Miss Ziemann died Thursday, Aug. 8 at a Des Moines hospital following a six month illness. She had been under medical care since December, 1962, and was a hospital patient several times, both in Des Moines and Rochester, Minn.

She was enrolled in the Van Meter Community school, and completed her junior year in high school last spring. She was active in all school activities.
