Malfrid was a homemaker that worked part-time at Lemon Grove Bakery for a number of years. Molly enjoyed reading, crosswords, Bingo and finding bargains when shopping. She was an avid animal lover and rallied for legislation to have greyhounds adopted after their racing career instead of being euthanized.
She is remembered for her dry sense of humor, being intelligent, thoughtful, gracious, kindly, generous in every way and respected and adored by many.
Malfrid is survived by her 3 daughters Astrid Holten (Roald), Lillian Towers (Bruce Byfield) and Michelle Horst (Keith). Her grandchildren Kristina, Magnus, Vanessa, Joseph (Laura), Simone and Camille; great grandchildren Klaire and Riley; brother Oddie Lovseth and sister Asborg Stromgren.
In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations be made to the San Diego Humane Society and SPCA to honor her love of animals.
Per her request, there will be no formal service. Family will be present at Fort Rosecrans National Cemetery in San Diego, where she will be placed with her husband, Easten.
Malfrid was much loved and will be greatly missed.
