On July 12th, 1961, my Aunt Dian Marcella Erickson married Floyd Nick Skaff Risk Nassif Nicola Attiyeh Boutrous (Abu Dakken) at the Church of Christ Episcopal Church in Las Vegas, Nevada. They stayed in Las Vegas for their honeymoon and returned to Bismarck in early August, and very soon began to raise a family.

Floyd worked as a real estate broker (Floyd Boutrous Realty) and managed the family property in Bismarck and Mandan, North Dakota. Dian and Floyd have five sons, Allan Frank, Nick Floyd, Steven Philip, Micheal Joseph and Attas and presently have six grandchildren.

The photograph below was taken in early 1961. It presents a gorgeous Dian and a suave Floyd enjoying an evening at the Havana Club in Mandan, North Dakota.
