Description

Married couple Maude (Allmand) and John H. Halvorsen, surrounded by their three grown children: William "Bill", Robert "Bud", and Alta. The men wear suits and boutonnieres, while the women wear dresses and corsages. They stand behind a decorated table that holds displayed forks, plates, two candles, food, and a three tiered cake. A cake decoration balances on the top of the cake: a circle with the number 50 inside. This image is likely of Maude's and John's fiftieth wedding anniversary.

Left to right: William "Bill" Halvorsen, Alta (Halvorsen) Deevers, Maude (Allmand) Halvorsen, John H. Halvorsen, and Robert "Bud" Halvorsen (Lovetinsky et al., p. 105).
