St. Ansgar Enterprise June 1993
Funeral services for Willard Edward Feldt, 78, who died Sunday, June 13, 1993,
were held Wednesday, June 16 at the St. John's Lutheran Church, Rock Township,
Mitchell County, IA. with the Rev. Stephen Engelstad officiating.
Willard Edward Feldt, the youngest son of William and Margaret Dreher Feldt,
was born March 06, 1915 at Rock Township, Mitchell County. He was baptized
into the Christian faith by Rev. W. Reiecke on April 13, 1915 and confirmed
April 13, 1930 by Rev. C. J. Kumpf at St. John's Lutheran Church.
He attended rural schools in Rock Township to complete his eighth grade
education.
On June 29, 1941, he was united in marriage to Arlene Miller at the bride's
home in Cushing, Minnesota. They made their home on the family farm east of
Grafton and farmed until 1975 when health problems prompted retirement. For
13 years they lived at their lakeside home on Strawberry Lake, Minnesota.
Willard enjoyed fishing, gardening, wood cutting and four wheeling. He and
Arlene would winter in Texas. In 1988, they purchased a home and returned to
St. Ansgar where he resided until the time of his death. Wherever Willard
made his home he enjoyed socializing with friends and family.
In March of 1993, Willard's sister, Laura, came to live with him. Her
sisterly companionship was a great comfort to him.
Willard was preceded in death by his wife, Arlene, son Graig, his parents,
brothers Alvin, Clarence, Lawrence and Edward Feldt; sisters Mrs. Albert
(Hattie) Zimmerman, Mrs. Kenneth (Alice) Heard and Mabel Feldt.
He is survived by his children; Karen Roberton and husband Gary, St. Ansgar;
