Mrs. Lundell, 88, of
Chester, MT, died Sunday,
October 7, 2007 at Liberty
Medical Center in Chester,
MT.
She was born De
cember 15, 1918 in lone, the
daughter of Alonzo and Lola
Olden McCabe. She was
bom in the McCabe-Olden
Century Farmhouse that her
grandfather built, and where
her m other was born. It
was located in the Fairview
District south o f lone. Mrs.
Lundell was the seventh of
nine children.
In 1925, when Char
lotte was in the first grade,
the family moved to lone
so that the younger children
could attend the new school.
She graduated from the lone
School in 1937. For the
following year, Charlotte
worked as a waitress at the
Welcome Hotel in Arlington.
She was very honored to be
called back in to serve the
famous baseball player, Ty
Cobb, who was a friend of
the owner of the hotel - her
“fifteen minutes o f fame!”
On October 6, 1938,
she married Raymond Lun
dell in Vancouver, WA. He
had contracted to operate the
school bus from the Goose
berry area to the lone School
when the districts began
to consolidate. C harlotte
helped with the route for
the next four years. During
this time, they moved onto
the former Ivar Nelson place
at Gooseberry, where they
farmed for 30 years. Two
daughters were bom, Karen
Rae and Cheryle Ann.
M rs. Lundell had
early roots in the lone Com
munity Church and taught
Sunday school there. She
was baptized and a long-time
member o f Valby Lutheran
Church, where she taught
Vacation Bible School and
was active in the church.
She kept busy with school
and community events, and
spent countless hours driv
ing her daughters to their
music lessons, 4-H m eet
ings and school activities.
C harlotte was a m em ber
of the Arnica Club o f lone,
P.T.A. and also enjoyed the
activities o f the Heppner
Elks Club. Cooking for the
harvest crews every summer
was a big part of her life on
the farm.
She was an excellent
seamstress, making many
o f her own clothes and also
sewing for her daughters.
She also enjoyed gardening
and cooking, and took an
early interest in nutrition.
Her daughters rem em ber
going to “juice bars” in Port
land when they were young,
long before juice bars were
fashionable.
In 1969, Charlotte
and Raymond moved from
lone to Eugene, where they
lived for the next 35 years.
They created a comfortable
home, but always kept their
ties with Eastern Oregon.
They also enjoyed traveling
over the years with friends
and family, to Canada, New
York, the New England
states, as well as the west
coast. Their 50th anniver
sary was celebrated with a
memorable trip to Hawaii.
But most o f all, they shared
a love o f the Oregon Coast
and spent many hours walk
ing the beaches there.
M rs. Lundell was
proud o f her heritage and
enjoyed fam ily reunions.
She developed a deep inter
est in family history and
spent close to a decade do
ing research and contacting
relatives. The couple would
drop anything to help out
with the grandchildren or
special occasions.
She is survived by:
her daughters, Karen Stack
o f Chester, MT and Cheryle
Foskett o f Monterey, CA;
brother, Ernest McCabe of
Heppner; six grandchildren;
and nine great-grandchil
dren. She was preceded
