 Her burial: Ida is buried in the Calvary Cemetery in Douglas, Arizona, where she lay without a headstone until one was purchased for her by [[Charlotte Ann Quinlan]] and [[Giulio Laurenzo Ruffini]] in 2013.  Her family must have returned her to Arizona from Los Angeles when she died. Peggy says that "the one who ruptured his appendix in LA" is buried next to her. Peggy reports that there were five plots, but only two were used. Oliver must have bought five plots and not used them all. Peggy thinks that Ida was shipped to Arizona to be buried because Oliver had already paid for the plot.  But, by the time he died there was no money to get him back there.
