  • Notes 
    • Susan Shaw, age 59, of Ulen, MN, died Monday, January 05, 2015, at her home under the care of Hospice of the Red River Valley.

      Susan Ida Ingebretsen was born July 31, 1955, the daughter of Earl and Gladys (Chelin) Ingebretsen in Fargo, ND, and was raised in Morken Township, Clay County, MN. Susan was baptized, attended Sunday School, and was confirmed in the Christian faith at North Buffalo Lutheran Church, rural Moorhead. Susan graduated from Glyndon-Felton High School with the class of 1973 and furthered her education at MN State University at Moorhead. She worked in the accounting field; first for Deyle and Kelly in Fargo, then for George Kelly & Company and later for Fiebiger, Swanson, West & Company. Susan revered her employers, co-workers and clients.

      On December 2, 1978, Susan was united in marriage to Carl Shaw at North Buffalo Lutheran Church. To this union, six children were born: Darren, Sarah, Brian, Barry, Nathan and Allen. For most of their years together, they made their home near Ulen.

      Susan had been a member of Bethlehem Lutheran in Ulen where she served as a Sunday School Superintendent, a WELCA member and a member of the Board of Christian Education. Susan's favorite pastimes included crocheting and tending her beautiful flower beds as well as her vegetable gardens which she took great pride in the canning of the produce. In the summer, she would occasionally be found helping out on their farm raking hay driving an Allis Chalmers D-19 tractor that Grandpa Clifford called "Susie's Tractor", even though the rest of the farm was all International Harvester tractors. Susan delighted in spending time with her family and she especially loved the blessing of being a grandmother. If Susan's character of being devoted to God, family and friends was imitated by everyone, this world would be a far better place.

      Susan is survived by her husband of 36 years, Carl of Ulen; sons: Darren Shaw of Minneapolis., MN, Brian (Katie) Shaw of Red Lake Falls, MN, Barry (Tammy) Shaw of Hawley, MN, Nathan (Erin) Shaw of Hawley, MN, and Allen (Stephanie) Shaw of Ulen; a daughter, Sarah (Jonathan) Kauffman of Bar Nunn, WY; seven grandchildren; her mother, Gladys Ingebretsen of Moorhead, MN; brothers, Burl (Lou) Ingebretsen of Sabin, MN and Loren (Londa) Ingebretsen of Felton, MN; a sister, Betty (Steven) Coleman of Edina, MN; a sister-in-law, Betty Shaw (Paul Banttari) of Fargo, ND and several nieces, nephews and cousins.

      She is preceded in death by her father, Earl Ingebretsen and grandson, Matthew Shaw.

      Funeral Services will be held on Thursday, January 8, 2015 at 11:00 a.m. at the North Buffalo Lutheran Church, rural Moorhead, MN. Visitation will be Wednesday, January 7, 2015 from 5 to 7p.m. with a Prayer Service at 6:30 p.m. at North Buffalo Lutheran Church. Visitation will also be one hour prior to the service at the church on Thursday. Interment will be in the North Bethlehem Lutheran Cemetery, Ulen.
