    • Alvina (Berg) Deeren, 93, of Galesville, WI died November 21, 2018 at Marinuka Manor. Alvina was born May 16,1925 to Alvin and Othilda (Erickson) Berg of Blair, WI.

      She was the oldest of seven children and worked very hard on her family’s farm, hitching up a team of work horses by the age of 5, using a step stool to reach the large horses. At age 16 Alvina became the second Egg Festival queen in Blair, WI. She graduated from the Blair High School. She married Gordon Deeren of Galesville on Nov 15,1946 at the First Lutheran church in Blair. The Deeren farm, just north of Galesville has been their home ever since.

      Alvina joined the Merry Homemakers in 1947 making many friends during those 71 years and has been the oldest member in her club for several years. She has also been a member of the Zion Lutheran church of Galesville since 1947. Alvina served on the FHA board, the county Homemakers committee, Galesville Lioness club, helped register voters during elections, and was a 4-H leader when her children were young.

      While raising their family, Alvina worked alongside Gordon in the fields, able to operate any of the machinery they needed to work the land and harvest their crop. Whether it was milking cows in the early years, raising thousands of turkeys, raising beef cattle, or watching the corn dryer all night long, she helped make the Deeren farm what it is today. After the field work was done, you could find Alvina cooking and baking bread at all hours of the night while the rest of the family was asleep.

      Alvina and Gordon enjoyed vacations away from farming by traveling to many places in the US during their 72 years of marriage. Starting in 1946 with a honeymoon trip to New York and Niagra Falls, in which they drove half way home without brakes. She knew then that there would never be a dull moment living with Gordon. In her younger years she played the trumpet, the guitar, and loved to sing and dance. She would call family and friends on their birthdays and sing Happy Birthday and she would yodel for the grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

      Alvina is survived by her husband, Gordon; children: Gary (Annette) Deeren, Daniel (Susan) Deeren, Rick Deeren, Pamela Remus; grandchildren: Tracy (Ben) Crenshaw, Brent (Mary) Deeren, Jody (Cody) Clemens, Brad (Jennifer) Deeren, Kevin (Julie) Deeren, Kurt Deeren, Kraig (Carolyn) Deeren, Joseph Remus, Michael Remus, Jerred Remus, Beth (Nathan) Rumppe,and Maria Deeren; 19 great-grandchildren; sisters: Elsie (Phillip) Hanevold, Jeanette Horvath, Olida Brown; brother, Otto (Charline) Berg; and many nieces, nephews, cousins, and wonderful friends and neighbors.

      Alvina was preceded in death by her parents; son, Curtis (who died at birth), sisters: Elaine Wegner and Janice Wandry; brothers-in-law: Richard Wegner, Charles Horvath, and Wayne Wandry; sister-in-law, Cleone (Dr. Robert) Henry; a niece and 2 nephews
