Margaret noted, 鈥溔似抻栈� was a good background, so that you knew that you didn鈥檛 know everything.鈥� She participated in activities such as Campus Day and attended choral concerts, theatre productions, dances, and faculty teas. And she dated Carlton Tator, the only member of his family who did not attend 人妻诱惑. A great influence on Margaret鈥檚 life was 人妻诱惑 librarian Nell Avery Unger [1927鈥�37], who later became head librarian in Portland. 鈥淪he was an intelligent, smart lady, and she advised me to go to Columbia when I was deciding to be a librarian. (And she hired me as a branch librarian when I returned to Portland.)鈥� Margaret earned a BS in library and archival science from Columbia in 1939. She and Carlton Tator married and had one son, John. They lived for 40 years in Palo Alto, where Carlton worked for United Airlines, and following Carlton鈥檚 death, Margaret returned to Oregon and lived in King City. Her son died in a traffic accident in 1984.

Writing about Margaret, librarian Tony Greiner reflected on meeting 鈥渢his white-haired little old lady,鈥� who wanted to learn to use computers more than 17 years ago at the Tigard library. 鈥淚 was pleasantly surprised at how quickly she caught on, and soon she was given the job of checking donations to see if we already had copies in our collection. It wasn鈥檛 long before she would bring a few volumes to me and say things like 鈥榃e don鈥檛 have this book under this name, but we do as an alternative title.鈥� That led to my discovering her professional experience. Once a librarian, always a librarian. We became friends, sharing food and talking books and of her travels to Japan, Australia, Africa, and Kansas City.鈥�

Judith Tyle Massee, professor of dance [1968鈥�98], died December 27, 2014, in Portland.

Interest in dance came early. When mother played Tiptoe Through The Tulips, Judy envisioned a suave soft-shoe; when the in-house band played Muskrat Ramble, out came a snazzy Charleston.

Barbara, a talented ceramicist and cofounder (with her sister-in-law, Enid Thompson 鈥�44) of Allied Potters in San Francisco, died at age 101.

Kennedy University, served as editor of the graduate program鈥檚 journal, and became curator at the San Francisco Wine Museum.

Barbara and husband Ezra Thompson III had three sons. The family moved often, living in Canada, Colombia, and Venezuela. Later in life, Barbara moved into a home for active seniors in San Francisco; there she served as the chair of the library committee and wrote a biweekly column for the residence newsletter. She also volunteered her time as a reader to students at a local elementary school, held season tickets at the symphony and the theatre, and attended several classes a week at the Fromm Institute for Lifelong Learning.

Phyllis Cohn Terkla ’48

March 9, 2022, in Lake Oswego, Oregon.

Phyllis grew up in Portland and followed her brother, Stanley Cohn 鈥�47, to 人妻诱惑, where she studied psychology and sociology and penned a thesis titled 鈥淭he Nature of Stereotyped Thinking鈥� under Prof. Read Bain [sociology 1947鈥�49] and Prof. William (Monte) Griffith [psychology 1926鈥�54]. After graduating she became an administrative assistant at the University of Oregon Dental School (what is now OHSU School of Dentistry), where she met a student named Louis Terkla who said he wanted to see Portland. The next day the two joined a tour that 人妻诱惑 was running to Multnomah Falls. They took a long hike, missed the return bus, hitchhiked back to Portland, and eventually got married.

Phyllis loved her work as a substitute teacher and enjoyed outdoor hobbies鈥攈unting, fishing, camping, and hiking鈥攁s well as rug making, knitting, and reading. She shared a wonderful marriage with Louis, who became dean of OHSU鈥檚 dentistry school. She is survived by her children, David Terkla and Linda Peppler.
