 | Anniversary- Rezac, Ernest and Martha Martha and Ernest
Rezac
Ernest and Martha Rezac of Silver Lake will observe their 50th wedding anniversary with a family dinner today.
Ernest Rezac and Martha Wood were married Dec. 13,1952, in Rossville.
Their children are David and Vicki Rezac, Delia; Janice and Dennis Prior, Rossville; and the late Nancy Dickerson.
They have six grandchildren and one great-grandson.
The couple are semi-retired from farming.
Ernest and Martha Rezac, married 50 years, met when Martha was in first grade and Ernest was in third grade in the one-room Twin Rose School north of Rossville.
They dated during Martha’s junior and senior years in high school. Martha graduated in 1952, and they married on Dec. 13,1952. One month later, Ernest left to serve in Korea for two years. Since then, “not many nights did we ever spend apart,’’ Ernest said.
“We’ve had a really good marriage,” he said. “Except for the loss of our daughter, everything has gone pretty smoothly.”
Ernest attributes their happy marriage to hard work. “We’ve both farmed our whole lives, and she’s helped me a lot,” he said. “I think that’s probably it. Maybe that’s why we never fought — we were too tired to fight," he added with laughter.
