Best genealogy moment
When I found my Hall family. My mom divorced my father when I was two and remarried when I was three. My stepfather wouldn't let my sister and I have any contact with my father's family. In 2003 I found my Hall family but it was too late by then. I have just recently as of today talked to the granddaughter of my father's sister. She was as excited as I was. I can't wait to meet my cousins. Hopefully soon.
Oliver Wesley Huckeba, 84, passed away Thursday, Jan. 14, 2010, in The Dalles, Ore. He was the eldest of 10 children born to their parents, Oliver Wesley Huckeba and the former Olivia Bryant, in Los Angeles, Calif., on Oct. 27, 1925. His nine siblings survive. His plan was to live in The Dalles at the Oregon Veterans Home. Oliver was honorably discharged from the U.S. Navy after World War II. Shortly after arriving at the home he "reported for heavenly duty" that same day. Oliver is also survived by his children and families, Dennis and Rachel Huckeba and their children; Chris and Lorraine and Lorraine's daughter, Adrienne; Steven and Karne Huckeba and their children, Randy, Stephanie and Ty, and their children Jena and Xander; Michelle Neidig and her children, Alyssa and Nick Cummings and their children, Abigail and Tyler; Craig Niedig; Felicia Thorton; and Kevin Thorton. A Celebration of Life Service will be held 11 a.m. Monday, Jan. 18, 2010, in Davenport's Chapel of the Good Shepherd with Bill Davenport officiating. Full military honors will be provided by Pelican Post No. 1383, VFW and volunteers from the Marine Corps League. Final resting place will be at the Bonanza Memorial Park Cemetery. Davenport's Chapel of the Good Shepherd, directors is in charge of the arrangements. Published in Herald And News on January 17, 2010
My father-in-law, Oliver Wesley Huckeba, Jr., born October 27, 1925, passed away yesterday, January 14, 2010, in Oregon. My husband is beside himself with grief. Since we live in Alabama, he can't make it to Oregon for the funeral. His brother is taking care of all the arrangements and will have him cremated sometime today and later have his ashes buried next to their mother. I feel so bad for my husband. The last time he saw his father was in 2005 when he went to Oregon to visit him after he had a stroke. He told me then that that would probably be the last time he saw his father.
