Heidi M (Larson) Minor, age 57, of Isanti, Minnesota passed away on Saturday, April 15, 2017 at her home on Long Lake after a 29 month courageous fight with Uterine Leiomyosarcoma. Preceded in death by her mother, Dolores, her father, Carl and her nephew, Kyle Larson. Survived by her loving husband of 29 years, Pat Minor; her children, Allison (Ryan) Mulcahy, Randi (Jason) Nerlien, Carli Brown, Jon (Jordan) Minor; her grandchildren, Tate Nerlien, Brayden Emerson, Reese Mulcahy, Lydia Nerlien, Cameron Minor, David Mulcahy and Carsyn Brown; her siblings, Stephan Larson of AZ, Heather Swanson of AZ, Scott Larson of MN, Jamie (Paul) Marsnik of MN, Nikki (Chris) Redden of AZ and many nieces and nephews.
Heidi was born on February 12, 1960 and went to Fridley schools where she had many close lifelong friends. Heidi worked at Wells Fargo for 34 years most recently as the Vice President of National Underwriting. Heidi was blessed to have forged many friendships with fellow Wells employees all over the United States.
Heidi’s passion for travel took her to four continents and all over the US. She most recently traveled to Germany and Austria. Heidi also enjoyed golf and gardening and lived a lot of her life outside. In the summer, she was often found on her pontoon enjoying Long Lake with her husband.
Heidi will be remembered for her generous spirit, contagious sense of humor and her genuine interest in people. If ever there was a celebration or family occasion to be planned, Heidi was usually the main driving force making sure a good time was had by all. Her most heartfelt passion was her grandchildren and she cherished the time she spent with them. Heidi was deeply, deeply loved and her passing creates a great void in our lives.

Dear Pat and Family – I can’t even begin to imagine your great loss and I sorrow with you. Thank you for sharing Heidi with all of us. I’ve known Heidi since 1989. She will forever be in our heart. I will always hate that we shared uterine cancer and wish I could have taken hers. Please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers. Here are some words of comfort:
Heidi was known for so many things, it’s rare to find all of these in one person – here are only a few of her wonderful qualities:
* Her love for Jesus #1
* Her love to study the Bible and Daily Devotions
* Her passion for her family and grandkids – she loved you all tremendously
* She always had words of encouragement and comfort for others
* She gave her all in EVERYTHING she did
* Extremely intelligent
* A mentor to so many
* A friend to everyone
* She could have FUN! and bring everyone along
* One of the most organized people I have ever known
* One of the best mothers EVER
* Was crazy in love with Pat :-)
* Thoroughly enjoyed her trips
* Went deep on everything she did – to help a Customer, a friend, a team mate and especially her family
* Loved her work
* Wanted the best for others and that her family will be happy
* Was an extreme prayer warrior!!!
* She lived life to the FULLEST!!! She lived, loved and did for others more than many do in a multitude of lifetimes XOXOXO
It’s so hard to see Heidi go at such a young age, but an enemy came and planted tares at night.
***The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field: But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat***
May you find comfort from the words below as we look forward to a better day with this hope – looking forward to seeing Heidi again where we can be together again forever:
1 Thessalonians 4:13-18
13 But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope.
14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.
15 For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.
16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
18 Wherefore comfort one another with these words.
Linda Elie says
All so true….and you were a strong guiding light to God for Heidi. Our world here is grieving, but we WILL be with here again…..for the promises if God are for WHOSOEVER WILL BELIEVE…….HE TOLD US! SHE BELIEVED AND WANTED THIS! :) Praise God! Xox

Pat and Family, sending you my prayers and sympathy. I so enjoyed working with Heidi and will treasure the wonderful memories.

God answered my prayer for your peace and serenity but in the wake has left me empty. I know you will always be with me, I can feel your ever presence with me. My emptiness will be forever till we are together again. Celebrated my dearest one and enjoy the fruits of your labor from your life you created here on earth. For now you have been blessed with the kingdom of heaven. Please save me a place by you till the time comes. Help me through my desperate hours, minuets, years without you . I GREIVE. Enjoy your peaceful place , you have paid your dues . You are my angel . As you told me, I love you from the top of your head to the tips of your toes. ” ON THE BEACH OR UNDER THE SEA, MERMAID SISTERS WE WILL ALWAYS BE” Your Sissy and Peter

Gregory Leaon says
I am deeply saddened about the passing of Heidi (Larson) Minor. We grew up together in the same neighborhood. We went through elementary, junior high school, and high school together. She was an attractive and friendly woman who always had a beautiful smile on her face. I talked to Heidi at our 35 year high school class reunion in June 2013 as I did previous reunions. She was always sweet and delightful to be around. Heidi will be missed by all who knew her. My deepest and most heartfelt sympathy goes out to her husband, children, family, and friends. May she rest in eternal peace with our Lord Savior Jesus Christ.
Sincerely,
Gregory Leaon
