LILLIAN SANDAU was born on the Fred Sandau homestead farm at New Leipzig, ND, two and one-half miles northwest of town on July 11, 1912 to Frederick and Juliana (Bierwagen) Sandau. Her given name was Lea. She grew up and lived all her life in Grant County. She attended New Leipzig schools and graduated in 1932. Lillian had artistic talents and was the school artist during her school years. She was requested to make posters for school plays. Lillian attended six months of Business College at Bismarck Capitol Commercial College.
She was confirmed in the New Leipzig Lutheran church by Rev. Fred Kordwick. One summer she worked for her Uncle Bill Bierwagen north of Elgin doing farm work.
Lillian met Alvin Bauer of Heil at a barn dance at the August Stelter farm about 1931. She went to church one Sunday evening with cousin Hulda (Bierwagen) Hetzler and after church Hulda suggested going to the dance. Lillian was afraid of what her parents would say, but Hulda said the parents were already asleep and wouldn't notice that she didn't come home right away. Alvin was at the dance with Linda Meidinger but had his eyes on Lillian and told her during the course of the evening that if he hadn't come with Linda, he would take her home! They were married July 9, 1933.
In the winter of their first year of marriage they stayed with her parents while Alvin worked in the Davenport coal mine. The next summer they moved to Carson Lake Bed region and farmed and raised cattle for two years. During this time Alvin also worked on W.P.A. Their first daughter, Diana, was born on July 28, 1934. Later they lived on the Strohmeier farm south of Elgin for six months. In July of 1936 they moved to the Sandau farm after her parents moved to Oregon. Another daughter, Doris, was born August 25, 1936. Alvin and Lillian farmed, raising grain and cattle. Lillian always had a large vegetable garden and many beloved flowers. On July 15, 1940 a son, David, was born. The family lived and worked on the Sandau homestead for ten years. In the winter of 1946, the family left for Oregon to work. They returned and purchased his parents homestead when August and Karolina (Guthmiller) Bauer retired and moved to Elgin. Alvin and Lillian farmed until 1957 when they held an auction and Alvin began working on construction in Fargo, ND. They returned to the farm each winter and lived there until 1983. They sold the farm at Heil to their son, David. They moved to New Leipzig where on March 3, 1984 Alvin passed away. Lillian continued to live in her home there until she moved to Dakota Hill Housing in 2009.
Lillian passed away at the St. Alexius Medical Center in Bismarck on September 20, 2013 at the age of 101 years, 2 months, 9 days.

On Thursday, April 16, 2009, Duane L. Johnson, an amazing husband, father, grandfather, and great-grandfather, passed away suddenly from a stroke.
He was born October 9, 1934 in Bellingham, WA. As one of two boys in the Johnson family, he learned the value of hard work and dedication to family and friends. At age eight he could be found: collecting bottles for money to help out his parents, taking on odd farming jobs and doing construction work for additional cash to donate to families and friends in his community who needed assistance. These strong work ethics and humanitarian values would stick with him for the rest of his life.
In 1953, he graduated from Bellingham High and was soon awe struck by a young lady, Meridian High's very own Carnival Queen, Katrina Lee Holt. They married August 3, 1956 and moved to Alger where they built a home and raised five children.
He is survived by his wife of 52 years, Katrina L. Johnson and their five children: Roderick Allen, Michael Lynn, Randal Scott, Angela Kay and Mark Andrew Johnson and their spouses; 15 grandchildren; and 7 great-grandchildren.
He was preceded in death by his parents, Odin R. and Otilla "Tillie" Johnson; and his brother, Alvin L. Johnson.
Baptized in 1951 as a Jehovah's Witness, he served as an Elder in the Burlington congregation. Whether caring for his family, serving his brothers and sisters in the congregation, engaging in the door to door ministry, or donating many hours constructing, remodeling, and inspecting Kingdom Halls in Western and Eastern Washington, his love and dedication for Jehovah God coupled with love for his spiritual and fleshly family is an outstanding example for all.
His talents with hammer and nail as learned from his father served him with the privilege of being part of many Kingdom Hall construction projects and also for establishing his own business of Duane Johnson & Sons Construction, Inc. He spent many years building and remodeling homes and businesses in Western Washington. The company continues as a family owned business, now operating for 31 years with son Randal S. Johnson as owner.
Retirement - if you could call it that - didn't slow him down, he found projects for all to do at home and at the Kingdom Hall. He never lacked for a list of things that just must be done or directions for how it should be done. With his finger waving and pointing he would say, "just listen to daddy." Well known and loved as an exceptional man, leader, story teller and friend. He will be missed by many.
A special thanks to the doctors, nurses and technicians at St. Joseph's Hospital of Bellingham, Washington for making his last moments with us, as comfortable for him and family, as possible.
