 7, at Burr Oak Lutheran Church, Burr Oak, by Miss Susan A. Toulouse of Neillsville and Ronald L. Kramer of Mindoro. The Rev. Marcus Albrecht officiated at the 2 p.m. ceremony, which was followed by a reception in the church parlors.

Parents of the couple are Mr. and Mrs. Robert Toulouse, Rt. 1 Buckingham, Ia., and Mr. and Mrs. Merlin Kramer, Mindoro.

The bride appeared in an empire-waist gown of bridal knit fashioned with a lace and daisy bodice, long sleeves and a gathered skirt. Her floor length veil was trimmed with lace. Peach carnations and white tea roses formed her bouquet.

Bridal attendants were Mrs. Beverly Moore, Zuni, N.M., as matron of honor and Mrs. Patricia Schleifer and Miss Cathy Schleifer, Neillsville, as bridesmaids. Their empire-waist peach knit gowns, feathering floral sheer bodice styling and long sleeves, were complimented by wide brimmed white lace hats with daisy lace and ribbon trim. They carried baskets filled with peach and white carnations.

Armin Kramer, Mindoro, served as bestman and Richard Schleifer and James Schleifer, Neillsville, were groomsmen. Russell Schleifer, Melrose, and David Toulouse, Waverly, Ia., acted as ushers.

The bride was honored at a prenuptial shower given by Mrs. Patricia Schleifer and Mrs. Jean Short.

A graduate of the Hawkeye Institute of Technology, Waterloo, Ia., the new Mrs. Kramer is a licensed practical nurse. Her husband, who graduated from Melrose-Mindoro High School, is engaged in farming.

The couple will live in Mindoro.
