Mass of Christian Burial was Saturday, November 18, 2017 at St. Joseph’s Catholic Church in Turton, SD. Reverend Michael Kelly and Deacon Gordon Richard officiatee.

They raised six children and farmed together in the Conde area until Robert passed away in 1976. Gwendolyn later married Carroll Bollerslev in Doland, SD. After his passing, she eventually married William Schunk in Lake Andes, SD. Gwendolyn was God fearing and was very faithful in her beliefs. She was a great cook and will always be remembered for her delicious pies. Her children remember special treats during hard times on the farm. She would deep fry bread dough and allow the children to add butter and sugar – a treat known to this day as “dough gob.” Gwendolyn enjoyed vegetable gardening but her true passion was bingo!
