Closest Airport to Sheldon, Iowa?

My husband's family lives in that area. His grandfather died and I'm trying to get him a flight into or closest to Sheldon for a one day turnaround trip so he can be there for the services. We cannot spend a lot of money on little charter flights, so we need an airport that supports many carriers, that way we have some room to play with different airlines and prices. Any suggestions?

Update:

We are located in Southern California. He needs to be there tomorrow! Aug. 29?!

Update 2:

Orange County, our closest airports are John Wayne (Orange County) or Long Beach, California.

    Suox City is the closest airport in

    From where do u want to travel and I can work out the schedule for u

    ============================

    Please give ur exact place in southern california

    ================================

    Since u have mentioned it is southern california

    GIven below is the time table from San Diego to Sioux City

    Northwest - NW 186 Dep from San Diego = at 0845 - arrival at Minniapolis at 1417

    Dep from Minnieapolis to Sioux city by NE 3352 at 1505 and arrival at 1602

    It takes 5 hours 17 mins for the travel

    From there it is 60 miles - so it should one hour drive

    Since I am in India - I access a system and the price which I get for a return with restrictions is about 650 dollars

    Contact a travel agent for more

    ===================================

    Since u mentioned Long Veach it is better to fly from LA

    Closest would be either Sioux Falls or Sioux City

    Norhwest flies 5 daily Minneapolis - Sioux City with Saab turboprop or CRJ regional jet

    Sioux Falls - Chicago is offered by United with 4-5 daily flights, using CRJ regional jet.

    Sioux Falls - Minneapolis offers up to 8 daily flight by Northwest with either Saab Turboprop, DC9, Airbus 319/320, or Avro Regional Jet

    Not knowing your exact location, these are the general ones I can find.
