Marsha Larson Engelstad

The Lynchburg Alumni Association expresses our sincere condolences to the family.

I am so sorry for your loss of Marsha -- I work at the YMCA and I had to honor of spending lots of time with Marsha on many of the active-adult trips that she participated in -- you are so correct -- she definitely lived the motto - Carpe Diem!!!! I will miss her laughter and story telling! Prayers to the family.

Marsha was a cherished member of the Class of '59 and confirmed her faith at Our Savior's Lutheran Church here in Larimore with many of us. I believe I was visiting with Marsha in Larimore when Kendra decided to do karaoke. I can't remember the song, but I remember she sang very well. The class will be sending a donation to Marsha's favorite charity in her memory. Clarene Johnson Wasness

We had the pleasure of living next door to Marsha for more than ten years. She was a kind, gentle soul. I remember her gardening in her back yard, tending to her flowers and plants until dusk. She truly cared about her neighbors, and we feel honored to have been among them. Our thoughts go out to her two children and her grandchildren.

Mrs. Engelstad must have been an incredible woman!! Brian is one of the kindest people I know. We are saddened to hear of her passing. May memories of her bring joy to the loved ones in her life. Brian and Kendra, you will remain in our prayers. We love you.

To Kendra and Brian, We were saddened to hear about your mother. She was such a kind, sweet lady. Cherish the memories, as they last forever! Sending love and prayers! Tom and Sharon Patterson

We loved spending time with Marsha. She was kind, hospitable, and always ready with a story or memory to make us smile. Her gardens amazed and inspired me. She served as an example of a strong, independent woman. So grateful that we got to know Brian´s mom.

We were sorry to hear of your mother's passing. Our prayers and thoughts are with you and your family.

Kendra and Brian, I was so sorry to read about the loss of your mother. I didn´t know her, But, I know she had to be special to have two such nice children.
