Smith, the daughter of Ole and Rachel Olson, was born May 5, 1913, on the family farm in the Richland area near Elk Point. She attended rural school and Elk Point High School. She married John Molzen on Nov. 29, 1935. They moved to Le Mars, Iowa, and lived there until Mr. Molzen became ill. He passed away soon after and she moved to Elk Point. Church and family were the major things in her life. Edith was very close to her family and spent much time with her brothers and sisters. As a single parent, she took great pride in nurturing her three sons and teaching them to be honest and caring citizens, Christians and parents. She enjoyed watching them grow to become loving parents and generous individuals, who placed the needs of others ahead of personal achievements. She dearly loved them, their wives and her many grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Grateful for having shared her life and cherishing her memory are Edith's sons and their wives, Ron and Sharon Molzen of Eggertsville, N. Y., Colin and Cindy Molzen of Woodbridge, Va., and Gary and Geneva Molzen of Sioux Falls, S. D.; 15 grandchildren; 24 great-grandchildren; many nieces and nephews; a stepson, Eldon Molzen of Mesa, Ariz.; and a stepdaughter, Joyce Peck of Joplin, Mo. In addition to her first husband, John, Edith was preceded in death by her parents; three brothers; two sisters; and her second husband, Vern Smith. The Sioux City Journal, March 19, 2002
