Kae LaVee Chelsvig, daughter of Arthur and Gladys (Severson) Chelsvig, was born
on September 11, 1938 in Jefferson, Iowa. Kae grew up and attended school in
Kanawha. She graduated from Kanawha High School in 1956. After high school, Kae
attended Hamilton's Business College in Mason City. She moved to St. Paul,
Minnesota where she worked at Silver's Jewelry Store before moving back to
Kanawha.
On April 27, 1962, Kae was united in marriage with Louis Dallman at the First
Lutheran Church in Britt. They made their home on the farm outside of Kanawha
where they raised their five children.
Through the years, besides helping on the farm and being a farm wife and mother,
Kae volunteered as a Boy Scout leader, was president of the Kanawha Swimming
Pool, and was a Sunday school teacher at the Kanawha Lutheran Church. She also
worked at the Kanawha and Belmond Care Centers.
Kae enjoyed reading books, gardening, and loved taking care of her pets on the
farm.
Kae was a kind and loving person with a sense of humor, and who always had a
smile on her face. What made her most happy and proud was being a wife, mother,
and grandmother and spending time with her family and friends.
