The Wedding, a detail from The Gatherings (Early 1900s)

by Doug Driediger, Calgary

Shown above is a single panel from the multi-panel mural, The Gatherings (Early 1900s), painted on the side of Memorial Composite High School. This panel shows Bill and Bertha Barth (née Kulak) on their wedding day in 1925. The Barths came from Plumas, Manitoba, and settled in Stony Plain in 1908, when Bill was still a boy. Bill founded a car dealership, and was active in local government, and both were active in community organizations.
