        Narrative History:
        Oleta was educated at Flora High School in Flora, Oregon. Along with being a farm wife and young mother, she also taught school. She rode horseback with the three oldest children to teach her students. Her married life was spent working along side Ira dairying, raising a garden, canning fruits and vegetables, cooking, cleaning & all the multitude of chores associated with each. She also did a lot of sewing making clothes & creating quilts that were given to her grandchildren. Because of the hardships of of raising ten children during the 1930's depression, out on homesteaded ground, nothing went to waste in creating gifts for her family & decorations around her home. Died at her Lyle Gulch home of heart failure. She commented she was tired while tending her garden and went in the house to lay down. She passed away in her sleep.
