OSAGE, IOWA - Lars T. Larsen, 63, died Saturday at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Ivan Erickson, Minneapolis, following a heart attack.
Lars T. Larsen was born in Stavanger, Norway, August 8, 1883. He came to America in 1902, going back within a short time for a visit, returning in 1904 to make his permanent home. He began his vocation of manager of a bakery at Story City, where he resided for three years, during which time he was united in marriage with Gundina Tormodson, Story City.
The family lived at Washburn, Wisconsin, for 18 years, at Foley, Minnesota, for five years, at Marshall, Minnesota for three years, then retired for a year, coming here in 1936 when he purchased the Home bakery.
He operated this until January 15, this year, when the building was sold, and he was forced to seek quarters elsewhere. He owned his stock and was still negotiating for a building.
Mr. Larsen had been visiting his son, Theodore, a veteran at Excelsior Springs, Mo., prior to going to visit his daughter at Minneapolis.
Surviving are 2 sons, Theodore, Excelsior Springs, Mo., and Leonard, at Los Angeles, and 2 daughters, Mrs. Ivan Erickson of Minneapolis and Mrs. Severyn Lewis, of Osage.
