| Hi Barb,
|   Ora Burton was a friend of Melba Hamblin, and Melba named an iris after
| her.  She has lived in Salt Lake City, Utah for a very long time.  The 
last
| time I last saw Ora was at an iris show a few years back.  The last I 
heard
| was that she was in declining health.  I'm not sure of her age but I think
| that she is in her upper 70's or early 80's.
|   Hope that this helps.
