Mrs. Fleming baby-sat many children while her children were small, then went to work for the Bellevue School System for 10 years in the cafeteria. She worked at the former Bellevue General Electric Lamp Plant until its closing and then was employed by Huron Products, in Bellevue; Pepperidge Farms, in Willard; and Prepared Foods, Sandusky, before retiring from Sandusky Plastics in 1997.
The couple invite their friends, family and neighbors to join them at the 4 p.m. vow renewal service at Bellevue Alliance Church, 1001 Monroe St., and the open house which will follow from 4-7 p.m. at the church. The omission of gifts is requested.
