I had the pleasure of knowing Joe for several years. He was in the Children's home with my Dad and Aunt: Selmer and Sophie (Judy) Hilstad. We visited Joe many times at his garage. We loved his sense of humor. I was sorry to hear of his passing. Unfortunately, my Dad, Selmer passed away in 1989 and my Aunt Judy just passed away 11-6-10. She was 94 and it was time, but will be missed forever. Thank you. Wilma Lee whilstad@msn.com
These are excerpts from the monthly newsletter started in August 2005,
for the remaining children who lived at Wild Rice Lutheran Children's
Home in Twin Valley, Minnesota.
Photographs, stories, memories and news are shared by them. The home
was destroyed by fire in March of 1931, so many things were lost.
My mother Selma Maudal Hamilton, and her five brothers and sisters went
to live at the home on May 6, 1923. We now live in Glendale,
California.
