Johanna and George Wertwijn, of Bagley, are celebrating their 64th wedding anniversary. They were married on April 28, 1953, in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. They met during ballroom dance class, when they were both 18 years old. George’s nickname was “Beethoven” because of his then plentiful, wavy hair. He was smitten with beautiful Johanna and after a three-year courtship, they were married. They have shared and enjoyed a lifetime of memories, including three children, their spouses and four grandchildren. They enjoy living in this most beautiful area of southwest Wisconsin. For their anniversary, their family will be visiting early and often.
