Bea was born in Webster, South Dakota, February 6, 1924, to parents of Norwegian descent, Henry and Agnes (Mathiesen) Hau- Luciani gen. They lived on the family farm outside of Lily, South Dakota, where Bea enjoyed her elementary education at the little coun- try school. In order to attend high school 30 miles away, the family arranged board- ing for Bea in Webster. She received her diploma from Webster High School in 1942. After graduation, she traveled to Omaha, Nebraska, where she stud- ied to become a telegra- pher for the Union Pacific Railroad. While attend- ing school, she kept hear- ing the words of her father resonating in her head: “If you ever have the opportu- nity to go West, you should go.” He had gone to Port- land and thought it was one of the most beautiful places he had ever seen. After receiving her certificate as a telegrapher, this young 19-year-old girl traveled across country by herself to Quinton, Oregon, which is near what is now known as Philippi Canyon. Quinton was not quite Portland, but it turned out to be a pretty awesome place because she met the love of her life. She became friends with the section foreman Fiore Borghese and his wife Carmelita, who lived nearby in Arlington. They both took quite a liking to this sweet naïve girl from South Dakota and took her under their wings. Carmel said she had a good-look- ing brother she would like to introduce her to. Bea in agreement met this tall, handsome Italian man from Echo. The sparks flew and it was love at first sight. Like many young men in that time, George was sent to basic Army train- ing at Camp Roberts. While on leave George and Bea were married on Febru- ary 4, 1945, in Pendleton, Oregon. Bea was a patient bride, waiting for her new groom to come home from serving in the Philippines and also a short time in Japan. Once home, they started their new life together in Pendleton until the couple pursued George’s love of farming. They then moved to Pine City and formed a lease partnership with Leo Ashbeck. In 1965 they pur- chased their own farm, which is still located on Butter Creek. Butter Creek was a lively place with George and Bea around. The family enjoyed many happy times with neighbors at the Pine City School House. It was a storybook existence, all the neighbors being friends and helping each other as BIRTHS Good Shepherd Medical Center, Hermiston JULY 17, 2018 ALSUP — Beverly M. Martin-Alsup and Kyle L.

Bea was the abso- lute ultimate host- ess. She could take a few leftovers and turn them into a feast enough to feed an army. She was an exceptional home- maker and cook. The house always smelled so good when you walked in. The scent of decadent Norwegian-Italian cui- sine, pastries, cookies and rolls would permeate the air sending messages to the taste buds. You knew you were in for a huge treat. Always generous and giv- ing, Bea never let you leave empty-handed. As one of the granddaughters said, “Grandma was the great nurturer of our family, she had a kind heart and deep concern for others. Her love for her family and her beau- tiful devotion to Grandpa were just a few of the many important lessons she taught me about life.” Her Christian roots were evi- dent in all that she did. Committed to the com- munity, Bea was active in many organizations over the years including Morrow County Extension Group, Pollyanna’s, Oregon Wheat Growers Association, Mor- row County Grain Growers, McNary Yacht Club charter member and longtime mem- ber of the Lutheran Church. Her hobbies included craft- ing, sewing, puzzles, read- ing, crocheting, fishing, hunting and boating. Bea lit up whenever friends and family would visit; the hos- pitality was abounding no matter who walked into the room. She absolutely cher- ished time with her family and supported the numer- ous activities of her chil- dren and grandchildren. She is survived her daughters Karla Ander- son (Doug), Sheila Cozad (Bob) and Patty Matheny, son John H. Luciani (Karen), 10 grandchildren, 22 great-grandchildren, and numerous nieces and nephews. Bea was proceeded in death by her parents, hus- band George of 72 years, brother Vern Haugen, beloved niece Pam Haugen Fishman, and son-in-law David Matheny.
