Branch 21 IN MEMORIAM It is with deep sorrow that we an­nounce the sudden death of Mrs. August Habodasz, nee Irma Czepper, wife of the President of St. Stephen’s Branch 21, on Thursday, August 24, 1950. Friends were received at Stephen Szabo’s funeral chapel where Joseph Danish, Manager, paid final tribute, on behalf of the membership of Hr. 21, to the deceased who had been a Verhovay member of exemplary de­votion for 42 years and whose kind­ness to her fellowmen will always be remembered by the membership of Branch 21 as well as all American Hungarians in Youngstown. Funeral ceremonies were held on Monday, August 28th, at St. Ste­phen’s Roman Catholic Church with the Rev. Father Vaskó and two as­sistants officiating. Attendance at the ceremonies was exceptionally large and those present were deeply impressed by the beauty of the arrangements made by funeral director Stephen Szabó. The blessed memory of the late Mrs. Habodasz will be cherished by the entire membership of Branch 21 on whose behalf I extend my deepest sympathy to her bereaved husband and his family.

Edsel, Southwest Detroit, members of Branch 36. “The light, gay spirit typical of summer was reflected Saturday at the wedding of Lillian Tremble to Donald McLellan,” commented the ‘Ecorse Enterprise,’ describing the wedding. The bride chose a gown of nylon and Chantilly lace, while her attendants wore gowns of marquisette in pastel shades of yellow, orchid and green. The bridal gown was fashioned with a bodice of nylon over satin, V- neekline, lace yoke and long fitted sleeves. The full skirt was fashioned with tiers of Chantilly lace starting at the waist and extending into a long train. A crown of orange blossoms held in place her fingertip veil of illusion, edged in matching lace, and she carried roses and lily-of-the-valley, centered with orchids, in her bouquet. The bridegroom is the son of Mr. and Mrs. James McLellan, of 13142 Schoolcraft, Detroit. Attending the bride were Mrs. Charles Conti, matron-of-honor, in yellow marquisette with talisman roses; Germaine Marcis, as maid-of-honor, in orchid marquisette with white roses, and Annette Cantine, as bridesmaid, in green marquisette with yellow roses. A basket of mixed daises was carried by Maureen Tremble, flower girl, who was gowned in aqua marquisette. The rings were carried to the altar by Thaddeus McManus, while Jerry McLellan was his brother’s best man, and ushers were Jack McLellan, another brother, and Charles Conti. Three hundred guests congratulated the newlyweds at an evening recep­tion in Detroit, before the new Mr. and Mrs. left for their honeymoon trip to the East.
