Elsa Youngren Cleburn(e) obituary

Seeking obituary for Elsa Youngren Cleburn, born ca. 1918, Colorado, died 28 June 1952 in the Oregon State Hospital, Salem. She entered the hospital 9 April 1952 for epilepsy. Death cert says "usual residence" was 1527 N. 16th, Springfield, Lane Co., OR, so I'm wondering if there might be an obit for her in the Springfield/Eugene area. Her occupation is "lens grinder." Where might this have been? She was divorced ca. 1940-42. Her body was shipped back to Colorado for burial.

I know that her daughter, Barbara Cleburne, was in high school in Eugene, then Springfield, between 1950 and spring 1952. Before that they were in Colorado.

I know Elsa's younger brother Benton Youngren was in Springfield, OR. Was she living with him? Is that why she went to Oregon ca. 1950?

Thanks so much for helping me find out if there was an Oregon obituary for Elsa.
