Obituary for DeLaine (Olson) Mork
Age 90 of Brooklyn Center, passed away peacefully on 11/10/20.
She was born on the family farm near Kempton, ND, on 2/22/30. After graduating from Northwood High School and Mayville State Teachers College, she taught in a one-room schoolhouse in western ND and at elementary schools in Grand Forks, ND, and Anoka, MN.
She and Odean Mork were married at Northwood Evangelical Lutheran Church in North Dakota on 7/6/58 and raised four children. Children were at the center of her heart, whether it was teaching Sunday School at Lutheran Church of the Master or smothering her grandchildren with love and affection. She always had a smile for everyone and enough love to give wherever she thought it was needed.
DeLaine is survived by her beloved husband, Odean; children Cindy Traub, Collette Mork, Randy Mork, and Phil (Rachel) Mork; grandchildren Amy (Jake) Kershaw, Brandon, Arianna, and Sophia Mork, and Sara and Katie Traub.
She was preceded in death by parents Ingeborg and Gunder Olson and siblings Mervin (Esther) Olson, Adeline (Arnold) Larson, and Ione (John) Mark. She will be dearly missed.

I just can't say enough about the help we received in planning my husband's funeral at the Osseo Evans Nordby funeral home. It was a very difficult time and they were so caring, sensitive, helpful and very organized in making the funeral go smoothly. The funeral home in Osseo felt so welcoming and comfortable also. Tina was extremely helpful in guiding our family with planning the funeral and went out of her way in finding the right memorial folder for my husband. I would highly recommend them. Thank you all.
