OBITUARY: Ina Mary Hubbard, Oct. 9, 1898-Feb. 13, 2004
Ina Mary Hubbard of Oregon City died Feb 13 at Rose Villa in Milwaukie. She was 105. She was born to McClellan and Cora Della Hubbard on her great-grandfather’s donation land claim in Smithfield, near Dallas. Her great-grandparents Absolam and Hilah Smith and David Hubbard were early Oregon Trail pioneers who settled on land grants in the Dallas area. A graduate of Bethel High School near Dallas, she went on to Oregon Agricultural College and attained her bachelor of science degree in Pharmacy in 1921. She lived most of her adult life in the Eugene and Springfield areas. She worked at Chase Gardens, Tiffany Drug Store, Jensen Pharmacy and Paramount Drug Store. After retirement she covered pharmacies in small towns so that their owners could go on vacation.
She was a longtime member of the Springfield First Baptist Church and was a member of the Oregon City First Baptist Church. She enjoyed the outdoors and was a keen observer of the details in nature. Identification of wildflowers and picking up interesting items on the beach showed her attention to little things. She liked walking on the beach, hiking, and drive s in the country. She participated in hikes with the Obsidians including a Three Sisters hike. She enjoyed visits to Victoria and Lake Louise in Canada. A highlight of her life was visiting Norway and Sweden with a friend. During her life she got around by walking, biking or by bus until she got her first driving license and car at age 60. She moved to Oregon City in 1990.
She was preceded in death by her sister, Verda Hubbard Chase, brother, Harry Hubbard and four siblings which died as young children. Survivors include her nieces, Jean Chase Robinson of Eugene, Betty Chase McBee and Patsy Chase Minter, both of Florence, Deirdre Chase Reynolds of Lincoln City and Janice Hubbard Gusmeroll of California.
Memorial services were held Feb 22 at Oregon City First Baptist Church and private burial was at the Brown Family Cemetery in Dallas. Contributions may be made to “Heifer Project”, First Baptist Church, 819 John Adams St, Oregon City, OR 97045. Bollman Funeral Home in Dallas handled the arrangements.
