RED LODGE — Marilyn "Lyn" Herem, 84, of Red Lodge, passed away Wednesday, Dec. 22, 2010, in Billings. She lived a full life as a servant to God, family and friends until ill health slowed her down. Born June 26, 1926, as the middle child of nine, she grew up on a farm near Pelican Rapids, Minn. She graduated as valedictorian of her high school class.

After World War II, she met a wild Montana cowboy named Al. They married in 1951 and moved to a ranch in Miles City. There, they had two sons: Gary and John. In 1959, they moved to Red Lodge, where they built a log home from scratch. Al and Lyn lived the rest of their lives in Red Lodge until their health needs meant moving to assisted living in Billings.

Lyn spent her entire life caring for others. She enjoyed volunteering for charitable causes. She devoted her life to her family and to serving God through her church, Messiah Lutheran in Red Lodge. She remained close with her Minnesota family her entire life. Lyn loved gardening, fishing, snowmobiling and any other outdoor activity. She belonged to a women's hiking club for many years. She also loved to ride double on Al's motorcycles (although she refused to ride through a firewall with him for their 50th anniversary!). Harley riders from all over the United States would stop in at their place, knowing they could camp in the backyard and enjoy one of Lyn's delicious meals. She had a wonderful gift of hospitality.

A pure Norwegian, Lyn belonged to a Scandinavian dance group that performed throughout Montana as well as each August for the Red Lodge Festival of Nations. She had a reputation for beautiful needlework and crafted many quilts and bunads (Norwegian costumes). She loved Norwegian baking. Tourists enjoyed watching her make lefse on Main Street during Festival — and sampling the results.

Lyn was preceded in death by her husband, Al, in April 2010. She is survived by son Gary (and Jo Anne) of Billings and their children, Michael of Billings and Rebecca of Seattle; and son John (and Mary) of Tacoma, Wash., and their daughter, Alicia (and Conor) Buechler, of Glen Cove, N.Y. Lyn has four surviving siblings (Ervin Toso, Duane Toso, Darlene Rustad, and Neil Toso) of Minnesota, as well as many nieces and nephews and their families.
