She passed away at Aksarben Senior Living in Omaha, Nebraska on October 19, 2018 at age 88 years 18 days after a long struggle with Alzheimer’s disease. Velda was raised on the family farms near Naper and graduated from Naper High School in 1948. Velda was united in marriage to James “Jim” Clifford McLaughlin on April 24, 1948 in Burke, South Dakota. Except for a short stay in Los Angeles in 1950-51, Jim and Velda lived in Naper or the nearby area until September, 1969, when they moved to Northwest Arkansas. All five of their children were born in the Burke, South Dakota hospital while they lived in Naper ; Stanley (1948), Sharon (1956), Edith (1958), Michael “Mickey” (1961), and Leah (1968).
