Notes:
Yakima Herald-Republic (WA) - December 10, 2006
YAKIMA - Verile R. Olden of Yakima, Washington passed away suddenly
at Yakima Valley Memorial Hospital on Tuesday, December 5, 2006.
"Dutch", as he was known to family and friends, was born January 5,
1931 in Toppenish, Washington to Harold and Laverne "Tuddy" Olden.
He grew up on the family homestead, farming and ranching cattle in the
Toppenish area, and graduated from Toppenish High School in 1949, where
he was president of the FFA chapter. Dutch joined the United States
Marine Corps in the fall of 1949, received training at Camp Lejeune as
an Operating Engineer, and served in Korea during the Korean War. He
was decorated for wounds received as a combat veteran and for heroism
rescuing a downed South Korean pilot. Following initial medical
treatment in Japan, he was reassigned to the El Toro Marine Air Station
for recuperation, where he met the love of his life, his wife of 54
years, Mary Ellen Sheppard Olden, also a United States Marine Corps
Sergeant. They were married in Las Vegas on July 23, 1952. Following
discharge from the Marine Corps, Dutch and MaryEllen moved to the
Toppenish area, and started their family. Children Carol, Carl, and
Craig soon followed. Along with a career operating and repairing heavy
equipment, and performing underwater welding with the Wapato Irrigation
Project from 1953 to 1965, Dutch helped with the family ranch in the
Toppenish area, and all the neighbors enjoyed his help with their
cattle herds. In 1965 he helped with the initial construction of the
Fort Simcoe Job Corps Center, and became one of the first vocational
instructors there, teaching heavy equipment operation and repair, auto
mechanics, and welding over the course of his career. Dutch was well
known for his heavy equipment operating skills, and was frequently
called on for his expertise in fighting forest and range fires
throughout the Northwest. Dutch enjoyed coaching the Fort Simcoe Eagles
football, baseball and wrestling teams, and taking his family on
waterskiing outings with his Job Corps students during the summers.
Dutch became Deputy Director of the Fort Simcoe Job Corps Center in
1980, a position he held until his retirement on March 29, 1986 after
more than 39 years of government service. Dutch received many awards
and recognition during his years of exemplary service with the Wapato
Irrigation Project and with the Fort Simcoe Job Corps Center.
Following retirement, Dutch and MaryEllen made their home in Yakima,
and enjoyed the opportunity to be involved in family activities with
their grandchildren. Dutch became a volunteer at Hoover Elementary
School, mentoring students in reading and math skills, and was publicly
recognized for his involvement in the Washington Reading Corps. Always
handy with tools, Dutch enjoyed remodeling and tinkering, and had a
wonderful flower and vegetable garden. His green thumb kept the entire
family and most of the neighborhood in vegetables every summer. A
man of
many talents, Dutch was an accomplished chef and everyone enjoyed the
treats he created at the stove, on the barbecue, and in the smoker.
Dutch enjoyed trout fishing with MaryEllen at his favorite childhood
fishing sites. An enrolled member of the Yakama Nation, Dutch
particularly enjoyed fishing at Mount Adams Lake. A traditional family
outing involved being the first to fish Howard Lake every season, and
the family returned there in the late summer for huckleberry season.
Although he never seemed to have time to play during his work career,
Dutch started playing golf during his rehabilitation following his war
injuries, and was instrumental in designing and building the golf
course at the El Toro Marine Air Station. On rare occasion, he could be
convinced to play golf in a tournament of government employees, and
would surprise us all by winning. He renewed his interest in golf
during retirement, and enjoyed playing with MaryEllen and his sons and
grandsons. One quickly learned never to bet with Dutch. Dutch
particularly enjoyed traveling with MaryEllen to all of the sporting
events, music performances and drama activities involving their
grandchildren. Dutch is survived by his wife of 54 years, MaryEllen,
and by his three children and their families: his son Craig and his
wife Lisa Heman Olden and their son Hunter of Yakima; his son Carl and
his wife Susan Dahlin Olden and their children Kenneth, David, Timothy
and Rebekah, also of Yakima; and by his daughter Carol of Long Beach,
Washington, Carol's daughter Maria (Didi) McCoy and husband Chris of
Seattle, Carol's son Kolden Gopher and great-grandsons Giovanni and
Kaleo Gopher of Toppenish. Dutch is also survived by sisters Carmella
Clements of Toppenish and Dolores Blaine of Yakima; sister-in-law
Elizabeth Gehrke and her husband Edward of Coshocton, Ohio; aunts Viola
O'Neil of Yakima, Velma Phillips of Toppenish, and LaVilla Ramsey of
White Swan; uncle John Rentschler of Toppenish; numerous cousins,
nieces, nephews and the uncountable friends he made during his 75
years. Dutch was preceded in death by his parents, Harold and LaVerne
"Tuddy" Olden, and his step-father Mark Bybee. Merritt Funeral Home is
in charge of cremation and memorial arrangements, with a Celebration of
Dutch's Life to be held at 1:00pm Friday, December 15th at Merritt
Funeral Home in Wapato. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests a
donation to the Yakima Valley Memorial Hospital Foundation, for Heart
Disease Prevention programs, or to the donor's favorite charity.

on the online roster for B Co 24th Infantry, nor could I find that
he ever filed for pension. I also paged through the 24th Mo Roster
on cwss and couldn't find any variant of Minear
Is this George Minear related to Joseph Savennear Minear?
