Norma J. Dahl, age 98, was born in Glencoe March 8, 1918, and died in Glencoe Nov. 19, 2016.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Edwin Mielke and Della Mielke; sister, Mary Falkenhagen; brother, John “Bud” Mielke, and her husbands, Julius Lindh and Gordan Dahl.
She is survived by her sons, John (Cindy) Lindh of Sonoma, California, Richard (Ruth) Lindh of Minneapolis and Paul (Lynne) Dahl of Minneapolis. She was blessed with five grandchildren, Christopher Lindh, Juliana (Mark) Lassiter, Brittany (Tim) Johnson, Nick Dahl and Alexa (Dillon) Aretz. She also is survived by two great-grandchildren, Connor Lassister and Anja Johnson.
She leaves a legacy of bridge, lefse and sugar cookies to her friends in Glencoe. A word of warning is in order to any heavenly bridge partners she may have, “Don’t lead from kings and have a very good reason to bid a four-card suit.”
In lieu of flowers, donations will be accepted by the family and donated to the First Congregational Church of Glencoe.
An announcement and date for a celebration of Norma’s life will be posted in this paper the summer of 2017.
