OBITUARY OF MRS.	
HARVEY LALONE                       (From the collection of Vivian Norby 
Andersen)

	Funeral services were held for Mrs. Harvey Lalone, the former Beatrice 
Swain, at Dunlap Friday.  Mrs. Lalone was killed near her home when another 
car came off a side road and hit her car broadside.
	Beatrice Swain, daughter of Mr. and Mrs.    Nels Swain, was born May 
12, 1908 at Soldier, Iowa.  She passed away at Rose Creek, Minn. On Sept. 12, 
1961 at the age of 53 years and 4 months.
	When an infant she was baptized in the Soldier Lutheran Church.  She 
was later confirmed in the same church on February 4, 1933.  After graduating 
from high school she taught in the Monona county rural schools.  She was also 
active in the Methodist church for many years.
	On August 6, 1937 she was married to Harvey Lalone at the Little Brown 
Church in Nashua, Iowa.  They lived in Panama, Iowa for six years and then 
moved to Spirit Lake where they spent four hears.  In 1949 they moved to Rose 
Creek, Minnesota where they were living at the time of her death.
	She was preceded in death by her parents, one sister and three 
brothers.  She is survived by her husband, Harvey, two daughters, Mrs. Wayne 
Clark of Lakefield, Minnesota and Mrs. Bernard Cohrs of Spirit Lake, Iowa; one 
son, Jack Lalone of Spirit Lake, Iowa; 7 grandchildren and three brothers, 
Norval Swain of Lynnwood, California and Ole and Roy Swain of Soldier, Iowa.
	Funeral services were held in the First Methodist Church in Dunlap on 
September 15, the Rev. Arthur A. Hamann officiating.  Mrs. Robert Mitchell was 
organist.  Mrs. Arthur A. Hamann was soloist and sang, “My Jesus As Thou Wilt” 
and “Take My Hand, Precious Lord.”  Bearers were Clifford Thoreson, Howard 
Holverson and Hilman Olson of Soldier, Voyle Blackman of Moorhead, Lyle 
Outhouse of Woodbine and Earl Howard of Dunlap.
I cannot say, and I will not say
	That she is dead – she is just away,
With a cheery smile and a wave of
	her hand,
   She has wandered into an un-	
	known land,
And left us dreaming how very fair
  Its needs must be, since she lingers
	there.

And you – O you, who the wildest
	yearn
   For the old time step and the
	glad return—
Think of her faring on, as dear
    In the love of there as the love of
	here.	
Think of her still as the same, I say:
   She is not dead – she is just away.
