Note: Mildred's maiden name was Carlson, with an O. Her mom and sis are interred in Blair. Carlson is misspelled as Carlsen in reference to her surviving brother (Verner), but otherwise spelled correctly in the obit and I have changed it on her memorial --Sheila, who manages her FindaGrave memorial #112158357
