Mr. and Mrs. Wilbert Brenon,

their 50th wedding anniversary
at a dinner Saturday in
the Apple Grove Inn, Medina.
Their children and grandchildren
were hosts at the affair.
Mr. Brenon and his wue, the
former Vera Hoffman, were
married Sept. 30, 1916, in St.
Francis of Assisi Church, Tonawanda.
The late Rev. Bachman
officiated.
Before his retirement Mr. Brenori
was a cattle dealer. He now'
turns his attention to gardening
and a flourishing vegetable garden
and his rose beds, ieaturing
many varieties of blooms, are
his "pride and joy." He and
Mrs. Brenon take an active interest
in the doings of their family.
Mrs. Brenon for relaxation
"loves to play solitaire."
Their children are:
Mr. and Mrs. Frank (Cora)
Belisario of Detroit, who were
unable to attend; Mr. and Mrs.
John (Rita) Ward, Eggertsville;
Mr. and Mrs. Wilbert Brenon Jr.,

Because of the death of Leo
Brenon, Mr. Brenon's brother,
who had been his best man 50
years ago, the dinner party
planned for several weeks was
limited to family guests. Mr.
Brenon's sister, the late Mrs.

of honor.
Carnat'ons and philodendron
formed the centerpiece for the
dinner party. A three-tiered,
white wedding cake accented
with gold decorations was cut to
