Memorial contributions may be made to the Maisel Christensen Memorial Fund, in care of Johnson Family Funeral Home, PO Box 246, Stuart, Iowa 50250 (515) 523-1200. ..Maisel was born July 30, 1916 at the old Cress farm ½ mile east of Canby, Iowa to Leonard "Pete" and Margaretha Sophia Katrina Wahe Kinney. She grew up on a farm in the Canby area and attended the rural Walnut #9 country school. She was united in marriage to Max D. Christensen on December 2, 1937. They celebrated their 59 wedding anniversary prior to Max's passing on September 10, 1997. This marriage was blessed with four children. They are Delbert and wife Janet Christensen of Council Bluffs, Iowa, Larry and wife Evelyn of Moran, Kansas, Donna Christensen of Menlo, Iowa, and Kenneth Christensen of Casey, Iowa. ..Maisel was especially fond of her 8 grandchildren and 16 great grandchildren. They are Karen and Greg Hansen and Shane and Amanda of Omaha, Nebraska; Kelly and Paul Mundt and Maxx of Fountain Valley, California; Brian and Jill Christensen and Carrie, Emma, Benjamin, Nathan and Isabel of Glenwood, Iowa; Scott and Leslie Christensen and Aidan and Camdan of Plano, Texas; JEF Schildberg and Bailey and Carter of Casey, Iowa; Craig and Meribah Christensen and Hannah and Caster of Council Bluffs, Iowa; Nicole and Jeremy Jordan and Zachary and Jacob of Casey; and Kenna and Kelly Freestone, of Casey, Iowa. During the final years of her life she enjoyed the constant companionship of her best friend "Puppy." ..After their marriage, Maisel and Max lived in rural Canby and Redfield before making their home in rural Casey in 1947. Maisel helped her husband on the family farm and during the 60's worked for Look Magazine in Des Moines before returning to be a fulltime homemaker and grandmother. ..Maisel always enjoyed a spirited game of cards, especially when she was winning. One of her favorite pastimes was playing pitch and pinochle. She also enjoyed cooking, gardening, canning, and sewing. Maisel made quilts for her entire family. Maisel had many wonderful memories of the years she and Max wintered in Texas. ..She was a member of the Casey United Methodist Church, Ladies Circle and the Menlo Rebekah's. Max and Maisel founded the Casey Saddle Club and won 1st place in many parades throughout the years. She served as an assistant leader of the Thompson Homemakers 4-H Club and for 10 years she was involved in collecting money for the Pony Express Riders for Crippled Children in Central Iowa. ..The family has fond memories of fishing trips with Maisel and Max in Minnesota and Lake Anita. Much to our chagrin, it was Maisel who usually caught "the big one." ..Maisel was preceded in death by her parents, and two brothers, Virgil and his wife Pauline Kinney and Donald Kinney. ..She is also survived by a sister-in-law Lottie Kinney of Atlantic, Iowa and a host of friends all of whom will miss her greatly.
