Marion L. (Buelow) Schlipp

Marion Louise Schlipp, 94, of Cambridge, MN formerly of Isanti, MN passed away on Tuesday, December 26, 2023 at Walker Methodist Levande.

She was born November 7, 1929, in Holland, Minnesota to Rev. Julius and Gladys (Myers) Buelow.  Marion grew up as a pastor’s daughter, so the family lived in many areas.  She went on to graduate high school. Following high school, she attended hairdressing school and received her hairdresser’s license.  Marion worked as a hairdresser and as a mother’s helper.  She would eventually move to Weber and it wasn’t long before she met Waldo Schlipp.  They would marry April 10, 1950 at St. John Lutheran Church in Weber.  They settled one mile east of Bodum on a farm, where they farmed together many years and raised their two children Christine and Kevin.

Marion worked many years as a nurse’s aide at the school with Gertrude Foley, at Sundberg’s Nursing Home/Cambridge Health Care Center and Grandview Christian Home from which she retired as a rehab aide.

She was a longtime active member of St. John Lutheran Church of Weber, serving on several boards and active with the ladies aide.  Marion was also a Brownie Troup leader.  She and Waldo loved to travel, making several trips worldwide.  She enjoyed spending time at the casino, loved cooking, sewing, crocheting, driving her car, and spending time in her flower and vegetable gardens.

Besides her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband Waldo in July of this year, siblings Dorothy Bentrup, Rev. Donald Buelow, Elizabeth Hanke, Rev. Paul Buelow, brother-in-law Rev. Herman Bentrup.
