Iva Louise Seefeldt (Allen) was born Feb. 18, 1939, in Delavan Minn., the daughter of Daniel and Emma Allen. She was a proud mother of seven children and worked as a homemaker and former line worker at Stokely VanCamp. She enjoyed spending time with her family and friends most, playing games, listening to her favorite man, Elvis Presley, and testing her luck at bingo and the casino. She also admired fishing; life was quite the catch for her. Iva is survived by her children, Ruth (Harvey) Hayner of Des Moines, Iowa, Matt Matheson (Bill Sinclair) of Blue Earth, Rose (Angel) Martinez of St. James, Dan (Nancy) Matheson of Denver, Colo., Tim (Betty) Matheson of Blue Earth, and Becky Matheson of Storm Lake, Iowa, many grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and great-great-grandchildren; other extended family and friends. She was preceded in death by her parents, Daniel and Emma (Fowler) Allen; husband, Melvin Seefeldt; sisters, Ruth Stalling, Arlene Yoho, Helen Masters and Donna Kramer; her brothers, Kenny, Harold, James “Bud” Allen; and her son, John Matheson. www.spencerowen.com
