She was a member of Progres- sive Young Women, Lake Preston Lutheran Church, and American Lutheran Church Women. Marlys passed away Friday, November 8, 1985, at the Kings- bury Memorial Hospital in Lake Preston. The sixth grade had an excit- ing year in basketball with a final record of 8-1 for the girls and 6-1 for the boys. The sixth graders played Wil- low Lake and were the only team to beat them, and defeated them three times. They placed first in the Lake Preston tournament, also placed first in the Willow Lake Lions Tournament, and they placed second in the Mitchell Tournament. The sixth graders also thought that the assemblies that the school had on Wild Bill West and the Vanishing Species were very excit- ing. The sixth grade went on two field trips. They went to Oldham, and to see the play “Wizard of Oz” in Brookings. Some of the students remem- bered putting on the Christmas concert and being the oldest grade in the elementary.
