From her husband's obit:
They were united in marriage by the Swedish Lutheran pastor, O.A. Staaf December 18, 1880.
His wife died September 27, 1923, and a son Ole, August 5, 1930. The children who mourn the loss of a good father are Goodwin, Great Falls, Montana; Nels, Dupuyer, Montana; Albert and Helmer at home. There are two grandchildren.
Mr. Berg was a member of long standing in the Zion Lutheran church, an earnest Christian who strove to walk meekly and uprightly before his God. He made diligent use of the mass of grace and his soul longed for the Homeland. He served the congregation many years as an usher. Last rites for Mr. Berg were held on Monday at the Gibson undertaking parlors and the Zion Lutheran church, Rev. T.E. Sweger officiating.
Interment was beside his wife in the Zion Lutheran cemetery." THE BLAIR PRESS - APRIL 15, 1937
