Pallbearers were P. M. Swanson, Miles Spencer, Ben Price, Paul Kruse, Elray Smith and Will Nielson. Burial was made in the Swede Valley cemetery. OBITUARY - Carl Munson was born in Nassjo Parish, Jonkoping County, Province of Smaland, Sweden, April 23, 1876. He was baptized in early infancy and at the age of 15 years, 1891, he was confirmed. The following year, 1892, he left his home for America and for this community, finding work on the farm of his uncle, P.M. Magnuson, located six miles south and two miles east of Ogden. After his uncle's death in 1915 Mr. Munson became the owner of the farm and abode there till a few years ago when he, because of ill health caused by arthritis and rheumatism, had to quit farming. For a time he found home and shelter with some of his children, but later, in the year 1942, he applied for admittance at the Home of the Aged, Madrid, and was admitted. And there he found contentment, good care and understanding friends with whom he could at pleasure converse about bygone days and present world-conditions as well. And so, last Saturday, the 17th, at 9:30 p.m. he had a stroke that affected his right arm and side, but he was as yet able to speak, but a half hour later his power of speech left him, caused, we presume, by another stroke, so he lost consciousness and remained thus till about 9:30 a.m. Tuesday, the 20th, when he quietly passed on at the age of 68 years, 10 months and 27 days. Mr. Munson was married to Miss Johanna Sofia Magnuson, October 15, 1895, and to this union were born nine children, six sons and three daughters, namely Roy, Glen, Anna, Elmer, Edith, Vern, Edna and the twins, Raleigh and Rolland. Of these the following children preceded him in death in the following order: Edna, September 19, 1917; Roy, October, 1926; Elmer, May 29, 1940; Anna, May 29, 1943. Mrs. Munson died March 25, 1940. The living children mourning the loss of a good and loving father are: Glen Munson, Ogden; Mrs. Edith Leiser, Lincoln, Nebraska; Vern Munson, Perry. The son Rolland's home is at Red Oak, Iowa, and Raleigh, being in the government's service is located in the Netherlands East Indies. Mr. Munson has a brother at Tuscon, Arizona, and a sister at Des Moines. He leaves also 16 grandchildren and two great grandchildren. As his pastor since July 3, 1921, til his death, Rev. Eldien had this to say: Munson was a very faithful attendant at the adult Bible class and morning services from his admittance into membership and throughout the years following till his ailment made it almost impossible for him to attend - yea, he came even a long while after he had to use crutches walking from his car into the church. He was of a cheerful temperament and friendly always. God bless his soul! We will remember him. CARD OF THANKS We wish to express our sincere gratitude to our friends and neighbors for their many acts of kindness to us during our late bereavement, the death of our father, Carl Munson. - The Children.
