      Icle Faye Severson, 98, of Austin, Minnesota, died Thursday morning, Dec. 24, 2015, at Sacred Heart Care Center in Austin, Minnesota.

      Icle Faye Greiner was born July 14, 1917, in Floris, Iowa, the daughter of Perle and CoraMae (Copeland) Greiner. She received her education in the Carpenter, Iowa, schools. Faye married Carl Zuehl in St. Ansgar, Iowa, in 1937. They were blessed with a daughter, Kaye. Carl died in 1939. On March 28, 1942, Faye married Clifford “Don” Severson at the Little Brown Church near Nashua, Iowa. The couple made their home on the Severson family farm until 1953, when they moved to Carpenter, Iowa. In 1960, they moved to Florida, returning to Austin, Minnesota, in 1984. Don died in 2003, and in 2004 Faye moved to St. Mark’s Assisted Living. In May of 2014, Faye moved to Sacred Heart Care Center in Austin. She was a member of Our Savior’s Lutheran Church and a 4-H Leader for many years. She loved flowers, stitching, crocheting and quilting. She was a wonderful dancer, and participated in many dance contests. Faye enjoyed decorating her home, was a very good writer and wrote many stories compiled into a book.

      Faye is survived by a daughter, Kaye (Irving) Nagel of Rose Creek; a son, Bruce (Susan) Severson of Mannford, Oklahoma; 14 grandchildren; two great-grandchildren; a sister, Louise Kirchgatter of St. Ansgar, Iowa; and many other relatives and friends.

      She was preceded in death by her parents Perle and CoraMae Greiner; both husbands; and 15 siblings.
