Birth21 November 1936Isabel Elaine Buum was born on 21 November 1936.
She was the daughter of Gottlieb J. Buum and Myrtle Ronning.
Death15 September 2020Isabel Elaine Buum died on 15 September 2020 at Beresford, South Dakota, at age 83 Isabel Elaine Buum was born on November 21,1936 to parents Gottlieb and Myrtle (Ronning) Buum, at the rural Nora, SD home of her grandparents. She passed away on September 15, 2020 at Bethesda of Beresford after contracting Covid 19.

Isabel grew up on a farm near Nora. She attended elementary school at Nora country school and went on to high school in Alcester, SD, graduating in 1954. She was raised in the Lutheran church and was a devoted follower of the Christian faith all of her life. She was baptized and confirmed at Roseni Lutheran Church, and on June 9, 1956 she was also married there to Chalmer Onnen of Akron, IA. After the wedding she began her life as an Air Force wife in Kansas City MO. Over the next 25 years Isabel made a home for her family in Texas, Kansas, North Dakota, Iowa, Arizona and finally back to Alcester, South Dakota.

Isabel had a way of finding joy in life, and was passionate about many things. Her greatest love was her family and she was very generous in showing her love for each one of them. Her infectious personality gained her many friends during her life, and she was able to make every one of them feel special and loved. Isabel also had a passion for music, and she generously shared her musical talents. Her love of music came from her parents, and she and her sister Twila started singing together at a very early age. Her singing continued as a soloist, and as a member of many school, church and community choirs. She was very proud to be part of the local gospel quartet known as the The Good News Four which included her brother Owen & Adele Buum and Roger (Sparky) Anderson. She shared her love music with her siblings, passed it to her children and grandchildren, and delighted in singing and playing instruments with all of them. The Buum family rarely spent time together without singing, accompanied by our very own “family band”. A precious memory the whole family shares is our annual Christmas rendition of The 12 Days of Christmas, with Isabel singing joyfully her part of “5 gold rings”. During her childhood, she also learned to play the piano, the organ and the accordion and put those skills to good use. Isabel was a church organist for an impressive 60+ years, playing in every church she was a member of. She played organ and piano at countless weddings, funerals, community events, and was an accompanist for numerous vocal and instrumental groups as well as countless soloists. There were many piano duets and piano-organ duets played with her sister Carla, and she enjoyed making trips to Minnesota to listen to her brother Martin sing is his barber shop quartet.

She will be remembered for many of her other passions including her proud Norwegian heritage, and her talents of cooking and baking Norwegian food. She was known for her lefse and krumkake and most fondly for her bread, the requested Christmas gift of her grandchildren. She had several jobs throughout her life, but her most fulfilling were teacher’s aide, medical receptionist, and a short stint at the local news paper, the Alcester Union, where she also wrote a weekly news article, “Over the Coffee Cup” and where she was given her nickname “Scoop” by her good friend Ron. Isabel was a wonderful seamstress and it is not possible to know how many things she made for herself, her friends and her family. She also enjoyed crafting, with scrapbooking being one of her favorites. She used this talent, along with her amazing knowledge of family history and hundreds of photographs she collected, to make beautiful records of the family genealogy.

Isabel, and her wonderful laugh, will be missed by all who were lucky to know and love her. She leaves behind her daughter Wanda (Kurt) Keil, her son Matthew and her daughter-in-law Barbara Onnen (Jerome). Her sister Twila Herzog, her brother Martin (Karen) Buum, her sister Carla (Dave) Limoges and her sister-in-law Adele Buum. Her grandchildren Jesse (Lindsay) Taylor, Eric (Danielle) Taylor, Kiley (Dustin) Van Horn, Sami (Cory) Zelfel, Jacob (Callie) Keil, Joshua Onnen, Christopher (Jen) Onnen, Jamie Onnen, Kyle (Tiffany) Vanhove, Alec (Shelby) Vanhove, Cassie Onnen (fiancé Zachary Venenga), along with16 great-grandchildren, and many nieces, nephews, cousins, and very special friends Joanne Hatton, Becky Treiber and Sandra Inberg. She was preceded in death by her parents, her sons Duane and Jerome, her brother Owen Buum, her nephew Paul Buum and her daughter-in-law Sandra Onnen (Matthew).

Birth31 July 1924Betty Buum was born on 31 July 1924 at Iowa.
She was the daughter of Joseph L. Buum and Bertha Stene.
Marriage30 September 1946Betty Buum married Victor Thompson on 30 September 1946.
Death24 July 2006Betty Buum died on 24 July 2006 at age 81 A pillar of the farm community and matriarch of Thompson Farms, Betty Jean Thompson, 81, died Monday, July 24, in her simple ranch home surrounded by her family and fields of dahlias and zinnias blooming outside her windows.

Her son and business partner, Larry Thompson, said after a two-year battle with lung cancer, her peaceful death was an answer to prayer.

“She just quit breathing,” he said. “There was no pain, no strain. She was lucid the whole time. Ten minutes before she died, she asked Norm (her son-in-law) to sing the song he learned for her funeral. He played it on the guitar and five minutes later she looked around, told us she loved us, and then she died.”

Thompson Farms, including its three stands and u-pick locations, will close Thursday for her funeral so its farm workers, who gave Betty presents every Mother’s Day, can attend.

Betty was born in Hawarden, Iowa, on July 31, 1924, to Joseph and Bertha Buum. As a girl, she moved to South Dakota and graduated from Beresford High School in 1942. During World War II, she was a cryptographic clerk for the Army Signal Core in Washington, D.C.

On Sept. 30, 1946, she married Victor Thompson in Beresford. The following year, drought prompted the couple to head for the Willamette Valley’s lush farmland. In Gresham, the newlyweds raised berries, vegetables and four children.

Under Victor and Betty’s stewardship, Thompson Farms grew from 3 acres to more than 100, producing a wide variety of diversified crops, including berries, pumpkins, gourds, dahlias, broccoli, squash, peppers, tomatoes and several kinds of lettuce.

Betty loved the ever-changing view from her windows – rows of lettuce replaced by fields of gladiolas and dahlias. Each season and weather change brought a new crop along with it.

Strawberries were her favorite, and her first bowl of perfectly ripe strawberries and cream was an annual delight. She made a great strawberry pizza, topping a pie-crust-like dough with cream and sliced berries – a favorite among her nine grandchildren and two great-grandchildren.

Her adult children loved her strawberry daiquiri recipe, which she would mix in a 5-gallon jug and serve at the many family gatherings at her home or on family camping trips at Fort Stevens.

When Victor died suddenly of a blood clot in 1983, Betty and son Larry formed Thompson Farms and continued farming in the Boring and Damascus area.

Her family and friends kept Betty going after Victor died. She continued his legacy of holding her family close to her, gathering the children and grandchildren at her home on Southeast Bohna Park Road for birthdays, Christmas, the Fourth of July.

“Mom wanted to make sure when she left this earth, the family would continue on as a strong, close-knit family,” Larry said. “And we are going to do that. Mom never forgot a birthday, and especially in the last 10 years of her life, she was always telling us how much she loved us. That will go on.”

On the farm, “ever-ready Betty” managed fruit stands, hoed, did the banking, and satisfied her shopping urge by buying all the supplies. She never drove the tractor. To her, that was not something a lady did, Larry said.

In December 2000, Betty was named to the statewide Hall of Fame at the Oregon Farm Bureau meeting. The Thompsons were recognized as farm family of the year in 1991 by the Portland Chamber of Commerce.

Never idle, Betty didn’t have time for novels or television. She loved to dress up for formal dances and dinners at the Elks Club. She made her own clothes and would sew a new outfit, complete with matching hat and scarf, for every event and special occasion.

Betty’s big trip was to China when her oldest daughter was living there with her husband and children. Betty took along her other daughter and granddaughter, and the group was among the first American tourists allowed back into Tiananmen Square after the deadly 1989 student protests.

She visited her sisters in South Dakota, California and Arizona. But perhaps her favorite haunt was the Silver Legacy Casino in Reno, Nev.

In a battered manila folder, she documented 41 trips to the city, where she loved the nickel slots and liked them even better when they switched from one-armed handles to buttons.

The farm girl in her never let her go hog wild. She’d usually allow herself $160 to gamble with, and her goal was always to pay for her trip.

During one trip to Reno with her two sons, Larry said, they decided to split up and meet at the room at midnight. Larry and Bruce met, but Betty didn’t wander in until 2 a.m. She was back up at 4 a.m., asking her sons, “Wanna go gamble?”

Back home, she’d stash spare change and bills into old cans and Tupperware containers hidden around the house, with masking tape labels reading “Reno Money.”

A social butterfly, Betty had many different groups of friends – from Trinity Lutheran Church, the Elks, Gresham Senior Center, the Feisty Red Hatters, Zarephath Kitchen and the county farm bureau.

When she was diagnosed with terminal lung cancer in May 2004, doctors gave her six weeks to two years. She lived for two years and two months, dying just one week shy of her 82nd birthday.

Her family marvels at her positive attitude in her final years. In the last five months, her four children took shifts caring for her around the clock, along with hospice care.

“She was the most gracious person to care for,” said her daughter-in-law Kathy Thompson. “She never complained about anything, even when she was in severe pain, she was never grouchy.”

Betty is survived by daughters Barbra Aune and her husband, Norm, Vicki Eustice and her husband, Ed, sons, Bruce Thompson and Larry Thompson and his wife, Kathy; sisters, Joyce Campbell of Sioux Falls, S.D., and LaVan Erickson of Tucson, Ariz; brother, Bobbie Buum and his wife, Donna, of Freemont, Calif; nine grandchildren; and two great-granddaughters.

Larry said he will always remember his mother as a tough and tender woman.

“Mom had a unique ability to basically run a business, which takes a business mind and the ability to be an extremely hard worker,” he said. “But yet she was always a truly caring mom.”
