Rev. Jennings G. Feroe
Beloved Husband, Dad, Grandpa and Great-Grandpa Jennings Feroe passed away Sunday morning, November 22, 2009, at the Northfield Hospital, at the age of 96.
Jennings Gotfred Feroe was born August 17, 1913, in Madison, Minnesota, to Albert and Jensena (Anderson) Feroe. He was baptized and confirmed at First Lutheran Church and graduated from Madison Normal School in 1931. In 1935, he received his Bachelor of Arts Degree in Teaching from St. Olaf College and in 1939 graduated from Luther Seminary. In August 1939, he went to study at an independent seminary in Oslo, Norway, and during that time he witnessed the occupation by the Nazis. In 1940, he returned to the United States and helped establish a home mission church in Ingleside, Illinois, north of Chicago. He then joined the US Navy and served from February 1943 to December 1945, part of that time as Chief of Chaplains at the Hawaii Air Force Base. He married Elaine Hjortland on January 21, 1945, at Ascension Lutheran Church in Milwaukee. Following his honorable discharge from the Navy, they moved to Mankato where he served as pastor of Bethlehem Lutheran Church until June 1973. They moved to Northfield and Jennings worked in the Development Department at St. Olaf College until 1979. He served as visitation pastor at St. John’s Lutheran Church from 1979 until retiring in 1997.
Jennings was a member of St. John’s Lutheran Church and Retired Ministers Group. He was former board president of Lutheran Social Services, Chairman of the Board of Missions of the ELCA, former vice-president of the Southern Minnesota Synod, and a former Regent and Distinguished Alumnus of St. Olaf College. He enjoyed collecting valentines, post cards, feeding the birds, and he was an avid fan of St. Olaf athletics. He was a wise and compassionate man who cared deeply about his family, his friends, the church and St. Olaf College. He was a master of the art of conversation and loved for his ability to tell a good story.

They are more evidence of the Nike Soccer Boot of adding air sneakers as an artistic element of a cheap brands jeans overall design. Normally, as we the fall/winter seasons, fur and shearling linings are the most common usage we see of these ed hardy bedding.This is beyond the actual ’shoes I’d like to Gucci watch ecommerce and into the land of ‘If I had an unlimited budget I’d consider opening a shoe-museum’.While that’s than the gucci bags, this isn’t exactly to the cheap brands jeans as B Brian Atwood is not a diffusion line but a compliment to the air sneakers.
