16 Aug 1952
Mrs. Marion Wasson Jr. of Cheyenne, Wyo. is here for the wedding of Miss Pat Smith and is visiting with the Marion Wasson Srs and her parents, Mr. and Mrs. F. E. Delzell. She plans to return Monday to Cheyeen, where her husband is stationed at the Francis Warren Air Force Base.

The Wassons may have lost a child. Fred Delzell's obituary says he has five granchildren, but they were not named. When Mabel Delzell died in 2000, her four grandchildren were named, only one of which was a Wasson. I believe that Bobbie's sister Betty had only three children.
