Effie Fish Sherbonda was born in Allamakee county, December 16, 1906. She was the second daughter born to George and Dora Fish. Effie was a graduate of the Decorah High School and a school teacher for six year.

Effie and her daughters, Ruth and Helen, operated the Luana Rest Home for seven years caring for the elderly. Failing health caused her to retire to her country home north of Luana in 1969. Effie was baptized as one of Jehovah's Witnesses in 1950 at New York City, New York. She was active in sharing in the work of the Witnesses.

Effie died at her home north of Luana, October 31, 1977, following a lingering illness.
