You can see Aunt Lenora's grave in this album
NOTE: We have very few photos of Aunt Lenora. If anyone
has additional pictures or information, please contact Dave.
We owe Aunt Ida a special thank you for her contribution
to this album, via her daughter, Patty Olson.
Sadly, we have very little biographical information regarding Aunt Lenora. Aunt Ida's photo album has only 3 photos of her, and a short description of why she only lived for about 15 months before dying of bronchial pneumonia.
If you ever visit Gpa & Gma's burial site, you can find Aunt Lenora's gravesite less than a hundred feet to the North-West, very close to to the south side of an old growth fir tree.
In the mid 20th century, Aunt Ida and several other siblings contributed to the cost of replacing her primitive gravestone with one more modern at the time. However, being located next to a large tree caused the headstone to slowly disappear over the last half century beneath a continual rain of needles and pine cones. Due to Cousin Patty's concern and persistence, she persuaded the Multnomah County caretakers to elevate the headstone in 2022. It is now very easy to find, if you wish to visit her grave. THANK YOU, Cousin Patty!!!
