The care center is located three miles from her childhood home, where she was born on March 11, 1914, the seventh child of Hugh and Ve Starr Tweedy. She attended Parsons and Cedar Falls Teachers College. She then taught at Viele and Liberty one-room country schools near Montrose before teaching at Argyle three more years. She loved being a teacher and was a member of Retired Teacher's association for the rest of her life. She marrried Merton Lind of Argyle in 1939 and moved to the Lind Farm where she lived the next 60 years, raising three children, being a farm wife and serving her community. She loved the outdoors. She often set out with a walking stick to hunt mushhrooms, gather hickory nuts and wildflowers, or simply to walk, expecially if it was raining. When she walked with others, she was always in the lead; outdoors, she was in her essence. Her last walking stick, which she used until she broke her leg in 2002, made of sassafras, will be buried with her. She was nourished by friendships and family gatherings as much as by the land she walked on. Suvivors include: her children, Janet LInd Hewitt and her husband, Geof, of Calais, Vt., Jacob Lind and his wife, Deanna, of Argyle, James Lind and his wife, Janis, of Leadville, Colo,; five grandchildren, ERinn Lind of Gilbert, Ariz., Shannon Brownell of Clarendon Hills, Ill., Megan Fox of Dallas, Texas, Ben Hewitt of Cabot, Vt., and Anna Lind Hewitt of Northampton, Mass.; four great-grandchildren, Reagan Lind Brownell, Nathaniel Brownell, Fin Hewitt and Rye Hewitt; two sisters, Elizabeth Dresser of Montrose and Virginia Pezley of ARgyle; a brother, David Tweedy of Montrose, and her caregivers. She was preceded in death by her husband in 1999; four brothers, James, kenneth, Hughie and Jay; and four sisters, Mildred, Katheryn, Ve and Florence. Services will be at 11 a.m. Tuesday in Melrose United Methodist Church, rural Argyle, with the Rev. John Abraham and Elaine Tweedy Foley officiating. Burial will be in the Scandinavian Cemetery. Visitation is from 10 to 11 a.m. Tuesday at the church. Memorials may be made to the Scandinavian Cemetery, 2060 300th St., Montrose. Vigen Memorial Home, Keokuk, is in charge of arrangements.
