Arlene Kroman
March 7, 1921 - June 27, 2010


Biography
Arlene, daughter of Herbert A. and Ella (Martin) Stearns, was born March 7, 1921 in the village of Hendley, NE. She grew up there, attended school and graduated with the Class of 1939. After graduation the family moved to Carson, IA, and Arlene worked in nearby Avoca at a dentist’s office and Trout’s Five and Dime Store.


On March 7, 1943, Arlene was united in marriage with Peter M. Kroman at Omaha, NE. Peter and Arlene farmed and raised livestock on their farm just a mile away from Peter’s birthplace in Jackson Township, Shelby County, IA. Three children were born to this union and Arlene was a devoted homemaker and mother. She also raised chickens, cleaned the milk separator and raised a large garden. She canned vegetables and meat and was always baking for family and friends. In addition, she cared for the home of her mother-in-law for many years. Peter and Arlene retired in 1974, but continued to live on the farm until 1998 when they moved to Elk Horn.


Arlene was a member of Elk Horn Lutheran Church. She was interested in church and community projects and always quietly did more than her share of volunteer work. Arlene and Peter enjoyed playing cards with a number of different clubs.


In her spare time, Arlene enjoyed playing cards, attending the Friendly Neighbors Club and in later years, participating in the outings of the Red Hat Society. She quilted as a hobby, making quilts for each child and grandchild as well as baby quilts for each great-grandchild. After the death of her husband in 2005, Arlene continued to live in their home and led a very active life, especially driving her red PT Cruiser and going shopping.


Arlene died suddenly and unexpectedly at Myrtue Memorial Hospital in Harlan on Sunday, June 27, 2010, at the age of 89 years, 3 months and 20 days.


Besides her parents and husband, she is preceded in death by two sisters Daisy and husband Laddie Tylkowski and Dora and husband Clarence Loennig; three brothers Harold Stearns and wife Dorothy, Earl Stearns and Herb Stearns and wife Joyce; and four brothers-in-law Pete Tripe, Howard Kroman, Albert Kroman and Donald Kroman.


Arlene is survived by three children: Judith and husband Darrell Peters of Minden; Richard Kroman and wife Sherrie of Littleton, CO; and Barbara and husband Mark Smith of Elk Horn; nine grandchildren: Corene and husband Gene Kelly, Brian Peters and wife Amy, Cheryl and husband Jon Simmons, Jason Kroman, Scott Kroman, Heidi and husband Matt Sherry, Brian Smith, Eric Smith, and Laura Smith; six great-grandchildren: Michael, Nathan, and Abby Kelly; Cole and Mika Simmons and Mason Sherry; brothers-in-law Robert Kroman of Elk Horn; sister Clela Tripe of Rifle, CO; sisters-in-law Lou and husband Bob Campbell of Denver, CO and Norma Jean Kroman of Phoenix, AZ; many nieces, nephews, other relatives and friends.

In Memoriam of Chester B. Larsen

Chester B. Larsen
April 4, 1910 - May 27, 2010

Chester Bernard, son of Claus and Ellen Marie (Lauritsen) Larsen was born April 4, 1910 in Audubon Co. Iowa. He was baptized and confirmed at the Bethany Lutheran Church northeast of Kimballton. He grew up on the C.P. and Ann Marie Lauritsen home place near Kimballton and attended Sharon #4 rural school. Chester farmed with his father until moving to Los Angeles, CA in 1936. He drove his 1936 Chevy accompanied by his sister Edna and friends from Kimballton. In California he was engaged in various jobs and attended Santa Monica Construction Trade school.

While in California he attended Olivet Lutheran Church where he met Elizabeth Aagaard of Elk Horn, Iowa. These years in California formed a bank of memories for Chester and Elizabeth. They loved to take trips to Santa Monica, the orange groves, San Francisco, Santa Barbara, the ocean and Yosemite. These trips were photographed and form a pictorial history of pre WWII California. Chester’s photos and the memories have been passed down to succeeding generations.

Chester Larsen and Elizabeth Aagaard were married Feb.16, 1941 at the Elk Horn Lutheran Church in Elk Horn, IA. Three children were born to this union. For thirty seven years they farmed north of Kimballton. A big part of his farm life was raising cattle. He was a member of the Audubon County T-bone Club, served on the Audubon County Fair Board and helped build the new fair buildings. He was a 4H leader for the Sharon Straight Shooters.

Chester was a member of Elk Horn Lutheran Church, the Danish Brotherhood, taught Sunday school, and was active on fund raising committees for the new church built in 1949 as well as the Sunday school addition. He also participated in many fund raising projects for mission programs.

Chester was active in the establishment of the Elk Horn Kimballton School District and served on the School Board for many years including the position of president.

He was a lifelong Republican and served as an election judge in Audubon County Iowa and in Jefferson County Colorado.

Chester and Elizabeth loved picnicking and fishing at Prairie Rose State Park. They enjoyed family vacations traveling to Yellowstone, Minnesota, Colorado, Oregon, California and, in later years, loved to meet with cousins at Padre Island, Texas. A favorite trip for Chester was the one to Denmark with his daughters and granddaughters in 2001.

In 1978 Chester and Elizabeth retired from the farm and moved to Littleton, CO where they were members of Holy Trinity Lutheran Church. Chester enjoyed returning to the construction business. He and Elizabeth had a beautiful flower garden and a huge strawberry patch. They loved entertaining their family and friends on the patio. The granddaughters spent many hours with grandpa in his garage workshop.

Chester had a love of family history and family lore. He repeated the stories told to him by his father. These stories have become a rich memory for his family. His love of photography began at the age of fourteen when his father gave him his first camera. These passions remained with him throughout his life.

After the death of his wife of 59 years in 2000, Chester stayed in their home in Littleton. It was during this time that he joined Abiding Hope Lutheran Church. In 2007 Chester moved to The Gardens of Columbine. He passed away Thursday, May 27, 2010 at the Gardens of Columbine in Littleton at the age of 100 years, 1 month and 23 days.

He was preceded in death by his wife Elizabeth Aagaard Larsen; parents Claus and Ellen Marie Larsen; two sisters Edna Kjergaard (Bork) and Lillian Woodruff and two brothers Edward Larsen and Herbert Larsen (Regina).

Chester is survived by his daughter Barbara Martin and her husband Ron, of Morrison, CO; son Charles Larsen and wife Julie, of Kimballton, IA; and daughter Cynthia Adams and husband Gary, of Littleton, CO: five granddaughters: Elizabeth Sherwood and husband Jim of Wichita, KS; Mary Marsh and husband Jeff of Littleton, CO; Carrie Calkins and husband Michael, of Littleton, CO; Sarah Norfolk and husband Ted, of Grand Junction, CO; and Kathryn Ferguson and husband Dan of Philadelphia, PA; eight great-grand children: Brady and Benjamin Sherwood; Julianna and Caroline Marsh; Aidan Calkins; and Jack, Emi and Abby Norfolk; many nieces and nephews and friends.

Opal Therkildsen Peavler - Age 99

Opal Lucinda Peavler, daughter of George and Mary (Carlson) Adams, was born January 5, 1911 in Kirkman, Iowa. She attended school in Kirkman and graduated from Kirkman High School. Opal knitted a sweater for a grateful World War I soldier as pictured on the cover when she was in second grade at age 7. Opal’s family later made their home in Harlan.

On February 18, 1931, Opal was united in marriage to Glen A. Therkildsen in Harlan, Iowa. They were the parents of one ornery son, Charles George Therkildsen in 1937. In 1950, Glen died after an accidental fall from a ladder. Opal continued to make her home in Harlan while working as a retail clerk. Opal then moved to Council Bluffs, Iowa where she entered nurses training at Jennie Edmundson Hospital where she completed her degree as a Licensed Practical Nurse.

On August 19, 1954, Opal was united in marriage to Ernie Peavler in Council Bluffs, Iowa while both were employed at Jennie Edmundson Hospital. Opal and Ernie later retired to Ernie’s hometown of Triplett, Missouri. Not long after Ernie’s death, Opal yearned to return to live in her hometown of Harlan.

Opal was very active all her life. In addition to being a nurse, she was a member of the United Methodist Church and was a member of the United Methodist Builders Class. She was a member of the Order of the Eastern Star for more than fifty years where she served as a Worthy Matron. She was still active in many clubs: Knitters, CC Club, Tuesday Morning Coffee Klutch at Mickels and just loved to be out and about with Rosie when weather permitted.

She died on April 2, 2010, at the Myrtue Memorial Hospital in Harlan having attained the age of ninety-nine years, two months and twenty-eight days. In addition to her parents and husbands, Opal was preceded in death by her sister June and brothers Lloyd and Roy Adams.

Opal is survived by her son, C. G. "Turk" Therkildsen and his wife Joyce of Inverness, Illinois; her granddaughters: DeAnne and her husband Tom Prochnow of Bloomington, Illinois and Debbi and her husband Rich Peterson of Elburn, Illinois; her great grandchildren: Chelsie, Charlie and Curtis Prochnow and Austin and Alyssa Peterson; four generations of nieces and nephews and special friends Rosie and her husband Don Thraen of Harlan. She is also survived by her constant and beloved Snowshoe Siamese kitten companion, Samantha. Opal always believed an angel sent Samantha to her via the Forever Homes Animal Shelter.

Funeral services were held 10:00 A.M. on Monday, April 5, 2010 at the Pauley Jones Funeral Home in Harlan, Iowa and officiated by Dr. Rev. David Swinton. Interment was held at the Harlan Cemetery in Harlan with Charlie Prochnow, Curtis Prochnow, Tom Prochnow, Austin Peterson, Rich Peterson and Don Thraen serving as casket bearers.

http://www.desmoinesregister.com/apps/pbcs.dll/dclassifieds?...

Donald Dean Stolz, age 78, died peacefully after a courageous battle with cancer, Friday, April 9, 2010, in Johnston Mercy Hospice.

Don was born to Henry and Ruth Stolz and spent his early years in Harlan, IA. Following his graduation from Harlan High School, Don worked at the Harlan Tribune as a typesetter and apprentice printer. His career took him to Ida Grove, IA, then to Hannibal, MO, where he served the Hannibal Courier Post for more than ten years. Don and his wife, Carole, raised three children; Douglas, Susanne, and Craig. They were active in the Hannibal Lutheran Church and the school system. Don served as a church deacon for several years while there. Don moved his family to Des Moines in 1967 accepting a position as printer and layout composer with the Des Moines Register and Tribune, serving the newspaper until his retirement in 1997.


Those who knew Don, knew his love and devotion to racing, NASCAR, and his loyalty to #3 - the "Intimidator". NASCAR memorabilia fills his home. His love for racing began in his youth when he would sneak away to the Harlan Racetrack, peeking through the fence to watch Tiny Lund race. Travels took Don to the opening NASCAR Daytona 500, 27 consecutive years; plus also attending races in TN, AL, GA, TX, KS, and Newton, IA.


World War II history, airplanes, fighter planes, battles, skirmishes - all could keep Don talking for hours. He loved talking with the men from WWII who made the trip to the Washington DC Memorial. His collection of caps, buttons, books, tapes, and movies justified his interest. One of his favorite trips was visiting the USS Arizona Memorial and the USS Missouri in Pearl Harbor.
Sketching, photography, bird watching, travel, and being with friends were Don's joy and showed his love for life.


Don is predeceased by his wife, Carole J. (Rabe) Stolz; his parents, Hank and Ruth (Smith) Stolz; and a brother, Richard. Surviving are his long-time companion and friend, Blanche Riordan of West Des Moines; sister, Mary Ann (Bernard) Stein of Prairie City, IA; brothers, Ralph Stolz of Eau Clair, WI, and Roger Stolz of Colorado Springs, CO; sons, Douglas (Shellie) Stolz of Tulsa, OK, and Craig (Terri) Stolz of Aurora, CO; and daughter, Susanne (Dave) Lunders of Parkville, MO. "Adopted" families include Jeannine (Larry) Laughlin of Waukee, Tony (Amy) Riordan of Urbandale, and Beth Thede of Lakeville, MN; six grandchildren, eight "adopted" grandchildren, one great-grandson; and many, many loving friends and relatives. We loved him and he will always share a place in our hearts. He is at peace!


A memorial service will be 10:30 a.m., Friday, April 16, 2010, at Windsor United Methodist Church, 6222 University Avenue, Des Moines. Visitation will be one hour prior to the time of the service, beginning at 9:30 a.m.

VOEGE, PHYLLIS ELAINE (MUELLER)
Denison Bulletin/Review
4/16/2010

Phyllis Elaine, daughter of Earl and Lela (Blair) Mueller, was born November 5, 1928 on a farm north of Walnut in Shelby County, Iowa. She attended Monroe #8 and Layton #4 schools and graduated from Walnut High School in 1946. Phyllis earned her Limited Elementary Teacher's Certificate on November 5, 1946 and taught country school for two years, the first at a school near Marne and the second at Monroe #8 near Walnut. As a young girl, Phyllis was active in the Layton Willing Workers 4-H club. In 1948 she was awarded the Ak-Sar-Ben gold medal and was recognized as the member who had rendered the greatest service to the county 4-H effort during the past year.

On December 30, 1948, Phyllis was united in marriage with Harold Voege at Peace Evangelical & Reformed Church in Walnut (where she had been confirmed on March 29, 1942). They made their first home on a farm four miles northwest of Manning for two years before building their home on the farm owned by Harold's parents. One daughter, Jean, was born to this union.

Phyllis was a farm wife and helped with all aspects of the family farm operation. In addition, she raised ducks, geese, chickens, sold eggs and had a large vegetable garden. Phyllis noted "I like the outdoor life and the simple way of doing things." She was a member of St. John's United Church of Christ in Westside where she was a Sunday School teacher for many years. She became a member of the United Church in Westside and was elected to serve on the first parish council created by the joining of St. John's and Westside Presbyterian Church. She was also a member of the Westside Cemetery Auxiliary.

Harold passed away September 14, 1995 and Phyllis moved into an apartment in Manning in November 1996. She became active in a number of community organizations serving as the Chaplain for the American Legion Auxiliary and the Guard for the VFW Auxiliary for a number of years. She was also a member of the Aspinwall Community Club Auxiliary. She enjoyed volunteering for bingo at the Manning Plaza.

She enjoyed having a cup of coffee and piece of pie at Deb's Corner Cafe in Manning visiting with her friends and family. She often commented "I have a dozen cousins and Harold has dozens of cousins." After retirement, Phyllis enjoyed many trips with Jean. Their travels included Cape Cod, the California Redwoods, the Oregon coast, Mt. St. Helen's, Mount Rushmore, Yellowstone National Park and Disneyland. Her last trip in January 2007 fulfilled her dream to attend the Tournament of Roses parade in Pasadena, California.

Phyllis became a resident of the Manning Plaza in November 2009 where she died on Saturday, April 10, 2010. She was 81 years, 5 months and 5 days of age. When asked how she would like to be remembered, Phyllis responded "Just think of me as a person who was willing to work and help other people."

Phyllis was preceded in death by her parents; husband Harold Voege; and sister-in-law Arlene Voege.

She is survived by her daughter Jean Voege and friend Sue Mulvihill of Manning; many cousins and friends; and her brother Milton (Vera) Mueller of Walnut and their daughters Donna and Rita.
