Bertha Norby Is
Called To Rest                (From the collection of Vivian Norby Andersen)

	Bertha Norby, 74, one of the pioneers of the Soldier community, died 
early Monday morning at the Lutheran hospital in Sioux City.  Although she had 
not been doing well since entering the hospital several weeks ago with a 
broken hip caused by a fall on the ice, her passing came as a shock to her 
many friends and relatives.
	Bertha was always active and every day would make the trip 
from “Morningside” to the post office.  It was on one of these trips that she 
fell.  Mrs. Norby had always been active in church work.
	Funeral services were held at Soldier Lutheran Church at 2:00 o’clock 
Wednesday, March 22.  Pastor Maynard Moen officiated.  Mrs. Norman C. Hanson 
was soloist and sang “Softly and Tenderly” and “I Heard The Voice of Jesus 
Say.”  She was accompanied at the organ by Miss Janice Olson.	
	Burial was in Soldier Valley Cemetery under the direction of Pearson 
Funeral Home.  Pallbearers were Jay Watson, Vernon Clemon, Harry Andersen, Art 
Glau, Glen Rustin and Kleon Ballantyne.
	Bertha Norby was born in Valders, Norway, May 15, 1887.  She was 
confirmed in the Lutheran Church there on April 6, 1902.
	She passed away at the Lutheran hospital in Sioux City on Monday, 
March 20 after being confined there for several weeks due to a fall.  She was 
73 years, 10 months and five days old.
	She came to the United States on April 6, 1910.  She was united in 
marriage to John Norby at Sioux City in March 1913.  To this union one son was 
born.	
	Surviving are the son, John Clifford of Minneapolis, Minn., three 
grandchildren and several nieces and other relatives and friends.
