Mrs. Ackerman served as a Cub Scout den mother and was a charter member of the Emblem Club.

Survivors include her son, Les of Lakeview; son and daughter-in-law, Dale and Suzette of Lakeview; daughter and son-in-law, Gayle and Dave Johnston of Lakeview; sisters, Bell, Dagne and Gen; brother, Ossie; eight grandchildren; and three great-grandchildren.
