The Iowa State Patrol reports 55-year-old Lori Sokolowski of Holstein lost control of the car she driving and hit an oncoming pickup. Sokolowski and a passenger, 28-year-old Maria Pencook of Albert City, were both pronounced dead at the scene. The driver of the pickup, 48-year-old Deron Schmidt of Battle Creek, was transported by ambulance to a hospital in Ida Grove.
