BERG, Maryls


Maryls Berg on June 5, 2003 went home to be with her Lord & Jesus. Born April 2, 1918, she & her brother Kent were born & raised in Fosston, Minn. She later moved to Minneapolis, Minn. & attended Fairview Hospital school of nursing where she graduated as an R.N. in 1942. While attending nursing school she met & then married Obed Berg, her loving husband & best friend of 62 years. They started a family soon after & have 2 sons, Bill & Gordon. Maryls lived a long & loving life & always with a sense of "very dry" humor. She will be greatly missed by all who knew her. She was a dedicated wife & mother & a tremendous grandmother ... Not to mention, a loyal "Cubs Fan." She leaves behind her beloved husband, Dr. Obed Berg, sons Bill Berg & wife Jean, Gordon Berg & wife Meta, 5 grandchildren Mari Berg, Nick Berg, Chris Berg, Courtney Berg, & Jackie Berg, her brother Kent & wife Alice, 3 step-grandchildren Katie Holtzclaw, Matthew Childress, Lisa Childress & her fiance, David Olguin, & 1 step-great-grandchild, Logan Childress. Maryls, you have left an everlasting print of love on our hearts, & for that we thank you.
