Orlo Niel Schervem, 87, of Presho went home on Saturday, Feb. 26 at Avera Queen of Peace in Mitchell SD.
Funeral services were held on Thursday, March 3 at 11 am at the First United Methodist Church in Presho, with visitation for one hour prior and burial at the Presho City Cemetery.
Orlo was born on Jan. 15, 1935 to Nels and Cjerstina Schervem on the family ranch south of Vivian on the White River. He grew up on the family ranch and attended grade school at the Riverside #15 Country School where his mom taught him. She and Orlo, along with other students, lived there during the week and went home on weekends. She taught Orlo 7 out of 8 years. He went on to attend Vivian High School where he graduated in 1953 with one of the largest classes. There were 14 graduates.
After graduation he served in the US Army as an Army Medic from 1957-1959 at Ft. Sheridan, Illinois.
After his service he moved back home and lived on the family ranch. He met Evelyn McClanahan at a dance in Vivian where he claimed he couldn’t leave because she was sitting on his coat. They were married on June 26 1982 at the First United Methodist Church in Presho. They made their home on the ranch where Orlo enjoyed ranching and had fond memories of raising Black Angus cattle and spending time with neighbors and lifelong friends, Terry and Kay Moore. They moved to Presho in 2006 and sold the ranch on auction June 9, 2018. He loved to laugh and his trademark shoulder shake will be fondly remembered. Not only was he the president of the coffee club at Hutch’s Café, he was also the head story teller at the lunch counter and named the assistant silverware wrapper. He enjoyed watching grandkids play sports and was an avid reader of western and history books.
Orlo is survived by his wife Evelyn “Tooty” of Presho. Just a few days ago, while sharing about how quickly life goes by and what really matters, he said these words. “It’s like you spend your life driving down the road looking at the beautiful sunsets, mountains, trees, and wildflowers in the field, and you just know that you know God is real and that He’s good. But then you find a girl like Tooty to ride beside you and everything comes alive, and it all has purpose. She was the best thing that ever happened to me”
He is also survived by stepdaughters; Teri Nyberg and Tani (Brent) Parker all of Sioux Falls, stepsons; Scott (Heidi) McClanahan and Bret (Tami) McClanahan all of Presho, 10 grandchildren and 15 great grandchildren. Other surviving family includes 2 sisters; Alice King and Shirley Vik and 7 nieces and nephews; Allen and Linda King, Steve, Ken, Brian, and Doug Vik, and Kathy Fuoss.
Orlo was preceded in death by his parents and 2 brothers-in-law; Bob King and Ray Vik.
Winner came out on top winning the Class B state dual championship.
After claiming third place in the individual tournament Friday night, the Warriors went to work and put their whole heart into winning the dual tournament.
That excitement started with coaches Spencer Novotny and Jayd Schuyler and was transferred to each wrestler who stepped on the mat. It was electric and as each wrestler won in the championship match the excitement grew.
Winner dominated Bon Homme/Scotland/Avon in round one 70-9, handled Parkston in round two 57-8. The Warriors notched the championship title with a 33-25 win over Kimball/White Lake/ Platte-Geddes.
This was the first Class B dual title for the Warriors. “We’ve gotten second the last four years in individuals, we’ve gotten second in duals to Canton the last two years and with five seniors it is awesome to get this done,” said coach Spencer Novotny. “To go out there and avenge our only loss of the season against Kimball, it’s just a great day.”
Winner had two wrestlers, Maxton Brozik at 113 pounds and Kaden Keiser at 145 pounds pick up state championships.
In addition to the two champions, Winner had five other wrestlers place at the state level.
Both Kaleb Osborn at 126 and Jack Kruger at 182, wrestled in a championship match but were defeated and took runner-up honors.
Riley Orel at 160 took third, Achilles Willuweit at 220 took fourth and Charley Pravecek at 195 took fifth.
For Kaden Keiser it was a great way to end his senior year in high school as plans to further his wrestling career in college.
Keiser was named the outstanding wrestler in Class B.
His fourth state title puts him in the record books at Winner High School. He is the first WHS wrester to four state titles. There have been others who have won three, but Keiser is the first to win four.
Friday in the semifinals of the individual tournament, Keiser set a state record for the most wins with 281. A Rapid City wrestler held the record at 280. What is neat, Keiser holds the record for both Class A and B.
“I am just grateful for everything and every opportunity I get,” Keiser told Ryan Deal of 605 Sports. “I can’t be more thankful for my friends, family, coaches and all of them.”
Keiser is now one of 11 wrestlers in state history to earn four state championships.
“I’ve dreamed of this moment for a long time and it just finally happened,” he said. He will continue his wrestling career at Appalachian State in North Carolina.
