My Sister's Obituary

Candice Colette Goetz found peace on Oct. 26, 2006, after a long fight with cancer.

A memorial service is Friday, Nov. 17 at 2 p.m. MST at Peace Lutheran Church, Hazen. Per Candice’s wishes, her body was donated to science and there is no visitation.

Candice Colette Lindborg was born in Harvey on July 24, 1958, to Darlene (Dell) Schaper Lindborg and Alf Lindborg. She was baptized at Hurdsfield Lutheran Church in August 1958.

In 1963, the family moved to Sheridan, Wyo., where Candice grew up and always considered “home.” In Sheridan, she was confirmed, attended school and enjoyed camping in the Big Horn Mountains.

In 1976, they moved to Hazen, where Candice graduated from high school. In 1978, Candice married Garrett Goetz and together they raised two children, Adina Denton and Tyler Goetz.

Candice worked as a medical secretary at the Hazen Clinic, through St. Alexius for 17 years and was a medical transcriptionist for Medcenter One for five years. She retired when she became ill in July 2005.

Candice enjoyed photography, reading, writing, thunderstorms and nature in general, but most of all her family and her three miniature schnauzers.

Candice is deeply missed by her husband, Garrett, Hazen; two children, Adina (Paul Crites) Denton and Tyler Goetz, all of Bismarck; mother, Dell Thompson, Dickinson; father, Alf Lindborg, Polson, Mont.; three brothers, Randy (Cathy) Lindborg, Dickinson, Roddy Lindborg, Dickinson, and Ronny Lindborg, Grand Forks; two sisters, Tami (Doug Schmidt) Farrington, Dickinson, and Tarra (Matt) Hartl, Bismarck; many nieces and nephews whom she adored; godparents, Willie and Della Schaper, Beulah, and Vera Thompson, Hursfield, and her three dogs, Oliver, Raisin and Siggy.

Greeting Candice in heaven are her stepfather, Robert Thompson; mother-in-law, Elsie Goetz; grandparents, Peter and Selma Lindborg and Henry and Katherina Schaper, and one godfather, Norman Thompson.
