O.T. Ness officiating. Burial was made in the Grand Marais cemetery. Mrs. Bolstad was born in Norway, April 18, 1850, and came to this country in 1879, settling near Willmar. Shortly after she moved to this city and has been a resident here for the past 45 years. She had been ill for about three weeks, and her death was not entirely unexpected. Her husband, John Bolstad, a son, Norval, both of whom are at the family home, and Mrs. Martin Haugen of this city, a sister, survive her. ========================================================================= Copyright Joy Paulson 2006.
