Here are more reasons to set off fireworks this weekend. Saturday, July 5, is Aunt Katie and Uncle John Kirkwood's 56th wedding anniversary, and Sunday, July 6, is Kate's 78th birthday. (The youngest of Claus and Maria Sprick's brood, Katherine Mary Sprick was born July 6, 1930 at the L-shaped farmhouse near West Albany, Minn.) Congrats, Kate and John! We love you! Cousin Sandy sent these then-and-now photos:
The happy couple on their wedding day, July 5, 1952. Their attendants were Al Kirtz, John's brother-in-law, and Aunt Emma Sprick, both now deceased.
The fresh-faced young couple, well before cousins Sandy, Joe, Jane and Tuck arrived on the scene to enliven their lives.
Charles "John" Kirkwood and Katherine Mary "Kate" Sprick Kirkwood. (FYI, occasionally we put people's full names and formal dates into the blog, which may seem odd to you cousins, since you know who they are, duh, just so it's easier for historians and old friends to Google family members and events.)
