Then in 1902 she returned to Neenah, Wis., for her marriage to Iver J. Boyum on October of that year. The same year Mr. and Mrs Boyum came to Fergus Falls to reside, and in 1904 they purchased the present family home on Lincoln Avenue west. Mrs. Boyum was a devoted wife and mother, and a devout Christian. She never wearied in helping others. As a faithful member of the First English Lutheran church she was active in the Ladies Aid throughout her long residence here, and was particularly interested in the Alaskan missionary work of the church. She was also an ardent Red Cross worker. Her memory will be cherished not only by the family circle, but by a host of friends. Surviving are her husband, 5 daughters and 2 sons.
