A NATIVE OF BURNSIDE DIES
Miss Alma Kinne Succumbs in Atlantic After Operation Buried at Dayton
Miss Alma ~inne,
daughter of Henry Kinne, died last Saturday in the Atlantic hospital at
Atlantic following an operation for adhesions. Miss Kinne was employed in the Atlantic hospital
as laboratory technician and assistant superintendant.
Funeral services were held Tuesday afternoon from her home in Burnside and from the Trinity
Lutheran church near Dayton, with Rev. R. Krenke, of the Lutheran church and C. Swanson
officiating.
Miss Kinne was born Dec. 29, 1896 at Burnside. She attended the parochial school of Trinity
church until her confirmation Mar. 20, 1910. Following her confirmation she attended Fort
Dodge Business college, from which institution she graduated with the class of 1916. Some time
later she entered the Nurses Training school of the Lutheran hospital at Harnpton, and finished
training in 1921. For some years she successfully followed her chosen profession in various states,
cheering the patients and those with whom she worked by her comforting words, gracious smiles
and ready wit.
As it became evident that the profession of nursing was too heavy for her, she attended the
Northwest Institute of Technology at Minneapolis, Minn., and graduated in 1929, going from
there to Atlantic, where she died at the age of 32 years, 9 months, and 7 days.
Deceased leaves to mourn her departure her father, three brothers and three sisters, Alwin
and Johanna at home, Franz of Gowrie, Henry at home, and Mrs. Theodore Lind of Dayton,
besides a host of relatives and friends. Her mother preceded her in death 17 years ago.
