Glendiva “Glenny” Danielson, 79, Carpio, died Tuesday, December 6, 2011 in a Minot hospital.

Glendiva M. “Glenny” Flaten was born August 16, 1932 in Carpio, ND, to Lars and Anna (Erickson) Flaten.  She was raised and attended school in Carpio, and was baptized and confirmed at St. John’s Lutheran Church in Carpio.  Glenny grew up with ten brothers and sisters and was known to be a little mischievous at times.

On February 12, 1950, Glenny married Maryls Danielson at St. John’s Lutheran Church in Carpio.  Following their marriage they lived a short time in Carpio, Bismarck and Minot, and then moved to the farm northeast of Carpio, where they raised their family.  Glenny also helped her husband with the farming operation and always had a big meal ready for family and friends when they would stop by to visit.  In later years she enjoyed working at Northern Livestock Exchange and then Behm’s Truckstop as a waitress.

Glenny remained active throughout her life and together with her husband Maryls were avid bowlers and bowled for numerous years in the Minot league.  They also enjoyed golfing and making an occasional trip to the casino.  Glenny was active in quilting at the Carpio Lutheran Church.  She enjoyed gathering with friends with the Carpio Birthday Club, and playing Bridge at the Carpio Senior Center.   She loved to bake and was a great cook and made some of the best lefse around.
 
Her biggest joy in life was her family.  Glenny and Maryls did everything together and had many good times, many laughs and many good memories made.  She dearly loved her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren and enjoyed attending their sporting events and cherished the time spent with them.  Glenny was a wonderful lady, who will be deeply missed.
