Emma
Louise
Whitnah,
75, former
resident of
La Grande,
On-
tario, and
Richland,
Emma
Whitnah
Oregon,
passed
away Friday August 19,
2016 in Highland, Utah.
Funeral services were
held Friday, August 26,
2016 at 11:00 a.m. in the
LDS Chapel in Halfway,
Oregon (46568 Cornuco-
pia Hwy) preceded by a
viewing from 10-10:45
a.m.. Interment will be in
the Richland Cemetery
in Richland, Oregon. A
potluck luncheon will
follow for family, friends,
and neighbors at the New
Bridge Grange beginning
about 2:00 p.m.
Emma was born May
2, 1941 in Nampa, Idaho
to Paul (Ben) Koch and
Dorothy Coffey. She spent
her fi rst years in Nampa
until her family moved
to New Meadows, Idaho
where they ran the service
station in town.
Emma grew up spending
lots of time outdoors on
hunting and fi shing trips
with her dad. She was a
champion skeet shooter,
played honky-tonk piano
with the local band begin-
ning when she was 12, and
often worked the service
station alone when her
parents were gone. Emma
was a good student, and
had dreamed of becom-
ing the fi rst woman forest
ranger in Idaho. Shortly
after graduating from high
school in New Meadows,
she married Calvin Hugh
Whitnah on May 17, 1959.
Emma and Calvin raised
three sons: Wes (Grace) of
Aloha, Oregon; Michael
(Anjee) of LaGrande,
Oregon; and Don (Shelly)
of Highland, Utah; and are
grandparents of 12: Becky
Boudrero (Jeff), Robbie
(Tessa), Sean (Amanda),
Bethany Johnson (Mark)
and Bryan; Jarin, Jaina,
Caedra, Alora, and Qwi-
nah; Zachary and Eli; and
are great grandparents of
3: Ryan and Dominic Bou-
drero, and Duke Whitnah;
with more on the way.
Emma was known for
her cooking and baking,
and would decorate cakes
for birthdays and special
occasions long before
it was popular. As her
boys were fi nishing high
school, Emma returned to
school to become an x-ray
technician. She worked in
Portland, La Grande, and
Ontario, traveling fre-
quently across the country
to learn new skills in x-ray
and ultrasound.
Later in life she learned
to play the fi ddle and was
a member of the Old Time
Fiddlers’ groups in Eastern
Oregon/Idaho and in Utah.
Several times a week she’d
play her fi ddle, accordion,
and piano, especially for
older groups who ap-
preciated hearing the old
country tunes they grew up
with.
Arrangements are in the
care of Coles Tribute Cen-
ter at 1950 Place St. Baker
City, Oregon 97814.
