Monday, December 12, 2016S.E. Funeral Homes suit, the company spent about $37 million building funeral homes, chapels, mausoleums and administrative offices on leased land at All Souls Cemetery in Long Beach, Calvary Catholic Cemetery in East Los Angeles, Holy Cross Cemetery in Culver City, Queen of Heaven Cemetery in Rowland Heights, San Fernando Mission Cemetery in Mission Hills and Santa Clara Cemetery in Oxnard.In September 1997, the archdiocese and S.E. Funeral Homes agreed to let the plaintiffs lease land for 40 years to operate chapels and funeral homes at the six cemeteries from January 1998 until December 2038, the S.E. Funeral Homes suit states.In September 2014, the archdiocese notified the funeral home company that it was breaking the leases with the reverse merger transaction, according to the S.E. Funeral Homes complaint. Archdiocese attorney Stephen Alexander said previously that the plaintiffs, not his clients, breached the contract.Advertisement“We believe our consent was required for a change in control,” Alexander said previously. “This was a very specific written contract negotiated by the parties.”S.E. Funeral Homes maintained that no such consent was needed if there was an ownership change.“The archdiocese’s claim that (S.E. Funeral Homes) needed the archdiocese’s permission is ridiculous, a fiction much like one a greedy landlord designs to cast out a good tenant in order to raise the rent or to put pressure on a lucrative business deal to sweeten the lease’s financial terms,” its suit alleged.

She was born on Wednesday November 16, 1932 to the late Claude and Hazel Wilder in Jonesville, Virginia. She was a loving and devoted wife, mother, grandmother, and great grandmother who focused her life on her family and loved ones.She loved to help as evident by her many years of teaching the three and four year old Sunday school classes and Vacation Bible School at Asbury United Methodist Church. When she was not volunteering her time in church she volunteered for the American Cancer Society, Leukemia Society, and Mothers March of Dimes. Amy was always thinking of others and believed in helping anyone she could.Her vibrant friendly smile could brighten anyone’s day. She was able to strike conversation with just about anybody just by smiling and saying a friendly hello. If that didn’t work she would always have a stick of gum or piece of candy in her purse to offer them, and that surely put a smile on their face. She especially enjoyed cooking and celebrating for the holidays and Sunday dinners. There was nothing Amy would not do for her family and friends. Amy was the oldest of el...

Dave was stationed at a U.S. Air Force base and he and Lynn were married in 1955. They left for the U.S., living in the Pacific Northwest to start their family, which would include four children. They spent a good portion of their first years in Portland and then in Seaside, where they owned and operated a motel on the Promenade for several years.Moving to southern California, Dave started his own construction business, where he did custom remodeling and Lynn assisted the owners with the interior décor. They were a great team. Eventually settling in Stayton, they decided to work with Baptist Missions. For five years they traveled the west, living in their fifth wheel RV and hauling a tool trailer to build and remodel churches.Their next adventure took them to Michigan to live for a few years, then on to Oxnard, California, before returning to Oregon. Dave and Lynn started a bed and breakfast in Sublimity called “Our Place in the Country,” where Dave completely remodeled the 1912 farmhouse and Lynn designed the entire interior. It was hard work, but they truly loved it, and guests always enjoyed their stay with them.Lynn was an avid student of the Bible and a gifted speaker, speaking at many women’s church retreats and functions. She had the gift of hospitality and enjoyed making people feel welcome and at home. Lynn’s smile could light up a room and she was always the best “test audience” for Dave’s jokes. She also en...
