Notes:
Memories: by Patricia Beck Hormell
For several years Helen ran a pre-school kindergarten from her home in Englewood, Ohio. She kept the children busy with games, songs and creative activities; interlaced with outdoor playtime and "show and tell". She laughed (and sometimes blushed) at the stories the children would tell and enjoyed teaching them new things. She liked to play cards-especially bridge. Helen and Harry belonged to a card club and often entertained their friends with small dinner parties before the games began. She also liked to read novels, dabbled in ceramics for awhile, and tried a few other crafts-including flower arrangement. Roses and daisies were her favorite flowers. Harry grew roses and she admired them; always having a vase full of buds in the house when they were in bloom. Helen came from a family with roots deep in religion and she carried on the tradition, being a longtime member of Concord United Methodist Church. Helen was a member of Eastern Star and Alpha Rho Tau (an art sorority).

EXCHANGE VOWS BEFORE ALTAR IN XENIA HOME
Miss Helen Louise Lackey Becomes Bride of Harry W. Hormell.
Xenia, March 24—Miss Helen Louise Lackey, daughter of Dr. and Mrs. B. L. Lackey of 20 Home av., became the bride of Harry William Hormell of New Burlington in a pretty ceremony performed at the home of the bride, before 35 guests, Saturday evening.
Preceding the service Miss Lorena Stephens, Port Williams, sang "I love You Truly" and "At Dawning," accompanied by Miss Frances Jack, who played the "Wedding March" from Wagner's "Lohengrin" for the processional.
The double ring service was used by Dr. W. W. Foust, pastor of the First Reformed church, and the vows were exchange before an altar of ferns and palms in front of the living room mantle. Mrs. Claude Krug (Dorothy Lackey) of Englewood, the bride's sister, was matron of honor and wore a gown of chiffon velvet in maroon shade. Her flowers were spring blooms. Jeanette Hormell, small sister of the bridegroom, was a flower girl and little Bobby Lackey, brother of the bride, was ring bearer. Claude Krug served as best man.
An informal reception following the ceremony and a course dinner was served to the guests, 12 being seated at the bride's table. Mr. and Mrs. Hormell left on a motor trip and, on their return, will make their home at 113 W. Monument av., Dayton. Mrs. Hormell is a graduate of Central high school and attended the Dayton Art Institute. Her husband, the son of Mr. and Mrs. Clifford Hormell of New Burlington, graduated from Kingman high school.
