20 July 1890 --- 17 August 1965

Mrs. Wm Palsdofer, 75, died suddenly in the family automobile late Tuesday evening enroute home from a trip to Oregon.

Mr. and Mrs. Palsdofer had concluded a five-week trip with their daughter, Mrs. Almira Isaacson, and family at Hillsboro, Ore. and their grandson, Bill Isaacson, was accompanying them home for a vacation before college began. He was driving the car at the time, with Mrs. Palsdofer sitting in the front seat beside him, when she suddenly died. They had planned to go to Sioux City that evening and were nearing the small town of Orchard, Neb. at the time. Bill drove immediately to the town where they were directed to a doctor who stated death was from a heart attack. She had been in good health while on the vacation trip.

Funeral services will be held Saturday afternoon at 2 o'clock in the Evangelical Lutheran church with Pastor H. W. Schiller officiating. Burial will be in Rose Hill Cemetery.

Mrs. Palsdofer is survived by her husband, one daughter, Mrs. Isaacson, and one son, Wm. V. Palsdofer of Cedar Rapids. She is also survived by three grandchildren and one great grandchild, one sister, Mrs. George Weidman, of Bellview, Neb., two brothers, Norman Stenseth of Aberdeen, S.D. and Bertram Stenseth of Sturgis, S.D. She was preceded in death by her parents, three brothers and three sisters.

Wm. V. Palsdofer is here at the present time and Mrs. Isaacson will arrive this morning.
