The Randolph woman who survived when a truck crane crushed her car is talking about the accident that took the life of her husband of 50 years.
Donna Ohrmundt says her Christian faith kept her alive when the heavy truck tipped over and flattened their car Monday in Fond du Lac County.
Ohrmundt says the last thing she remembers is looking at the map. The State Patrol says her 73-year-old husband, Donald, pulled out into an intersection, the vehicles collided and the heavy equipment tipped over, crushing the car.
Donald Ohrmundt was pronounced dead at the scene. Donna Ohrmundt, sitting just inches away, walked away with minor injuries.
A funeral service for Donald Ohrmundt will be held Friday at St. Stephen's Evangelical Lutheran Church in Beaver Dam where the couple was married in 1957.
