Okay, here's your information.  Since you mentioned that Richard was buried
in Cowlitz County, Washington, I looked up that way.

1930 Federal Census
Kelso, Cowlitz County, Washington
Joe Simonson b. ca 1891   Washington      Head
Ina Simonson  b. ca 1897                           Wife
Hazel Simonson b. ca 1917                        Daughter
Frances Simonson b. ca 1921                     Daughter
Richard Simonson                                       Son

(So I assume that Joyce and Gloria were probably born after 1930)

Mount Solo Cemetery, Cowlitz County, Washington
SIMONSON, Ina Helena			23 Jun 1896		10 Nov 1974

Mt. SOLO CEMETERY, Mt. Solo Road, Longview, WA 98632

The Mt. Solo Cemetery was founded in 1897 by 29 Finnish citizens of this
pioneer community.
One acre of land was purchased from Matt Ryding and is currently under the
management of the
Pioneer Mt. Solo Cemetery Association. There are about 242 burials at this
date, and it is still
occasionally used by families of the original owners.

There were no known sexton records for this cemetery. The following records
were gathered from tombstone
inscriptions, obituary articles, mortuary records and the Washington State
Death Index. This
information was compiled by Alice Bortnem and Pam Chilton in 1983.

You might be able to check with this e-mail address above and see if she
knows if Joe Simonson is buried there as well.  Otherwise, you'd have to get
a copy of Joe's death certificate to find out where he is buried.  There are
two Lahti names in that cemetery as well.

 I'm not sure what was Aino Simonson's birth name, maybe Lahti. I know that
she is relative by my ggfather August Lahti (born in Finland, Muonio
1.10.1862), he has also been in USA, but I haven't found the official
information on that yet.
Thanks for information of Mark Nyman. I'll contact to him.
Hope he is one of them.
Thanks
