olden Wedding
Large Affair.
Sundav evening, Oct. 23. in the
Adventut auditorium on Military
and Umpqua, more than 200 rela
tives and friends attended a recep
tion given by the son and three
daughters of Mr. and Mrs. Clar
ence Monroe in honor of their gold
en wedding anniversary.
The large two-tiered wedding
cake which graced the lace-covered
table was decorated in while
and gold and topped with the tra
ditional bride and bridegroom with
a gold "50" above them. The
bride's dress was of gold satin.
Large bouquets of gold and bronze
chrysanthemums and a large gold
"50" decorated the long table on
which were arranged a large as
sortment of refreshments carrying
out an autumn color scheme. Serv
ing beverages were Mrs. Elton Han
sen and Mrs. Vernon Perry. Mrs.
Lcsta Kollett and Mrs. Edythe Lan
dis served the wedding cake.
On a smaller table stood a gold
tree on which were hung 50 gold
foil wrapped silver dollars a gift
from the Munroe children.
, A short program, presented after
refreshments had been served, fea
tured two songs written by Mr.
Munroe. One, sung by. Mrs. Dan
Blehm, used the melody and theme
of the familiar "Because." The
other, sung by Phil Wildt, was one
that Mr. Munroe wrote 25 years
ago for a golden anniversary song.
Mrs. Lloyd Bird accompanied both
soloists on the organ. Mrs. Othol
Cook presented one of her famous
scrap books in which she had de
picted many highlights in the Mun
roe family history, both before
and after their marriage. The Mun
roes' only son, Dr. A, B. Munroe,
Roseburg physician, assisted by
his sister. Miss Buth Munroe, act
ed as narrator for a series of
screen nictures showine many plac
es of special interest because oi
their connection with the Jamuy
stiirv.
Clarence Munroe, uie oldest oi a
family of 11 children, was born on
the island of Bermuda in 1887 in
the home of the very first beventn-
day Adventists on the island.
He later went to Haiuax, wova
Scotia, where he met Martha May
Rnrnes. theAvouneest in a family
of 13 childreh. Thev were married
in Halifax Oct. 20. laiu, men
went to Bermuda where they lived
for one year. Beturning to the U.S.
and Canada Mr. Munroe turned
to a number of activities to pro
vide a livine and a Christian educa
tion for his family. He has acted
as an insurance salesman, as. a
literature evangelist, has served in
the medical corDS of the Canadian
Armv. even ODeraled a "floating
general store and fix-It shop" on
the river at N.W. Harbor, Nova
Scotia. But the greatest love of
Mr. and Mrs. Munroe, m addition
to rearing their family, has been
that of caring for those who were
ill, a work still being carried on by
Mr. Munroe as a physical tnera'
pist at the Roseburg Aledical-Den
tal Clinic.
The Munroes built a rest home
at Athol, Mass., which has since
become a hospital. The family had
its ups and downs. At one time
they lost all they had except their
family and a strong faith that God
would see them through. Undaunt
ed, they went to Florida and again
opened treatment rooms. Later
they spent two years in Jamaica in
the same type of medical-missionary
work. Returning to Florida
they built another place of refuge
for those who needed help but not
hospitalization, it was while there
that Mrs. Munroe, who had worked
with her husband as fa practical
nurse, found that type fit work no
longer possible for hqr. In 1952
they decided to come to Roseburg
to be near their doctor-son. They
have' lived here since except for
nearly two years spent in Portland
during Dr. Munroe s term of serv
ice with the U.S. Air Force.
Mr. and Mrs. Munroe had five
children then found another little
girl whom they learned- to love
enough to secure her for their own
by adoption. These are Miss Ruth
Munroe, a registered nurse, who is
teaching a special course in nurs
ing at Pacific Union College at
Angwin, Calif.; Mrs. Rolf (Faith)
l.inilfors. of Mannsfield Center,
Conn.: Mrs. John (Hope) Prince,
registered nurse, living at Prine
vilfe; Mrs. Floyd (Meredith) M al
ula of Roseburg; the late Mrs.
Wayne (Nevada) Bidwell; and Dr.
A. B. Munroe. local physician.
There are 14 grandchildren
Marilyn Munroe. a student nurse
at the College of Medical Evangel
isle at 1-oma Linda, Calif.: her sis
ter, Cheryl, and her brother, Den
nis, children of Dr. and Mrs. A. B.
Munroe; Deborah Munroe, adopt
ed daughter of Miss Ruth Munroe;
Janica, Margaret, Carol and Kalhy
Prince, daughters of Mr. and Mrs.
John Prince (Janice is a student

and Mrs. Floyd Matula: Ruth and
Harvey Bidwell of South Lancast
er. Mass., children of Wayne Bid
well and the late Mrs. Bidwell;
and Danny Lindfors, small son of
Pastor and Mrs. Rolf Lindfors. .All
were present for the celebration
except Marilyn Munroe and Ruth
and Harvey Bidwell.
Mrs. Munroe's mother was a
twin and she was' also a twin. The
Munroes have twin daughters
Faith and Hope and also have 4-year-old
twin granddaughters
Karen and Kim Matula.
Out-of-town guests included Bet
ty Peterson, who is taking the spe
cial nursing course under Ruth

friend of the family from Athol,
Mass., (her home is now at Calais,
Maine), and Irene Kessinger who
