James Oliver Wold, the son of Elmer and Gustava (Johanson) Wold, was born June 1, 1927 at St. Cloud, Minnesota. He attended school at Santiago, Minnesota and served his country in the U.S. Navy during WW II. Following his honorable discharge he returned home and worked for his father in the hardware store. On May 30, 1948 he married Wanda Brown at Our Savior's Lutheran Church in Santiago, MN. They lived in Santiago before moving to Mount Vernon, IL where Jim was a salesman for De Laval Milking Equipment. In 1959 they moved to Glencoe, MN and in 1966 to Garner. Jim began working for AAL Insurance in 1972 and continued until his retirement. He enjoyed wintering in Arizona, golfing, casinos, fishing and deer hunting. He was a member of St. Paul Lutheran Church, Garner VFW Post 5515 and Garner Men's Golf League. Jim is survived by his three children, Candy (Bill) Engstler of Clear Lake, Juli (Michael) Thackery of Ventura and Kerry (Chris) Wold of Danville, IN; grandchildren, Kari (Steve) Jones, Jami (David) Enright, Brian (Emily) Engstler, Dan (Heidi)Jim is survived by his three children, Candy (Bill) Engstler of Clear Lake, Juli (Michael) Thackery of Ventura and Kerry (Chris) Wold of Danville, IN; grandchildren, Kari (Steve) Jones, Jami (David) Enright, Brian (Emily) Engstler, Dan (Heidi) Engstler, Nicholas (Michele) Thackery, Seth (Jennifer) Thackery, Melodee (Dustin) Ward, Samantha (Michael) Quinn and Kayleigh (Cody) Rees; a sister, Judith Modene of Perrysburg, OH; and many nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his parents; wife, Wanda; and two brothers, Norman and Jordan Wold. Jim & Wanda Wold were married 73 years. They died 15 hours apart. Their daughter Candy said they were 96 & 94 and had never been apart. Wanda had Alzheimer's for years. Jim was her caretaker and protector. They lived in the same room at the care center in Garner, Iowa. Tuesday morning, Wanda went first. Their daughter told me, "I think dad was waiting for her to go first as his first response was to fold his hands and pray with my sister and me, thanking Jesus for taking her home and asking Him to now take him too. About 15 hours later on the same day, the Lord granted his plea." 73 years of love. Join me in keeping Jim & Wanda's family in our prayers as they celebrate this incredible love story. Because, as Candy says, "I think we all need stories like this."
