The Ionia Sentinel-Standard, Saturday, November 3, 2007


Evelyn L. Friesner, 93 (nee Larson), died peacefully after a short illness on 
Nov. 1, 2007 at the Laurels of Mt. Pleasant.

Evelyn was born Aug. 27, 1914 in Baldwinsville, Mass. Her parents Hjalmar and 
Hedwig Larson moved the family to Ionia, Mich. in the early 1920s when Mr. 
Larson took a position at the Michigan State Prison. Evelyn grew up in Ionia 
and graduated from Ionia High School.

She was married to Emory Friesner in 1943 for nearly 30 years who preceded her 
in death. The couple's only son, Bob, died as a result of an auto accident in 
1976. Evelyn's siblings, Helen Myszak, Fred Larson and Dorothy Glasson, all 
preceded her in death.

She worked in the Abstract Office of the Ionia County Court House for many 
years. Before moving into an assisted living facility in Grand Rapids, Evelyn 
was a long time member of the First Christian Church in Ionia. She enjoyed 
traveling and working with ceramics and other crafts. She had a wonderful 
sense of humor and sometimes enjoyed a good laugh at her expense.

She is survived by her nieces Heléne M. Glasson of Prospect Heights, Ill. and 
Dorothy (Lary) McKenna of Boiling Springs, S.C.; stepsons Bruce Friesner 
(January) of Lowell, Mich. and Jack Friesner. She was the fond aunt and great-
aunt of many.

Funeral Services will be conducted by Pastor Armand Aronson at 1 p.m., 
Tuesday, Nov. 6, 2007 at the First Christian Church in Ionia. The family will 
receive friends from noon until the funeral at the church. Interment will 
follow at Sunset Memorial Gardens. Contributions may be made to the First 
Christian Church.
