Maccine Ramona Perkins Lovik, the daughter of Oren and Sina (Anderson) Perkins, was born on May 17, 1913, in Worth county, rural Northwood, and was the second youngest of seven children born to this union. She was baptized and confirmed at Silver Lake Lutheran Church, Worth County, rural Northwood. She received her education at Hartland Township rural school and was graduated from Northwood High School in May 1931.
In 1932, she married Harry Lovik. To this union, three children were born. The couple farmed near Northwood and later moved to a farm near Hanlontown and then purchased a farm near Thompson in 1948. In 1979 they divorced.
Maccine was active in Bethany Lutheran Church and in a group called JFF Club which met “Just For Fun” and fellowship. Her hobbies included gardening, reading and crafts. She especially liked doing the art of quilling.
She moved to Forest City in 1978 where she worked as a kitchen aide for about 20 years at the Good Samaritan Center. Because of failing health, she entered the Lake Mills Care Center in August of 1997 and resided there until her death on Jan. 28, 2006 at the age of 92 years.
She will be remembered by her family as a very loving Mom and Grandmom who made the best sugar cookies and lefse ever.
