Marian Emma Knutson was born April 16, 1932, at the home of her parents, John and Cecelia (Schneberger) Tieskotter, in Calmar. She received her education at country schools before attending a Catholic school in Fort Atkinson through the eighth grade. She then worked at cleaning houses in the Lawler area while also taking care of her parents — beginning a life that included hard work, caring and kindness to those around her. On Nov. 5, 1953, she married Juel Knutson at Our Lady of Mt. Carmel Church in Lawler, and the couple would eventually welcome six children — Alice, John, Norman, Ann and twins Laura and Laurie. After they were married, they lived on the Knutson farm southwest of Jerico for several years, where Marian was an excellent caretaker to both Juel’s father and uncle. Marian stayed at home raising what became a busy household until the twins headed off to kindergarten. Then Marian began working at the Town Talk Cafe, which was located where the current Casey’s store is and where a hamburger could be had for 75 cents and French fries cost a mere 50 cents. Juel was working at B&P Silo Company. Her children remembered the good times they had eating where Mom cooked, but though she worked from 6 a.m. to 2 p.m. virtually every day, Marian more times than not had cookies waiting for her children when they returned home from school. In 1977, she left the Town Talk to become a cook at Home Care Manor, now New Hampton Nursing and Rehabilitation, where she loved preparing meals for nursing home residents and their visitors. Her advice to her children was simple: Take care of your children. And Marian was a doting grandmother, who loved having sleepovers, and singing songs like “You Are My Sunshine,” which was one of her all-time favorites. She loved attending anything and everything her grandchildren were a part of. She had an affinity for gardening, canning, sewing, playing cards, singing and, of course, cooking. Marian was one of those people who made every day special, but she made those special days — holidays, birthdays — extra special. When she retired on Dec. 30, 1996, she remained active and loved spending time with her family and friends. Juel passed away on Nov. 8, 2011, and in her later years, she loved watching sunrises and told her family it would “be a good day with the sun shining.” Even when she was diagnosed with heart disease, she put up a good fight and was always there for her children and grandchildren. In the last year of her life, she was grateful for the caregiving her daughters Alice and Laurie, son Norman and her son-in-law Tom provided for her. Marian will be remembered by her family for the love she gave and the sacrifices she made for them. Those who will cherish the memories of Marian include her children, Alice (Tom) Rasing of New Hampton, John (Cindy) Knutson of Sumner, Norman (Marcia) Knutson of New Hampton, Ann (Gary) Johnson of Saude, Laura (Doug) Alitz of Mason City, and Laurie Gebel of New Hampton; her grandchildren, Melissa (Steve McKinstry) Knutson of Cedar Falls, Ashley (Adam) Kirchhoff of Austin, Minnesota, Samantha Knutson of Denver, Colorado, Christina Knutson of Salt Lake City, Utah, Mitchell (Joey Mamen) Knutson of Chicago, Dan Knutson of New Hampton, Eli (Lisa) Johnson of Saude, Thadeus (Deb) Johnson of Colwell, Joel (Kimberly Meyer) Gebel of Ionia, and Jenny (Jay Bergeson) of New Hampton; and her great-grandchildren, Kinley Gemma and Oliver Kirchhoff, Ethan, Addison and Brinley Johnson, and Austin Kleppe. She was preceded in death by her husband of 58 years, Juel; three sisters, Elvira “Vera” Tierney, Leona Meissen and Bernadette Kruse; and three brothers, Andrew Tieskotter, Roman Tieskotter and Wilfred Tieskotter.
