My maternal grandparents--Theresa and Benjamin Lodie wedding photo
Description:
'This my grandparents' wedding photo. Theresa was 18 when she got married. Benjamin was very romantic and played the mandolin. He died at the age of 42. But Theresa always remembered how he proposed. They were sitting in a swing under the grapevine. Benjamin put the engagement ring in a lemon and proposed. From owning a fruit stand to selling insurance and real estate--he was an entrepreneur and left college funds for his four children. Pictured: Benjamin Lodie and Theresa Lodie.'
