Burial was at St. Joseph Cemetery Prairieburg. Lawrence Yanda was born Nov. 17, 1920, near Prairieburg. He was the son of Ludwig (Lou) and Anna (Ann) Holub Yanda. On June 30, 1948, Lawrence and Dorothy Trumm were united in marriage at St. Peter Church, in Temple Hill. He farmed the Yanda Century Farm in Jones County, Cass Township. He was a longtime dairy farmer, transitioning to hogs and cattle in recent years. He was a Crow's seed corn dealer for over 40 years. He received the Jones County Dairy Producers lifetime achievement award. In 1961, he won the Jones County corn picking contest then went on to win the regional contest, in Marion, before placing at the National Corn Picking Contest, in Chillicothe, Mo. He loved the land and farming, making it his life and his legacy. Lawrence was the longest, continuous member of St. Patrick Catholic Church in Anamosa. He was a member of the Knights of Columbus for over 50 years, lifetime member of the National Farmers Organization, and the Izaak Walton League in Anamosa. He was a Cass Township trustee and worked as an election volunteer. He spent countless hours volunteering for his church and community. He enjoyed popcorn, lemon drops, kolaches and a cold beer. He loved the annual "boys only" fishing trip to Canada with his son and grandson, also Minnesota fishing trips with his two brothers-in-law, Bobby and George. Visiting with family and friends or just about anyone could easily consume an afternoon. He loved dancing to western swing music with Dorothy at area ballrooms, especially the Prairiemoon Ballroom with the Dave Dighton Band.
