Loretta Ann Zweibohmer, 96, of Norwood Young America, MN, formerly of Ossian, IA died Friday, May 10, 2019 at St. Mary’s Care Center, Winsted, MN. She was born November 30, 1922 to Henry C. and Mary (Langreck) Mihm in Auburn Township, Fayette County, Iowa. Loretta was baptized and confirmed at St. Luke’s Catholic Church in St. Lucas, IA and educated at St. Luke’s School in St. Lucas.

Loretta was united in marriage with Clarence L. Zweibohmer on January 8, 1946 at St. Luke’s Catholic Church. They had two daughters: Mary Kay of NYA, MN and Jean Ann of Golden, CO.
