Generations and reunions are for area residents who are gathering for a family or class

Celebrating 100 in person and spirit The Taylor Family On Jan. 5, 1914, Marie Irene Victoria was born to Jens and Paulina Larsen, near Redwood Falls, Minn., the youngest of nine children. Six months earlier on July 29, 1913, Ivan Leroy was born to Oliver and Irma Taylor in Amboy, one of seven children. Later, Ivan traveled to Minnesota to visit his older brother, Earl, who was now married to Christine, Marie’s sister. In 1936, the two were married in Iowa, where Marie was attending school and working. They settled in Sterling shortly after this. Their daughter, Jannet, was born in 1941. With Ivan in the Army, they lived in various states ending up in Fort Lewis, Wash., where, at the end of 1942, their son, Terry, was born. Ivan left from there to go overseas in mid-1943. He was killed in Luzon,
the Philippines, near the end of the war. Marie, with her two young children, returned to Sterling, when Ivan went overseas. Marie and her daughter still live in the home Ivan and Marie built. Terry and his wife, Sandra, live in Renton, Wash. Their children, Tom, and his wife, Lisa, with their two boys, Trevor and Jake, live in Seattle, and Kathleen and her husband, Bryce, live in Issaquah, Wash. Marie’s other grandchild, Erica, died in infancy. On Jan. 5, 2014, we are celebrating the 100th birthday of two very special people, one in person and the other in spirit. There will be an open house from 1 to 4 p.m. at St. John Lutheran Church in Sterling. Cards also may be sent to 610 W. Ninth St., Sterling, IL 61081.
