Betty often told stories of the âRanchâ in Hardman. Bettyâs favorite memories were of her on a horse with her dad. Bettyâs was defiantly a daddyâs girl, which made it especially difficult for her when she lost her father when she was 16.

Audrey D. Keeland passed away to our Heavenly Father February 5, 2021, at Willamette Valley Medical Center in McMinnville, Oregon. Audrey was born May 21, 1930, in Sparta, Missouri. Raised in a household with nine brothers and sisters, she was known for standing up for herself and conversing with everyone. Audrey married Leonard Keeland in 1947, and they were happily married until his passing in 2003.
She was a cook at the Russel logging camp in Yamhill, where her husband logged and helped with the Tillamook Burn forest fire. They bought a fixer house near Carlton Lake for $10 in 1957. Although the house was washed out by the Christmas Flood of 1964, buying and rehabilitating the house was one of her favorite stories to tell.
