She graduated  from Nashua High School in 1959.<br \/>\n\t  Her first marriage to Dan Taylor brought forth Darla and Darrell during their 11 years of marriage. In November  1971, thanks to \u201ca hat\u201d attempting  to be a gentleman, and a short jockey, she met Ken Greenwood. They later married in July 1972 at the Ersland\u2019s home in Nashua. She proceeded in making a proper gentleman out of Ken and together they raised four children: Darla, Darrell, Jason and Rodney on the farm in the Glentana\/Larslan area.<br \/>\n\t  She was everything to her family. As the full quote says, \u201cA jack of all trades is a master of none, but oftentimes better than a master of one,\u201d she did it all. She worked as a mother, short order cook, meat cutter, salesperson, crop adjuster, swim coach, vet assistant, cowhand, farmhand, bookkeeper  and a Postmaster at the former Glentana Post Office.  She gave 110 percent of herself because 100 percent was never enough.<br \/>\n\t  She was a very devote Christian and enjoyed singing  at church, playing cards, puzzles, reading, keeping her children in check and dancing.  Besides teaching Ken, the finer points of dancing, she especially enjoyed her time with everyone at Yuma Ventures Park. When she and Ken semi-retired during the winters in Yuma, Ariz., she found a very loving and fun group of people. They support  her through the good times, health issues and made her a welcomed member  of the community.<br \/>\n\t  She is survived by her husband, Ken Greenwood; children, Darla Ortner, Darrell  Greenwood and Jason Greenwood; sister, Shirley Ersland; nine grandchildren; and five great-grandchildren  She was preceded in death by her son, Rodney Greenwood.<br \/>\n\t  Family received friends Wednesday, Feb. 22, from 5 to 7 p.m. A funeral service is planned at the Glasgow Evangelical Church at 11 a.m. Thursday, Feb. 23, with Pastors  Tom Fauth and Owen Childers officiating. Burial will take place in Highland Cemetery in Glasgow. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":54024,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[4],"tags":[],"news-destination":[14],"news-source":[11],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.northernplainsindependent.com\/northernplainsindependent\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/54034"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.northernplainsindependent.com\/northernplainsindependent\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.northernplainsindependent.com\/northernplainsindependent\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.northernplainsindependent.com\/northernplainsindependent\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.northernplainsindependent.com\/northernplainsindependent\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=54034"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.northernplainsindependent.com\/northernplainsindependent\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/54034\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":54309,"href":"https:\/\/www.northernplainsindependent.com\/northernplainsindependent\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/54034\/revisions\/54309"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.northernplainsindependent.com\/northernplainsindependent\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/54024"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.northernplainsindependent.com\/northernplainsindependent\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=54034"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.northernplainsindependent.com\/northernplainsindependent\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=54034"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.northernplainsindependent.com\/northernplainsindependent\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=54034"},{"taxonomy":"news-destination","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.northernplainsindependent.com\/northernplainsindependent\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news-destination?post=54034"},{"taxonomy":"news-source","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.northernplainsindependent.com\/northernplainsindependent\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/news-source?post=54034"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
