Perot 50th Wedding Anniversary Celebration
After "Cocktails and Caviar" on the porch, guests were seated for dinner and were treated to a surprise visit from the Dallas Symphony Chorus, under the direction of David R. Davidson, as the first course was being served. The mini concert ended with a snappy rendition of "Happy Anniversary" to Mr. and Mrs. Perot.
Family and Friends were treated to an evening of fine dining and dancing to the eloquent tunes of The Bob Hardwick Sound, a thirteen piece Orchestra from New York.
One of the highlights of the evening was the cutting of the cake, an exact replica of the couple's wedding cake, fifty years prior, of which Mr. Perot was quoted saying, as they departed from their original reception, "That was good cake!"
Special thanks goes to Mrs. Karl Rathjen and her three delightful sisters for this wonderful opportunity.
