Since Anna was back home she was in charge of organizing the ceremony. She decided to have their wedding in her family’s living room in Swissvale, Pittsburgh. Anna’s sister and parents, along with Allen’s younger brother, sister, and parents attended. Anna chose the unconventional route and wore a little blue dress and did not have any special decorations. Instead of providing cake for guests, Francis and Mary, two family friends, kindly provided lunch for the occasion.
Anna and Allen have now been married for 75 years and he still pulls out the chair for her. Happy anniversary Mr. and Mrs. Clark.
