Harriet was born January 28, 1928, on the family farm one mile southeast of Dickey, ND, the daughter of Harry and Elsie Meiklejohn.\u00a0 The doctor came from Marion and had just delivered a son to Elsie\u2019s sister on the same day, so Harriet has a cousin with the same birthdate.\u00a0 She thought her folks would have preferred a boy because they already had a girl.\u00a0 Harriet spent a lot of time indoors due to her fair skin and helped her mother with the housekeeping.\u00a0 She attended school in Dickey for 12 years and graduated Salutatorian in 1945.\u00a0 On March 7, 1946, she married one and only, Charles Kartes.\u00a0 They went on to have 6 children, one of which (Steven) passed away at 5 months and the other five (Mark, John, Virginia, Elizabeth and Thomas) where raised on the family farm.\u00a0 She spent her days working on the farm and tending to her large family.\u00a0 Her hobbies were cooking, canning, gardening and keeping up with the kid\u2019s activities.\u00a0 Harriet was an avid Minnesota Twins fan.\u00a0 One of her most memorable times was attending a World Series game with her nephew, Keith Meiklejohn.\u00a0 She also was awarded the Master Angler from Canada.<\/p>\n

After her son Tom married and took over the family farm, Harriet and Charles moved to Jamestown.\u00a0 In their retirement they traveled to the East Coast, Alaska and often to Arizona.\u00a0 Eventually they purchased a condo in Arizona and enjoyed playing cards, touring and socializing with their Midwest friends there.<\/p>\n
