Lois,
My thoughts are with you and your family in this time of saying
your final farewell. I enjoyed visiting with your mom about her
"yesteryears." She had great recall when I visited
her a couple years ago about the Christianson family and their
early roots in the Kenaston area. God Bless her memory!

Mom and Dad,
It is truly the end of an era, but a long and happy one. Gram
was the strongest person I ever knew. I will take so much from
her and Grampa throughout the rest of my life. They lived their
lives with strength, spirit and character that I will always
remember. And they both had such a neat sense of humor: hers
was dry and witty, and his was infectious and child-like. They
also raised an incredible daughter who made them and continues
to make all of us so very proud! I am thinking of you every minute
this morning, and wishing I was there with all of my heart. You
are in our thoughts and prayers, and the kids and Russ send you
their love and a big hug!
We love you both so much,
Anne, Russ, Ben and Hannah
Remember: The Lord is my shepherd. I shall not want. He leadeth
me to lie down in green pastures. Yea, though I walk through
the valley of the shadow of death, he will comfort me.

Dear Mom and Dad,
As I write this, you are celebrating Grandma's life at her memorial
service. My thoughts and prayers are consumed with you and Grandma,
and I wish beyond belief I was there. But, for some reason, God
didn't let that happen, so here we sit in Minnesota, thinking
about you, thinking about Grandma, remembering her life and the
person that she was.
I remember... Grandma continuously picking away at things, and
always ending up with an immaculatetely clean house and tasty,
balanced meals (a gift you inherited, Mom); card games; baseball
and Days Of Our Lives on the TV; Republican values; the best
potato salad on the planet; fishing and swimming in the muddy
Mouse River; nectar; plastic pink flamingos; birthday and Christmas
cards NEVER missed; long, hand-written letters; laughter, love
and so much more.
What a blessing to have shared life with Grandma and Grandpa
over the years! Their love for each other and for us was inspiring
and such a gift. I will miss her dearly, but I rest in the knowledge
that they are together with their Lord in heaven. Praise God
for that.
My love to you today and everyday. May God bless this time as
we close this chapter of our lives.
Valerie and family

We are going to deeply miss Grandma. I rejoice in the fact
that she lived such a long and fruitful life. I have many fond
memories of the Mouse River Park in the sumertime. The laughter
and the fun. Grandpa trying to teach us how to golf and fish
and Grandma entertaining the many friends and relatives that
would vist. It was truly a wonderful time.

From: Connie Martz
I was saddened when I read the Cando paper where your mother
had passed away. She was always such a sharp person and I enjoyed
visiting with her. I visited with her a year ago in the Kenmare
nursing home. She remembered me and was still quite the lady!!
I will be giving a memorial in her memory to the Cando Community
Library. You have my sincere sympathy. Connie
