JOHN A. NAGEL
The Nagels moved to Selfridge, Sioux County in 1918. Mr. Nagel
took over the Management of the Citizen State
Bank. They lived in Selfridge until 1944 and
then as John had accepted a position with the
Internal Revenue they moved to Minot. In 1958
they moved to Coon Rapids, Minn., where they
lived in retirement.
During the time they lived
in Selfridge they were very active in civic and
community affairs. They built their home in
1919 and also built the Palace Hotel and drug
store. John was also a postmaster in Selfridge.
It was with a feeling of deep sorrow that
we learned of Mrs. [Mabel Luehring Nagel] Nagel's death May 12, 1961.
Her work and efforts and achievements here will
live in the hearts of those who knew her best.
She always had a kind word and helping hand
for all.
