Ashley Beard
Ashley Nicole Beard left
us way too soon, as a result
of rare, in-
c u r a b l e
brain
tu-
m o r s. S h e
fought an ex-
tremely long
a n d b r ave
battle that
most would
h ave
Ashley Beard n o t
been able to
bear. She passed away Feb.
19, 2015. Ashley remained
positive throughout many
surgeries, treatments, set-
backs and constant pain.
She was and will remain an
inspiration to many, demon-
strating her absolute faith
and indomitable spirit.
She is survived by her
son, Hayden Bakes (who re-
sides in Las Vegas with his
father, Gianni Bakes, step-
mother Ashley Thompson,
two sisters and baby broth-
er); parents Megan Schroed-
er (Irish) and Tony Beard,
along with their spouses
Mike Schroeder and Kim
Beard; her sisters, Zoe Car-
rier and Jackie Boliba; and
her brother, Jag Beard. She
is also survived by her
g randparents, Mike and
Christy Irish and Patty Wil-
son (Beard); her loving
aunts, uncles, cousins and
many, many friends who all
faithfully followed her jour-
ney. Ashley’s lifelong friend,
Roxanne Wheeler, was at
her side as often as she
could be.
Ashley was born Oct. 2,
1988, in McMinnville, Ore.,
and was a resident of Van-
couver, Wash., The Dalles,
Ore., Astoria, Ore., Young-
town, Ariz., and Las Vegas,
Nev.
She attended Clatsop
Community College, where
she earned her associate de-
gree (while enduring radia-
tion and chemotherapy) and
was a junior at Portland
State University, where she
continued to work online to-
ward a degree in criminal
justice until such time that
she was no longer able.
A beautiful spirit; a lov-
ing mother; a cherished
daughter, sister, g rand-
daughter; and a beloved
friend. In loving memory of
Ashley’s fondness to pay it
forward, we have estab-
lished the Hayden Bakes
Savings Account. Contribu-
tions may be made in per-
son or mailed to: Columbia
State Bank, 316 E. Third St.,

life will be held in The

Winnifred
Fern Allum
Winnifred Allum passed
away Feb. 20, 2015, in Gre-
sham, Ore. She was born
July 28, 1921, in Detroit,
Mich., to Daniel David Smith
and Jessie Maybelle Arm-
strong.
“Winnie” grew up in the
small Michigan farm com-
munity of Williamston,
graduated
high school
in 1940, and
obtained a
teaching cer-
tificate in
1941.
She
taught grades
1-8 at Meech
Winnifred
School and
Allum
North Leslie
School, both
historic one-room school-
houses in Michigan. She
moved near Detroit in 1943
and was one of “Rosie the
Riveters,” building fighter
planes during the last two
years of World War II.
Winnie moved to Arizona
in 1946 with her parents. She
met her future husband,
Harry John Allum, while
they were students at the
Arizona Bible Institute in
Phoenix. In addition to rais-
ing a family with Harry, Win-
nie earned a bachelor’s de-
gree in elementary educa-
tion at Grand Canyon Col-
lege in Phoenix, and a mas-
ter’s degree in elementary
education at Northern Ari-
zona University in Flagstaff,
Ariz.
Winnie and Harry moved
to Oregon in 1971, first living
in Gresham, then Parkdale,
then back to Gresham. Back
in Gresham, they were mem-
bers of Grace Community
Church, finished their ca-
reers, retired together and
enjoyed many trips along the
Columbia Gorge and Rowena
Plateau.
Winnie was a reading
teacher in Parkdale (mid-
1970s) and in the Gresham
area public schools. After re-
tiring in 1979 she tested
home-schooled children. She
was an insatiable reader
throughout life, quick-witted
with a great sense of humor.
Winnie was preceded in
death by her husband of 49
years, Harry in 1997; sons
Samuel and Stephen; sisters
Rosalie and Elma; and her
brother Norris.
She is survived by her
daughter, Hilda, and grand-

ington; son Daniel (Alexis)
and grandchildren Kather-
ine, Jacob and Savannah of
Nevada; and many nieces
and nephews in Michigan.
