Caroline Thallman loved dance, fashion
Mourners gather outside Blue Hill United Methodist Church
after the funeral for Caroline Thallman Tuesday. Thallman
was one of the four victims of the bus-semi collision last
week in Webster County.
BLUE HILL — When it came to fashion, Caroline Thallman was 10 going on 18.
That was the recollection of her aunt Janae Bauer of Adams, one of several speakers during Caroline’s funeral Tuesday morning at the United Methodist Church here, where her family attends church. The 10-year-old girl was one of four people killed when a school bus and semitrailer truck collided a week ago northeast of Cowles.
Five people, including Caroline’s younger sister, Allie, were injured in the crash. Allie has since been released from Mary Lanning Healthcare in Hastings where she was treated for injuries.
“Miss Caroline,” as she was known in school, had a fondness for zebra print anything and everything. Her first 4-H project was a zebra print skirt she entered at the Webster County Fair when she was 8.
“Caroline always tried to be on the cutting edge of the latest trends and fashions,” the Rev. Steve Marsh said.
