Edna C. Rebhuhn
June 13, 1927 ~ April 18, 2019 (age 91)

Edna C. Rebhuhn, age 91, of Albert City, Iowa, passed away peacefully on Thursday, April 18, 2019, at the Buena Vista Regional Medical Center in Storm Lake with her family at her side.

The sixth daughter of John and Martha (Sievers) Lullmann, Edna Clara Lullmann was born on June 13, 1927. Baptized on July 3, 1927, and confirmed on April 6, 1941, at Zion Lutheran Church in rural Storm Lake, she attended Zion Parochial School through the eighth grade and then helped on the farm and worked for neighbors taking care of children and doing housework. On February 12, 1950, she married Raymond E. Rebhuhn of Albert City at Zion Lutheran Church. Subsequently, they were blessed with two children: Susan and Douglas.

Edna enjoyed gardening and helping on the farm. She and her sister, Tillie Bartels, worked together doing interior painting and wallpapering for many years. Ray and Edna enjoyed trips to Arizona and Washington D.C. They also enjoyed traveling to Las Vegas to watch the Albert City Mill slow-pitch softball team. A lifelong member of Zion Lutheran Church and a member of the Zion Ladies Aid Society and the Quilting Group, Edna along with Ray enjoyed many years of dancing together. Nonetheless, Ray preferred the foxtrot whereas Edna enjoyed a good polka. Edna deeply loved her four grandchildren: Cal, Tawnee, Brittny and Brady. Very proud of them, she was always ready to play a rousing card game of Up and Down the River whenever they came to town.

After Ray passed away in 1996, Edna continued to live on the farm for two more years before moving into Albert City where she had made her home for the past twenty years.

She is survived by her children: Susan (Darrel) Schnetter and Douglas (Marcia) Rebhuhn; her grandchildren: Brady (Nelson), Brittny, Cal (Carly), and Tawnee Rebhuhn (Frank); and her sister, Norma Otto, of Albert City, Iowa; as well as by many nieces, nephews, extended family members, and friends.

Edna was preceded in death by her husband, Ray Rebhuhn; her parents; her parents-in-law; her sisters: Hilda (Albert) Hogrefe, Anna (Martin) Hogrefe, Matilda (Vic) Bartels, Lea (Fred) Kreutz, and Arnie Otto; her brother, John (Alura) Lullmann, Jr.; her brothers-in-law: Paul (Vivian) Rebhuhn, Augie (Margie) Rebhuhn, and Robert (Ruth) Rebhuhn.

Funeral services will be held Monday, April 22, 2019, at 10:30 a.m. at Zion Lutheran Church in rural Storm Lake. Burial will follow in the church cemetery. Visitation will take place Sunday, April 21, 2019, from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m. at the Sliefert Funeral Home in Albert City. The Sliefert Funeral Home in Albert City is in charge of the arrangements.
