Warren L. Ofsthun





 

 

Warren L. Ofsthun passed away May 7, 2017 at the Minnesota Veterans Home.

Warren was born in Cyrus, Minnesota and was a World War II veteran.

Warren worked 42 years for Gambles- Skogmo, and then 20 years driving a cart at MSP International – he loved those tips! He was a fan of the Twins, Vikings, and Gophers.

Residents of the Twin Cities, the Ofsthun family has been a frequent visitor to the North Shore since the 1950s, with many a night spent in a tent pitched at the Grand Marais Recreation Park. A more permanent place to stay, and enjoy more of the Scandinavian Riviera, was realized when a family cabin near Grand Marais was purchased in 2003. Memorials preferred to the Veterans Home, Arrowhead Animal Rescue, or donor’s choice.
