Mr. Geaney died Jan. 12, 1968. Mrs. Geaney was known for her deep interest in young people of the Tulelake community, for her excellence in gardening, especially flowers, and in the early history of the Tulelake Basin where she accumulated numerous Indian artifacts. She was a member of the Merrill Women of the Moose. Survivors are a sister, Mrs. Alice Wohlschegel and a niece, Clarrisa Wohlschegel of Renton, Washington. Headstone has Lillian M. Daniel Geaney was married to Mrs. Lillian (Burlingame) Caldwell on November 8, 1935, in Reno, Nevada, the bride being a native of Newberg, Oregon, born February 26, 1897, to Walter and Elizabeth (Vanderpool) Burlingame. Her father was born in Vancouver, Washington, in 1867, and passed away in 1939 at his home near St. Helens, Oregon. Her mother is a native of Gaston, Oregon, born in 1869. She reared six children and is now residing in Vancouver. Mrs. Daniel Geaney is the former owner of Lillian's Caf'e9 at Tulelake which she operated for five years following her arrival on September 5, 1931. She was the fifth woman to settle in the town and the first woman to operate a restaurant there, as well as to have a Neon sign. She has one son by a former marriage to Ray Caldwell, who died in Portland, Oregon, July 23, 1926: Lloyd Caldwell. He was born in Vancouver in 1917, and is now a Sergeant in the United States Marine Corps which is stationed in Honolulu. Mr. Caldwell is the leader in a Glee Club in his company. Mrs. Geaney has a keen interest in the welfare of the youth of her community which has inspired many picnics and social gatherings and she has charge of all these affairs for the Tulelake Grange, of which she is chairman of the Home Economics Unit. Her absorbing hobby of flower culture is beautifully expressed in the flower gardens at the Geaney Ranch, where over five hundred different varieties of flowers and shrubs grace the landscape. Mrs. Geaney is a member of the Tulelake Garden Club and an ardent booster of its projects, and she is chairman of the Tulelake Red Cross Chapter. She has served on the election board for eight years and is a worker in various projects. A Protestant by faith, Mrs. Geaney with three sisters sang in the choir in the First Christian Church of Vancouver, which she led for several years. While working in the Multnomah Hotel in Portland, Oregon, she sang and whistled over both KGW and KOIN. Concentrating their efforts upon their business affairs, and the energy and determination they have shown in this connection, has brought a success to Mr. and Mrs. Daniel Geaney that has placed them in a creditable position among the substantial residents of the Tulelake community, all within a short period of nine years.
