She was born January 11, 1907 at Roseburg, Ore. She was the great granddaughter of Mr. and Mrs. Daniel White Gardner who settled on their donation land claim on the Lewis River in 1853. Evelyn’s grandmother, Mary Gardner Luelling-Oleson, inherited a portion of the Gardner land claim and made it her summer home, calling it Glen Arbor. Evelyn in turn inherited Glen Arbor from her grandmother and with her husband, R.L. Clark, whom she married in 1940, developed it into the present beauty spot. Her failing health made it impossible to spend their weekends at Glen Arbor the past few months as they had done for years. The Clark’s have been host to the Gardner reunion ever since her grandmother’s aunt Mary Oleson, passed away in 1938. Evelyn was a member of the Waukomah Trail Chapter of the DAR in Woodland. She leaves, besides her husband R.L. Clark, a brother Kenneth Younger and a sister Doris Roff. Her paternal grandfather, Albert Luelling, was the son of Seth Luelling and crossed the plains as a boy with his father and uncle with the famous wagon load of fruit trees and flower plants to establish a nursery at Milwaukie, Ore.
