My Mom's Wedding Dress Search!

For 40 years, my mom has been saving her wedding dress for me.  For 40 years, it has hung in the rafters of my grandmothers house.  It has never moved, and it has hung in the same dress bag for all these years.  In one, quick, thoughtless act, in less than 1 minute, my mom's wedding dress was taken to Goodwill and donated without the care to call us to see if we would like the dress.

See, my Grandmother has gone to live in a care facility.  She can no longer take care of herself. The person in charge of her house and belongings, took it upon them self to donate everything and anything that was my mothers.  Her childhood games, dresses, toys, and books are all gone!  I am pretty bitter about the whole thing.  I would of loved to of had my mom's stuff to pass down to my children.  I would of like to of had a dress made for my only daughter out of the wedding dress, but now that is not longer an option.

So Ihave started a campaign!  The "FIND MY MOM'S WEDDING DRESS" Campaign!!!!  I posted pictures and details on fb.  I have contacted the Goodwill that it was donated to, and I found out that it was shipped to Marinette, Wi.  I have contacted the warehouse in Marinette, and even had a wonderful friend go there with pictures in hand, to try to locate the dress.  I am determined to get our family heirloom back!  I am determined to show this person that cruelness can be overcome!

The wedding was January 22, 1972, In Sault Ste. Marie Mi.  Also the same town the dress was donated in.  They shipped it to Marinette, Wi, where it could have been distributed to any Goodwill store. Please help me find my mothers dress!

It is an Alfred Angelo.  Size 12 or 14

The dress had lace detail from the neck to the bottom of the dress.

A chapel length train with lace trim and bow at  the mid back.

If you live by a Goodwill, please look for the dress. The Veil was with the dress. I would love to bring this home, where it belongs.
