Verona D. Koth, age 89, of Galva, Iowa, died on Thursday, August 10, 2017, at the Good Samaritan Society in Holstein, Iowa.

Verona D. Wogahn was born to Henry and Doretta (Hasenwinkle) Wogahn on March 20, 1928, in Cherokee County, Iowa. Baptized and confirmed in the Lutheran Faith at St. Paul’s Lutheran Church in Aurelia, Iowa, she graduated from Aurelia High School and worked as a telephone operator in Cherokee. On February 14, 1949, she married Arnold Koth. Their union was blessed with five children: Steve, Brad, Jeff, Kevin, and Melissa.

Verona enjoyed cooking, crocheting, bowling, fishing, being on the farm, and spending time with family and friends. A member of St. John’s Lutheran Church in Hanover, the Ladies Aid Society, and the church quilting group, she will be remembered as a loving and devoted wife, mother, grandmother, great grandmother, sister, and friend to many.
