Obituary

Erick O. Gaarden was born in Gol, Halingdal, Norway, on June 16, 1872, the son of Ole and Barbara Gaarden. He came to America with his parents in 1876 and settled on a farm in the Spring Creek community where he lived until 1949 when he moved to Hanley Falls, Minnesota. There he lived until 1951 when he came to live with his nephew, Arthur Gordon, of Clarkfield, Minnesota. He was confirmed by Rev. Talakson at St. Lucas Church in Normania Township, and has been an active member of the Spring Creek Lutheran Church many years. Erick suffered a stroke on May 16, 1957, and was taken to the Clarkfield Community Hospital where he passed away the following day. He had attained the age of 84 years, 11 months and one day. He was preceded in death by his parents, two sisters, and six brothers. Left to mourn his departure are his nephews, Arthur of Clarkfield, and Bayard of Montevideo, Minnesota, and his niece, Ruth (Mrs. Willard Johnson) of Minneapolis. Erick was a kind and loving uncle.
