Bio
Hello! my name is Jerry; I'm retired and I'm the only son and child of my biological father LeRoy Clifford Haugen #39138978. I was raised on a farm near Wolford, North Dakota. As a young man I spent 22 years in law enforcement, have a bachelor's in public administration and 1991 graduate of the prestigious Northwestern University School of Police Staff and Command, a 1973 student of what was one of the last schools conducted by the U.S Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs what is known today as the DEA, among many specialized schools too numerous to mention. Always a farmer by heart, never passed up the opportunity to jump into a farm tractor over the years and have restored many classic farm tractors.
My father LeRoy had enlisted in the United States Army and had been in military service for 5 years. He had served in both Korea and Japan for 3 of those years with the Eighth Army. He had been stationed at Ft. Sheridan, Ill and later transferred to Ft. Lincoln ND with the North Dakota Military District.
On 6/3/52 he was a passenger in a motor vehicle struck from behind by a passenger bus near Wilton, ND in Burleigh County. LeRoy died from injuries sustained in that motor vehicle accident the morning of 6/4/52 at a St. Alexius hospital in Bismarck, ND.
I have a gold star I've kept in my collection with photos and other memorabilia he brought back from Korea and Japan. After I discovered this website with no information about my father other than a photo of his gravestone, I felt it was important to post some photos I have along with his obituary to honor his memory.
There were 10 children born to Helmer and Louise Haugen according to a newspaper obituary I acquired. They are Bert, Carl, Alfred, Lloyd, Nels, LeRoy, Helen, Lillian, Edith, and Marion Mott.
