She had most recently been a resident at the Good Samaritan Home in Larimore, ND. Bernice was born in Vienna, SD on 13 Dec 1918 to Ole and Synneva Ystaas. She was the 4th of 9 children born to the couple. The family moved to Hillsdale Township in Eddy County, ND where her parents purchased their farm. She attended a country school across the road from their farmstead. Bernice married Erland Hallsten in 1941. She stayed at the farm with her parents until Erland, who served in World War 2, returned home to ND from the war. They raised their four children in Sheyenne, ND. The Sheyenne community cherished Bernice. As a First Lutheran Church member, she served as an LCR leader and assisted with Sunday School. She was also active in the VFW Auxiliary, Homemakers and various card clubs in her later years. Bernice was the quintessential homemaker. She loved spending time with family and friends--visiting, telling stories, entertaining, playing pinocle and occasionally singing a Norwegian tune. She was a genuinely gifted cook, baker and hostess to all who entered her home. Bernice's house was a place of congregation for all. She generously offered baked treats served with hot coffee, a slice of her delicious brown bread or even a kumla dinner to so many over the years. Bernice greatly enjoyed holidays and traveling to be with her family--whether it was the 4th of July in Sheyenne, Thanksgiving and Christmas in Larimore, ND with Steven's family and Janice's family, a trip to Layton, Utah to see Rod's family (most memorably with sisters Millie and Donna (Walt) for the 2002 Winter Olympics), or spending time in Roseburg, OR with JoAnn's family (including visits to Driftwood Shores Resort on the coast.) She treasured frequent calls from her sister Donna in Anoka, MN and was so fortunate to live near Steven, always feeling comforted by his presence. Bernice deeply loved her family and friends. She will forever hold a special place in our hearts. She is survived by her daughter JoAnn (Mike) and their two children, Todd (Melinda) and Traci (Randy); daughter Janice and her two children, Mark (Jeannine) and Jeffrey (Carissa); son Rodney (Sharon) and their four children, Casidy (Olanrewaju), Christa (John), Dax (Marina) and Kyle (Michelle); son Steven (Jackie) and their two children Lindsey and Lacey (Taylor); beloved sister Donna (Walter) and many nieces, nephews, great-nieces and great-nephews. Bernice was great grandmother to 22: Adriann, Grant, Alexandra, Zachary, Kessla, Madison, Sydney, John, Brynn, Ethan, Alexandria, Massimo, Julia, Synneva, Gemma, Ashton, George, Anna, Olen, Maggie, Leona and Nella. Preceded in death were her parents Ole and Synneva Ystaas; husband, Erland Hallsten; brothers Samuel, Elwood and Norris Ystaas; and sisters Ida Ystaas, Gladys Berglund, Edna Ness and Millie Portz.
