July 15, 1914 - June 18, 2014
Pastor Mark Taylor officiated at her service at Plentywood Lutheran Church; private interment of cremated remains preceded the memorial service.
Florence and her family were anticipating celebrating her 100th birthday that day, but she passed away to join her husband Olaf and much of her family on Wednesday, June 18, 2014.
She died at Sheridan Memorial Nursing Home in Plentywood, with her two sons at her bedside.
Florence, the daughter of Henry and Emma (Kohl) Bernau, was born July 15, 1914 in East Troy, Wisconsin, where she grew up and completed high school.
In 1933, she and her sister traveled with a cousin and his friend, Olaf Arneklev, to visit family in Iowa, South Dakota, and Montana.
Their trip lead to marriage on July 9, 1934. Florence and Ole established their home on the Arneklev homestead, one mile northeast of Antelope, Montana.
In 1939, they moved to their second home nine miles northeast of Antelope. Florence missed the wooded landscape of Wisconsin, so she helped plant and maintain an extensive shelter belt of trees surrounding their farmstead.
In 1947, they built a new, modern farm home and enjoyed the luxuries of plumbing and electricity for the first time! A child of the 1930's depression, Florence was always independent and extremely frugal. Although she was quiet and soft-spoken, she remained strong-willed.
She maintained a clear vision of right and wrong - and there was never any doubt about her choice!
A busy, devoted farm wife, Florence kept the farm crews fed with meals (often delivered to the fields) and helped with farming operations in any way she could: she saw her role as keeping her family and farm together and "going." She was very active in the Antelope Creek Lutheran Church (later Plentywood Lutheran), the Antelope Homemakers and was devoted to her friends, neighbors and community. With her impeccable penmanship, she served as secretary for many organizations, as well as the church and her circle. She loved harvest and often entered prize-winning jams and other canned goods at the fair.
The central part of Florence's busy life was maintaining close connections to both Ole's and her large family. A trip "home" to Wisconsin in July was the highlight of most years. In 1984, she and Ole enjoyed their 50th wedding anniversary celebration at the Plentywood Civic Center, which was attended by their children, grandchildren, living siblings, extended family and friends from the community. In 1981 they retired to a home in Plentywood. After Ole's death February 24, 1992, Florence maintained her home and independent lifestyle, keeping up with family, community and church events until her mid-nineties.
Florence is survived by two sons: Duane and his wife Nancy, of Billings; and Bruce and his wife Dixie, of Tacoma, Washington; by grandchildren Alyson (Daniel) Knightly, Eric (JinAe) Arneklev; Bruce J. (Tamara) Arneklev, Edward (Dorraine) Arneklev, David Arneklev, Eun Soon "Sue" (Elmer) Joe, and Yeonok (Dale) Morley. She is also survived by great-grandchildren Madeline and George Knightly, Samuel and Benjamin Arneklev, Max and Josie Arneklev, Sarah and Shawn Arneklev, and great-great-grandaughter, Sierra Arneklev. She is also survived by sisters Grace Healey, Beulah Leake, and brother Delbert Bernau, and was preceded in death by six brothers and sisters.
