Alfred J. Scrivner was born the son of Charley and Mary (Horn) Scrivner, on Tuesday, June 5, 1923 in Yale, Oklahoma.
Alfred grew up and attended schools in Oklahoma. On December 8, 1941 he married Reba Johnston in Clinton, Oklahoma. He joined the United States Air Force during WWII where he served in North Africa. After being honorably discharged Alfred moved to Memorial Wells, Texas and then on to Kelso, Washington where he went to work for Weyerhaeuser Lumber Company. He helped them set up new plants in Borneo, Australia and Valient, Oklahoma. Alfred retired after 40 years of working as a millwright. He loved raising his garden and tending to his beautiful yard. Alfred planted two beautiful redwood trees in his well kept yard. He also enjoyed canning fruits and vegetables. What he loved most was to use his master craftsman skills, which showed through the hard work of renovating an old farm house into a very nice home. For the last six years Alfred was a resident here in Newberg.
On Monday, December 12, 2011, Alfred J. Scrivner died at a local care facility when he was eighty-eight years, six months and seven days of age.
Surviving and left to honor his life are: His son Alfred J. (Jimmy) Scrivner, Jr.; his sister Geneva Coker; many nieces and nephews and those who have come to know and appreciate him where he has lived and worked. His wife Reba and his five brothers preceded him in death.
