April 1, 1908 - Feb. 20, 2006
Pearl H. Strouts, 97, of Sweet Home went to be with the Lord Feb. 20.
Her parents were Samual R. and Louisa (Spring) Nothiger.
Pearl was a full-blooded Swiss. She was born, raised and died in the same house. She didn't leave Sweet Home much. She had been to Hood River, Washington, the coast and to live with her sister, Julia, in Portland for a short time.
She married George Strouts in January 1939.
She loved to knit and crochet during her "fun time." Her work time consisted of hauling rocks from the garden place and taking care of as many as 80 rose bushes. She loved to take flowers to the church. The Nothiger family had always been involved with the Evangelical Church.
Pearl had cultivated land with a horse, which didn't work very well. She also helped can the things they grew in the garden. She helped take care of her bedridden grandma for seven years. Then she took care of her mother and father and later her husband, George. She was a busy, caring, compassionate and generous person.
She never had children. Surviving is cousin Margaret Morse of Newberg; and nieces and nephews Mardy and Tom Hufford, Don and Charlotte Graber, Byrdene Brown, Edith Crocket, Daryl Nothiger, Carol and Lynn May, Louise Jane and Robert Long; great-niece Diane Lucky and other great-nieces and great-nephews.
Services were held Saturday at the Sweet Home Evangelical Church. Workman & Steckly Funeral Chapel handled arrangements (www.WorkmanSteckly.com).
