The Lord called Lela to her heavenly home on Thursday, May 4, 2017 at Avera Rosebud Country Care Center in Gregory at 77 years of age. Lela, the youngest of eight children, grew up on the family farm near Herrick. Her family were members of the German Congregational Church near Carlock until the church closed.
