The memorial service for Eva Annette Bure Hulburt will be at the Round Prairie Lutheran Church, rural Glenville, Minnesota on November 5th at 11 a.m. Interment will be at Graceland Cemetery, Albert Lea, Minnesota at 3 p.m.

Eva, 97, passed away Sunday morning, October 9, 2011 at San Antonio, Hospital in Upland, California.

Eva was born August 28th, 1914 to Carl and Christine Bure in Pequot Lakes, Minnesota. Her family moved to a farm in Freeman Township where she also attended school.

She was united in marriage to Floyd Hulburt on March 9th, 1933, and resided on a farm at Norcross, Minnesota where they raised turkeys.

They were parents to six children, Irene, Jerry, Marvin, Glenn, Vivian, and Loren. Eva also provided a home for three of her grandchildren.

After many years on the farm, they moved to Glenville where they resided for many years before moving to Crystal Springs, Florida where they enjoyed fishing, gardening, and pottery. Later they moved to New Richland, Minnesota where Eva enjoyed gardening, quilting, and cooking meals for her family. Highlights for her family were the many quilting bees she hosted.

Eva spent the last five years of her life in Chino, California with her granddaughter Kathy and her husband Fernando. She loved the beautiful California weather and being able to sit in the swing on the patio with her coffee and her best friend, Mitzi, her cat. She also enjoyed watering the beautiful flowers.

Eva is survived by her sons, Jerry of Rochester, Glenn, (Diane) of Waterville, Loren of Rochester, sister Leah Olson of Albert Lea, many grandchildren, great grandchildren, great great grandchildren, nieces and nephews.

Eva was preceded in death by her parents, husband Floyd, infant daughter, Vivian, daughter Irene, son, Marvin, grandson Danny, brothers, Jasper, Albert, Carl and Edward, sisters, Ina and Amy.

Eva will be greatly missed, especially the hugs of love she was always eager to give.

Out of our embrace into heaven’s grace and peace. Blessed be her memory.
