Nancy and Swend Trefethen

Nancy and Swend Trefethen were married October 3rd, 1947 in Minneapolis, Minnesota by the Reverend Tyner in his Episcopal church.

They celebrated their 60th wedding anniversary on October 3, 2007 with a quiet dinner at home. They ate at home because they are both good cooks and they got a great buy on king crab legs and tenderloin steaks.

On Memorial Day this year they had a big family gathering at the club house at Woodcrest Estates to honor the couple’s 80th birthdays and their 60th anniversary.

All their five children were there with the appropriate spouses and the 10 grandchildren and the four great grandchildren, as well as many friends.

Their wedding invitation read: Mr. and Mrs. Clinton William Sackett request the honor of your presence at the marriage of their daughter Nancy Elizabeth to Mr. Swend Andrew Trefethen on Friday evening, October the third at eight o-clock at Saint Luke’s Episcopal Church in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Reception immediately following the ceremony in the church parlor.
