Obituary: It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our much loved Husband, Daddy, Grampy, Great-Grampy, and Brother - Vernon G. Torkelson. Vernon was born in Bend, OR, 6, 1930, to Bert and Mary Torkelson. He passed away after a courageous battle against pneumonia surrounded by his family on May 17, 2013. He is survived by his Bride of 62-years - Betty; his children - Teresa, Tena with husband Craig, and Traci with husband Daniel; eight grandchildren; five great-grandchildren; two Brothers - Don and Richard; and one sister - Annie. Vernon was preceded in death by his parents; his brothers - Sid, Ligie, Clarence, and Vesper; his sister - Gladys; and daughter Toni.
Vernon provided for his family through courage and strength of character by overcoming severe dyslexia and an early hearing loss to achieve many outstanding awards in his chosen field of salesmanship at Macs Chemical, Valvoline Oil, and Ashland Oil . In his tenure, Vernon was awarded Representative of the Year and Outstanding Oil Sales for his division along with numerous other achievements and recognitions. Vernon flourished in the field of sales due to his exuberant personality, sharp wit, and the kind words he had for everyone he encountered. Many of Vernons customers were lifelong friends who trusted and respected him. There were no strangers in Vernons life as everyone he encountered was met with his beautiful smile and warmth of heart.
As a husband, Vernon was very loving and always introduced his wife as his Bride even after 62-years of marriage. As a Dad, Vernon taught his girls to be self-reliant and responsible. He was always there to encourage them to pursue their goals and was there to help anytime he was asked. As an inventor, Vernon intrigued family, friends, and, particularly, grandchildren with his many unique - and sometimes outrageous - creations born from his infamous garage.
Vernon G. Torkelson was greatly loved and will be sorely missed by many.

Obituary: Surround by his family, Robert L. Torkelson, (Bob) 83, went to join his wife in the presence of his Lord on , 7, 2012 in Yakima, WA. He was born May 30, 1929 in Seattle, WA to Peter and Hedevig Torkelson. Robert, a first generation born American citizen, and the youngest of 3 children, grew up in Lynnwood, (Alderwood Manner), WA. From age 7, Robert was raised by his widowed mother who taught him his Christian values, which he carried throughout his life.

Robert graduated from Edmonds High School in 1948. One of his first jobs was working for the Seattle Ice Co. He then served his country as a Navy Seabee during the Korean War in the Philippines. Returning to Seattle, he had several jobs, including welding in the shipyard, work for U.S. Plywood Co. and settling into a career as a carpenter for over 50 yrs., specializing as a quality finish-trim carpenter.

On Dec. 8, 1962, Robert married the love of his life, Mollie. His happiest years were spent raising 5 children in the rural farm area of Lake Stevens and tending a 1 ½ acre vegetable garden, raising enough to share with neighbors and friends.

In 1994, he moved to Selah, WA. Robert continued his passion for gardening and carpentry until he retired. Above all, he will be remembered for his kind heart and helpful spirit. He would do anything for anyone. His devotion to his wife and family will never be forgotten.

He is survived by his 5 children, Sharron (Jim), Joe (Donna), Colleen (Dave), Charlotte (Steve), Carl (Candi); 14 grandchildren and 18 great grandchildren. He was preceded in death by his wife of 45 yrs., Mollie, brother and sister.
