A card shower is planned to honor Merle and Julia Sterling, who will celebrate their 50th wedding anniversary Sunday.
Merle Sterling, son of Alvin “Ace” and Edna Sterling, and Julia Dorris, daughter of Marion and Lena Bell Dorris, were married Nov. 15, 1970, at Humboldt United Methodist Church.
The Sterlings, who live in Humboldt, made their living on the farm. Merle was a farmer, school bus driver for Humboldt USD 258 anda crude oil truck driver. Julia has worked as a farmer and housewife.
They have three children, Kendra Weatherman and her husband, Steve, Colony; Layne Sterling and his wife, Alicia, Humboldt; and Jarred Sterling, Ottawa. The Sterlings also have eight grandchildren.
Due to COVID, the Sterlings’ children are unable to provide them with a celebration they deserve, but are requesting a card shower for the couple. Correspondence may be sent to 608 600 St., Humboldt, KS 66749.
