Louise Elaine Langness
14 Nov 1926 – 29 Nov 2014
Louise Langness celebrated her 88th birthday on November 14, 2014.
Louise passed away Saturday evening, November 29th, in her condo with family present, which was just the way she wanted. She enjoyed a food-filled Thanksgiving in her home with her family. The only better way would have been in her recliner watching the Twins win the World Series, since she was such an avid Twins fan.
Louise was born in Wheaton, MN. During the War, she and her parents worked at an air craft maintenance facility in Utah. After the War, she attended Dakota Business College and worked at the Fargo Police Department where she met her husband Curtis, whom she married in 1948. As her children were growing, she was active as a Cub Scout Den Mother, involved in Peace Lutheran Altar Guild, an active member of Elkettes and knitted like crazy with her knitting machine and the F-M Knitting Guild. During many holiday seasons she made thousands of krumkakkes and sandbakkles for the Metropolitan 12 Days of Christmas.
In her later years, she rejoiced in her children's, grand children's, and great grand children's activities. She welcomed her frequent visits from her "favorite sister", Norma and her husband Jim Jung (Browns Valley, MN), and their six daughters and their families. She loved that at her age she was computer literate and enjoyed keeping up with friends and family on email and FaceBook and the fact that she ordered her groceries on line. She enjoyed her daily Sudoku puzzles, cross word puzzles and crypto quips. She was delighted that these activities kept her mind sharp.
Louise was preceded in death by her parents Ray and Alta Harker (Rosholt, SD); her husband Curtis Langness, retired Fargo police captain; and son Cal Langness and his wife Sandy Frank Langness.
She greeted each day with "Good Morning God. This is Louise checking in." And now, she is with Him.
