December 18, 1918 — September 27, 2012
Ollie S. Henning, 93, Moorhead, MN, passed away on Thursday, September 27, 2012, at Eventide Lutheran Home, Moorhead.
Ollie Sophie Rue was born December 18, 1918, in Moorhead. After graduating from Moorhead High School she worked at the soda fountain in the S. S. Kresge Department Store in Fargo, ND, where she met her love, Fred A. Henning. They were married October 16, 1941. Together they made their home and raised their family in Moorhead. Later they lived in Bemidji and Dilworth before moving into the Eventide Lutheran Home in south Moorhead.
Ollie enjoyed life, participating in many activities over the years such as synchronized swimming, ice skating with the FM Skating Club, Lincoln School Mothersingers, her Sewing Club, and quilting with her friends. She took great pride in her Scandinavian hardanger and her baking - especially the cinnamon rolls and Norwegian specialties.
Ollie and Fred lived a very rich life together, especially spending time with their families and dear friends - playing cards, hosting at their lake cottage, Bethesda Lutheran Church Fellowship Club, square and round dancing, delivering Meals on Wheels, and visiting shut-ins.
Ollie was preceded in death by her husband, Fred; siblings, Carola St. Clair, Omar Rue, Sylvia Dible, and Verna LaVelle. She will be deeply missed and remembered by her children, Jeanne Stever of Minneapolis, MN, Larry Henning of St. Louis, MO, and Terry (Mary) Henning of Burke, VA; nine treasured grandchildren, eight great-grandchildren, and many special friends and relatives.
Ollie's funeral will be Wednesday, October 3, 2012, at 2 PM, in Bottolfson Chapel, Eventide Lutheran Home, Moorhead.
Visitation will be one hour before the service.
Burial will follow in Evergreen Cemetery, Moorhead.
Memorials may be given to Alzheimer's Association, Hospice of the Red River Valley, Evergreen Cemetery or the organization of your choice, in Ollie's memory.
