Cumberland Advocate, Thursday, July 6, 1939
Section Ten News

Quite a shock to everyone was Mrs. Andrew Thompson's death Thursday morning at 10:15. Mrs. Thompson had been sick several weeks but no one thought death would come so soon. A fine type of Christian beloved by everyone has gone to rest. She leaves her husband, 10 children, 3 step children, several grandchildren and 2 brothers to mourn her passing. Our sympathy is extended to her bereaved family.

Tollef Thompson came from Springfield, S. Dak., Thursday, but unfortunately did not arrive before his mother's death.

MARTINE EMILIA THOMPSON
An illness of several months brought unexpectedly sudden death to Mrs. Andrew H. Thompson of near Cumberland last Thursday, July 29. She was 64 years old. Funeral services were held from the East Cumberland Lutheran Church on Saturday with Rev. E.F. Brandt the officiating pastor. Arrangements were under the direction of the Jacobson Funeral Home. Mrs. Thompson's six sons served as pallbearers. At the home the East Cumberland Lutheran quartette sang; at the church the choir provided special music. Mrs. Thompson was laid to rest in the East Cumberland Cemetery.

Martin Emelia Orgedahl was born to Simon and Massie Orgedahl at Rock Creek, Mithell Co., Iowa, on May 17, 1875. In April 1899 she became the wife of Andrew H. Thompson, who with six children and three step-children survive to mourn the passing of a beloved wife and mother.

The six sons are Ingvald of Superior, Otto of Cumberland, and Jens, Steven, Arnold, and Bernard, at home; the daughters, Nora, Mrs. Al Kindel, Superior, Thelma, Mrs. Art Sandve, Cumberland, and Milla and Helen, at home. The step-children to whom she was equally mother are Tollef, Springfield, S.Dak., Lydia, Mrs. Christ Mathison, Cumberland, and Amanda, Mrs. Milen Sletten, Superior. Two brothers Sorn and Albert Orgedahl of Cumberland, twenty-four grandchildren and one great-grandchild also survive.
