According to a recent obituary in The Oregonian, she was born during a period when social security and health insurance were nonexistent. In less than a year, the 1929 stock market crash would destroy banks, livelihoods, and, in certain situations, all hope. Our parents and grandparents were born in this Great America of 1928, and Trump and his supporters hope he can bring it back. For our children and grandchildren, The Oregonian will probably reprint this obituary verbatim in 100 years. Happy 2025 New Year.
