Dora Klem’s Obituary
Sometimes I post things here so that I have a record of them somewhere. My great-grandmother died last month and I found her obituary online.
Dora Klem, 104, of Rosemount, died March 9, 2009. She was born Aug. 12, 1904.
She was preceded in death by husband, Nicholas, and son, Jarvis.
She is survived by children, Walter (Donna), Zonia (Raymond) Wilson, Benjamin (Patricia), Olga Lee, Boris (Constance), Eugene (Kathleen) and Antoinette (Ray) Jones; numerous grandchildren, great-grandchildren and great-great-grandchildren; many nieces, nephews and friends.
Visitation and a funeral service were held March 14 at Good Shepherd Evangelical Lutheran Church in Burnsville with the Rev. David Tiarks officiating. Arrangements were made by Henry W. Anderson Mortuary, Apple Valley.
Here is a photo I took of her when I was fourteen years old in 1983:

Hi, I’m related to Dora Klem, she was my great grandmother. I am doing a photography project for school where we use old pictures of our ancestors and great grandparents and such. I was wondering if you have any more of Bubca, becuase my dad couldn’t find any at my grandparents (Ray and Toni)’s house. All they had was the family tree! Thank you, and I’m sorry this is very random..but I just googled it and I saw this come up! Thank you!
