Clarice Adeline Zine, 87, died Feb. 3, 2017.

She was born on a farm Jan. 20, 1930 in Parshall, North Dakota to
Knute and Synneva Haakenson. She attended grade school in Page, N.D.

Clarice and her family moved to Fargo, N.D. She graduated from Fargo
Central High School in 1948.

Clarice met her husband, Ed, in Fargo. They married 17 years later
on May 30, 1970 in Omaha, Nebraska. The couple relocated to
California.

She was employed by Northwestern Bell Telephone Company in Fargo and
Omaha. After 29 years with Bell, she retired in 1987. Clarice was
very proud of her time with the company.

Ed and Clarice moved to Lake Havasu City in 1988 from Yorba Linda,
California. She was a member of Mt. Olive Lutheran Church and the
London Bridge Golf Club. Her family said Clarice could always hit
the ball right down the middle.

Ed died in 2007. Clarice remained in Havasu, enjoying her friends
and activities. But she didn’t enjoy being responsible for the “man
jobs” around the house.

She moved to Richland, Washington in 2012, closer to niece Karen
Filipy and family. She quickly became involved with their friends
and activities and joined Richland Lutheran Church. She loved their
grandchildren as her own, calling the young ones “her babies.”

Clarice was preceded in death by husband Ed, her parents, brothers
Herman, Selmer Marvin and Vernon, sisters Ceilia Jacobson, Iona Hull
and Dorothy Linn and niece Cindy Califano.

A memorial service is set for 11 a.m., Thursday, Feb. 9, at Mt.
Olive Lutheran Church, 2170 Havasupai Blvd.

Memorials may be given to Mt. Olive Lutheran Church or Hospice of
Havasu.
