OSAGE, IOWA — Funeral services for Mrs. Levina Olson, 84, who died Saturday at Mitchell County Memorial Hospital, will be at 2 p.m. Tuesday at Our Savior's Lutheran Church. Burial will be in Osage Cemetery.

NOTE: The newspaper really did spell her name as Levina, but since both SSDI and the cemetery spell it as Lavina, that is probably correct.
