Newspaper Page Text2A THE DAILY ASTORIAN • WEDNESDAY, JUNE 14, 2017 Question: What advice would you give to a graduating senior? “Stay ﬂ exible. You’ll have more opportu- nities that way.” “Don’t believe every- thing you read or hear. Investigate on your own. Be an in- dependent thinker.” “I’d say to make sure you work hard. There’s no substitute for hard work.” Kasper Bohne Astoria Lisa Deneen Seaview, Washington Guillermo Romero Warrenton THE DAILY ASTORIAN // QUESTION OF THE WEEK Mary Marjolaine Bruer Truedson Elizabeth May Lampien Seaside Dec. 10, 1922 — June 10, 2017 Hillsboro Dec. 1, 1933 — June 7, 2017 Mary Marjolaine Bruer Truedson, known by many as Marge, several by Granny T, some by Auntie M, and ﬁ ve by Mom, died in her sleep June 10, 2017, in Seaside, Oregon. She was born to Faye and Henry Bruer in a logging camp in Kerry, Oregon, on Dec. 10, 1922, the wedding anniversary of her soon-to-be favorite uncle, Bill, who left his young wife that stormy night to drive a rail- road handcar up the line to fetch the doctor in a driving snowstorm. Marge grew up dividing her time between Clatsop and Columbia counties. She had one brother, Wesley Bruer, who proceeded her in death in 2013. She graduated from St. Helens High School in 1940, where she was well-known for her art and roller skating skills. She lived through the Great Depression, learning the value of “waste not, want not.” She married Carlton Purvis and together they had three children: Carla, Marcia and Mel. The marriage ended, and later she mar- ried Donald Truedson, and they had two more children: Patti and Paul. Mary and Donald made their home in St. Helens. Donald worked at “the paper mill.” Besides being a wife and mother, Marge painted, drew, sewed, crocheted and even worked for Carl Brandenfel of Brandenfel’s Baldness Scalp Hair Care Health Beauty Toiletry. Marge didn’t work for the infamous hair care division, she worked for Oregon Holly, gift baskets and parcels. She made everything from “Kissing Balls,” made from pine cones and mistletoe, to elaborate swags and baskets. She even made a few designs of her own. She and her coworkers often came away from work gig- gling, “probably from the glue.” After the last of her ﬁ ve children gradu- ated from St. Helens High School and Don- ald retired, they sold their house and moved to Seaside, where Marge devoted a great deal of her time to painting. She took classes, joined the Trail’s End Art Guild, and even had a small room in a co-op where she sold paintings, cards, rock people and sand dollar Christmas ornaments, among other things. She loved oil painting with brushes the best. The couple traveled by air, rail, ship and car all across the U.S. mainland, Mexico and the Hawaiian Islands. Donald preceded Marge in death in 2006. Marge is survived by her ﬁ ve children, and several grandchildren, great-grand- children, and even a couple great-great grandchildren. No funeral is scheduled.
