Sarah E. (Stone) Harrison, a
resident of Wood Village for the
past eight years and of the Gre
sham area most of her life, died
June 19, at the Gresham General
Hospital after a short illness.
Mrs. Harrison was born on an
80-acre homestead between Sandy
and Eagle Creek, on July 7, 1888.
She and her three sisters, Alma
and El;en Stone and Mrs. Lee
(Signa) Ball (all of whom sur
vive her), started school in a
little one room school along the
Barlow Trail.
In 1897 the family left the home
stead and moved to a new home in
the Orient area. By this time three
brothers had joined the family.
Oscar Stone is the only surviv
ing brother. Mrs. Harrison grad
uated from the Orient Grade
School, including one year of high
school, then attended business col
lege in Portland. She later worked
for several years as a bookkeeper.
On March 29, 1916, she became
the bride of George H. Harrison,
a young minister who had left
England to be a missionary in
Canada and had crossed over into
the States. He survives her as do
the five children born to this
union: Edward S. Harrison of Mult
nomah, Mrs. B.W. (Mary E.jOver-
street of St. Helens, Mrs. D.F.
(Catherine) Robertson of Billings,
Mont., Mrs. Frank (Dorothy) Akin
of Brookings, and William H. Har
rison of Denver and 16 grand
children.
Mrs. Harrison will be remem
bered by her host of friends for
her sunny disposition and her abil
ity to bring comfort to others al
though she spent the last nine
years of her life in darkness
and lid not enjoy good health.
Her eyesight was already fail
ing when she learned that White
Birch cemetery, where several
members of her family and many
friends were buried, was to be
sold. She arranged to purchase
it and set about contacting famil
ies of the deceased so that an
organization might be formed to
provide perpetual care for the once
neglected cemetery.
Through her untiring efforts and
those of other Interested parties,
this was accomplished and she will
now also rest In White Birch
Cemetery.
Funeral services were held
Monday, at Bateman Funeral
Chapel, with concluding services
at White Birch Cemetery.
“Where should we put this, Mrs. Peterson?” ask prospec
tive kindergarten students Ricky Bignail and Bill Knapp. The
kindergarten is scheduled for fall opening.
