Aileen was born in Pawnee, Oklahoma to Harry and Lena Bell. She was the middle child with ten siblings. On April 3, 1943 she married Harold C. Percival in Wichita, Kansas. After several moves they settled in Portland, OR in 1946.
Aileen was a homemaker and mother until her last child graduated high school. Then she worked in the book binding business and was very proud of her ten year career.
She was an avid bowler for over 60 years with a 300 game to her credit. Aileen was forced to quit due to an injury at the age of 90. She followed all sports but was a fanatic about football to the point of having multiple T.V.’s to keep up with her sports addiction. Aileen operated a famous World Series pool from 1957 until her passing.
She was loved and adored by all and will be forever missed.
Aileen was preceded in death by her husband; Harold, son; Harold Jr. and daughter; Patricia. She is survived by her sons; Michael of Las Vegas, NV., Chester of Portland, OR., Ron of Woodenville, WA, daughter; Rhonda of Portland, 18 grandchildren, 30 great grandchildren and a future great-great grandchild.
