Read More	Published in The Fontanelle Observer Sept. 2015 Darlene Alberta Herr was born on June 13, 1920, the oldest daughter of Oscar and Emma (Baudler) Gross at the farm, one mile east of Fontanelle, Iowa. She was baptized on July 7, 1920 and confirmed at Emmanuel Lutheran Church in Fontanelle, Iowa, where she remained a lifelong, faithful member. On June 29, 1941, Darlene was united in marriage to Gilbert Herman Herr and began their married lives on the farm where she grew up. To this union two sons were born: Ronald John and Galen Gilbert. As a youth, she helped on the family farm and at the Gross Cabin Park, cleaning the cabins and washing many bed sheets with her sisters and mother. She was a dutiful big sister, keeping track of and caring for her younger sisters, Berthie and Violet. Darlene enjoyed embroidery, baking, canning and cooking. She also taught Bible and Sunday school for many years, sharing her faith and touching the lives of many children. She also enjoyed gardening and her flowers. She was a loving mother and especially enjoyed being a grandmother to her five grandchildren: John, Stephen, Philip, David, and Maggie. Darlene also had a passion for genealogy, and spent many hours researching and compiling family histories and keeping and updating the information. She had an impressive memory for details and dates. She enjoyed visiting with friends and family both home and abroad. Darlene and Gilbert were fortunate to have traveled to Germany to visit with family and enjoy the European countryside. In her later years, she enjoyed living on the farm where she grew up, watching birds and the animals. She particularly enjoyed Elizabeth Baudler’s sheep and the baby lambs in the spring. She was preceded in death by her parents, son Ronald, sister Berthie, brothers-in-law Eldon Erbes, Robert Bigelow and William Herr, and sister-in-laws Irene Tilk and Opal Herr.
