JUNE 5 – Laurine Rene Nelson passed away at the age of 87 on Sunday, May 27, 2012. She was born in Cosmos, MN and after several moves she settled in Farmville in 1985.

She worked at Stackpole while living at Calloway's Trailer Park. She has lived with her daughter KK at the JunkYard for the last 12 years.

Ms. Nelson kept her passion for poker; it was “ON” when Ralph Mahan would walk up the hill to play.

She is survived by two daughters, Pamela Treumer and Karen Mahan; a brother, Bill Reinke; eight grandchildren including Gabe Layne of Farmville and 13 great-grandchildren. She was preceded in death by her husband, Vincent Nelson, son, Gary Treumer, two sisters, Esther Benson and Doris Reinke, brother, Ray Reinke and two sons-in-law, Bradley Layne and Pug Mahan.

A memorial service will be held in Hallock MN at a later date.
