The names of many individuals may never grace a neon bordered marquee, but such is not the case for a local couple with plans for an upcoming wedding.

Lenhartsville resident Wayne Kistler contrived an idea of proposing to his fiancée by utilizing the marquee outside of the Hamburg Strand theater one day while looking at the upcoming movie. On Dec. 19, after theater operator Louise Miller had placed the message on the board, Kistler’s plan came to fruition and he popped the question to his fiancée, Kutztown resident Sharon Toth,

“I guess every girl wants to be proposed to wants something special done,” said Kistler, 45, who works as a welder/supervisor at Hale Trailer in Allentown. “I knew she wanted something done a little special, so somewhere out of a hair brain in my head I just thought it would be pretty neat if it was on the marquee there.“
