The Belding Banner, Thursday, July 3, 1947


Jens J. Rasmussen died Saturday at 3 p.m. at the Newhall Nursing Home at Morley 
where he was removed Tuesday from the Edmore Lutheran home for the aged.  He 
had been in poor health for a year and was moved to Morley when his condition 
became serious enough to need the special care of a nurse.  He formerly lived 
in Trufant and moved to Orleans in 1913. His wife preceded him in death in 
1942.  After her death he lived with his daughter, Mrs. Esther Hall, 222 Putney 
St., and since 1943 had made his residence at the home in Edmore.  

Funeral services were held Monday at 2:30 at Holy Cross Lutheran church of 
which he was a member and he helped in many ways in the building of the 
church.  Rev. Paul T. Gutknecht officiated at the service, Mrs. Elmore Lasco 
furnished the organ music and duets were sung by Mrs. Gutknecht and Claude 
Johnson.  Burial was beside his wife in Orleans cemetery.  Pall bearers were 
Amos Bolster, Gus Jacoby, Anker Vie, Lynn Higgins, Frank VanVlerlah and Elmer 
Lasco.

Attending the funeral from out of the city were Mr. and Mrs. Frank Larson of 
Lansing; his sons and wives, Mr. and Mrs. Peter Rasmussen of Alpena and Mr. and 
Mrs. Vego Rasmussen of Kindee.  Other survivors are a daughter, Mrs. Esther 
Hall, nine grandchildren and eight great grandchildren.
