Evelyn Stach, 81, of rural Wolverton, died on Tuesday, Feb. 13, 2007, at her residence.

She was born Jan. 13, 1926, the daughter of Joseph and Selma (Langseth) Fobes in Moorhead. She grew up and attended school in Glyndon and Wolverton, graduating from Wolverton High School in 1943.

On Feb. 17, 1946, Evelyn was united in marriage to William "Bill" Stach in Glyndon. In their early married life they farmed near Henning and Breckenridge, later farming the family farm near Wolverton where they since resided.

Evelyn worked beside Bill on the family farm and kept a very large garden that Evelyn and Bill are so well known for. Evelyn worked at the Moorhead Library, helped with the 1990 census, was a bookkeeper for Turner's Sand and Gravel and also did some in-home care for two of her neighbors.

She was a member of St. Thomas Catholic Church in Kent and the VFW Auxiliary in Wahpeton. She enjoyed crocheting, making lap robes for VA patients, gardening, canning, genealogy, making loom rugs and spending time with her family and friends.

Evelyn is survived by her husband, William "Bill" Stach of rural Wolverton; her son; her daughters; eight grandchildren; 10 great-grandchildren; her brother; her sister; her sister-in-law; and many brothers and sisters-in-law.

She was preceded in death by her parents, Joseph and Selma Fobes; her brother, Maurie Fobes; her infant sister; her two additional mothers, Florence Peterson and Helen Langseth; and many brothers and sisters-in-law.
