Harriet Rosella Hanson was born on May 27, 1922 at the Hendricks Hospital to Hans and Ina (Reppe) Hanson. She was baptized and confirmed at Singsaas Lutheran Church.
After graduating from Hendricks High School, she was united in marriage to Isaac Sandro on June 20, 1942. To this union, two daughters were born. Together they farmed until retirement in 1984 when they moved to Hendricks. In addition to farming, Harriet also worked at the Hendricks Hospital for several years.
Harriet's lifelong commitment to the church included many years as director of the Singsaas Junior Choir and as a Sunday School teacher of the youth. She held various offices in the ladies aid and the congregation, and was currently serving as the church's financial secretary. It was her original idea for the Singsaas Fall Bazaar, which has been an on-going success for the past 27 years. She was also instrumental in the planning of the program for the 130th anniversary of Singsaas Church held in August of 2004.
Along with her sisters, Annice and Bernice, she was proud of the reputation earned as a member of the renowned Hanson Trio. Besides singing, other interest included playing the piano, refinishing and upholstering furniture, hairpin lacing, working crossword puzzles, growing house plants, and raising and selling Christmas trees. She acquired good writing skills and received first place honors in a published essay contest.
Harriet was a dedicated wife, gracious mother, and kind-hearted grandmother and great-grandmother. She was actively involved in the lives and events of her daughters, grandchildren, and great grandsons. She is survived by her two daughters: Juanita (Jerry) Nolz of Clear Lake, SD, and Violet (Michael) Nelson of Hendricks; five grandchildren: chat (Julie) Nolz of Milbank, SD, T. Anya (Doyle) Brenner of Bloomington, MN, Jay Nelson and Shale Nelson of Atlanta, GA, and Haley Nelson of Narita, Japan; three great-grandchildren: Caleb and Isaac Nolz, and Baby Girl Brenner; one sister, Annice Hagen of Hendricks; two brothers: Elvin and Harlen Hanson of Hendricks; and many nieces and nephews.
She was preceded in death by her husband, Isaac, in 2004; her parents; one brother; and one sister.
Blessed be her memory.
