    His obit in the Faribault Daily News, via Dalby:

    Oscar Hagen, 91, of Northfield and formerly of Sogn and Dennison, died Monday, Sept. 25, 1995, at Three Links Care Center. He was born Aug. 24, 1904, to Ole O. and Tina (Flom) Hagen on his familys farm near Sogn in rural Goodhue County. As he grew up, he helped with the farm chores and later attended the country school near their farm. Following school he began to work full time with his father, helping with the farm and dairy chores and driving the milk route, picking up the canned milk from farms and delivering it to the condensary for processing. They also did general truck hauling, picking up and delivering freight and other large items. In 1922, the Hagen family moved into Dennison to operate the trucking and milk route full time. He and his father often played with an old-time band, Hagen on the guitar and his father on the violin. Hagen later owned and operated the Hagen Garage in Dennison with his brother Delmer. The garage serviced autos and other gas-engine machines. Hagen had to stop working at the garage in the late 1960s due to his loss of sight. He continued to live in Dennison until moving to Northfield in 1972. Survivors include his brother, Delmer (and Alma) Hagen of Zumbrota; nieces Teresa Bellis of Grand Forks, N.D., and Karen Youkin of Minneapolis; and nephew Adrian Hagen of Faribault. He was preceded in death by his sister, Maryann Kasa. Services were held Thursday, Sept. 28, at Bierman Funeral Home, the Rev. Gerald Gengenbach of the Dennison and Vang Lutheran Churches officiating. Pallbearers were Adrian and David Hagen, Albert Remme and Helge Kasa. Interment is at Vang Cemetery in rural Dennison.
