She attended Calhoun elementary school in Minneapolis and graduated from Minneapolis West High School in 1948.

In the 1950 census, she was a student at St. Olaf College and was a lodger with a family in Northfield.

St. Olaf College, 1952. University of Minnesta, MA Library Science, 1972.

At the announcement of her marriage to Malmberg in 1954, an article in the Star said that she was intending to pursue graduate studies at the University of Minnesota where her new husband would also be studying.

A celebration of Carol’s life will be held at 1:30 p.m., Saturday, Jan. 20, 2024, at Bethlehem Evangelical Lutheran Church, 2390 North Road, Los Alamos, NM 87544.

Carol Ruth Belsheim Nielson — a musician and librarian known and loved for her graciousness, generosity, and irrepressible sense of humor — died Oct. 19, 2023, in Santa Fe, NM, after a long decline due to cardiac issues and Parkinson’s disease.

Born Feb. 20, 1930, in Minneapolis, MN, Carol was the oldest child of Dorothy Stephan Belsheim, a homemaker and grocery store worker, and George Nathan Belsheim, a music teacher, choral conductor, and humor writer. She began piano and violin lessons at an early age, and in college switched to viola — an instrument she continued to play with great skill and enjoyment for more than seven decades.

Carol earned a BA in music performance and education from St. Olaf College in 1952.

In 1954 she married Allan Malmberg, a cellist she’d played with in a string quartet and the St. Olaf Orchestra. The following summer they moved to Los Alamos, NM, where Allan had been offered a job at the Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory (later LANL) through a former professor.

Allan and Carol divorced in 1966, and Carol began working full time at LASL’s scientific reference and reports library while bringing up three small children. Carol moved the kids to Minneapolis temporarily in late 1970 so she could complete her master’s degree in library science at the University of Minnesota. On returning to LASL, she continued to grow professionally, eventually becoming head of the reference department at the Lab library.

In the early 1970s, Carol was selected to train on a new electronic data transfer system that linked government libraries across the U.S. The network gave librarians broader and faster access to classified reference sources, which enabled the scientists they served to collaborate more fluidly. Though it was a closed system due to security requirements, in some ways it paralleled other early precursors to the internet.

Carol remained conversant with computers and electronic communications throughout her life, seeing them as useful tools to find and share information. But even without digital search tools, Carol could find multiple references for any query, no matter how obscure or unusual. She was Google before there was a Google. She also volunteered her librarian superpowers to catalog the library at Bethlehem Lutheran Church, her spiritual home for many decades.

In 1967, Carol gave a library tour to a small group of scientists, including a young physicist named Clair Nielson. Carol and Clair dated off and on for the next 13 years, and were married in January 1981, after an engagement of just a few weeks. They were together for the next 40 years, enjoying music, food, books, gardens, travel, and each other’s company, until his death in July 2021.

Classical music was Carol’s lifelong passion. She loved playing chamber music with other talented musicians in Los Alamos, and also performed with the Los Alamos Sinfonietta (later the Los Alamos Symphony Orchestra), the Los Alamos Choral Society, the Santa Fe Community Orchestra, and other groups. During the early years of Bethlehem Lutheran Church, she played the organ for church services. After Carol retired from LANL in 1993, she played viola semiprofessionally for several years with the Roswell Symphony Orchestra.

Carol’s ashes will be interred at the Bethlehem Lutheran Church columbarium alongside those of her late husband, Clair. She is survived by her children, Eric, Stephen, and Elise Malmberg, along with Eric’s sons, Aidan and Jordan Malmberg, and Elise’s spouse, Joe Gore. The family extends deep gratitude to the caregivers who helped Carol with such grace during her final two years: Frankie Serna, Rafael Escamilla, Claudia Salas, Sandra Valdez, Viridiana Cruz-Cardenas, and Carol’s “sunshine,” Sandra Salas.

Even as she declined, Carol charmed those around her with her witty remarks and extensive vocabulary. She took great delight in finding just the right (often polysyllabic) word to make her meaning clear. In our hearts, she’s exchanging wry observations from above with Clair, her brother Jerry, her father and mother, her beloved aunties, and the many dear friends who passed before her.

In lieu of flowers, please listen to a piece of music you love. Memorial contributions may be sent to the George Nathan Belsheim Endowed Scholarship for music majors at St. Olaf College in Northfield, MN.

She attended high school in Milwaukee.

She and her husband both attended Bob Jones University.

She is probably the 20 year-old Mrs. Ingrid Dinsmore who was stabbed in the chest by an assailant in the parking lot of an Alexandria, Virginia, shopping center in early January of 1968.

June 15, 1947-May 2, 2021
Charlotte, NC

Ingrid Skogstad Dinsmore, 73, suddenly and unexpectedly passed into eternity early morning on Sunday, May 2, 2021 at her home in Charlotte.

She is survived by her loving husband of more than 55 years, Bob (Charlotte, NC); two children, Jennifer Ryan and her husband, Trey (Raleigh, NC); Dr. Jason Dinsmore and his wife, Dr. Justyna Wolak-Dinsmore (Durham, NC); and two grandchildren, Jacob and Joseph Dinsmore.

Mrs. Dinsmore was born in Wisconsin, a daughter of the late Norman and Marilynn (Carlson) Skogstad and is also survived by her four siblings; Dr. Sigrid Luther and her husband, Dr. David Luther (Chattanooga, TN); Leif Skogstad and his wife, Sarah (London, England); Lisa Skogstad, and her husband, Scott McLaughlin (Milwaukee, WI); and Britt Skogstad (CDR, USN RET.) and his wife, Kathy (Chesapeake, VA) and many loved nephews and nieces.

Ingrid met Bob, her adored husband, while registering for college classes in November 1965; she was a strikingly beautiful coed with a great personality and oozing with intrigue and mystique. He was instantly captivated marking the beginning of an almost a 56-year love affair. That captivation resulted in a proposal of marriage the following March, and a wedding in July. They began their life together living in Northern Virginia. Six years later their family grew with the birth of a beautiful baby girl, Jennifer, and three years after that, with the birth of a handsome young son, Jason.

The love of Ingrid’s life was her family, and she and Bob delighted in each new family addition. The mathematician in her was also tickled by the way two specific family additions arrived: thirty years after she and Bob began their married life, they gained a son-in-law, Trey, and exactly ten years later, a daughter-in-law, Justyna. These wonderful gifts could only be topped by the births of their two grandsons, Jacob and Joseph, a few years later.

When the pandemic arrived, it made in-person family visits impossible, but she got creative about how to stay connected with her family. One of her favorite things to do was to Face Time with her grandsons and read to them while they ate dinner. She also had Crafty Hour with her daughter where they knit and crocheted together, Bible studies with her son, and Zoom calls with all of her siblings.

After her marriage to Bob, Ingrid finished undergraduate (George Mason University) and graduate degrees (University of North Carolina, Charlotte) in mathematics. She initially entered the work force with an insurance company in Washington, DC, and later worked as a professional staff member of an international actuarial consulting firm. A few years later she brought her talent and experience into the field of education and taught at various high schools and colleges. She finished her career in the actuarial department of a large international insurance company.

Ingrid had a brilliant and curious mind, and a wide range of interests. These included travel – especially to foreign countries and their second home in Maine; sports – she played golf and tennis, and with Bob attended both the Masters Golf Tournament and Wimbledon on several occasions. She enjoyed playing bridge with her friends, and exploring museums with her children and grandsons. She loved to cook, crochet, knit and read. She loved bookstores and libraries, going to the movies, and watching murder mysteries on streaming TV with Bob. She was also an avid reader of many books genres and never failed to read the daily local and national newspapers, where no topic was off limits. She was a woman of many talents and interests, but first and most of all a lifelong loving wife and mother, and a wonderful friend to all who were fortunate enough to intersect with her life.

Ingrid’s Christian faith was very strong, and deeply rooted. When her family would ask where she wanted to be buried so that they could visit she always replied, “Well, you can visit. I’ll leave a graveside bench, but I won’t be there. I’ll be in heaven.” Our great sorrow and heartbreak caused by her passing is slightly eased knowing that is exactly where she now resides.

She attended high school in Northfield and boarded with a family there.

In the 1920 census, Judith was recorded as living at home with her parents and siblings in Eureka Twp, Dakota County. At that time, she was already a grade school teacher so she may have attended a “normal school” after high school.

She graduated from St. Olaf in its class of 1924. During her college years, she worked as a student assistant or teaching assistant to Ole Rolvaag.

The Sobergs lived next door to the Campions at the time of the 1930 census. Also living with the Sobergs at the time of the 1930 census was a 28 year-old laborer from Norway named Agnar Myrhaug.
