In the early 1950's Ellen and Victor moved to the Dallas, Oregon area. Ellen had a variety of work experiences in her lifetime, including positions with Guys Hardware in Dallas, Oregon and as a knitting instructor at Meier and Frank in Salem. She was an avid horsewoman, and along with her husband belonged to the Multnomah County and Washington County Mounted Posse and participated in many horse shows in her younger years. She was an expert seamstress and tailor with a closet full of clothes and "designs by Ellen". She was a member of Pythian Sisters and Fraternal Order of Eagles and loved dancing, enjoying everything from square and round dancing to ballroom and western swing. Ellen loved to travel, returning to Denmark and Germany several times for visits to relatives, traveling throughout the United States, Canada and Mexico with her first husband and going on several cruises with her second husband.
Preceding her in passing were her sister Amy, her brother Feldborg "Ray", her first husband Victor H. Jones and her second husband Lawrence G. Heer. She is survived by her three children and their spouses, nine grandchildren, along with several great and great-great-grandchildren.
