All, Linncounty ORGenweb site is experiencing temporary difficulties -- a problem with the website that I will take care of ASAP. Looks like something is wrong with the domain name. I'll let you know as soon as it is resolved. Thanks, Lisa L. Jones

The middle part which is kind of like an island in the middle of traffic is the Waverly Memorial Cemetery. I know because my ancestors are buried there and I had to take a look around and figure out the same questions you are having! I hope you find what you need but if you have questions that I can help you with, I will be happy to chat with you. Alison

My mother didn't graduate from Albany High. Bill Stewart > > Do you know the year did your Mother graduated from Albany HS? CRR > Charlie Roberts

Charlie, what an absolute delight to see you pop on on the orlinn list today!!! It has been such a long time since I chatted with you. How are you doing? You were experiencing health issues the last time we chatted, I sincerely hope those are resolved now. I am having a hard time getting to genealogy these days. The last few years have been fraught with episodes that have kept me from focussing on it. It's been two years since my mother died, and a year since since my sister died, but it stills seems like I don't have my equilibrium back. I have high hopes that this coming fall and winter I'll dig in, get all my genie stuff unpacked (several moves involved these few years as well) and get to work again. I won't go on for now, just wanted to say hello!

Author: marysday Surnames: Sorte, Rucker, Cordle, Swanson, Classification: obituary Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/localities.northam.usa.states.oregon.counties.linn/1483/mb.ashx Message Board Post: Curtis Bruce Sorte Curtis Bruce Sorte, 80, of Albany, formerly of Lincoln County, died Aug. 5, 2007 at his home of lung cancer. He was born July 5, 1927 in Flaxville, Mont., to Montana homesteaders Bernice and Marvin Sorte, the eldest of four boys. He spent most of his childhood in Scobey, Mont. He enlisted in the U.S. Navy during World War II and was trained as a radio operator. After the war, he used the GI Bill to enroll in Montana State University, where he met Mary Jean Rucker from Plentywood. Mary Jean and Curtis were married on Dec. 26, 1949. They moved to Eugene where he enrolled at the University of Oregon in pre-dental studies; he graduated in 1952 and was accepted in the school of dentistry at the University of Minnesota. In 1956, he received his Doctor of Dental Surgery degree. His first dental practice was in Echo, Minn. He purchased a practice in Albany in 1958, and moved the family west. He was an active member of the Junior Chamber of Commerce and particularly liked working with the Timber Carnival. He stayed well informed on current events, read a number of papers each day, and often submitted ideas to local officials. He gave several talks around the region and campaigned successfully for the addition of fluoride to the local water supplies so all children could benefit from it. He and members of the Ocean Shores Conservation Coalition were successful in securing the preservation of the wetlands in Newport located south of the Yaquina Bay Bridge adjacent to South Beach State Park. Friends and family remember he always treated people "without regard to their financial circumstances, beliefs or station in life; and believed that every person, at least deep down inside, knew what was right." He loved his dog, "Cookie." He was preceded in death by two brothers, Jim and Jerry. Survivors include his wife, Mary Jean; children Bruce Sorte of Corvallis, Sue Cordle of Philomath, Jim Sorte of Issaquah, Wash., and Julie Swanson, Tina Sorte and Curt Sorte, all of Albany; a brother, Don of Great Falls, Mont.; 17 grandchildren; and nine great-grandchildren. A family service was held. The family suggests memorial contributions to Oregon Shores Conservation Coalition, SafeHaven Humane Society, or Downtown Carnegie Library fund in care of Fisher Funeral Home, 306 SW Washington, Albany, Ore. 97321 (www.fisherfuneralhome.com).
