Valdine C. Haugen

August 25, 1937 — December 9, 2018

Valdine Carol Haugen, 81, of Clitherall, died December 9, 2018, at Lake Region Healthcare, Fergus Falls.

She was born on August 25, 1937, in Fergus Falls, the daughter of Oscar and Clara (Milbeck) Anderson. She was baptized and confirmed at Tonseth Lutheran Church in rural Erhard. She went to Hunters School in Friberg Township through the eighth grade and then attended the Roosevelt Park Senior High School, Fergus Falls, graduating in 1955.

In her childhood, she belonged to the 4-H Club and owned her own horse at the age of thirteen. Upon graduation, she took training in airline communications at the Gayle Institute in Minneapolis, was an office typist for about a year and then went to beauty school.

On June 30, 1962, Valdine married Manley Haugen at Zion Lutheran Church in Fergus Falls. They were blessed with two children, Michelle and Tim. She stayed home to care for the children and help maintain the household.

Valdine was known for her homecooked meals and put on quite a spread during the holidays, with Christmas being her favorite time of the year. She enjoyed many family camping trips with Manley over the years and recently enjoyed spending time at the lake with her family.
