Jennie Mathilde Walsh ….


Jennie Mathilde Walsh 1925-2022 Jennie Mathilde Walsh, a 13year resident of Leisure World, died Nov. 18 at her home. She was 97. Born in Ketchikan, Alaska, on March 21, 1925, Jennie was the only child of a pioneer Alaskan fishing boat captain Otto Bindpage and his wife, Ione. After high school graduation, Jennie first moved to California to attend Scripps College in 1943. A year later she married U.S. Army Corps of Engineer Vincent Walsh, who had been stationed in Ketchikan and served in the Alaskan Campaign in World War II. The couple settled in Southern California and were married for 63 years until his death in 2007. A homemaker and accomplished seamstress, Jennie enjoyed playing and watching golf. She and Vince were longtime members of Chevy Chase Golf Course in Glendale and later the Golf Course of Oregon in Albany, Oregon. Jennie raised three children, one daughter, Dawn Hoeger, who preceded her in death, and two sons, Douglas Walsh (Kathleen) and Daniel Walsh (Debbie). She is also survived by son-in-law Dennis Hoeger, three grandchildren, Darren Hoeger, Maree Hoeger and Michael Walsh and three greatgrandchildren, Colin Troman, Sebastian Walsh and Madeline Walsh. She enjoyed her later years at Leisure World where she became an avid gardener, often seen basking amid the amazing plant display on her sunny Mutual 9 patio.
