Emil Lindgren
Killed In Crash                             (From the collection of Vivian 
Norby Andersen)

	Emil W. Lindgren, 82, well known farmer of the Preparation area 
between Moorhead and Pisgah, died Saturday of injuries suffered in a car-truck 
collision on the road from Moorhead to Turin which is being paved, on Friday.  
Johnny Conyers, another aged Moorhead resident, who was riding with him, was 
also injured critically.  Mr. Conyers’ son was uninjured.
	The men had visited the Van Iperen pony farm about two miles south of 
the Belvidere cemetery.  As Mr. Lindgren was leaving the farm he evidently 
pulled onto the road in front of the empty batch truck which was returning to 
Turin for another load of cement mixture.  The truck driver was uninjured but 
his truck as well as the car, was badly damaged.
	Funeral services for Mr. Lindgren were held at the Bethesda Lutheran 
church at Moorhead Wednesday at 2:00 p.m.  Rev. Harold E. Koehler officiated.  
Burial was in the Spring Valley cemetery under the direction of Wood funeral 
home of Whiting.
	Mr. Lindgren was born November 8, 1880 at Clinton, Iowa.  He came to 
the Moorhead vicinity in 1905.  He married Bessie Sorenson August 12, 1908 at 
Moorhead.   Mr. Lindgren was a member of Bethesda Lutheran church and was on 
the board of directors of the Monona County Mutual Insurance Co.
	Survivors include the widow; two daughters, Mrs. L. W.  Larson and 
Mrs. D. P. Dyhshopp, both of Spencer; seven grandchildren and three great-
grandchildren.
