Share your Memorial with Family & Friends

Lanna & family, so sorry to hear of your husband's passing. As I just lost my husband a year ago February 5, I think I can sympathize with your loss. Hopefully we run into each other again soon. I started going to the Zytec traveling club. It is an enjoyable time seeing & talking with your old friends. You will have to come & join us. We either meet at Morton corner bar or in Morgan at the bar along the highway, the first & third Wednesday of every month. Contact Ruth Malmberg for details. Hope to see you soon. Teresa

Our deepest sympathies to Lanna and the family. He was a very dedicated volunteer with the Minnesota Inventors Congress.

Elwood was a very friendly, talkative, and fun person to be around. I first knew Elwood in Watertown, South Dakota where I did my practice teaching for Agricultural Education in 1967 or 1968. He was a banker. Then he was our banker in Redwood Falls when we bought a farm site west of town and I was farming. He said I had strong faith because I said rain would come in a drought year. He was complimentary and good to work with in banking. Blessed be his memory and Blessings to his family at this time of sorrow. John and Diane Woodford

Dear Lanna and family, My condolences to you and your family. Although I remember that I met Elwood one time at your house as I think it was a Christmas get together from Zytec, I knew him to be the apple of your eye. I do remember when you started to build your new house and how excited you were to be living out there with the wildlife...Please know you are in my prayers and thoughts. May God give you strength and courage to go forward and know you are never alone. Jerrine Kettner Springfield, MN

Our thoughts and prayers go out to Elwood's family. I worked with Elwood on many Auctions and other events over the years. We had a lot of conversations about everything over the years that I will always remember.
