Mrs. Halver Lund

Miss Anna Leon Blowers, daughter of M.C. and Susan Blowers was born in Marlin County, Minnesota April 21, 1882 and died March 15, 1931 at the Onawa Hospital after a critical illness for several weeks. She was 48 years 10 months 24 days old.

On January 4, 1905 she was united in marriage to Halver Lund. To this union 5 children were born, one of which preceded her in death in infancy.

Those who survive here departure are her husband, her 3 daughters, Vennie of Glenwood, Mrs. Evelyn Reed of Onawa and Helen Leon, her son John Henry, 3 sisters, Mrs. Mattie Hutcheson of Miller, South Dakota, Mrs. Hazel Carroll of Carter, South Dakota and Mrs. Gertrude Gray of Turin, Iowa, 2 brothers, Oscar of Onawa, Iowa and Milton of Gandhi, Nebraska and many other relatives and a host of friends.

She moved to Iowa in 1892 and lived for several years in Moorhead. The family moved to Onawa in 1920 where they have made their home since that time.

Shortly after her marriage she united with the Moorhead Christian Church and later placed her membership in the First Christian Church of Onawa. She was a strong believer in the principles of the Christian Church and remained a true and loyal follower of her Christ until her death.

She was a good wife and mother and a neighbor to everyone in need. Not only will she be missed by the immediate relatives of the family circle, but the entire community mourns the loss of a friend, one who was so patient and kind and cheerful through every moment of her life.

Funeral services were conducted by Rev. Orval E. Walker from the Christian Church Wednesday March 17th at 1 o’clock. Mrs. Walter Pinske comforted the family by her message in appropriable songs.
