LUELLA MATILDA MARIA CARR OBIT, #675T

Name and date of newspaper unknown



MRS. HARTWELL CARR, YOUNG MOTHER, DIES

The entire community was saddened on Monday morning when Mrs. Hartwell 

Carr, young wife and mother, passed away at a Moorhead hospital. She 

had been ill for the past six weeks from an internal infection 

resulting from stomach influenza.



Luella Butenhoff was born near Baker March 21, 1908, the oldest 

daughter of A. G. Butenhoff and his late wife. She attended local 

schools and was confirmed in the Sabin Trinity Lutheran church. She had 

passed her 33rd milestone on Friday, march 21.



On June 22, 1932, she was married to Hartwell Carr at Sabin, and they 

have since resided on a farm in the Baker-Barnesville vicinity.



There are two small daughters who survive with the bereaved husband: 

Glennys LoVesta, 7, and June Elaine, 4. Others surviving her are her 

father, A. G. Butenhoff, Sr.; eight brothers, Fred of Hampton, Iowa, 

Carl, Albert Jr., Theodore, Edwin, William, Clarence and Leonard, all 

of the Baker area; and one sister, Evelyn, now Mrs. Irving Sether, of 

Carlisle.



Death came to Mrs. Carr on Monday, March 24, at 9 o'clock in the 

morning at the hospital where she had been a patient for two weeks. Her 

husband was with her. She will be greatly missed by all who knew her. 

She loved her home and family and was an ideal wife and mother. For the 

past seasons she has acted as a leader in the Wagner-Alliance 

Homemakers group.



The remains were brought to the farm home of her father Wednesday 

afternoon and lay in state until Thursday, when they were taken to the 

Trinity Lutheran church near Sabin for the last rites. Rev. Paul 

Schumm, pastor, conducted the funeral service.



Pallbearers were Howard McEvers, Kenneth James Carr, Virgil Carr, 

Chester Possehl, Arnold Butenhoff and Rudy Possehl of Comstock. Burial 

was in the Barnesville cemetery. It was one of the largest funerals 

ever held in this vicinity. The floral offerings were many and 

beautiful. There were also a number of mission memorials.



Among those who came from a distance to attend the last rites were Mr. 

and Mrs. Fred Butenhoff, Mrs. George Rohde, Hampton, Iowa; Mr. and Mrs. 

William Tegtmeyer and two sons Clarence and William Jr., Britt, Iowa; 

Mr. and Mrs. Keith Riley, Glenn Riley, Mrs. Harry Smith, Harvey Carr, 

all of Iowa Falls, Iowa; Mr. and Mrs. Oscar P. Peterson of Georgetown; 

Mr. and Mrs. Fred Hoeneman and daughter, Mr. and Mrs. Fred Possehl,
