A memorial service will be held at 2:00 PM on Saturday, August 25, 2018, at the Kingdom Hall of Jehovah Witnesses for Aleida Hoting of Wadena, with Larry Schwartz presiding. The gathering of friends and family will begin one hour prior to the service. Aleida Hoting was born at home to Harm and Zena (Groen) Hoting on December 16, 1932, in Westside Township, Nobles County, MN. She graduated from Wadena High School in 1950 and in her senior year started working as a receptionist, bookkeeper and tax preparer at the Ray Tibbetts Accounting office in Wadena. Her hours away from work were filled with golfing, bowling, ceramics and reading her Bible. On July 6, 1941, at the age of 9, she was baptized in the symbol of her dedication to Jehovah and throughout her life she shared her faith and her beliefs in various ways. Following a brief illness at the age of 85, Aleida passed away with family at her side on Thursday, August 16, 2018, at her home in Wadena, MN, with the kindhearted presence of Knute Nelson Hospice Care staff. Preceding Aleida in death were her parents Harm and Zena; brothers Dick and George; and sister Ann. Left to hold her in their memories are her brother Henry (Alyce) Hoting of Willmar, sisters-in-law Sharon Hoting of Willmar and Patricia Hoting of Staples; beloved nieces and nephews; along with her friends and neighbors. Casket bearers were Joe Mrazek, Nate Converse, Earl Hoting, Dustin Hotingh, Mike Carter and Dennis Bloom. Burial was previously held in the Wadena Cemetery, Wadena, MN.
