Rasmussen, Anne M. (1887 - 28 MAY 1960)

Funeral services were held Tuesday noon at a Lutheran Church in Des Moines, Iowa, for a former Withee (Clark Co., Wis.) resident whose remains were then returned to Withee for burial.

Mrs. Soren Rasmussen passed away at her home in Des Moines Saturday, suffering from a heart condition.  Funeral services were held at 2:00 o’clock this afternoon from the Nazareth Lutheran Church, Withee, with burial being made in the family lot.  The parish pastor Rev. Byrl Knudsen officiated.

Mrs. Rasmussen was born in 1887, being 73 years of age, in Cedar Falls, Iowa.  After her marriage to Soren Rasmussen the couple made their home at Withee, leaving there in 1954 when they moved to their present home in Des Moines.
