Elphie Mae Larson, age 83 of Baldwin WI, died on Saturday, March 3, 2012 at United Hospital in Saint Paul, MN. Elphie was born August 8, 1929 in Hudson WI to parents Roy and Ellen (Rose) Clothier. Elphie was a graduate of Hudson High School. Elphie was blessed with four children from her first marriage to Edmond Michels, and gained another daughter when she was re-married in 1957 to Glen T. Larson.
Elphie enjoyed reading, growing and canning vegetables, knitting and crocheting popular items that she would sell at craft shows, and donating her share to a casino now and then. She liked the colors blue and green, and her favorite flowers were carnations. Elphie also loved listening to country and gospel music. Elphie always had a smile and a "hello" for those she encountered, and was an active member at Peace Lutheran Church, involved in the ladies circle, and the LOGOS program.
