Lorne W. Nudell
Custer, SD
Lorne W. Nudell, 86, Custer, SD, died Friday, December 30, 2005 in the Custer Regional Hospital, Custer, SD.
Lorne Wilburn Nudell was born to the late Frank and Alma Nudell, near Buffalo, ND on March 6, 1919. he attended grade school in Buffalo and high school in Enderlin, ND. In 1939, he moved back to Buffalo where he met Helen Ann Yanish. Lorne and Helen were married September 9, 1941 in Moorhead, MN.
Lorne and Helen began farming at that time in the Buffalo area, eventually taking over the family farm and moving into Lynwood Cottage. Lorne and Helen celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary in 1991 in Buffalo. Lorne was a live-long member of the First Presbyterian Church of Buffalo. Lorne was also a member of the Historical Society of Buffalo, the Valley City Eagles, the Buffalo Senior Citizens and a local card club.
Lorne took great pride in farming and that he farmed the same land that his grandparents had homesteaded. Lorne retired from farming in 1979. In 1986, Lorne and Helen moved their house into Buffalo where they enjoyed being closer to their family and friends. In 1997, Lorne lost his best friend, Helen, and that, along with the onset of Alzheimer’s changed his life forever. Lorne continued to make the best of each day. He enjoyed his “town tractor”, the John Deere lawnmower. Lorne also enjoyed helping others, whether it was giving someone a ride or to help out with some work somewhere. Lorne was faced with many challenges and each one he accepted.
He would leave his much loved home for an apartment, which he enjoyed. Lorne also accepted a golf cart in place of his towncar. When it was time for Lorne to move from Buffalo, it was very hard, but he accepted that also, knowing that he probably would not be able to come back to visit the many people he knew.
Lorne made many “new” friends in Custer, SD, but he never forgot his family and friends in the Buffalo area and would often tell his “new” friends about Buffalo and the people he had to leave behind. Lorne resided at Custer Regional Long Term Care since November of 2002. Lorne attended church services in Custer almost every Sunday and enjoyed singing along with the hymns. Lorne talked of the past and many days he thought he was out farming or working on the farm equipment or milking cows. He always remembered that he was Lorne Nudell from Buffalo, ND and that he was a farmer.
Lorne is survived by two sons and one daughter; Keith (Barbara) Nudell, Laverne, ND, Kent Nudell, Corpus Christi, TX, Kimberly Ann (Alan) Webster, Custer, SD and six grandchildren; Bradley (Melissa) Nudell, Harwood, ND, Katie (Kelly) Tomlinson, PA, Eva Nudell, Jamestown, ND, Andy (Michelle) Nudell, Fargo, Seth Webster, Winner, SD, Jared (Sara ) Webster, Chadron, NE, and five great grandchildren; Jacob Nelson Nudell, Mason A. Smith, Helen A. Nudell, Alexander Tomlinson and Maggie Sease. Lorne is also survived by three sisters; LaVergne Lindemann, Phylis Nord, both Enderlin, ND and Charlotte (Al) Besa, Thousand Oaks, CA. Lorne was preceded in death by his wife, Helen Ann; parents, Frank and Alma Nudell; sister, Marjorie Lindemann and baby daughter, Linda Nudell.
