October 2

1949: "Attended 7:30 High Mass according to our special intention.  Father Alphonse Wagner Mass offered for us by Mary Ann as an aniversary present.  Auxiliary Bishop Grellinger confers the sacrament of Confirmation at St. Vincents this afternnon.  Thres is sponsor for Arlene (Donald's wife).  Six 4th Degree Knights serve as Honor Guard for the Bishop.  My first experience as such.  Donald - Arlene are over for supper.  They take Mary Ann to the Mode and I work the evening." [from A.E. Potter's diaries]
1950: "Carl and Margaret Radamski are at the airport Milwaukee to meet us at 4 A.M.  It was good of them. (Note: A.E. and Thres were returning from a pilgrimage to Rome and other European sites.) ... Home Sweet Home." [from A.E. Potter's diaries]
