Frida Eide received word on Friday evening, May 11,2001, of the death of her and Gail Eide's sister-in-law, Bonnie Eide Tillson of Tulsa, Oklahoma.

Bonnie graduated from the Riceville High School in 1939. The Tillson family lived in LeRoy, Minn., where they operated a jewelry store before moving to Spirit Lake and later to Scottsdale, Ariz.

She is survived by three children, Susie Livingston, Spirit Lake, Iowa, Jared (Butch) Tillson of Tulsa, and Jane Starr; and one sister, Mildred Krueger of Albert Lea, Minn., and six grandchildren.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Bill Tillson, one sister, Lillian Bennett, and five brothers, Herbert, James, Kenneth, Gordon and Robert Eide.

A memorial service for her may be held in this area in the near future.
