John “J.T.” Pound
Haines, 1960-2017
John “J.T.”
Pound, 57, of
Haines, Or-
egon died on
a summer’s
night in July,
2017 at St.
J.T.
Alphonsus
Pound
Regional
Medical
Center in Boise, Idaho. A
Celebration of his life will
be held in the fall to be an-
nounced at a later date.
For those who knew and
loved J.T, they would say
that he was a kind, big
hearted, gentle giant of a
man. He had a passion
for fast cars, motorcycles,
and snowmobiling all of
which began at young age
and carried on throughout
his life. He not only had a
strong work ethic but he
also loved to work. In his
later years he was able to
work alongside his brother
Brian doing construction
and could be seen driving
heavy machinery perhaps
a bit faster than it should
go. It could be said that J.T
was truly one who could
not drive, “55.” J.T was a
smooth talker and had been
known for giving good ad-
vice on more than one oc-
casion. J.T read the entire
Bible three times and could
quote from it. He also liked
animals. J.T was a friend
to anyone, he appreciated
good food and he loved to
laugh. J.T lived life day
by day and took whatever
life dealt him in stride. He
understood that “Life is not
about waiting for the storm
to pass, it is about learning
to ride in the rain.” J.T will
be missed.
J.T was preceded in death
by his mother Beverly
Jones, father John F. Pound
and brother Jason Pound.
He was survived by his
children John (Johnny)
and Cody Pound; sisters
Connie Lewis, Cathy
Boyd, Roberta Stehle and
Crystal Smith; brother
Brian Pound; uncles and
aunts: Donald and Peggy
Thames, Anthony and
Bonnie Jones, Blanche
Kemp and Yvonne Day;
nieces and nephews:
Angela and John Sul-
livan and family; Nicole
Nelson and family; Kayla
and Kelly Kowalski and
family; Brandon, Curtis
and Kristine Stehle, Sarah
and Jeremiah Relka and
numerous cousins, grand
nieces and nephews.

like to make a donation in
memory of J.T the family

Baker City (Pet rescue and
adoption) through Tami’s

Dorothy “Dot”
Hathaway
Baker City, 1921-2017
Dot was
born in
St. Helens
Oregon on
February
13, 1921.
She passed
Dot
away Sunday Hathaway
August 13th,
2017.
She is preceded in death
by her husband Wayne
of 79 years, her parents
Charlie and Dora Smith,
her siblings Bernice and
her husband Gene, Carl
and his wife Stella, Evert
and his wife Elsie, Verna
and her husband Elmer,
Barbara and her husband
Fred. She is survived by
her two daughters, Connie
Carnagey, Jeannette Har-
rop and her husband Ron.
Two grandsons, Joseph
Carnagey and his wife An-
nitta, Philip Carnagey and
his wife Angie. Also many
nieces and nephews.
Dot was a devoted wife,
mother, aunt and many
other titles. She fully sup-
ported her husband Wayne
in his many endeavors over
the years. She camped
with him and cooked while
he was logging. She oper-
ated a laundromat while
Wayne worked operating
heavy equipment. When
Wayne was invited to vol-
unteer at the headquarters
of Jehovah’s Witnesses in
New York, she went along
and volunteered too. She
worked in the laundry and
had many stories to share
about the experience.
Wayne was invited to be
the caretaker of the As-
sembly Hall of Jehovah’s
Witnesses in Woodburn
Oregon and Dot was happy
to do her part. While
there, they not only cared
for the facility, they both
provided hospitality for
many traveling overseers
and their wives, also many
representatives from Head-
quarters in New York.
Dot was an excellent
cook and she loved to pre-
pare meals for her friends
and family. She was well
known for her peanut
butter cookies, her whole-
wheat gems that she baked
in a cast iron gem iron and
many other dishes.
Dot will be greatly
missed, but we look for-
ward to seeing her again in
the resurrection recorded
at John 5: 28, 29. “Do not
be amazed at this, for the
hour is coming in which
all those in the memo-
rial tombs will hear his
voice and come out, those
who did good things to a
resurrection of life, and
those who practiced vile
things to a resurrection of
judgment.” She loved to
share this hope with others
whenever she could. Over
the years she was very
active as one of Jehovah’s
Witnesses. She studied the
Bible with many people
and encouraged her family
to do the same. Many in
her family are or have been
full time evangelizers be-
cause of her and Wayne’s
excellent example.
There will be a memorial
for Dot on September 9th
at 2 p.m. at the Kingdom
Hall of Jehovah’s Witness-
es in Baker City located at
975 S Bridge St. For those
who wish to make a dona-
tion in memory of Dot may
do so to www.jw.org. On
line condolences may be
shared at www.tamispine-
valleyfuneralhome.com.
