On Their Way--1954

Julius and Gloria Becker, dashed to their car, a Willys-Overland, to begin their honeymoon.  The couple had just married at Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church earlier in the day.  Behind the pair, you can see the bungalow at 5602 Beechwood Avenue as it looked on November 27, 1954.  John and Hazel Hack lived in that dwelling in the mid-1950s. You can also see the rear of several homes that faced South Audubon Road.

Newlyweds!  Gloria and Julius Becker smile and laugh as they head out for their honeymoon on November 27, 1954. Their car is parked in the driveway of the Becker home at 5621 Beechwood Avenue. Behind the couple, you can see 5602 Beechwood Avenue.
