Her mother, Hannah, sailed across the Atlantic from Germany as a child of three with her parents and older brother in 1890. Velda remembered a happy childhood, even though times were hard and money was short. She was the ninth of 11 children. Velda married John L. Welch, of Westerfield, Iowa, on May 14, 1935, two months before her 17th birthday. John was born on a farm east of Westfield, and was of Irish and French-Canadian decent. They farmed in Iowa and were soon blessed with four daughters. In 1947, John and Velda moved to Lake Andes, where John had bought a pool hall. Three more children were born to this union. In 1965, tragedy struck and the couple lost their youngest child, Timothy, at age eight. Seven months later, John succumbed to a heart attack. She is survived by six children: Patricia (Marlo) Stillion, of Wagner; Ellen (Ray) Nobles, of Ocala, FL; Colleen (Myron) Youngbluth, of Paris, TN; Marilyn (Clifford) Aase, of Springfield; John (Bonnie) Welch, of Yankton, and Debbie Welch, of Springfield; 12 grandchildren; 14 great grandchildren; two sisters: Maxine Jorgenson, of Des Moines, IA; and Dorothy Welch, of Akron, IA.
