Minnie E. Anderson was born July 23, 1919, in Toledo, Iowa. She graduated from Toledo High School and went to work for the bank there until moving to a farm outside Belle Plaine. While in Belle Plaine, she worked for Citizen State Bank, and stayed there until she retired at age 66.
She had two daughters, Pam (Alex) Nenortas and Patricia (Dick Guglielmetti) Bordwell; was blessed with six grandchildren; 13 great-grandchildren; a great-great-grandchild; and a niece, Norma (Terry) Rieck. She married Pat Dreibelbis after the death of her first husband, and had an extended family of two daughters, Deanne (Ron) Mirr and Cindy (Tom) Scarlett; son, David (Patti) Dreibelbis; seven grandchildren; and two great-grandchildren. She greatly enjoyed the time she was able to spend with all of them.
Minnie will be greatly missed. There always was a cookie in the cookie jar and she was always up for a game of cards.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Milton and Bertha Anderson; her husbands, James Trimble and Pat Dreibelbis; sister, Viola Brandt; sister-in-law, Zelma Graff; granddaughter, Erica Moore; and nephews, Don and Bob Baker and Terry Rieck.
