Obituary from unknown newspaper, 24 Jan 1934
Daniel Engstrom was born in Varmland, Sweden, Nov. 15, 1862 and came to this country when he was 14. He stayed in Stillwater for a time and finally made his home at Lakeland, Minn. While there he was united in marriage to Miss Anna Johnson, and to this union 2 children were born, a daughter, Pauline, and a son, Albin, both at home. In 1897 the Engstroms moved here and settled at Cedar Lake, where they have lived since, and where Daniel Engstrom passed away Jan. 18, at 71 years of age.
The decedent had not been in good health for many years. He experienced a great deal of trouble and anxiety because of various illnesses, and seeking aid from many doctors, he continued cheerfully to hope for complete recovery. His sudden death was caused by heart failure.
Funeral services were held Jan. 19 at the home at 1 p.m., Rev. Haaland preaching on I. thes. 5:9, 10. Rev. and Mrs. Haaland sang 2 duets, "Jesus Savior, Pilot Me," and "Abide With Me". Interment was at Huntington cemetery.
