Mass of Christian Burial will be Wed., Dec. 17, 10AM at St. Lawrence Church, 1205 12th Ave. S.E., Minneapolis, with visitation one hour prior. Burial will follow at Resurrection Cemetery.

Mpls., in 1926, attended Minneapolis Vocational High School and at age 16 began her work life as a stenographer, bookkeeper and legal secretary. Included among her later employers was Schmitt Music, where she gave lessons on the Hammond Organ.

On October 29, 1948, Bea married Burton H. Johnston. She and Burt remained at the Lapping family home to care for Bee's parents until their deaths in the 1960s. After Burt's retirement, they spent summers fishing, gardening and picking berries for jam on the shores of Lake Superior. Although Burt and Bee had no children, they welcomed generations of friends, relatives and children into their home, entertaining on the organ and saxophone, always sharing wonderful home-cooked meals including her famous potato salad, baked beans, and German kuchen. Her baking was renown. Annual bake sales at St. Lawrence Church had lookouts announcing her arrival to lines of expectant customers. A tin of dainty shortbread Christmas cookies always accompanied visitors as they left her house at Christmastime.

Her caring spirit and loving smile made her a treasure to us all. Bee proudly lived in her childhood home nearly all her life. After Burt's death in 2005, with the help of family and friends, she remained there alone until age 100, and then moved to Catholic Eldercare in N.E. Minneapolis.

Jerry Marrin was born November 18 1915 in Minneapolis to Jasper and Adelaide (Mayer) Lapping. She grew up in SE Minneapolis and was a 1933 graduate of Minneapolis John Marshall. She showed an early aptitude for music. While in high school, she and two friends formed a trio, the Sophisticates, won numerous talent contests and sang regularly on WCCO radio opposite the Andrews Sisters.

After high school, the trio joined the Bernie Cummins Orchestra. Jerry adopted the stage name Jerry Lang and toured extensively with the orchestra during the 1930s. When the trio later disbanded, Jerry became lead vocalist with the orchestra. She sang at the Waldorf Astoria in New York, the Palmer House in Chicago, the Palace Hotel in San Francisco and in many other ballrooms across the country.

She left the orchestra in 1939, returned to Minneapolis and met Francis J Marrin. They married on July 10 1941 at Holy Rosary Catholic Church. They settled in SE Minneapolis and raised seven children.

After her marriage, Jerry continued her love of music and imparted it to her children. She was a mainstay of the choir at St Lawrence Catholic Church for many years, sang in church-sponsored musicals and variety shows, studied opera and piano at the MacPhail School of Music in Minneapolis and became an accomplished classical pianist. She and her husband moved to St Cloud in 1991.

She is survived by her 6 sons, their wives, daughter, her husband, 2 sisters, one brother-in-law, 20 grandchildren and one great-grandchild.

She was preceded in death by her husband, parents, and brothers Edwin and Bennett Lapping.

LeVonne was born on April 9, 1925 and went to be with the Lord on October 15, 2013. She was born in Minneapolis, Minnesota and had three brothers - Robert, Russell and Richie. Richie is the lone survivor at 91 years of age. He currently lives at Windsor Gardens in Anaheim. LeVonne's family moved to Long Beach, California in the early forties. She worked at Sears and also a small appliance store.

On October 5, 1944, she married Walter Haas in San Diego. Wally was in the Navy and one month later he shipped out to the South Pacific until November 1945. When he returned they set up residence in Long Beach.

After her husband Wally retired from the California Highway Patrol they traveled quite a bit - buying, repairing and selling antiques. She had a large collection of glass pitchers, plates and Hummel figurines. In 1980 Wally and LeVonne and two of their friends - who were antique dealers - went to England, Scotland and Ireland and bought a large container of antiques and sent them home. They fixed them up and sold them. They made many buying trips across the country from California to Maine.

LeVonne loved music and liked to watch old DVD's of musical comedies. She loved to play the piano. She has always been a caretaker and never failed to offer something to eat and drink to any visitor to her home. LeVonne enjoyed being with her family and fortunately they all live close and she was able to see them on all occasions. She was very active in her church and very strong in her faith.

LeVonne is survived by her husband of 69 years, Wally; her two children, Patricia M. Ramskill (husband - Stan) of Garden Grove and Paul James Haas (wife - Bunnie) of Anaheim. Paul is a retired Anaheim Police Sergeant. She is also survived by six grandchildren, ten great-grandchildren and one great-great-grandchild.

The family would like to thank the staff at Emeritus at Fairwood Manor in Anaheim for the wonderful loving care given to LeVonne for the past 2 1/2 years.

A viewing will be held Thursday, October 24, 2013 from 6pm - 8pm at Memory Garden Memorial Park, 455 W. Central, Brea, Ca 92821.

Notes:

Her birth certificate was indexed as Woodruffe.

Jonak, Marjorie K. (Woodroffe) Our beloved mother, grandmother and great-grandmother, age 96, passed away on April 27 in the presence of her children and other family members. She was preceded in death by her husband, Edward S. Jonak. She will be dearly missed by son Michael (Roya), daughters Marianne Halling (Chris) and Molly Riddle (Chris), grandchildren Charlie, Joe, Emily, John, Mina, Eric, Eddie, Helen and Marin, and great-grandchildren Aidan, Lily and Ella. Marge, as everyone knew her, was born in Minneapolis in December 1922 to William (Bill) and Lucille Woodroffe. Although Marge grew up an only child, her mother was one of 17 children, so there were plenty of cousins with whom she established life-long relationships. During the early years of Marge's childhood, Marge's father purchased Northland Lodge, a resort on the shores of Big Winny in northern Minnesota. In the fall of 1935, Bill was diagnosed with cancer, and he passed away on November 25, 1935. As Marge remembered, her mother "decided it was sink or swim," took out a loan against their house in Minneapolis, and invested the proceeds in the resort. Marge stayed with family in Minneapolis during the school year, and joined Lucille at the resort every summer. Marge earned her keep cleaning cabins (and fish), waiting tables, carrying water from the well, hauling wood and doing whatever other chores needed to be done to make the resort a success. In 1938, Marge registered as a freshman at St. Margaret's Academy, where she made numerous life-long friendships. She graduated from St. Margaret's in June of 1941, and headed back up north with Lucille. In the winter of 1944, Lucille was diagnosed with cancer. The decision was made to sell Northland Lodge, and the sale was completed in the spring of 1945. Lucille and Marge returned to their home in Minneapolis, where Lucille passed away in December 1945. Marge found a job at Multigraph Corporation, which led to an even better job at Honeywell, where she worked for nine yearsand met the man who would later become her husband & our father/grandfather, Ed Jonak. Marge and Ed were married in February 1954. In June 1955, Marge and Ed moved into the "dream home" they had designed and built on Peninsula Road in Medicine Lake. In February 1959, they were visited at their home by prospective adoptees Michael (then 3 1/2 years old) and Marianne (18 months old). As Marge recalled: "On February 17, [the social worker] called and asked how we felt about the children, and after our comments she announced they would bring them to the house with their belongings on the following day." But that was only the beginning: In the spring of 1962, Marge was happily surprised to find herself pregnant. In the fall of 1962, the family was blessed with the arrival of our "little sister," Molly. Shortly before Molly's birth, the family had moved to their new home in Fridley, where all three children grew up. Marge was a "stay-at-home Mom," which was a wonderful thing for her children. In addition to keeping a beautiful house, cooking, cleaning, etc., she was able to spend some quiet time enjoying her favorite hobbies, painting and photography. Marge was an accomplished artist, and later branched out into other media, including stained glass and wood carving. She was also an aspiring musician, and gained proficiency on everything from the banjo to the guitar to the old Hammond organ. Sadly, Ed was diagnosed with cancer in early 1986, and died that June. After a few years, Marge moved to a comfortable townhome in Coon Rapids, where she lived until her passing. She missed Ed dearly, but found ways to stay active and engaged. One of her great passions was golf. She became a long-term member at Bunker Hills golf course in Coon Rapids, and enjoyed many rounds (of golf that is) with her friends in the Bunker Hills Ladies League. She also continued to create artistically, and to enjoy and encourage her children and grandchildren (and, eventually, great-grandchildren). As time passed, she nurtured friendships from as far back as her childhood, in addition to providing her kids (and their kids) with boundless love and affection. (Marge wanted us to mention that she truly was a "people person" who loved and was loved by friends and family.) We all have such happy memories of holidays spent together at Marge's house, and the traditions that were created and continued over so many years. All of you reading this who knew her will smile in recalling the seemingly endless energy and generosity that she brought to whatever task was at hand. She was a good and faithful friend, a wonderful mother, a creative, joyful and loving individual, and the epitome of the can-do spirit of the "Greatest Generation." She was also a devout Catholic, and as she began to approach the end of her life, she often expressed the joy she felt in being reunited with her mother and father, her husband, and so many dear relatives and friends. We will all miss her terribly, but we also take comfort in the example she set of how to live life to its fullest, to face adversity with determination, and to keep friends and family close in our hearts. We want to extend special thanks to the staff at J.A. Wedum Residential Hospice in Brooklyn Park (and in particular to "favorite" nurses" Anne and Meta) for their kindness and caring, and to Angie and Dave Nelson, who did so much for Marge during their fourteen years as neighbors and friends. Visitation will be held from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m. on Thursday, May 2 at Billman-Hunt Funeral Chapel, 2701 Central Avenue NE, Minneapolis, with Celebration of Life at 6:00. Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated on Friday, May 3 at 10:00 a.m. at Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church in northeast Minneapolis. Private interment at Fort Snelling National Cemetery.
