County, a daughter of Seigel Calvin and
Hazel Dora (Davis) Daughenbaugh. She
died Friday (Dec. 3, 2004) at the Muse
Norris Hospice Inpatient Unit, Mason
City.
From an early age on, LaVonne was raised
by her grandparents, Calvin and Bertha

During her junior year in high school
she moved to live with her father at Elk
River, Minn. She graduated from Polaris

On April 10, 1949, she was united in
marriage to Merland Cletus Lines at the

and to this union five children were
born.
They farmed in rural Marble Rock.
Following Merland's death on Feb. 8,
2001, she continued to live on the farm
until her recent illness.
LaVonne was a devoted wife and mother,
tending to the needs of her husband and
children; she exemplified the true
meaning of love. She loved and cherished
her family and the special friends that
she came to know throughout her life's
travels. LaVonne enjoyed being a mother
and grandmother, more than anything
else. She loved children of all ages,
but was especially fond of babies. She
also enjoyed the cats at the farm.
Her interests included keeping up on
what was going on by reading newspapers,
and keeping in touch with family and
friends. LaVonne was a member of the
United Methodist Church and the United
Methodist Women. She was a charter
member of the Hi Neighbor Club and was
instrumental in naming the club.
LaVonne will be sadly missed by her
children, two daughters, Joyce (Rick)
Hana-Osterman of Lake Mills, and Debra
Lines of Leland, one son, Bruce Lines,
of Minneapolis; and two grandchildren,
Craig David Hanna and Kayla Marie Hanna.
She was preceded in death by two sons,

Iowa.
After graduation from
Fertile High School,
Jean pursued her
interest in aviation,
obtaining her commercial
pilot's license. She
continued training for a
period of time at the
Aviation Academy in
Kansas City, Mo., before
returning to Fertile.
Those living in North
Iowa in those days still
speak of the times Jean
was heard and seen
soaring above their
communities in her Piper
Cub.
She married Wayne
"Butch" VanDenBosch on
April 19, 1947, at the
Church of Christ in
Fertile, Iowa. To this
union four sons were
born. After many years,
the marriage ended in
divorce.
To further her education
in later years, Jean
completed requirements
for her associate's
degree in liberal arts.
She worked as the
bookkeeper for the
family-owned business of
Fertile Valley Hatchery
for more than 30 years,
as well as assisting in
the overseeing of the
general operation.
In more recent years,
she was the bookkeeper
for The Petal Shoppe in
Clear Lake, Iowa, until
her retirement in the
late '90s.
During Jean's declining
health in recent years,
she has enjoyed the
fellowship and
assistance of many of
the community members of
Fertile who have so
willingly helped meet
her needs. Of special
pleasure to her was the
morning coffee group at
the Downtown Cafe.
During more active
years, she enjoyed
gardening, music,
reading and cooking,
however, she will be
foremost remembered for
her devout Christian
faith.
She was a lifelong
member of the Church of
Christ in Fertile where
she served for many
years in various
capacities including
Sunday school teacher,
Superintendent of
Christian Education,
Christian Women's
organization, and choir
member.
She is survived by her
four sons, Bob (Toby) of
Mason City, Mike (Karen)
of Iowa City, Tom and
Scott (Kelly) both of
Strawberry, Ariz.; seven
granddaughters; two
grandsons; and one
brother, Bob (Betty) of
Fertile.
Family members in heaven
welcoming her home for
Christmas are her
parents and a grandson.
