Mabel was born the daughter of Erick and Ella Larson on August 10, 1928 in Colgan, ND. Following her education in Colgan, she went on to work at a relative’s farm in Minnesota, as a telephone operator in Spokane, WA, and as a waitress and salesperson in the Crosby area. She retired after a long and successful career as a supervisor of the Bookkeeping Department at the Farmer’s State Bank in Crosby.

She married Morris Hysjulien in 1958. They had two sons, Gene and Steven. Mabel enjoyed spending time with her family, camping, fishing, golfing and bowling. She especially loved family gatherings during the holidays – enjoying each other’s company, home-cooked meals, and delicious baked goodies. Mabel loved to visit with family and friends, socializing and playing cards, an occasional trip to the casino and rooting for the Minnesota Twins.

Mabel is survived by her children Gene (Dianna) and Steve; seven grandchildren and several great-grandchildren.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Morris; daughter-in-law Liz; and a granddaughter.

Memorials in Mabel’s name may be made to the National Kidney Foundation or the Juvenile Arthritis Association.
