Peter Oscar Kaasen married Lana May and adopted her daughter, Marjorie.

Peter was the 8th of 11 children born to Simen Alveson Kaasen. Simen's first wife, Kari Kveberg, died with the birth of their twins in 1897; and Simen remarried in 1898 to Berit Bougan. Kari was my g.grandmother's first cousin, and they emigrated from Norway close to the same time. Simen, Kari and Berit were all from the Alvdal area of Hedmark, Norway.

Marjorie married Magnar Lervick in 1940. They had three children.

Suggested edit: Marjorie Lervick was born July 10, 1915 and died January 5th at 95 years old, with her family by her side. She had a blessed and fulfilled life. She was born in Little Rock, Arkansas, the daughter of Lana and Peter Kaasen. She was raised in Everett and graduated from Everett High School in 1934. She met Magnar Lervick in 1938 on the ski train to Mt. Baker. They were married in 1940; shortly after, they moved to Lake Whatcom where they began raising their family. In 1950 they moved to Snohomish and lived there for 40 years. Marjorie had many passions and hobbies and she found ways to enjoy them throughout her life. For many years she enjoyed golfing. Up until she passed away she watched golf on television, scrutinizing each and every club choice and the attire of the golfers who made it. She also studied flower arranging and enjoyed painting these creations. Marjorie and Mag enjoyed Hawaii and spent many winters enjoying the beach and sunsets on Maui. Marjorie was a truly remarkable person. She didn't attempt to accomplish things that were grandiose to the outside observer; rather, she focused on the simple things: family, love and laughter. Because she truly understood what was important in life she was able to instill these values in her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren. With her baking, for example, she sought to teach her children and grandchildren to make Spritz that could glide out of the cookie gun and pie crust that flaked with a fork. For her it wasn't a means of self-expression, but a way to bring family together. Likewise, her vegetable garden was an extension of her home and she cared for it like everything that was special to her. She loved sitting on her patio with children and grandchildren sharing her freshly cut vegetables. She also understood that importance of an education and supported her grandchildren through college and graduate work. In her mind, family and love were synonymous with laughter. When she would laugh or "get the giggles" as she called it, it was rare to find anyone who could resist the urge to join in. Marjorie's children valued her companionship and the opportunity to care for her until she passed away. The family is also immensely grateful to Marjorie's companion Sally Saunders. Marjorie will be missed and cherished forever. From this day forward every tray of Spritz and every apple pie that leaves the oven will be marked by our special lady. Marjorie is survived by her children: Marilana (Ed) Rubatino of Everett, Marcia Watson of Hollywood, California and Mark (Patty) Lervick of Stanwood; six grandchildren: Lisa (Mark) Caputo, Kristin (Stephen) Smith, Matthew (Kelsey) Sweeney, Lana Lervick (Bob Young), Cally Lervick and Kurt Lervick; and six great-grandchildren: Jackson Caputo, Mackenzie Caputo, Katrina Caputo, Logan Smith, Samantha Smith and Tucker Smith.
