Ferdinand "Ferd" Ohlhauser, 89, of Miles City passed away on Wednesday, Jan. 30, 2008, at the Holy Rosary Healthcare in Miles City.
He was born on Aug. 13, 1918, on the family homestead near Rock Springs, the son of Jacob and Christina Naasz Ohlhauser. He was raised on the family homestead and attended schools at the Crow Rock, Sutherland, and Uall country schools where he graduated from the eighth grade.
Mr. Ohlhauser remained on the homestead where he farmed and ranched with his brother Herman all of their lives. They farmed with horses in the early year, which is where Mr. Ohlhauser gained his love of animals. The two brothers operated the place together until Herman died in 1997. Ferd Ohlhauser continued to run the farm himself until he moved into Miles City in 2004 and eventually sold the place.
Mr. Ohlhauser enjoyed attending local and area rodeos and was even known to be bucked off of a few horses. He also enjoyed music and playing the accordion. He loved visiting with family, friends and neighbors.
His survivors include his sister, Lydia Waldow of Miles City; a nephew, Stanley Waldow of Longview, Texas; four nieces: Donna Flanigan of Miles City, Sandra Danforth of Carson City, Nev., Linda Edwards of Fernley, Nev., and Nancy Seright of Post Falls, Idaho; and 10 great-nieces and great-nephews.
He was preceded in death by his parents, and a brother, Herman.
The family will receive friends from 4 to 6 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 7, 2008, at Steveson and Sons Funeral Home in Miles City.
