THIS IS CRAIG SCHROEDER AND HIS FIANCE' MARIA. THEY MET AT MY 61 DRIVE-IN
THEATRE 3 YEARS AGO AND HAVE BEEN TO THE DRIVE-IN OFTEN SINCE THEN.
CRAIG EMAILED ME A COUPLE WEEKS AGO AND SAID HE WAS GOING TO PROPOSE
TO MARIA AT THE DRIVE-IN. AND THIS HAPPENED THIS PAST FRIDAY NIGHT AROUND 8:30. HE HAD ARRANGED FOR THE FLOWERS TO BE DELIVERED TO KMAQ DURING THE DAY AND I TOOK THEM OUT FRIDAY NIGHT. SEVERAL PATRONS SAW HIM GET ON HIS KNEE IN FRONT OF CAR AND PROPOSE TO MARIA .....SHE SAID YES. LATER AT CONCESSION STAND WHEN I TOOK THIS PHOTO, MARIA STILL HAD TEARS IN HER EYES. NOTE THE SPECIAL SHIRT THEY ARE WEARING THAT THEY HAVE HAD FOR A COUPLE YEARS AND WEAR EVERYTIME THEY VISIT THE 61 DRIVE-IN THEATRE. THEY WERE BOTH HAPPY. SHE IS FROM DYERSVILLE AND GOES TO ST. AMBROSE UNIVERSITY AND HE IS FROM KIELER, WISCONSIN AND WORKS FOR A CREAMERY IN DUBUQUE AND TO COLLEGE AT WHITEWATER. NO WEDDING PLANS YET. NICE COUPLE. LAST MARRIAGE PROPOSALS (2) AT THE DRIVE-IN (NONE LAST YEAR) WERE IN 2007. NO MARRIAGE OUT THERE YET.
