Cora Ann Harder was born on Sunday, January 29th, 1928 in Tahlequah, OK,
the daughter of Oscar Luallen and Phoebe (Chair) Danielson. She was
raised in a family of two brothers and four sisters, Houston, James,
Virginia, Kathleen, Dorothy and Laura. Cora graduated from high school
then began her career and raising her son, Allan Harder. She was proud
of her Cherokee heritage and was the first Cherokee Nation employee in
1966. She later retired as an Indian Health Service Purchasing Agent.
She also spent countless hours sewing and doing needle point until her
health would no longer allow. She was never one to sit idly by, Cora was
an avid volunteering. She was active in the Oklahoma Democratic Party
and also volunteered doing disaster relief work through her Church, of
which she was a faithful member. Her pride and joy were her family and
her grand and great grandchildren were the best people on earth to Cora.
She was blessed with a servant’s heart and smile that made everyone
around her feel welcome. She would always be there to lend a helping
hand and never asked for anything in return. Cora passed from this life
on Saturday, December 1st, 2018 in Oklahoma City, OK surrounded by her
family. She was 90 years old and will be greatly missed.
