Butternut<br />

PAWS Chicago North Shore<br />

Butternut is a 4-year-old<br />

beauty who turns heads of<br />

everyone who passes him<br />

at the PAWS Chicago North<br />

Shore Adoption Center.<br />

Butternut was originally adopted as a kitten but<br />

was recently returned due to no fault of his own.<br />

This recent change has been hard on Butternut,<br />

so he will need a home that will be patient as he<br />

comes out of his shell. However his true personality<br />

is very sweet and friendly, and his future family will<br />

be very lucky to have him in their home.<br />

Butternut, along with many dogs and cats, is<br />

available for adoption at the PAWS Chicago North<br />

Shore Adoption Center located inside the Petco<br />

at 1616 Deerfield Road in Highland Park. To<br />

“It’s truly magical and<br />

whimsical.”<br />

The same can be said<br />

for the life story of Miriam<br />

Hoover.<br />

The former Marian<br />

Fanny Ulvinen was from<br />

a farm family of Finnish<br />

extraction in Upper Michigan.<br />

There were three boys<br />

and she was the youngest<br />

of nine girls, two of whom<br />

died as babies. Her father<br />

died when she was 4 years<br />

old.<br />

In the mid-1930s at age<br />

20, she came to Hoover’s<br />

mansion to work as the upstairs<br />

maid, one of about a<br />

dozen servants. She was<br />

brought there by a sister<br />

who also worked as a servant.<br />

J. Earl, who persuaded<br />

Marian Fanny to change<br />

her name to Miriam, was<br />

divorced from his first<br />

wife, Dorothy, and shortly<br />

after he was divorced<br />

from his second wife, also<br />

named Dorothy. He married<br />

the former upstairs<br />

The great room, which was referred to as the studio by the Hoovers at their Glencoe<br />

estate now up for sale for $15.9 million. Photo Submitted<br />

maid on Oct. 2, 1950<br />

while on a business trip to<br />

Denver.<br />

At the time of their<br />

marriage, he was 60 years<br />

old and she was 38. The<br />

loving couple traveled<br />

the world and she immersed<br />

herself in Episcopal<br />

Church undertakings<br />

and made philanthropic<br />

contributions to dozens of<br />

cultural organizations.<br />

Among her beneficiaries<br />

were the Chicago Botanical<br />

Society, the Art Institute<br />

of Chicago, the Lyric<br />

Opera of Chicago and the<br />

Chicago Symphony Orchestra.<br />

She also was a<br />

major contributor to LGBT<br />

causes. Miriam is survived<br />

by four stepsons and their<br />

families.<br />

Although Rue said the<br />

longtime family home<br />

“would be perfect for a<br />

residential family looking<br />

for a larger piece of land,”<br />

the real estate broker left<br />

open the possibility that<br />

the property “could be developed”<br />

to include other<br />

residences.
