| 14754 | No finer a man could a person know than Robert J. Burns. Born 87 years ago in Iona, MN, Bob died peacefully in his own home on August 29, 2020 surrounded by his loving family. Bob understood early that hard work was necessary to achieve goals. From the tender age of 12, when he needed an inverted soda case to stand upon just to reach the till at his first job, Bob’s work ethic was unmatched. High school summers were spent working 65+ hours a week and resulted in the purchase of his first car, a ’34 coupe, for the tidy sum of $60 dollars. Post high school graduation, Bob willing served his country. He wasn’t drafted in 1950; he chose to enlist. Exceptional test scores allowed him to choose any discipline within the United States Navy he wanted. Aviation Electronics was his choice, a decision that took him from San Diego to Hawaii and on to the shores of Japan. In his later years, Bob was often found proudly wearing one of several Navy hats in his collection. Bob learned skills and expertise in the Navy that would serve him well in the telecommunications sector in which he made his livelihood. Through 32 years at AT&T, he only missed five days, testimony to his perseverance and tenacity. Bob declared earlier this year that the best decision he ever made was to retire in Claire City, SD. And no wonder as it was there where he met Ruth Gleason, a spirited girl who captured his heart in 1957. The two were married in 1959 and raised three children – Tom, Nancy, and Paula – in Bloomington and Savage, MN. The safety and protection of his family was his top priority. He went to unheard of measures for the times of installing seat belts in the family car. Just one of many examples of his ability to figure out solutions to problems others didn’t even realize existed. After building a number of family homes of their own, Bob and Ruth returned to her mother Edna’s home in Claire City where they thoroughly enjoyed their golden years. They shared a love of dogs, the great outdoors and simple pleasures. Many an evening was spent with Ruthie at the piano and Bob in his chair, eyes semi-closed, letting the music carry them. They are now joined forever “Beyond the Sunset.” He was an active member of the community serving as a volunteer firefighter when first returning to Claire City. Hunting trips were sprinkled with anecdotes about local fire fighting efforts. His was a familiar face at coffee gatherings at the Co-Op, always eager to engage in conversation. Countless are the ways that Bob’s legacy will endure. Most importantly, through his children and theirs: Elizabeth (Tom Burns); Maxine and Erich (Paula and Todd Ebel); and Jacqueline (Nancy and Kevin Gaukler). Also, through his gifts of precious silver and gold whose value, like his, grew with each passing year. And of course, through the self-designed paradise known as “The Trees.” With no formal agricultural training, he planted more than 8,000 trees creating a family haven for many a celebratory occasion. Bob will continue to be found in the quiet times when one of the kids ask themselves, “what would dad do in this situation?” He was a man of deep character who held steadfast to his convictions. When reaching an agreement, a simple handshake would suffice. Nothing in writing was needed; a man’s word was his word. Bob was preceded in death by his beloved grandmother Anna Bloch; mother Frieda; brother Gene; half-brother Terry; and wife Ruth; along with numerous aunts, uncles and cousins. Interment will follow in the Claire City Cemetery. Military honors will be provided by the Read-Veflin American Legion Post 180 of New Effington. | BURNS, Robert Jerome (I15170)

| 14756 | No first name on her birth record which was registered on December 20th. | THOMPSON, Malinda Josephina (I12863)
|
| 14757 | no first name shown | ANDERSON, Delornie Wilmar (I27998)
|
| 14758 | No first name shown on birth certificate. Mother’s maiden name shown as Hagen. Spelled Margarette in the 1910 census. She was a student at St. Olaf College at the time of her mother’s death. She graduated from St. Olaf in the class of 1930. Margaret Bye was, apparently, adopted by her uncle after her father’s (and mother’s) death. She is listed as a foster daughter in the obituary for Hans Bye. Her marriage to John Ellingboe was announced in the Northfield News edition of June 1, 1928. Elaine visited the Ellingboes in the middle of August, 1943. The Ellingboes lived in Robbinsdale at that time. Margaret was the informant for her uncle Hans’s death certificate. At that time (late 1946), her address was Richfield Station, Route 4, Minneapolis. Margaret knew that Hans’s parents were Martinus Bye and Olianna Johnson. Margaret and John Sr. moved to Phoenix in 1953 according to their son. Margaret’s obit in the Arizona Republic: Margaret Bye Ellingboe Margaret Bye Ellingboe, Born November 7, 1908 in Fergus Falls, Minnesota, passed away January 25, 2004. Preceded in death by her husband, John Sr., survived by her son, John Jr., of Gualala, CA, and her daughter, Mary Masterson of Phoenix, 7 grandchildren, and 9 great grandchildren. No memorial service is planned. Contributions may be made to Habitat for Humanity, Phoenix Rescue Mission, or Trinity Hospice. (Published in the Arizona Republic from 1/31/2004 - 2/1/2004.) Margaret Bye's father John was one of the charter members of the Trønderlag of America, the bygdelag for the Trøndelag region. John's brother Hans, John's and Hans's uncle Johannes (John) E. Bye, and John's and Hans's uncle Theodor Johnson (all of Fergus Falls) were also charter members. Although they weren't charter members, Johan Nathan Kildahl and his son Harald B. Kildahl joined the lag within its first two years. I suspect that this Trønderlag connection was what led Hans Bye (Margaret's uncle as well as step-father by that time) to send Margaret Bye to Kildahl's St. Olaf in 1926. Hans, having no children of his own, would have had the means to support Margaret's education and may have met Kildahl or known his fellow Trønder was president of St. Olaf. Northfield was quite a ways from Fergus Falls so it would have been unusual (except for the Trønderlag connection) for Margaret to have been sent off to St. Olaf. Mabel’s address book had Jack and Margaret’s address as 2002 W Sunnyside Dr, GH #20, Phoenix, AZ 85029 | BYE, Margaret (I140)
