Mayer,
Minnesota Birth certid# 1901-32183
Date of Birth: 02/13/1901
County of Birth: Hennepin
Mother Maiden Name: Walborg
His father is shown as 50 years old on his birth certificate.
He was the informant for his unnamed son’s death certificate. At that time, he and “Thrisa” lived at 3522 Humboldt Avenue North in Minneapolis.
In the 1930 census, he may be the Thomas Maier, insurance salesman, lodging with a family in Minneapolis. He is married but no wife is shown. He had been married 7 years earlier. That Thomas’s father is shown as born in Minnesota, however.
In the 1940 census, he was one of four lodgers living in the household of Louise Sopousek of Cedar Rapids, Iowa. He is a painter with a wholesale packing house. One of the other lodgers is an insurance salesman so it’s possible that there was some confusion over who did what.

Although Burt and Bee had no children, they welcomed generations of friends, relatives and children into their home, entertaining on the organ and saxophone, always sharing wonderful home-cooked meals including her famous potato salad, baked beans, and German kuchen.

She worked at Sears and also a small appliance store.
On October 5, 1944, she married Walter Haas in San Diego. Wally was in the Navy and one month later he shipped out to the South Pacific until November 1945. When he returned they set up residence in Long Beach.
After her husband Wally retired from the California Highway Patrol they traveled quite a bit - buying, repairing and selling antiques. She had a large collection of glass pitchers, plates and Hummel figurines. In 1980 Wally and LeVonne and two of their friends - who were antique dealers - went to England, Scotland and Ireland and bought a large container of antiques and sent them home. They fixed them up and sold them. They made many buying trips across the country from California to Maine.
LeVonne loved music and liked to watch old DVD's of musical comedies. She loved to play the piano. She has always been a caretaker and never failed to offer something to eat and drink to any visitor to her home. LeVonne enjoyed being with her family and fortunately they all live close and she was able to see them on all occasions. She was very active in her church and very strong in her faith.
LeVonne is survived by her husband of 69 years, Wally; her two children, Patricia M. Ramskill (husband - Stan) of Garden Grove and Paul James Haas (wife - Bunnie) of Anaheim. Paul is a retired Anaheim Police Sergeant. She is also survived by six grandchildren, ten great-grandchildren and one great-great-grandchild.
The family would like to thank the staff at Emeritus at Fairwood Manor in Anaheim for the wonderful loving care given to LeVonne for the past 2 1/2 years.
A viewing will be held Thursday, October 24, 2013 from 6pm - 8pm at Memory Garden Memorial Park, 455 W. Central, Brea, Ca 92821.

58. | Marjorie Kathleen WOODROFFE (15.Lucille3, 2.Walberga2, 1.Steven1) was born on 19 Dec 1922 in Hennepin County, Minnesota; died on 27 Apr 2019 in Minnesota. Other Events and Attributes:
- Minnesota Birth Certificate: 1922-50430
Notes:
Her birth certificate was indexed as Woodruffe.
Jonak, Marjorie K. (Woodroffe) Our beloved mother, grandmother and great-grandmother, age 96, passed away on April 27 in the presence of her children and other family members. She was preceded in death by her husband, Edward S. Jonak. She will be dearly missed by son Michael (Roya), daughters Marianne Halling (Chris) and Molly Riddle (Chris), grandchildren Charlie, Joe, Emily, John, Mina, Eric, Eddie, Helen and Marin, and great-grandchildren Aidan, Lily and Ella. Marge, as everyone knew her, was born in Minneapolis in December 1922 to William (Bill) and Lucille Woodroffe. Although Marge grew up an only child, her mother was one of 17 children, so there were plenty of cousins with whom she established life-long relationships. During the early years of Marge's childhood, Marge's father purchased Northland Lodge, a resort on the shores of Big Winny in northern Minnesota. In the fall of 1935, Bill was diagnosed with cancer, and he passed away on November 25, 1935. As Marge remembered, her mother "decided it was sink or swim," took out a loan against their house in Minneapolis, and invested the proceeds in the resort. Marge stayed with family in Minneapolis during the school year, and joined Lucille at the resort every summer. Marge earned her keep cleaning cabins (and fish), waiting tables, carrying water from the well, hauling wood and doing whatever other chores needed to be done to make the resort a success. In 1938, Marge registered as a freshman at St. Margaret's Academy, where she made numerous life-long friendships. She graduated from St. Margaret's in June of 1941, and headed back up north with Lucille. In the winter of 1944, Lucille was diagnosed with cancer. The decision was made to sell Northland Lodge, and the sale was completed in the spring of 1945. Lucille and Marge returned to their home in Minneapolis, where Lucille passed away in December 1945. Marge found a job at Multigraph Corporation, which led to an even better job at Honeywell, where she worked for nine yearsand met the man who would later become her husband & our father/grandfather, Ed Jonak. Marge and Ed were married in February 1954. In June 1955, Marge and Ed moved into the "dream home" they had designed and built on Peninsula Road in Medicine Lake. In February 1959, they were visited at their home by prospective adoptees Michael (then 3 1/2 years old) and Marianne (18 months old). As Marge recalled: "On February 17, [the social worker] called and asked how we felt about the children, and after our comments she announced they would bring them to the house with their belongings on the following day." But that was only the beginning: In the spring of 1962, Marge was happily surprised to find herself pregnant. In the fall of 1962, the family was blessed with the arrival of our "little sister," Molly. Shortly before Molly's birth, the family had moved to their new home in Fridley, where all three children grew up. Marge was a "stay-at-home Mom," which was a wonderful thing for her children. In addition to keeping a beautiful house, cooking, cleaning, etc., she was able to spend some quiet time enjoying her favorite hobbies, painting and photography. Marge was an accomplished artist, and later branched out into other media, including stained glass and wood carving. She was also an aspiring musician, and gained proficiency on everything from the banjo to the guitar to the old Hammond organ. Sadly, Ed was diagnosed with cancer in early 1986, and died that June. After a few years, Marge moved to a comfortable townhome in Coon Rapids, where she lived until her passing. She missed Ed dearly, but found ways to stay active and engaged. One of her great passions was golf. She became a long-term member at Bunker Hills golf course in Coon Rapids, and enjoyed many rounds (of golf that is) with her friends in the Bunker Hills Ladies League. She also continued to create artistically, and to enjoy and encourage her children and grandchildren (and, eventually, great-grandchildren). As time passed, she nurtured friendships from as far back as her childhood, in addition to providing her kids (and their kids) with boundless love and affection. (Marge wanted us to mention that she truly was a "people person" who loved and was loved by friends and family.) We all have such happy memories of holidays spent together at Marge's house, and the traditions that were created and continued over so many years. All of you reading this who knew her will smile in recalling the seemingly endless energy and generosity that she brought to whatever task was at hand. She was a good and faithful friend, a wonderful mother, a creative, joyful and loving individual, and the epitome of the can-do spirit of the "Greatest Generation." She was also a devout Catholic, and as she began to approach the end of her life, she often expressed the joy she felt in being reunited with her mother and father, her husband, and so many dear relatives and friends. We will all miss her terribly, but we also take comfort in the example she set of how to live life to its fullest, to face adversity with determination, and to keep friends and family close in our hearts. We want to extend special thanks to the staff at J.A. Wedum Residential Hospice in Brooklyn Park (and in particular to "favorite" nurses" Anne and Meta) for their kindness and caring, and to Angie and Dave Nelson, who did so much for Marge during their fourteen years as neighbors and friends. Visitation will be held from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m. on Thursday, May 2 at Billman-Hunt Funeral Chapel, 2701 Central Avenue NE, Minneapolis, with Celebration of Life at 6:00. Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated on Friday, May 3 at 10:00 a.m. at Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church in northeast Minneapolis. Private interment at Fort Snelling National Cemetery.
