Dickerson Walla Walla December 15, 1930-October 5, 2016 Shirley M. Dickerson of Walla Walla passed away on Wednesday, October 5, 2016, at St. Mary’s Hospital in Walla Walla, Wash., following a major stroke at her home the previous Sunday. She was well-known for her pastel paintings of horses and dogs, a lifelong love of horses, and her active role in the community. Shirley was born December 15, 1930, in Port- land, Oregon, to Herbert L. and Irene Otto Warner. In her early teens she fell in love with horses, listening to her dad’s stories and poems about the horses of the family sheep ranch near Pilot Rock. In 1955 she married Kenneth D. Dickerson and moved to a new home, built by her father, in Walla Walla. She worked at Ellis Horn’s Stateline Saddlery, the Eagle Times and later Valley Herald newspapers in Milton-Freewater. She was a horse show photog- rapher for 15 years, doing all of her own developing and printing. She opened her own business making chaps and from 1985, for 11 years, made the leather outits for the Pendleton Round-Up court, as well as outits for the Walla Walla Fair court. Shirley was an accom- plished artist and, over more than 60 years, has painted more than 3,000 horses and dogs for owners in 30 states, many for year-end championships and special awards. She created works in pencil and oil, but is best known for her work in pastels and capturing the spirit and personality of the animals she drew. She was awarded Best of Show and People’s Choice awards in the Fine Arts division of the WW Fair and Frontier Days on multiple occasions. A historian for her family and many clubs, Shirley was also an avid scrapbooker, creating one or two each year since the early 1950s, as well as keeping a diary, a tradition handed down from her mother. She was an active member of her commu- nity and over the years served as a member of the WW County Park Board, WWCC Farrier Board, and National Senior Pro Rodeo Assn. She was chairman of the M-F Junior Show Horse Show and Pioneer Posse Summer Series, led the Cavalletti 4-H Club for 10 years and was a judge for the WW Fair court. She was a former president of the Blue Mt. Riders, WW Valley Horsemen and Wash. State Barrel Racing Associ- ation. Shirley was a charter member of the Milton-Free- water Pioneer Posse in 1947 and has served as president, secretary-treasurer, news- letter editor, and director and lifetime board member. In 1961 she organized the Valley Girls Barrel Racing Assn. and served as presi- dent. She was Valley Girls Champion in 1965 and has made the top ten six times, most recently in 2004. It is no wonder that in 2002 she was also named Most Inspirational. Additional honors include over 40 buckles and two saddles, irst in 1957 Pioneer Posse Summer Series scurry race and most recently for western plea- sure in 2012. Shirley was 2005 WW Fair and Frontier Days parade marshal with Greta Hassler. And in 2008 she was one of three named to the Legends Hall of Fame honoring past rodeo competitors. In the 2010 Pendleton 100th anniver- sary Round-Up parade she rode (at age 80) with Kite Lazinka Thorne as oldest reunion court members on horseback. She also won National Senior Pro Rodeo Assn. barrel racing and All-Around Cowgirl 60+ division that year. Shirley and her husband “went south” for many years, bringing horses and current dog along for the winter. First in California, and later in Cave Creek, Ariz., they gathered with friends from California, Colorado, Arizona, Nevada, Oregon and Washington. At Doud Camp, also known as the Draggin’ Ass Cattle Company, they were able to enjoy horses year-round in the warm weather. Shirley is survived by her daughter, Jan Brashear; son-in-law Scott Brashear; granddaughters Bailey Chroninger of Renton, Wash., and Lauren Brashear, senior at U of Idaho; and her barrel horse, Salty Dawg. She was preceded in death by her parents and husband of 57 years, Kenneth D. Dickerson. Family and friends will meet for interment at the Helix Cemetery on Friday, October 14, at 2:30 p.m. A memorial service is planned for Saturday, October 15, at 4:00 p.m. at the pavilion at the Walla Walla Fairgrounds.

Alice was born October 2, 1914, in Natchez, Wash- ington, to Alta Mae and Reuben Weigel. The family moved to Oak Grove, Oregon, where Alice was raised and later graduated from Milwaukie High School in 1932. Alice attended Paciic University and completed her education at Eastern Oregon Univer- Fossatti sity majoring in elementary educa- tion. She began her 23-year teaching career, teaching kindergarten at Hawthorne Elementary School until her retirement in 1980. Alice and G.

They came to Eastern Oregon, living in both Athena and Milton-Freewater before inally settling in Pendleton in 1949. They enjoyed 73 years of marriage until Don’s death in 2011.

She was a member of PEO Chapter CM, Delta Kappa Gamma, Delphian Club, Hospital Auxillary, Country Club board, and an early Pendleton swim team board member. She was cele- brated as Pendleton School District’s Teacher of the Year, and last year an art studio at the Arts Center was named in her honor.

Alice was preceded in death by her parents, her two siblings, her beloved G. Don, and numerous aunts, uncles and cousins. She is survived by John Fossatti and Joanne; Jeanne Christensen and Bob; Donna Collins and Rob; seven grandchildren, 15 great-grandchildren, and hundreds of kindergarten students that she touched.
