Obituary
His funeral service will be 11:00 a.m. Friday, July 24, 2015 at St. Vincent's Catholic Church in Springfield, with Pastor Ken Johnson officiating. Burial will be in the St. Vincent Catholic Cemetery, rural Springfield. Visitation will be Thursday from 5 to 6 p.m. at the Crosby-Jaeger Funeral Home in Springfield.
Alfred C. Stockholm Jr. was born April 20, 1929, to Alfred and Emma (Swenson) Stockholm in Niobrara, Neb. He died Sunday, July 19th, 2015, at the Good Samaritan Society in Tyndall at the age of 86 years.
He married Neva Jean Weisser on June 17, 1952. The couple had three children and made their home in Springfield. Alfred was a carpenter and cabinet maker for more than 60 years in the Springfield area including Wagner, Yankton, and Lake Andes. Operating his own business, he constructed homes, commercial buildings, school additions, and churches including St. Vincent's Catholic Church and Our Savior's Lutheran Church in Springfield. A true craftsman, "Stocky" brought a custom touch to and took pride in his building projects.
Alfred served on the Springfield Volunteer Fire Department and Springfield City Council for more than two decades. He was a past member of the Chamber of Commerce and was instrumental in the construction of the Springfield City Swimming Pool made possible with volunteers. Alfred continued to make cabinets into his 80's and was regularly seen about town with his beloved dog Zipper.

Alfred was preceded in death by his wife Neva, his parents, five sisters, Phynus (Herbert) Thompson, Evelyn (Amos) Hoerger, Betty (Bob) Dixon, Darlene (Marvin) Alport, and Violet (Richard) Dirks; and a grandson Simon Lee Stockholm.
