Olaf Ofstad
OFSTAD, Olaf
1907-2008

A resident of Portland and native of Minnesota, Olaf Ofstad, age 101, died peacefully in his sleep of age-related causes at 1:45 a.m. on Dec. 22, 2008, at his residence, Holladay Park Plaza.

He was born in Minneapolis on Nov. 15, 1907, to the union of John Ofstad and Ellen Ofstad Olsen. A World War II veteran, he served in the U.S. Army Air Corps in Guam. He retired in 1972 after nearly 30 years as an aircraft electrical mechanic for Northwest Airlines. He was active in Retired Senior Volunteer Programs (RSVP) in Boulder, Colo., and in Baton Rouge, La. He moved to Portland in 1988, where he was active in theatrical productions at Holladay Park Plaza. A "21st Century Norwegian Viking," he and his wife traveled worldwide, sharing adventures through video productions. He was a creative story-teller, endearing him to many.

Left to cherish his memory are his wife, Evelyn Larsen Boyl Ofstad of Portland; his daughters and spouses, Elizabeth and Tom Morgan of Addison, Maine, and Cynthia and Perry Prestholdt of Baton Rouge, La.; children by marriage and spouses, Katy and Jim Neill, Shannon and Garrett Damitz; Bob and Janie Boyl, all of Portland; and Brian and Krystina Boyl of Los Angeles. His 11 grandchildren and their spouses include Catherine and Kent Ibanez of Austin, Texas; Jennifer Prestholdt and Charles Weed of Minneapolis; Jeremy Prestholdt and fiancée Nicole Martins of San Diego; and Alexandré Risch and Michael Anderson of Gaithersburg, Md.; Bradley, Jana and Molly Boyl, Geoff and Crystal Neill, and Shannon Stringham, all of Portland; Erin and Eric Liddell of San Diego; and Michael and Stephanie Stringham of Crawfordsville, Ind. His nine great-grandchildren include Lilyana, Cole, Tessa and Rowen Ibanez; Katy and Owen Liddell; Eliza, Sevrin, and Simon Weed. He was preceded in death by his parents; his first wife, Lillian Ofstad; his sisters, Mabel Hartel, Bertha Kirschner and Marie Swisher; and a brother, Harold Ofstad.

His joie de vivre and good humor will be missed.

A celebration of life for family and friends will be held from 2 to 4 p.m. Monday, Jan. 12, 2009 in the Penthouse of Holladay Park Plaza, 1300 N.E. 16th Ave., Portland, OR 97232. His family expresses heartfelt gratitude for the loving care by the Health Care Center staff of Holladay Park Plaza.

Hei Gaute!

Tusen takk for verdifull hjelp!
Kanskje du kan ta flere også?
Jeg holder på med å samle stoff om utvandringa fra Geitastrand.
