Trina was born on May 25th, 1954, to Jim and Rae Bevan, who moved to Herm- iston when she was young. Trina was baptized into the Hermiston SDA church in March 1972. She has been a faithful member of the Hermiston SDA church and active with the youth and 3ath¿nder club for many years, even up until just weeks before her death. Trina Bevan and Conrad Eckley Eckley were married in November 1972 at the Hermiston SDA church, becoming a member of the Eckley family. Trina and Conrad raised three children in Hermiston: Celena Veverka, Traci Riggs and Jared Eckley. Trina is survived by her husband Conrad, their three children, and two grandchildren as well as her sister Vickie Samson. She was preceded in death by her parents and brother Ken Bevan. Trina has worked for various businesses in Hermiston and is known for being a loyal employee and having a strong work ethic. Most recently she worked at The Horizon Project as receptionist and administra- tive assistant. Trina began working there after having surgery for colon cancer. She said that the workers and the clients just got into her heart. Even when she was feeling sick and weakened by her cancer, she insisted on going to work because she loved the staff and clients. She often said that they made her feel part of something special, something that made a difference in people’s lives. Trina was an avid gardener and loved being outdoors digging in the dirt, planting and enjoying the fruit of her labor. Just days before her death she was talking about how she needed to be out in her garden getting it ready instead of sitting around being sick. Trina loved musicals and old movies, which she shared with her children and anyone who was interested. She was an artist and seamstress, sewing shirts for Conrad, sewing wedding dresses and daily clothing, baby blankets, etc. Trina was a wonderful cook and often gave credit to her beloved mother-in-law, Lois Eckley, for teaching her. She loved camping and being in the woods, another love she shared with her family. In the last few years Trina and Conrad made many trips in their trailer to the mountains and beach, making the most of their time together and enjoying each other’s company. Trina will be remembered as a beloved daughter, sister, wife, mother, grandmother and friend. Through her illness Trina maintained her faith in God and believed that while God may not heal her now, he will heal her someday when she sees him face to face and he calls her name. A memorial service will be held at the Hermiston SDA Church on Saturday, April 23rd at 4:00 p.m. All who loved Trina are welcome to attend.
