13607	W. malte figurbilder og portretter, interiører, blomsterbilder og oppstillinger og norske landskap fra Øst- og Sørlandet, særlig fra Telemark. Dessuten laget hun en rekke by- og folkelivsskildringer fra opphold i Frankrike, Danmark og Spania. Hele hennes produksjon var sterkt bundet til det naturalistiske formspråk. De tidlige bildene var preget av en noe mørk, men sikker fargebehandling og en sirlig penselføring. Senere ble koloritten lysere, i enkelte bilder litt søtladen, og malemåten ble friere, med brede, spontane strøk i retning av en mer impresjonistisk naturoppfatning. W.s bilder viste størst innflytelse fra Søren Onsager, og i mindre grad impulser fra de franske lærere. ( https://nkl.snl.no/Signy_Willums )	Hassel, Signy Willums f (I35477)

13610	WILLARD EVAN HANSEN (1916 - 2015) Obituary Willard Evan Hansen, longtime Mount Vernon resident and educator, died March 18, 2015. Willard was born July 15, 1916, in Ellensburg, Wash., the fourth of five children of Henry and Ella (Kaaro) Hansen, both of Norwegian descent. The pioneering Hansen family operated a 225-acre farm northwest of Ellensburg on the Yakima River. The children worked on the farm but also attended a two-room country school, walking five miles each day round-trip. The family lost the farm during the Great Depression in 1930, then moved nearby where they leased 100 acres to grow potatoes, eventually regaining financial independence. Willard graduated from Ellensburg High School in 1934, then completed college at Washington State University where he earned a teaching certificate in 1939. He began his teaching career at Redmond High School, where he taught for three years. While there he met Helen Pope, whose parents owned Redmond Hardware. Willard and Helen were married on July 7, 1942. They made their home in Mount Vernon, where Willard taught high school farm shop and agriculture classes. Sons Evan and Roger were born in 1944 and 1947, respectively. In 1946, Willard and Helen bought the Skagit Grain and Seed Company, which they operated until 1965. That fall, the state agricultural education office asked Willard to teach a new college-level farm management class, which he continued to do at Skagit Valley Community College for many years. Willard also led tours to several farming regions; this evolved into sightseeing tours to California, Hawaii, New England and Europe (especially Norway). Willard retired from teaching in 1979 but continued leading tours until age 88. Helen passed away in 1983. Willard then married Clara Elde. In 2003 Willard and Clara moved to Mountain Glen Retirement Center. Clara died in 2013. Willard continued to live at Mountain Glen until his death. Willard was a longtime volunteer in Kiwanis, well known for preparing delicious barbequed salmon at countless Kiwanis fundraisers. He remained active into his 90s in Kiwanis, with the Gideons and at Bethany Covenant Church, where he served in various capacities including Sunday School superintendent. He was a member of Bethany Covenant for 73 years. A born-and-bred Norwegian, Willard was known for telling "Sven and Ole" jokes. He loved to entertain his grandchildren with these and other jokes, usually eliciting a few groans. He had a gift for growing flowers and was admired for his beautiful beds and hanging baskets. He was preceded in death by two brothers, Ernest and George Hansen, and sisters Elsie Schilling and Marjorie Swett. Willard is survived by sons Evan (Linda) of Sun Lakes, AZ and Roger (Diane) Hansen of Henderson, NV; grandchildren Dionne (Chris) Dalhamer, Shawn Hansen, Kerry (Joshua) Meskin, Tyler (Denise) Hansen; six great-grandchildren (Stephanie, Alexandra, and Ashley Dalhamer; Zoe and Michael Meskin; Kiana Hansen); step-children Bob (Bonnie), Randy (Becky), and Susan Elde; and numerous beloved nieces and nephews. A celebration of Willard's life is planned for Wednesday, April 1, 2:00 pm at Bethany Covenant Church, 1318 So. 18th St., Mount Vernon, WA 98274. The family is deeply grateful to the staff at Mountain Glen Retirement Center, volunteers from Hospice of the NorthWest, and the caring staff and members of Bethany Covenant Church. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests donations to Bethany Covenant Church Memorial Fund, the Gideons, or a charity of your choice .	Hansen, Willard Evan (I149325)

13613	Walter Frederick «Fritz» Mondale (født 5. januar, 1928) en norskættet amerikansk politiker og medlem av Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party. Han har utdannelse som jurist. Mondale var USAs 42. visepresident 19771981 under president Jimmy Carter. Han satt også to perioder som senator fra Minnesota, og var demokratenes kandidat til presidentvalget i 1984 mot president Ronald Reagan. Mondale utpekte Geraldine A. Ferraro som første kvinnelige visepresidentkandidat. Reagan ble gjenvalgt i et valgskred hvor Mondale bare vant sin hjemstad Minnesota og District of Columbia.[1] Bill Clinton utnevnte Mondale til ambassadør til Japan.[1] I 2002 gjorde Walter Mondale et kort comeback i politikken. Senator Paul Wellstone fra Minnesota døde i en flyulykke elleve dager før valget der han selv stilte til gjenvalg. Demokratene trengte en kandidat som var så kjent at han hadde mulighet til å vinne selv om det var så kort tid til valget. Walter Mondale stilte opp, etter oppfordring fra Wellstones familie. Han tapte valget med to prosentpoeng mot republikaneren Norm Coleman. [1] Familienavnet Mondale kommer av Mundal ved Fjærland i Sogndal kommune. Da han var visepresident besøkte Mondale Norge samt bygda hvor slekten kommer fra, iført lusekofte.[2] Mondale ble i 1995 tildelt storkors av Den Kongelige Norske Fortjenstorden. I 2008 ble han utnevnt til norsk honorær generalkonsul i Minneapolis,[3] en post han hadde til januar 2010. (Wikipedia)	Mondale, Walter Frederick (I11668)

13620	Wayne N. Nelson August 7, 1937 ~ January 17, 2024 Wayne Nelson, 86, of Oslo, MN., died in his home, surrounded by family, after a valiant journey with cancer, on Wednesday, January 17, 2024. Wayne Noble Nelson, was born on August 7, 1937, in Warren, MN., the son of Noble and Irene (Bergman) Nelson. He was raised on the family farm along Highway 1, in Oslo, which his family homesteaded in 1888. Wayne continued this legacy on the land, working on it as a boy, before completing high school at the Northwest School of Agriculture, in Crookston, MN. Upon graduating in 1955, Wayne enlisted in the U.S. Army, and was stationed in Washington, D.C., as a member of the Honor Guard. He assisted with funerals, transported generals, and flanked President Eisenhower in the course of his duties. Wayne turned down re-elistment and the chance to become a sentry at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, preferring to come home to farm the land that he loved. On June 25, 1965, Wayne married Judith Bredeson, a home economics teacher at Oslo High School, and the couple moved onto the family farm. Wayne and Judy raised three children and celebrated 56 years of marriage. Wayne's greatest concerns in life were his wife, family and farm. He loved to work, both hard and diligently. He was involved in every planting and harvest, missing only one year of driving tractor in 2023. For leisure, Wayne spent time with his wife, whether at the lake (with the grandkids, too) or at home. Mowing, driving his beloved convertible or checking on fields and sugar beet piles, were his favorite pastimes. He also enjoyed chatting over coffee at the cafe, and shaking dice for the bill. He and Judy were longtime members of Zion Lutheran Church, in Oslo, and he was also a member of the Oslo Lions, the Oslo American Legion, and was a board member of both Valley State Bank and the Oslo Farmer's Union (Cenex). Wayne is survived by his children: Mark (Stacy) Nelson, Kara (Tim) Pitchford, and Paula (Craig) Nelson; grandchildren: Jacob (Katie) Pitchford, Erik (fiancée, Kayla) Pitchford, Anna Pitchford, Dane Nelson, Kjersten Nelson, Ally Nelson, and Kate Nelson; sisters: Sandy Roiger, and Ilene (Carl) Sherlock; many nieces and nephews; and farming buddy, Trent Stengl. In addition to his wife, Judy, who died on November 3, 2021, Wayne was preceded in death by his parents; and sister, Kathy Lunski. The family would like to thank the Altru Cancer Center's exceptional Staff, especially Dr. Dentchev and Ericka, for their attentive kindness to Wayne these last years.

13621	We are saddened to share that Jon Ingdal passed away peacefully on July 19th surrounded by his family. After a 16 month illness we are deeply grateful he suffers no more. He is survived by his beloved wife of 52 years, Ingrid, son Glen (Carrie), daughter Irene (Chris), brother Lars (Inger) as well as many nieces, nephews, cousins, extended family and his wife's relatives in Norway. A proud Bestefar to Emily (d.2016), Jake, Benjamin, Lily, Gabriel and Pearl. Born to Ragna Kvernmo Ingdal (d.1996) and Gabriel Ingdal (d.1983) in Ingdalen, Sor-Trondelag, Norway, he was raised on the farm along with his older brother, Lars, and younger brother, Erling (d.2013). It was here he learned his work ethic as well as developed a love for the outdoors; hiking, skiing, hunting and fishing. He studied at Skjetlein School of Agriculture for 2 years and served in the Norwegian Air Force at Vaernes, Trondheim. In search of adventure and fortune, he immigrated to Canada in 1958, with a basic grasp of English and $100 from his father in his wallet. He found work on Vancouver Island as a logger and a labourer and it was there he began his 4 year heavy duty mechanic apprenticeship through MacMillan Bloedel. After 5 years in Port Hardy, it was time to try his luck in the big city, Vancouver. He worked at Mack Trucks on Granville Island until his retina detached, and after spending the summer in the hospital, reattachment was unsuccessful leaving him blind in one eye. Unfazed, he quickly got back into the workforce at Isuzu Diesel of BC before taking a job as a marine mechanic at Austin Marine in Vancouver's Coal Harbour where he worked for 6 years. From 1973, until his retirement in 1999, he worked for Finning Tractor in their marine and generator divisions. The job included travel to the northern reaches of Canada, including the Beaufort Sea, NWT and the Yukon. He worked long hours on these trips but came back with a lasting appreciation for indigenous peoples artwork and culture. Always by his side was his wife, Ingrid. He met this lovely Norwegian in Vancouver in 1965 through mutual friends and on August 17th, 1968, they were married in Norway in Ingdalen Chapel. The newlyweds returned to Canada and a short time later welcomed their son, Glen, in 1969 and daughter, Irene, in 1970. They lived in a modest apartment before buying Ingrid's uncle's house on Ferndale St. In 1974 they left the city and made the move to the suburbs of Coquitlam. It was there they enjoyed the next 48 years, raising their kids, gardening, cooking, entertaining, and traveling. Motorhome trips to Yellowstone and Minot, ND, the 24 hour ferry up to Prince Rupert with Glen's family, driving to Seattle to see Irene's family and many Las Vegas trips are only a few of the highlights. Although he emigrated from Norway, he was proud of his heritage and scrimped and saved in order to take his family back to Norway for many vacations that were filled with priceless memories. Welcoming hosts, the door to their home was always open to visitors for dinners, coffee, club meetings or a place to lay your head. If you had traveled far, you were assured a sightseeing trip around Vancouver, Victoria or the Caribou. When the kids were young, Jon and Ingrid were active members of Tronderlaget Nidar and loved to attend dances and show off their dancing skills. Later, they became involved in Norwegian House Society and Jon was a regular volunteer with the 'Tuesday Gang' at the Scandinavian Centre. Manual labour, cooking up potato balls or waffles, he did it all with a smile. He loved to meet, talk and joke with people and will be remembered as a generous life-long friend to many. Through the years, Jon found joy in many interests and hobbies including bridge club, golfing with his buddies as a member of Fort Langley Golf Club, coin-collecting, fishing at Loon Lake, taking his family for a 'Sunday drive', visiting with Finning retirees during their weekly coffee meetings and harness racing at Fraser Downs; but no greater joy than when he could spend time with his grandkids. He loved to visit with them, watching their sporting events and performances, going for walks, teaching them how to fix things, hearing about what they were up to and laughing at their antics. They will miss their Bestefar. A celebration of Jon's life will be held at the Scandinavian Community Centre (6540 Thomas St. Burnaby, BC V5B 4P9) on September 24th, 1-4pm. In lieu of flowers, donations to the Norwegian House Society ? the Scandinavian Centre would be appreciated.

13628	Wesseltoft er en norsk slekt som har navnet fra stedet Vitseltofta i Skåne, Sverige, der en stamfar Jørgen Simonsen (1612-92) var prest. Jørgen Simonsen var sønn til borger i Stavanger, Simon Jacobsen, og ektefellen Johanne Pedersdatter som i 1622 ble brent som heks i Stavanger. Jørgen Simonsen var gift med Anna Pedersdatter Bøgh (død 1703) og både hennes far og farfar hadde vært prest i Vitseltofta. Jørgen og Anna hadde flere barn og datteren Maren Jørgensdatter med ektefelle Samuel Brodersonius var morforeldre til Carl von Linné. Det var Jørgen og Annas sønn Simon Jørgensen Wesseltoft (død 1739 i Skien) som ble stamfar for slekten Wesseltoft i Norge. På 1700- og 1800-tallene bodde slektsmedlemmene særlig i Skien og Grenlandsområdet. En del av Simon Jørgensen Wesseltofts etterkommere brukte etternavnene Simonsen, Jørgensen/Jørgensdatter og Zachariassen. Gjennom generasjoner var det flere av slekten som var svært velstående forretningsfolk i Skien. Seierstad i «Skiens historie» (side 434), skriver at Simon Jørgensens sønner Jørgen og Zacharias Simonsen i 1740-årene i Skien "inntok .. en lederstilling blant byens borgerskap". Familiemedlemmer drev bl.a. handel, sagbruk, skipsrederi m.m. Flere av disse var også religiøse og ivrige medlemmer av brødremenigheten ("herrnhuterne") innenfor statskirken. Det er idag et høyt antall etterkommere gjennom kvinneledd fra Wesseltoft-slekten og de har bl.a. slektsnavnene Aall, Anker, Arnesen, Berggrav, Borchsenius, Cappelen, Heftye, Herlofson, Krefting, Lund, Løvenskiold, Møller, Norby, Skråmestø, Smitt-Amundsen.

13633	Wikipedia: Elias Figenschou, eller Elias Figenschoug, også skrevet Elias Hansen Figenschou, Figenschau og Fiigenschow, (født 1599, død 1660) var en av Nordens fremste barokkmalere på 1600-tallet. Elias Figenschou ble født omkring 1599, angivelig på et gods i Bayern, i den lille byen Hindelang. Byen beskrives som porten til Italia. Der drev familien Figenschou et stutteri som var kjent over hele Europa. Godset ble forøvrig solgt i 1600 til den mektige familien Fugger. Verdt å nevne er også at verdens første bok om hesteavl ble skrevet på godset i Bayern. Faren til Elias het Hans Fügenschuh. Navnet Fügenschuh skal visstnok bety «skoen som ikke trykker» på oldtysk. Sko var et statussymbol. Hans var en anerkjent salmaker og viden kjent. På den tiden kunne man sammenligne en salmaker av hans kaliber med dagens bilfabrikanter. Figenschou produserte ypperste kvalitet, noe som førte til at de ble adlet i Østerrike. Hans takket ja til en invitasjon fra kong Christian 4. av Danmark og flyttet til København. Elias utdannet seg i Nederland og kom til Bergen der han virket. Han malte også Norges første kjente landskapsmaleri, det er av Halsnøy kloster og henger på veggen i Skoklosters slott utenfor Stockholm. Elias giftet seg med datteren til fogden i Salten, hun het Anna Christensdatter Bloch. Faren het Christen Jensøn Bloch og moren var Birgitte Andersdatter Benkestok. Elias døde relativt tidlig, og Anne giftet seg med fogden i Troms. Barna ble med nordover og ga mange etterkommere. Kunstneren Ernst Lockertsen (1931-2003) fra Karlsøy i Troms var en direkte etterkommer av Elias Figenschou. ------------------------------ Har malt altertavlen i Voss kirke (Vangskyrkja) i 1642, og i Vestnes kirke rundt 1640.

13635	Wikipedia: Torger Dahl Tokle (født 3. juli 1919 i Trondheim ??, død 3. mars 1945 i Italia) var en norsk-amerikansk skihopper fra Løkken Verk. Han hadde en kort men svært suksessrik karriere som skihopper i USA, og ble blant annet USA-mester i 1941 og satte nordamerikansk lengderekord flere ganger. Torger Tokle var eldre bror av Arthur «Art» Tokle, som hoppet i VM og OL for USA. Torger Tokle emigrerte til USA i 1939, og mindre enn et døgn etter at han kom til landet, deltok han i sitt første hopprenn på amerikansk jord, i Bear Mountain, New York. Han overbeviste stort, og i løpet av sitt første år i USA vant han 15 av 16 renn han deltok i (inkludert debutrennet) og satte 9 bakkerekorder. Blant høydepunktene den første sesongen var konkurransen mot VM- og OL-medaljøren Reidar Andersen i Eastern Championship. Torger Tokle og Reidar Andersen delte seieren i mesterskapet. Vinteren 1940 vant han de aller fleste rennene han var med i, men ble slått av blant andre topphopperen Alf Engen i USA-mesterskapet. Året etter satte Torger Tokle nordamerikansk rekord på 273 fot (83,2 meter), før han tok revansj på Engen og ble USA-mester, og samtidig forbedret den nordamerikanske rekorden til 288 fot (87,8 meter). Tokle fortsatte å hoppe godt i 1942-sesongen, og forbedret blant annet sin nordamerikanske rekord til 289 fot (88,1 meter). Torger Tokle vervet seg til den amerikanske hæren i oktober 1942, og ble plassert i skitroppen til 10th Mountain Division, 86th Mountain Regiment. Under invasjonen av Italia ble han truffet og døde 3. mars 1945. Norway Ski Club i New York, der Tokle var medlem, satte etter hans død opp en pris til minne om ham. Torger Tokle Award blir utdelt av USAs ski- og snøbrettforbund til USA-mesteren i stor bakke. Torger Tokle ble tatt opp i US Ski Hall of Fame i 1959. Torger Tokles minnerenn ble arrangert i Bjørnlibakken på Løkken i 1946, og i 1999 og 2000 i Kløvsteinbakken. Et minnerenn i langrenn ble arrangert ved St. Cloud, Minnesota på 1970- og 80-tallet. ------------------------------ Findagrave: Ski Jumper. Sergeant in 10th Mountain Division, 86th Regiment, Company A. He arrived in the United States in 1939, and the very next day beat the field at the Bear Mountain ski jump. Life magazine said, in February 24, 1941, "Best ski jumper in the U. S. is a 22-year-old Norwegian carpenter named Torger Tokle. In the two years he has been in this country Tokle has won 23 out of 26 meets, now holds the American record of 273 ft." His record eventually grew to winning 42 of 48 meets, and breaking his own distance record several times. In October 1942 he joined the U.S. Army and was placed in the 10th Mountain Division. After training in Camp Hale, his division was shipped to Italy, where they pushed back the Germans in the Northern Apennines. He was killed in action near Iola, Italy, during the campaign to reach Castel d'Aiano. -------------------------------	Tokle, Torger Dahl (I165425)

13637	Wilhelm Frimann Koren Christie (født 7. desember 1778 i Kristiansund, død 10. oktober 1849 i Bergen) var en norsk jurist og politiker som var et medlem av Riksforsamlingen på Eidsvoll og siden medlem av Stortinget. Ti år gammel ble han sendt til Bergen for å gå på Latinskolen, og 16 år gammel ble han student i København, der han fem år senere tok latinskjuridisk embetseksamen (cand.jur.) i 1799. Han var sekretær i det danske kanselli 1801-08, og vendte tilbake til Bergen 30 år gammel i 1809, som sorenskriver i Nordhordland. Han møtte som første representant fra Bergen, «Bergen byes deputerede», til Riksforsamlingen på Eidsvoll 17. mai, 1814. Han var formann i komiteen under forhandlingene med Sverige, og har fått hovedæren for bevaringen av Norges selvstendighet i unionen. Han hørte til selvstendighetspartiet. Christie tilhørte «Quodlibet», en krets av ledende menn med politiske og litterære interesser. I mars 1814 holdt disse flere debattmøter over selvstendighetsspørsmålet og planene om en norsk grunnlov. Christie deltok ivrig og gjorde seg, som Peter Motzfeldt, til talsmann for en konstitusjonell styring etter amerikansk, engelsk og fransk mønster. Han møtte på Stortinget for Bergen i 1815-16 og 1818, størsteparten av tiden som stortingspresident, der han bidro til å innføre en stabil konstitusjonell praksis. I 1815 ble han utnevnt til stiftamtmann i Bergen, men søkte permisjon i 1823 og deretter avskjed i 1825 pga. sykdom. Fra 1828 til sin død var han tollinspektør i Bergen. Han var også medlem av Bergen bystyre fra 1837 til 1841, og deltok i opprettelsen av Bergen Sparebank, der han var styreformann i flere år. Han har fått æren som en av Bergen Museums grunnleggere, etablert i 1825. Han var formann for museet i alle år frem til sin død. Foran museets hovedbygning står det en stor statue av ham og skuer nedover gaten som bærer hans navn. Denne statuen, kalt Christiestøtten, ble avduket 17. mai 1868, og var den første portrettstatue som ble oppført i Norge. (Wikipedia)	Christie, Wilhelm Friman Koren (I94228)

13647	With sadness, the family of the late Agnes Hansen, announce her passing at the Norquay Health Centre on November 24, 2023, at the age of 94 years. Agnes was born February 21, 1929, on the Johnson homestead to Lars and Laura (Fischer) Johnson. She was one of nine children including Oriole, Gilbert, Helen, Olive, Lars, Albert, Orville, and Norman. Her only surviving sibling is Gilbert who resides in Winnipeg and will be celebrating his 99th birthday at the end of the year. Agnes said many times that she just had to live longer than Gilbert, but at 94 years and 9 months she left her earthly home. Growing up, Agnes attended and excelled at Swan School. She helped out on the family farm, which had an impressive herd of Holsteins, of which 14 of them were milked morning and night. She had fond memories of her and her mom singing hymns at the top of their lungs while milking, and there was always a line of cats waiting to have milk squirted into their eager mouths. On rainy days, the two of them could be found in the attic going through old letters written to Laura by her dad, Fredrick Fischer. Being that Laura was a midwife and helped prepare bodies for funerals, the girls were often left to prepare the meals, feed the chickens, and of course milk those cows. It seemed the brothers thought those chores were beneath them. Agnes met Walter Hansen shortly after his return from WW2 and in July 1947 the two were married. They were blessed with Laura, Wallace (passed away at 13 years old), Dale and Lars (passed away at 64 years old). The most retold stories from their childhood was when Laura at the age of 2, under the not so careful supervision of her father, fell through the hole in the hayloft into the manger of a very surprised cow, when Dale at the age of 4 was caught smoking and had to receive a serious talk on the swing set, when Wallace at the age of 9 brought home a shoebox filled with snakes that was later discovered in a closet, and when Lars at the age of 4 was chosen to be sent out in a winter storm to pick up milk from the store because he was smaller and closer to the ground. From the age of 5 years, Agnes started knitting and crocheting which always gave her extra spending money and a real source of pleasure. Even when she would go visiting, that bag of yarn and needles followed her. As kids, the table and sofa held all that yarn and her favorite question whenever we went some place was "could you pick me up some yarn?" Sometimes we would sneak into the city and never tell her, as looking for a certain brand was time-consuming. Each year she knitted slippers for the grade two classes in Norquay and Wetaskiwin, where her oldest granddaughter was teaching. When she went to the Norquay Lodge in 2019 she made even more slippers saying, "when I die I need to make sure those grade 2 kids have slippers!" She left behind 90 pairs to be handed out. Agnes was always described as a hard-working person when growing up, which was valued as an important character trait to have. So, it only seems fitting to mention her jobs: clerk at the Norquay Drug Store, janitor at the Norquay School and Credit Union, presser at Saskatoon Dry Cleaners, maintenance & cook for the Department of Natural Resources. She also owned and operated several small businesses including the Dari Dip and A&L Catering. When Walter died in 1970, she purchased the Dari Dip and shared numerous fond memories with the many people who supported her. One day an adult came for his usual cone and remarked that it tasted funny. Her quick reply was, "did you brush your teeth today?" Another time a teacher asked her to put more ice cream in the cone, her reply, "I don't tell you how to teach, so don't tell me how to make an ice cream cone." She was a proud grandmother to Lorin, Laurie, Chrystal, Lyle, Lars, and Gordon, great grandmother to Christopher, Mark, Leif, Lauren, Reagan, and Kenna, and great great grandmother to Ezra and Chloe providing endless love and support to all! This took the form of delivering delicious cakes to school shaped likes bunnies or elves (without the fancy cake pans they have now), buying sporting goods or the "newest" fashions, buying numerous tickets for all the different fundraisers (she once bought 12 magazine subscriptions), providing money for gas, groceries, and rent during university and all of the other important milestones and events in their lives. If ever there was a need, they simply had to call Grandma. Most importantly, she kept track of everyone, calling frequently, listening attentively, sharing funny stories from her past and being an important part of all of their lives! Grandma was the "glue" that kept the family together! Agnes will be dearly missed, however, her love of family, her amazing sense of humor, her cooking tips, her love of cards, the songs we shared, and her stories will live on in those of us whose lives she has forever touched.

W. malte figurbilder og portretter, interiører, blomsterbilder og oppstillinger og norske landskap fra Øst- og Sørlandet, særlig fra Telemark. Dessuten laget hun en rekke by- og folkelivsskildringer fra opphold i Frankrike, Danmark og Spania. Hele hennes produksjon var sterkt bundet til det naturalistiske formspråk. De tidlige bildene var preget av en noe mørk, men sikker fargebehandling og en sirlig penselføring. Senere ble koloritten lysere, i enkelte bilder litt søtladen, og malemåten ble friere, med brede, spontane strøk i retning av en mer impresjonistisk naturoppfatning. W.s bilder viste størst innflytelse fra Søren Onsager, og i mindre grad impulser fra de franske lærere.

WILLARD EVAN HANSEN (1916 - 2015)
Obituary

Willard Evan Hansen, longtime Mount Vernon resident and educator, died March 18, 2015.

Willard was born July 15, 1916, in Ellensburg, Wash., the fourth of five children of Henry and Ella (Kaaro) Hansen, both of Norwegian descent.

The pioneering Hansen family operated a 225-acre farm northwest of Ellensburg on the Yakima River. The children worked on the farm but also attended a two-room country school, walking five miles each day round-trip. The family lost the farm during the Great Depression in 1930, then moved nearby where they leased 100 acres to grow potatoes, eventually regaining financial independence.

Willard graduated from Ellensburg High School in 1934, then completed college at Washington State University where he earned a teaching certificate in 1939. He began his teaching career at Redmond High School, where he taught for three years. While there he met Helen Pope, whose parents owned Redmond Hardware. Willard and Helen were married on July 7, 1942. They made their home in Mount Vernon, where Willard taught high school farm shop and agriculture classes. Sons Evan and Roger were born in 1944 and 1947, respectively.

In 1946, Willard and Helen bought the Skagit Grain and Seed Company, which they operated until 1965. That fall, the state agricultural education office asked Willard to teach a new college-level farm management class, which he continued to do at Skagit Valley Community College for many years. Willard also led tours to several farming regions; this evolved into sightseeing tours to California, Hawaii, New England and Europe (especially Norway). Willard retired from teaching in 1979 but continued leading tours until age 88.

Helen passed away in 1983. Willard then married Clara Elde. In 2003 Willard and Clara moved to Mountain Glen Retirement Center. Clara died in 2013. Willard continued to live at Mountain Glen until his death.

Willard was a longtime volunteer in Kiwanis, well known for preparing delicious barbequed salmon at countless Kiwanis fundraisers. He remained active into his 90s in Kiwanis, with the Gideons and at Bethany Covenant Church, where he served in various capacities including Sunday School superintendent. He was a member of Bethany Covenant for 73 years. A born-and-bred Norwegian, Willard was known for telling "Sven and Ole" jokes. He loved to entertain his grandchildren with these and other jokes, usually eliciting a few groans. He had a gift for growing flowers and was admired for his beautiful beds and hanging baskets.

He was preceded in death by two brothers, Ernest and George Hansen, and sisters Elsie Schilling and Marjorie Swett.

Willard is survived by sons Evan (Linda) of Sun Lakes, AZ and Roger (Diane) Hansen of Henderson, NV; grandchildren Dionne (Chris) Dalhamer, Shawn Hansen, Kerry (Joshua) Meskin, Tyler (Denise) Hansen; six great-grandchildren (Stephanie, Alexandra, and Ashley Dalhamer; Zoe and Michael Meskin; Kiana Hansen); step-children Bob (Bonnie), Randy (Becky), and Susan Elde; and numerous beloved nieces and nephews.

A celebration of Willard's life is planned for Wednesday, April 1, 2:00 pm at Bethany Covenant Church, 1318 So. 18th St., Mount Vernon, WA 98274.

The family is deeply grateful to the staff at Mountain Glen Retirement Center, volunteers from Hospice of the NorthWest, and the caring staff and members of Bethany Covenant Church.

In lieu of flowers, the family suggests donations to Bethany Covenant Church Memorial Fund, the Gideons, or a charity of your choice .

Walter Frederick «Fritz» Mondale (født 5. januar, 1928) en norskættet amerikansk politiker og medlem av Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party. Han har utdannelse som jurist. Mondale var USAs 42. visepresident 19771981 under president Jimmy Carter. Han satt også to perioder som senator fra Minnesota, og var demokratenes kandidat til presidentvalget i 1984 mot president Ronald Reagan. Mondale utpekte Geraldine A. Ferraro som første kvinnelige visepresidentkandidat. Reagan ble gjenvalgt i et valgskred hvor Mondale bare vant sin hjemstad Minnesota og District of Columbia.[1]
Bill Clinton utnevnte Mondale til ambassadør til Japan.[1]
I 2002 gjorde Walter Mondale et kort comeback i politikken. Senator Paul Wellstone fra Minnesota døde i en flyulykke elleve dager før valget der han selv stilte til gjenvalg. Demokratene trengte en kandidat som var så kjent at han hadde mulighet til å vinne selv om det var så kort tid til valget. Walter Mondale stilte opp, etter oppfordring fra Wellstones familie. Han tapte valget med to prosentpoeng mot republikaneren Norm Coleman. [1]
Familienavnet Mondale kommer av Mundal ved Fjærland i Sogndal kommune. Da han var visepresident besøkte Mondale Norge samt bygda hvor slekten kommer fra, iført lusekofte.[2]
Mondale ble i 1995 tildelt storkors av Den Kongelige Norske Fortjenstorden. I 2008 ble han utnevnt til norsk honorær generalkonsul i Minneapolis,[3] en post han hadde til januar 2010.

Wayne N. Nelson

August 7, 1937 ~ January 17, 2024

Wayne Nelson, 86, of Oslo, MN., died in his home, surrounded by family, after a valiant journey with cancer, on Wednesday, January 17, 2024.

Wayne Noble Nelson, was born on August 7, 1937, in Warren, MN., the son of Noble and Irene (Bergman) Nelson. He was raised on the family farm along Highway 1, in Oslo, which his family homesteaded in 1888. Wayne continued this legacy on the land, working on it as a boy, before completing high school at the Northwest School of Agriculture, in Crookston, MN. Upon graduating in 1955, Wayne enlisted in the U.S. Army, and was stationed in Washington, D.C., as a member of the Honor Guard. He assisted with funerals, transported generals, and flanked President Eisenhower in the course of his duties. Wayne turned down re-elistment and the chance to become a sentry at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, preferring to come home to farm the land that he loved.

On June 25, 1965, Wayne married Judith Bredeson, a home economics teacher at Oslo High School, and the couple moved onto the family farm. Wayne and Judy raised three children and celebrated 56 years of marriage. Wayne's greatest concerns in life were his wife, family and farm. He loved to work, both hard and diligently. He was involved in every planting and harvest, missing only one year of driving tractor in 2023. For leisure, Wayne spent time with his wife, whether at the lake (with the grandkids, too) or at home. Mowing, driving his beloved convertible or checking on fields and sugar beet piles, were his favorite pastimes. He also enjoyed chatting over coffee at the cafe, and shaking dice for the bill. He and Judy were longtime members of Zion Lutheran Church, in Oslo, and he was also a member of the Oslo Lions, the Oslo American Legion, and was a board member of both Valley State Bank and the Oslo Farmer's Union (Cenex).

Wayne is survived by his children: Mark (Stacy) Nelson, Kara (Tim) Pitchford, and Paula (Craig) Nelson; grandchildren: Jacob (Katie) Pitchford, Erik (fiancée, Kayla) Pitchford, Anna Pitchford, Dane Nelson, Kjersten Nelson, Ally Nelson, and Kate Nelson; sisters: Sandy Roiger, and Ilene (Carl) Sherlock; many nieces and nephews; and farming buddy, Trent Stengl.

In addition to his wife, Judy, who died on November 3, 2021, Wayne was preceded in death by his parents; and sister, Kathy Lunski.

The family would like to thank the Altru Cancer Center's exceptional Staff, especially Dr. Dentchev and Ericka, for their attentive kindness to Wayne these last years.

FUNERAL SERVICE: Monday, January 29, 2024, at 11:00 AM, in Zion Lutheran Church, of Oslo, MN.

We are saddened to share that Jon Ingdal passed away peacefully on July 19th surrounded by his family. After a 16 month illness we are deeply grateful he suffers no more. He is survived by his beloved wife of 52 years, Ingrid, son Glen (Carrie), daughter Irene (Chris), brother Lars (Inger) as well as many nieces, nephews, cousins, extended family and his wife's relatives in Norway. A proud Bestefar to Emily (d.2016), Jake, Benjamin, Lily, Gabriel and Pearl.

Born to Ragna Kvernmo Ingdal (d.1996) and Gabriel Ingdal (d.1983) in Ingdalen, Sor-Trondelag, Norway, he was raised on the farm along with his older brother, Lars, and younger brother, Erling (d.2013). It was here he learned his work ethic as well as developed a love for the outdoors; hiking, skiing, hunting and fishing. He studied at Skjetlein School of Agriculture for 2 years and served in the Norwegian Air Force at Vaernes, Trondheim.

In search of adventure and fortune, he immigrated to Canada in 1958, with a basic grasp of English and $100 from his father in his wallet. He found work on Vancouver Island as a logger and a labourer and it was there he began his 4 year heavy duty mechanic apprenticeship through MacMillan Bloedel. After 5 years in Port Hardy, it was time to try his luck in the big city, Vancouver. He worked at Mack Trucks on Granville Island until his retina detached, and after spending the summer in the hospital, reattachment was unsuccessful leaving him blind in one eye. Unfazed, he quickly got back into the workforce at Isuzu Diesel of BC before taking a job as a marine mechanic at Austin Marine in Vancouver's Coal Harbour where he worked for 6 years. From 1973, until his retirement in 1999, he worked for Finning Tractor in their marine and generator divisions. The job included travel to the northern reaches of Canada, including the Beaufort Sea, NWT and the Yukon. He worked long hours on these trips but came back with a lasting appreciation for indigenous peoples artwork and culture.

Always by his side was his wife, Ingrid. He met this lovely Norwegian in Vancouver in 1965 through mutual friends and on August 17th, 1968, they were married in Norway in Ingdalen Chapel. The newlyweds returned to Canada and a short time later welcomed their son, Glen, in 1969 and daughter, Irene, in 1970. They lived in a modest apartment before buying Ingrid's uncle's house on Ferndale St. In 1974 they left the city and made the move to the suburbs of Coquitlam. It was there they enjoyed the next 48 years, raising their kids, gardening, cooking, entertaining, and traveling. Motorhome trips to Yellowstone and Minot, ND, the 24 hour ferry up to Prince Rupert with Glen's family, driving to Seattle to see Irene's family and many Las Vegas trips are only a few of the highlights. Although he emigrated from Norway, he was proud of his heritage and scrimped and saved in order to take his family back to Norway for many vacations that were filled with priceless memories. Welcoming hosts, the door to their home was always open to visitors for dinners, coffee, club meetings or a place to lay your head. If you had traveled far, you were assured a sightseeing trip around Vancouver, Victoria or the Caribou.

When the kids were young, Jon and Ingrid were active members of Tronderlaget Nidar and loved to attend dances and show off their dancing skills. Later, they became involved in Norwegian House Society and Jon was a regular volunteer with the 'Tuesday Gang' at the Scandinavian Centre. Manual labour, cooking up potato balls or waffles, he did it all with a smile. He loved to meet, talk and joke with people and will be remembered as a generous life-long friend to many.

Through the years, Jon found joy in many interests and hobbies including bridge club, golfing with his buddies as a member of Fort Langley Golf Club, coin-collecting, fishing at Loon Lake, taking his family for a 'Sunday drive', visiting with Finning retirees during their weekly coffee meetings and harness racing at Fraser Downs; but no greater joy than when he could spend time with his grandkids. He loved to visit with them, watching their sporting events and performances, going for walks, teaching them how to fix things, hearing about what they were up to and laughing at their antics. They will miss their Bestefar.

A celebration of Jon's life will be held at the Scandinavian Community Centre (6540 Thomas St. Burnaby, BC V5B 4P9) on September 24th, 1-4pm. In lieu of flowers, donations to the Norwegian House Society ? the Scandinavian Centre would be appreciated.

Wedel Jarlsberg

Norsk adelsslekt av tysk opprinnelse.Slekten kom til Norge med feltmarskalk Gustav Wilhelm Wedel (1641 - 1717), som trådte i dansk tjeneste 1678, og ble utnevnt til kommanderende general i Norge 1681. 1683 kjøpte han JARLSBERG grevskap av Ulrik Fredrik Gyldenløve, og fikk 1684 tittelen lensgreve Wedel af Jarlsberg. Hans sønn, visestattholder i Oldenburg, greve Georg Ernst Wedel Jarlsberg (1666 - 1717), døde før faren, så grevskapet gikk til sønnesønnen, lensgreve Frederik Anton Wedel Jarlsberg (1694 - 1738). Han var far til general, lensgreve Frederik Christian Otto Wedel Jarlsberg (1718 - 76), hvis sønn, diplomaten lensgreve Frederik Anton Wedel Jarlsberg (1748 - 1811), var far til stattholder, lensgreve Johan Caspar Herman Wedel Jarlsberg (1779 - 1840), kommanderende general, hoffsjef, baron Ferdinand Carl Maria Wedel Jarlsberg (1781 - 1857), baron Wilhelm Frederik Wedel Jarlsberg (1786 -1855) til Elingård og baron Christian Frederik Wedel Jarlsberg (1788 - 1854) til Fornebo. Sistnevntes datter Adelaide (1821 - 77) var mor til Fridtjof Nansen.

Stattholder, lensgreve J. C. Herman Wedel Jarlsberg var gift med Peder Ankers datter Karen (17891849), og kom dermed i besittelse av svigerfarens godser med Bogstad, Vækerø, Bærums og Hakadals verk, Nordmarka m.m. Deres eldste sønn, lensgreve Peder Anker (Per) Wedel Jarlsberg (180993), arvet grevskapet. Etter adelsloven av 1821 var han Norges siste greve. Ved hans død ble grevskapet omgjort til et stamhus, som ble overtatt av hans eldste sønn, øverste kammerjunker, stamhusbesitter Johan Caspar Herman Wedel Jarlsberg (1841 - 1922). Han var far til legasjonsråd, stamhusbesitter Karl Peder Boguslav Herman Wedel Jarlsberg (1870 - 1946) og hoffsjef Peder Anker Wedel Jarlsberg (1875 - 1954). Sistnevntes sønn Johan Caspar Herman Wedel Jarlsberg (1902 - 70) tiltrådte stamhuset ved onkelens død. Nåværende stamhusbesitter er hans sønnesønn Carl Nicolaus Wedel Jarlsberg (f. 1973).

Stattholder Herman Wedel Jarlsberg var også far til baron Harald Wedel Jarlsberg (1811 - 97), den siste mann bosatt i Norge som hadde rett til å bære en norsk adelstittel. Han overtok morfaren Peder Ankers eiendommer, med unntak av Bogstad. Hans datter, overhoffmesterinne Elise Wedel Jarlsberg (1844 - 1923), var gift med statsminister Carl Otto Løvenskiold (1839 - 1916) til Vækerø, som overtok svigerfarens eiendommer; se LØVENSKIOLD, norsk-dansk slekt.

Stattholderens yngste sønn var baron Herman Wedel Jarlsberg (181888), som arvet Bogstad. Han var far til godseier Johan Caspar Herman Nicolaus Wedel Jarlsberg (1851 - 1914) til Bogstad og Fjugstad, gift med Thorvald Meyers datter Mathilde. Bogstads siste private eiere var deres datter Nini Wedel Jarlsberg (1880 - 1948) og hennes mann, godseier Westye Parr Egeberg (1877 - 1955). Baron Herman Wedel Jarlsberg var også far til pavelig geheimekammerherre Wilhelm Christian Wedel Jarlsberg (1852 - 1909) og godseier Carl Gustav Wedel Jarlsberg (18541924) til Atlungstad.

Lensgreve Frederik Anton Wedel Jarlsberg (1694 - 1738) var også far til baron Frederik Wilhelm Wedel Jarlsberg (1724 - 90) til Ravnstrup, som igjen var far til skuespillforfatteren og teatersjef i København, baron Frederik (Fritz) Christian Wedel Jarlsberg (1757 - 1831). Hans sønn var amtmann, baron Frederik (Fritz) Wilhelm Wedel Jarlsberg (1787 - 1863) til Brunla, som var far til øverste kammerjunker, baron Frederik Joachim (Fritz) Wedel Jarlsberg (1819 - 80) til Brunla. Han var far til diplomaten, baron Frederik Hartvig Herman (Fritz) Wedel Jarlsberg (1855 - 1942), som var siste mann av denne linje.

Han var far til general, lensgreve Frederik Christian Otto Wedel Jarlsberg (1718 - 76), hvis sønn, diplomaten lensgreve Frederik Anton Wedel Jarlsberg (1748 - 1811), var far til stattholder, lensgreve Johan Caspar Herman Wedel Jarlsberg (1779 - 1840), kommanderende general, hoffsjef, baron Ferdinand Carl Maria Wedel Jarlsberg (1781 - 1857), baron Wilhelm Frederik Wedel Jarlsberg (1786 - 1855) til Elingård og baron Christian Frederik Wedel Jarlsberg (1788 - 1854) til Fornebo. Sistnevntes datter Adelaide (1821 - 77) var mor til Fridtjof Nansen.

Stattholder, lensgreve J. C. Herman Wedel Jarlsberg var gift med Peder Ankers datter Karen (17891849), og kom dermed i besittelse av svigerfarens godser med Bogstad, Vækerø, Bærums og Hakadals verk, Nordmarka m.m. Deres eldste sønn, lensgreve Peder Anker (Per) Wedel Jarlsberg (1809 - 93), arvet grevskapet. Etter adelsloven av 1821 var han Norges siste greve. Ved hans død ble grevskapet omgjort til et stamhus, som ble overtatt av hans eldste sønn, øverste kammerjunker, stamhusbesitter Johan Caspar Herman Wedel Jarlsberg (1841 - 1922). Han var far til legasjonsråd, stamhusbesitter Karl Peder Boguslav Herman Wedel Jarlsberg (1870 - 1946) og hoffsjef Peder Anker Wedel Jarlsberg (1875 - 1954). Sistnevntes sønn Johan Caspar Herman Wedel Jarlsberg (1902 - 70) tiltrådte stamhuset ved onkelens død. Nåværende stamhusbesitter er hans sønnesønn Carl Nicolaus Wedel Jarlsberg (f. 1973).

Stattholder Herman Wedel Jarlsberg var også far til baron Harald Wedel Jarlsberg (1811 - 97), den siste mann bosatt i Norge som hadde rett til å bære en norsk adelstittel. Han overtok morfaren Peder Ankers eiendommer, med unntak av Bogstad. Hans datter, overhoffmesterinne Elise Wedel Jarlsberg (1844 - 1923), var gift med statsminister Carl Otto Løvenskiold (1839 - 1916) til Vækerø, som overtok svigerfarens eiendommer; se Løvenskiold, norsk-dansk slekt.

Stattholderens yngste sønn var baron Herman Wedel Jarlsberg (1818 - 88), som arvet Bogstad. Han var far til godseier Johan Caspar Herman Nicolaus Wedel Jarlsberg (1851 - 1914) til Bogstad og Fjugstad, gift med Thorvald Meyers datter Mathilde. Bogstads siste private eiere var deres datter Nini Wedel Jarlsberg (1880 - 1948) og hennes mann, godseier Westye Parr Egeberg (1877 - 1955). Baron Herman Wedel Jarlsberg var også far til pavelig geheimekammerherre Wilhelm Christian Wedel Jarlsberg (1852 - 1909) og godseier Carl Gustav Wedel Jarlsberg (1854 - 1924) til Atlungstad.

Lensgreve Frederik Anton Wedel Jarlsberg (1694 - 1738) var også far til baron Frederik Wilhelm Wedel Jarlsberg (1724 - 90) til Ravnstrup, som igjen var far til skuespillforfatteren og teatersjef i København, baron Frederik (Fritz) Christian Wedel Jarlsberg (1757 - 1831). Hans sønn var amtmann, baron Frederik (Fritz) Wilhelm Wedel Jarlsberg (1787 - 1863) til Brunla, som var far til øverste kammerjunker, baron Frederik Joachim (Fritz) Wedel Jarlsberg (1819 - 80) til Brunla. Han var far til diplomaten, baron Frederik Hartvig Herman (Fritz) Wedel Jarlsberg (1855 - 1942), som var siste mann av denne linje.

Wesseltoft er en norsk slekt som har navnet fra stedet Vitseltofta i Skåne, Sverige, der en stamfar Jørgen Simonsen (1612-92) var prest.

Jørgen Simonsen var sønn til borger i Stavanger, Simon Jacobsen, og ektefellen Johanne Pedersdatter som i 1622 ble brent som heks i Stavanger. Jørgen Simonsen var gift med Anna Pedersdatter Bøgh (død 1703) og både hennes far og farfar hadde vært prest i Vitseltofta.

Jørgen og Anna hadde flere barn og datteren Maren Jørgensdatter med ektefelle Samuel Brodersonius var morforeldre til Carl von Linné. Det var Jørgen og Annas sønn Simon Jørgensen Wesseltoft (død 1739 i Skien) som ble stamfar for slekten Wesseltoft i Norge. På 1700- og 1800-tallene bodde slektsmedlemmene særlig i Skien og Grenlandsområdet. En del av Simon Jørgensen Wesseltofts etterkommere brukte etternavnene Simonsen, Jørgensen/Jørgensdatter og Zachariassen.

Gjennom generasjoner var det flere av slekten som var svært velstående forretningsfolk i Skien. Seierstad i «Skiens historie» (side 434), skriver at Simon Jørgensens sønner Jørgen og Zacharias Simonsen i 1740-årene i Skien "inntok .. en lederstilling blant byens borgerskap". Familiemedlemmer drev bl.a. handel, sagbruk, skipsrederi m.m. Flere av disse var også religiøse og ivrige medlemmer av brødremenigheten ("herrnhuterne") innenfor statskirken.

Det er idag et høyt antall etterkommere gjennom kvinneledd fra Wesseltoft-slekten og de har bl.a. slektsnavnene Aall, Anker, Arnesen, Berggrav, Borchsenius, Cappelen, Heftye, Herlofson, Krefting, Lund, Løvenskiold, Møller, Norby, Skråmestø, Smitt-Amundsen.

Elias Figenschou, eller Elias Figenschoug, også skrevet Elias Hansen Figenschou, Figenschau og Fiigenschow, (født 1599, død 1660) var en av Nordens fremste barokkmalere på 1600-tallet.

Elias Figenschou ble født omkring 1599, angivelig på et gods i Bayern, i den lille byen Hindelang. Byen beskrives som porten til Italia. Der drev familien Figenschou et stutteri som var kjent over hele Europa. Godset ble forøvrig solgt i 1600 til den mektige familien Fugger. Verdt å nevne er også at verdens første bok om hesteavl ble skrevet på godset i Bayern. Faren til Elias het Hans Fügenschuh. Navnet Fügenschuh skal visstnok bety «skoen som ikke trykker» på oldtysk. Sko var et statussymbol. Hans var en anerkjent salmaker og viden kjent. På den tiden kunne man sammenligne en salmaker av hans kaliber med dagens bilfabrikanter. Figenschou produserte ypperste kvalitet, noe som førte til at de ble adlet i Østerrike. Hans takket ja til en invitasjon fra kong Christian 4. av Danmark og flyttet til København.

Elias utdannet seg i Nederland og kom til Bergen der han virket. Han malte også Norges første kjente landskapsmaleri, det er av Halsnøy kloster og henger på veggen i Skoklosters slott utenfor Stockholm. Elias giftet seg med datteren til fogden i Salten, hun het Anna Christensdatter Bloch. Faren het Christen Jensøn Bloch og moren var Birgitte Andersdatter Benkestok. Elias døde relativt tidlig, og Anne giftet seg med fogden i Troms. Barna ble med nordover og ga mange etterkommere.

Kunstneren Ernst Lockertsen (1931-2003) fra Karlsøy i Troms var en direkte etterkommer av Elias Figenschou.

Har malt altertavlen i Voss kirke (Vangskyrkja) i 1642, og i Vestnes kirke rundt 1640.

Torger Dahl Tokle (født 3. juli 1919 i Trondheim ??, død 3. mars 1945 i Italia) var en norsk-amerikansk skihopper fra Løkken Verk. Han hadde en kort men svært suksessrik karriere som skihopper i USA, og ble blant annet USA-mester i 1941 og satte nordamerikansk lengderekord flere ganger. Torger Tokle var eldre bror av Arthur «Art» Tokle, som hoppet i VM og OL for USA.
Torger Tokle emigrerte til USA i 1939, og mindre enn et døgn etter at han kom til landet, deltok han i sitt første hopprenn på amerikansk jord, i Bear Mountain, New York. Han overbeviste stort, og i løpet av sitt første år i USA vant han 15 av 16 renn han deltok i (inkludert debutrennet) og satte 9 bakkerekorder. Blant høydepunktene den første sesongen var konkurransen mot VM- og OL-medaljøren Reidar Andersen i Eastern Championship. Torger Tokle og Reidar Andersen delte seieren i mesterskapet.

Vinteren 1940 vant han de aller fleste rennene han var med i, men ble slått av blant andre topphopperen Alf Engen i USA-mesterskapet. Året etter satte Torger Tokle nordamerikansk rekord på 273 fot (83,2 meter), før han tok revansj på Engen og ble USA-mester, og samtidig forbedret den nordamerikanske rekorden til 288 fot (87,8 meter). Tokle fortsatte å hoppe godt i 1942-sesongen, og forbedret blant annet sin nordamerikanske rekord til 289 fot (88,1 meter).

Torger Tokle vervet seg til den amerikanske hæren i oktober 1942, og ble plassert i skitroppen til 10th Mountain Division, 86th Mountain Regiment. Under invasjonen av Italia ble han truffet og døde 3. mars 1945.

Norway Ski Club i New York, der Tokle var medlem, satte etter hans død opp en pris til minne om ham. Torger Tokle Award blir utdelt av USAs ski- og snøbrettforbund til USA-mesteren i stor bakke.

Torger Tokle ble tatt opp i US Ski Hall of Fame i 1959.

Torger Tokles minnerenn ble arrangert i Bjørnlibakken på Løkken i 1946, og i 1999 og 2000 i Kløvsteinbakken. Et minnerenn i langrenn ble arrangert ved St. Cloud, Minnesota på 1970- og 80-tallet.

Ski Jumper. Sergeant in 10th Mountain Division, 86th Regiment, Company A. He arrived in the United States in 1939, and the very next day beat the field at the Bear Mountain ski jump. Life magazine said, in February 24, 1941, "Best ski jumper in the U. S. is a 22-year-old Norwegian carpenter named Torger Tokle. In the two years he has been in this country Tokle has won 23 out of 26 meets, now holds the American record of 273 ft." His record eventually grew to winning 42 of 48 meets, and breaking his own distance record several times. In October 1942 he joined the U.S. Army and was placed in the 10th Mountain Division. After training in Camp Hale, his division was shipped to Italy, where they pushed back the Germans in the Northern Apennines. He was killed in action near Iola, Italy, during the campaign to reach Castel d'Aiano.

Wilhelm Frimann Koren Christie (født 7. desember 1778 i Kristiansund, død 10. oktober 1849 i Bergen) var en norsk jurist og politiker som var et medlem av Riksforsamlingen på Eidsvoll og siden medlem av Stortinget.
Ti år gammel ble han sendt til Bergen for å gå på Latinskolen, og 16 år gammel ble han student i København, der han fem år senere tok latinskjuridisk embetseksamen (cand.jur.) i 1799. Han var sekretær i det danske kanselli 1801-08, og vendte tilbake til Bergen 30 år gammel i 1809, som sorenskriver i Nordhordland.
Han møtte som første representant fra Bergen, «Bergen byes deputerede», til Riksforsamlingen på Eidsvoll 17. mai, 1814. Han var formann i komiteen under forhandlingene med Sverige, og har fått hovedæren for bevaringen av Norges selvstendighet i unionen. Han hørte til selvstendighetspartiet.
Christie tilhørte «Quodlibet», en krets av ledende menn med politiske og litterære interesser. I mars 1814 holdt disse flere debattmøter over selvstendighetsspørsmålet og planene om en norsk grunnlov. Christie deltok ivrig og gjorde seg, som Peter Motzfeldt, til talsmann for en konstitusjonell styring etter amerikansk, engelsk og fransk mønster.
Han møtte på Stortinget for Bergen i 1815-16 og 1818, størsteparten av tiden som stortingspresident, der han bidro til å innføre en stabil konstitusjonell praksis. I 1815 ble han utnevnt til stiftamtmann i Bergen, men søkte permisjon i 1823 og deretter avskjed i 1825 pga. sykdom. Fra 1828 til sin død var han tollinspektør i Bergen. Han var også medlem av Bergen bystyre fra 1837 til 1841, og deltok i opprettelsen av Bergen Sparebank, der han var styreformann i flere år.
Han har fått æren som en av Bergen Museums grunnleggere, etablert i 1825. Han var formann for museet i alle år frem til sin død. Foran museets hovedbygning står det en stor statue av ham og skuer nedover gaten som bærer hans navn. Denne statuen, kalt Christiestøtten, ble avduket 17. mai 1868, og var den første portrettstatue som ble oppført i Norge.

With sadness, the family of the late Agnes Hansen, announce her passing at the Norquay Health Centre on November 24, 2023, at the age of 94 years.
Agnes was born February 21, 1929, on the Johnson homestead to Lars and Laura (Fischer) Johnson. She was one of nine children including Oriole, Gilbert, Helen, Olive, Lars, Albert, Orville, and Norman. Her only surviving sibling is Gilbert who resides in Winnipeg and will be celebrating his 99th birthday at the end of the year. Agnes said many times that she just had to live longer than Gilbert, but at 94 years and 9 months she left her earthly home.
Growing up, Agnes attended and excelled at Swan School. She helped out on the family farm, which had an impressive herd of Holsteins, of which 14 of them were milked morning and night. She had fond memories of her and her mom singing hymns at the top of their lungs while milking, and there was always a line of cats waiting to have milk squirted into their eager mouths.
On rainy days, the two of them could be found in the attic going through old letters written to Laura by her dad, Fredrick Fischer. Being that Laura was a midwife and helped prepare bodies for funerals, the girls were often left to prepare the meals, feed the chickens, and of course milk those cows. It seemed the brothers thought those chores were beneath them.
Agnes met Walter Hansen shortly after his return from WW2 and in July 1947 the two were married. They were blessed with Laura, Wallace (passed away at 13 years old), Dale and Lars (passed away at 64 years old). The most retold stories from their childhood was when Laura at the age of 2, under the not so careful supervision of her father, fell through the hole in the hayloft into the manger of a very surprised cow, when Dale at the age of 4 was caught smoking and had to receive a serious talk on the swing set, when Wallace at the age of 9 brought home a shoebox filled with snakes that was later discovered in a closet, and when Lars at the age of 4 was chosen to be sent out in a winter storm to pick up milk from the store because he was smaller and closer to the ground.
From the age of 5 years, Agnes started knitting and crocheting which always gave her extra spending money and a real source of pleasure. Even when she would go visiting, that bag of yarn and needles followed her. As kids, the table and sofa held all that yarn and her favorite question whenever we went some place was "could you pick me up some yarn?" Sometimes we would sneak into the city and never tell her, as looking for a certain brand was time-consuming.
Each year she knitted slippers for the grade two classes in Norquay and Wetaskiwin, where her oldest granddaughter was teaching. When she went to the Norquay Lodge in 2019 she made even more slippers saying, "when I die I need to make sure those grade 2 kids have slippers!" She left behind 90 pairs to be handed out.
Agnes was always described as a hard-working person when growing up, which was valued as an important character trait to have. So, it only seems fitting to mention her jobs: clerk at the Norquay Drug Store, janitor at the Norquay School and Credit Union, presser at Saskatoon Dry Cleaners, maintenance & cook for the Department of Natural Resources. She also owned and operated several small businesses including the Dari Dip and A&L Catering.
When Walter died in 1970, she purchased the Dari Dip and shared numerous fond memories with the many people who supported her. One day an adult came for his usual cone and remarked that it tasted funny. Her quick reply was, "did you brush your teeth today?" Another time a teacher asked her to put more ice cream in the cone, her reply, "I don't tell you how to teach, so don't tell me how to make an ice cream cone."
She was a proud grandmother to Lorin, Laurie, Chrystal, Lyle, Lars, and Gordon, great grandmother to Christopher, Mark, Leif, Lauren, Reagan, and Kenna, and great great grandmother to Ezra and Chloe providing endless love and support to all! This took the form of delivering delicious cakes to school shaped likes bunnies or elves (without the fancy cake pans they have now), buying sporting goods or the "newest" fashions, buying numerous tickets for all the different fundraisers (she once bought 12 magazine subscriptions), providing money for gas, groceries, and rent during university and all of the other important milestones and events in their lives. If ever there was a need, they simply had to call Grandma. Most importantly, she kept track of everyone, calling frequently, listening attentively, sharing funny stories from her past and being an important part of all of their lives! Grandma was the "glue" that kept the family together!
Agnes will be dearly missed, however, her love of family, her amazing sense of humor, her cooking tips, her love of cards, the songs we shared, and her stories will live on in those of us whose lives she has forever touched.
