I am so saddened by Orvin’s passing. I wish the family all the best.
I think I am a lost relative of the Upsahls. My father’s name was Obe Upsahl who resided in Grand Forks where I grew up. He was married to Myrtle and died in 1973. I believe that Edward was my fathers brother. I’ve just lost track of everyone. My condolences at the loss of Orvin.
Julia we were very sorry to hear of your loss. Nothing that we say can ease your pain, but just know that our hearts and prayers are with you and your family.
If you need a friend at any time don’t hesitate to call.
Memorial will be sent to East Walle Lutheran Church, Thompson, North Dakota c/o Bernice Kjorvestad.
We are sorry for your loss, you are always in our prayers
