MOUNT HOREB - Evelyne Irene Midthun passed away on Friday, Jan. 21, 2022. She was born on the family farm in Almena, Wis., to George and Eva Kunkel. She graduated from Cumberland High School and Rice Lake Teachers College. She married Tenney Midthun on the same family farm. Together, they lived in southern Wisconsin throughout their lifetimes.

Evelyne ran the family business until the day she died. She was also a longtime Sunday School teacher at Springdale Lutheran Church and a member of the VFW Ladies Auxiliary for many years.

She is survived by two sons, Tom (Kitty) and Bruce (Renee); a daughter, Kay; four granddaughters, Lori Midthun (Stuart Mitchell), Amy Midthun, Ileah (Joe) Henchel and Marina Midthun; five great-grandchildren; and one sister, Joyce (Gary) Smith. She was preceded in death by her husband, Tenney; her parents; and three sisters.
