After the Ceremony


St. George's Parish, Bridgeport, Chicago, May 1953. My friend Nijole's Mom (standing, wearing the fur stole) attends a wedding.

Thanks to Nijole for making this photo available to us.

Again, look how good everyone looks.

Not all of them were well-off probably, but they all made an effort to be presentable.

Partly something from the Old Country, but also pride in themselves.

Funny how we have so many Pride Days and Months and festivals, but take so little pride in ourselves.
