    Notes:

    Kenneth Leroy Mercer:

    I enjoy researching my family roots and finding out how I was influenced by my relatives. One of those I so respected and still do is my Great-Grandfather; Chris L Jensen, who came to America in the 1890's working his way over on a cattle ship from Denmark, signed the required paperwork disavowing his former Country and King while pledging allegiance to America (which he did willingly and with great excitement). He made his way with his brother to Nebraska and homesteaded just north of my hometown, Curtis. He never learned to drive, walking everywhere he went including to and from work (apporx. 8 miles each day) every work day. The attached photo is from one of his special days in this very special country. I never heard him say anything bad about America or any person for that matter ? he left a great example to follow!

    Notes:

    I have so many wonderful memories of celebrating our birthdays together! Notoriously Uncle Marion would send a new Kitten home with me against my dad Robert Leroy Nelsen's wishes!!! Also I think I was 4-5 years old we were all together and Aunt Wanda made homemade spaghetti & meatballs I had this heaping amount of spaghetti thinking I'm not going to be able to eat it all loved the two of them, lots!!

    Lori Laureen Tobiasson (nee Nelsen)on 11 May 2016

    As kids, when grandpa was in the hospital in Omaha, dad left us three boys with Marion and Wanda. I remember playing with trucks on the back porch area. At any rate, sometime during the evening, my brother Jeremy went missing. Wanda frantically searched for him but since he was just a baby he couldn't get far and Marion wasn't too worried. Jeremy had managed to crawl behind the couch and wedged in there. They eventually found him. I always looked up to Marion and still picture Wanda as a Barbra Stanwick type from Big Valley.

    Obituary for Robert R. Thomsen
    Robert R. Thomsen, 94
    Kearney resident, formerly of Gibbon

    Robert Thomsen, 94, of Kearney, formerly of Gibbon died Wednesday, May 8, 2019 at the Mitchell County Hospital in Beloit, KS. Memorial services will be held at a later date.

    Memorials are suggested to the Central Nebraska Veterans Memorial and Gibbon Public Schools. Condolences may be shared online at www.osrfh.com. Services are entrusted to O’Brien Straatmann Redinger Funeral and Cremation Services.

    Robert was born January 7, 1925 in Curtis, NE to Knud and Rena (Rossen) Thomsen. He grew up on a farm near Curtis and received his education from the Nebraska School of Agriculture. Immediately following his graduation, Robert was drafted into the U.S. Army. He went to basic training in Texas and was sent to Camp Crowder in Missouri before his deployment to the European Theater. Robert was in Marseille, France waiting to deploy to the South Pacific when the Japanese surrendered. He was honorably discharged from the U.S. Army in December of 1945.

    On November of 1943, Robert was united in marriage to Veda Amstuz in Oberlin, KS. The couple moved to Curtis, NE where he owned and operated the Palace Café. They moved to Gibbon where Robert worked for Consumers Public Power and later owned and operated Thomsen Fuels in Gibbon.

    Robert enjoyed piloting small airplanes as a young man with his brothers-in-law. He loved thoroughbred horseracing and owned several that competed at numerous racetracks. He enjoyed many camping trips with his family across the United States. After his retirement, he traveled with his wife, Veda to Denmark where he met his father’s family and visited family homesteads. His father emigrated from Denmark and since both parents spoke only Danish in the home, Robert’s first language was Danish, learning English when he went to school. He was very proud of his heritage and loved telling Danish names of his favorite foods.

    Notes:

    My mom Hilda Thomsen Edwards, Leachman was born in 1926. I asked her about Grandpa Rossen and she said when she was in HIgh School, she stayed with Grandpa Rossen in town because they lived in the country. She did this when she was a senior and she graduated in 1944. Mostly she remembers when Grandpa Rossen and his friends could not find enough people to play pinnochle, then they would have her play

    Notes:

    The earthly journey of Ione R. Jensen Lollar came to an unexpected end on April 1, 2019.
    Living with the lifelong motto of “Life’s a Journey,” what a journey she had! Ione was born in Curtis, Nebraska on June 15, 1936 to loving parents Clarence “Butch” and Ebba Jensen. At age three, the family moved to California, where Ione would live for the next 80 years.

    Ione attended Wasco schools and graduated from Wasco High in 1954. Her journey continued to UCLA and Children’s Hospital School of Physical Therapy. After graduating from PT school in 1959, she made the bold move to San Francisco, working not in physical therapy, but in the offices of Pan Am Airlines. In each part of the journey, she made life-long and cherished friendships.

    Ione married John “Jack” Lollar on April 22, 1961 in the Wasco Methodist Church, where they worshipped and were leaders for more than 50 years. By 1964, they had two children, Laura/ie and Richard, and lived in Wasco. They became very involved in the community and kids' activities. They were founding directors of the Wasco Rose Festival Art and great supporters of the arts and artists. Ione was also an artist, creating beautiful stained glass, weavings, and baskets. Her Chex mix and challah were sought after items at the Methodist Mini-Bazaar.

    Ione worked part-time, along-side Jack, at their physical therapy office in Shafter. She was always home when the kids got home from school. During these years, the family travelled internationally, visited family in Colorado, Nebraska, and New Mexico, and explored favorite places like San Francisco, Yosemite and Morro Bay/Los Osos. Her favorite journey was a trip to watch the Apollo Soyuz space launch at Cape Canaveral. The Once-a-Year Club, bridge group, and PEO provided many happy couple memories.

    They moved to Shafter in 1984. Both were devoted volunteer Green Hotel cooks and docents. Ione was also involved in grant writing and producing the newsletter for the Green Hotel. Ione served as President of PEO Chapter JT and celebrated 35 years as a member. She was co-coordinator of the Shafter-Wasco Satellite Branch of AAUW that later became the Brunch Bunch. These were all sources of more cherished friendships.

    Everything she did, she did with love and attention to detail. Her family was always her priority. As an only child, she was an amazing daughter. In her words, she was a PT and, “Also daughter, wife, mom, grandma, aunt, cousin, friend...each one fun!” She was the documentarian of all our lives. She was never without a camera in hand at the end of a visit to capture the moment. Many wonderful hours were spent around the Lollar dining room table enjoying meals she prepared.

    A highlight of Ione’s journey was being part of the team to establish the Wasco Union High School Auditorium on the National Register of Historic Places in 1997. She was passionate about world peace... embracing the motto of Another Mother for Peace: “War is not healthy for children and other living things.”
    After Jack’s death in 2012, Ione was blessed to be surrounded by family and close friends. She kept up her activities and added a Wendy’s Words Little Free Library to her front yard. The family continued the traditional Thanksgiving trip to San Francisco and her grandchildren were her pride and joy until the end.

    Ione was preceded in death by her parents Clarence and Ebba Jensen, and her husband of 51 years, John “Jack” Lollar. She is survived by daughter Laura Wolfe, her husband Bill, and sons Matthew and Daniel of Shafter; son Richard, his wife Christine (Harris), their children Katie, Gregory, Emily and Isabelle, and their five grandchildren, of Bakersfield.

    A memorial service to celebrate her life will be held Monday, April 8 at 11 a.m. at the Wasco First United Methodist Church, 1441 7th Street. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to reach Ione’s lifelong wish of purchasing a Giving Ark from Heifer International, https://fundraise.heifer.org/fundraiser/2005422 or to the Wasco Community Scholarship Association, PO Box 7, Wasco, CA 93280.

    Ione married John M Lollar on 22 Apr 1961 in Wasco Methodist Church, Kern County, California. John was born on 5 Aug 1933 in Las Vegas, New Mexico; died on 26 Nov 2012; was buried in Wasco Memorial Park, Wasco, Kern County, Californi. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
