Posted on Tributes.com by his sister:

Samuel was born on March 19, 1922 and passed away in September 1981.

Sam was the first born of 10 children. He was my oldest brother. I loved Sam very much and have some very fond memories. He went away to the Navy when I was only 3 years old, so most of my memories of him come from the time when I was 6 years old and had the honor of being the flower girl at his wedding to Alta Ann. My twin brother was the ring bearer at the same wedding. My dress for that wedding was a duplicate of the brides dress and my twin brother wore a sailor suit that was a duplicate of Sam's sailor suit which he wore for the wedding.

When I was 11 years old Sam and Alta took me to Minnesota for the summer to babysit their 2 children, Steven and Sharon. For that summer of babysitting, Sam and Alta bought me my school clothes for the year. I went back to school that year as the best dressed girl in the school.

When I was to return home from Minnesota, Sam put me on a bus for the 500 mile trip. I had to change buses in Des Moines, Iowa. Sam had arranged for a gentleman on the bus to make sure I made it to the new bus station and make my connection to the new bus.

Sam sent dolls to Patrick and I for Christmas when we were 3 years old. I was not much into dolls, so Patrick played with the dolls and wore them out.

Sam left this world far too soon and I will miss him always, but am sure I will meet him again in heaven when it is my time to leave this world.

His obit said that he was a retired Navy veteran and had served in World War II, the Korean conflict, and in Viet Nam. He was a member of the Sons of Norway Henrik Ibsen Lodge and of the Norwegian Mens Club of San Francisco. He was a retired employee of United Airlines.

Samuel Gunderson was born on July 27, 1862 at Siljord, Telemarken, Norway. His parents were Gunhild and Gunder Holverson. He spent his early years and obtained his academic and university education, followed by five years of teaching, in the old country, before coming to America in the year 1887, at the approximate age of 25.

Two years later, June 2, 1889, he united in marriage with Sarah Helle at Cresco, and they came to Ridgeway, where they made their home for the following 51 years, with the exception of one year, 1918, spent at Decorah. To this union were born four daughters: Mrs. John Gesell of Ridgeway, Mrs. Sophia Anderson of Rochester, Mrs. Clarence Natvig of Kimball, S. D., and Mrs. Arthur J. Peterson of Minneapolis. Surviving also are the widow, Mrs. Samuel Gunderson, the 4 daughters, eleven grandchildren, two great grandchildren and also three brothers of the deceased; Charles, Halvor and George Gunderson, all of Devils Lake, N. D., and one sister, Gunhild in Norway. The fifty years spent in this vicinity, teaching parochial school and his devoted service in the Lincoln, Madison and Ridgeway congregations is well known by all in this community. His tireless work extended thru out the pastorate of the following: Rev. E. Wulfsberg, Rev. N. P. Xavier, Rev. Thos. Nelson and Rev. Jordahl.

In June of this year, Mr. Gunderson was confined to his bed, and his patience and kind nature was always a pleasure to his loved one constantly around him. Death came peacefully at 11:40 p.m. Wednesday night after nearly six months of confinement. May his blessed memory be ever with us for years to come.
