Hi Jane, Thank you for posting this obit. Newton J. Hudelson is my grandfather. I am especially glad to know the name of the funeral home. Maybe I will be able to learn more from them if they are still in existence or if some other has their records. Do you know if Fortmiller is still in operation? We knew that he was supposed to be buried at Riverside but his name does not appear in the published list. I suspect that he has no stone. Do you have access to the actual newspaper clipping? If so, is there a possibility of getting a photocopy? Thanks again, Anne At 5:31 PM -0800 3/3/2001, Jane Hutchings wrote: >Lebanon Express >June 25, 1936 > >Newton H.
