/ Thursday, August 29, 1963 McCullom Lake JOSEPH CRICKS OBSERVE GOLDEN WEDDING SUNDAY Kvt*\Lieveaqtie A fine example of conjugal bliss, Mattie and Joe Crick will celebrate 50 years of happy, fruitful marriage this Sunday, actual date is Sept. 3. They mark the occasion with festivities for relatives and friends, beginning at 2 p.m. We feel this story is most unusual because the "bride" passed her 63rd birthday on March 15! ' "Groom" Joe turned 70 on July 19. They are fortunate enough to • have four living generations in their immediate family. "" Mattie and Joe were next door neighbors and the year Mrs. Crick turned 11, Joe cast his eye in her direction. JJe pursued her for about IV2 fears, until both sets of parents gave their consent. They were married in Greenville, Ky., and made their first home there. First child, Mrs. Mildred Gibson of Harrisburg, 111., blessed their union. They moved to Indiana for a short bit and Mrs. Nell Abney was THE McHENRY PLAINDEALER other move back to Kentucky resulted in the birth of son, Jay, and Mrs. Wanda Senter. The three youngest chiMren have made their homes locally. The senior Cricks have six grandchildren including Sandy .Senter and Rusty and two great-grandchildren. A course in electricity at Chicago Electric Engineering School caused the family to migrate to that city. Looking for a country place in which to raise their small children, Mattie and Joe discovered McCullom Lake and opened a gas station in 1938. They added a grocery store to their industry and maintained it until 1951 when they sold to Piotrowskis. During this time, they watched the community change from a resort area to a village. Joe is now engaged as an electrical contractor, while Mattie minds her beautiful garden. The two were active members of past community improvement groups and Joe served as treasurer for a time. Then are members of the First Baptist Church of McHenry and will entertain members of the parish for their celebration. These two have been wonderful and productive members of the community in addition to being the finest of neightictfs. We wish them more happiness as they look forward to their diamond anniversary in '88! her attendants were similarly outfitted. They made their home in Crystal Lake where son, Ron, made his appearance. A move to Oak Lawn preceded their making, their home here in 1946, in time for Ron to start kindergarten. During World War II, Bill served with the Army in the European theater. The two have been active participants in all community affairs and civic endeavors. They are members of the V.F.W. and the American Legion. Eleanor was returned to the office of treasurer in this organization. Bill is past commander of the V.F.W., has been active in the Boy Scouts, and is presently serving his third term as trustee of the village. He is finance chairman. This past year saw the birth of their first grandchild, Thomas William, on Nov. 30. We rejoice with Eleanor and Bill on this milestone occasion and wish them even more happiness in the future.

Later in the evening, both mothers, Mrs. Clifford Anderson and Mrs. Bob Loesch, appeared. Other guests were Mrs. Ann Knowles of Chicago and this reporter. The gals played a game spelling as many words as possible from the phrase--Nancy, Ken Married. It was interesting to see the number of combinations conceived. Chrys won the first prize with Mrs. Knowles, second. For the opening of the personal gifts, about to be bridegroom Ken Leosch pulled a hasty departure, but reappeared in time "to pour." Nancy was honored at another shower -- miscellaneous held in Chicago recently. Fifty-two guests were present and at this time, the young couple received most of the gifts necessary to start housekeeping. Plenty of loot!' usual life saving machinations were employed. We are happy these two wee ones and the aunt and mother were checked out in proper procedures and this story ended happily instead of with a tragic outcome.

"Going along for the ride" were Phyll's elder children -- Sandy and Debbie. 'Nuthin' beats exposure to culture at an early age! Some brought lunches and others purchased them at the site.

Another bit of interest was exhibited in the escalators which are quite a novelty to these country bred and raised youngsters! A stop on the way home at one of the better known hamburger "joints" completed an eventful day.
