It was surrounded by stately poplar trees and in the distance rose the green, rolling Olympic Hills.

In the late 1930s, prior to the riding club being sold and divided into single family home lots, the suburbs were forming in the area and hill to the east from 21st to 27th St, from 135th to 140th Ave. NE was being subdivided and developed into an area advertised as Olympic Village.

He and his wife Rosella are buried at the Acacia Memorial Park which is north of Lake City.

Golfers still practice at the public course and there is a perimeter trail where neighbors can enjoy a bit of nature in this urban neighborhood.
