Leona Marian Terhark was born October 19, 1929, daughter of Neal and Jennie (Johnson) Stomberg. At the age of 10, Leona came to know Jesus Christ as her personal Savior at a revival meeting and was baptized a short time later. She attended country school, Elgin #4, through the 8th grade and worked in the George Bakery for a short time. She married Charles Terhark on June 6, 1949 in their farmhouse with Rev. Harm Johnson (uncle) officiating. Early in their marriage Charles and Leona lived in a tenant house adjacent to the current home where they farmed together with her parents. Leona helped on the farm walking beans, driving tractors and doing chores. In the late 1970's she started Terhark Book & Bible, where she sold bibles, wedding invitations, toys, jewelry and her favorite, Precious Moments dolls for over 35 years. Leona lived her entire life on the homestead farm until she suffered a stroke in November of 2010, thereafter being cared for at the Good Samaritan Center in George. Leona will be remembered for her dedication to family, unselfish generosity, and her desire for others to know the Lord.
