Her grandchildren say that Thanksgiving was always her holiday! We will be forever thankful that she was our mother, grandmother, great-grandmother, sister, aunt, cousin and friend. Joan Marie was born May 4, 1930, on a bright, sunny Sunday morning in Heppner, Ore., to Paul and Kathleen (Monahan) Hisler. She attended Sumner Heppner schools where activities included rally squad, Girls State representative and Heppner Rodeo queen. Post-high school, Joan attended Eastern Oregon State College, where she was a cheerleader and earned a degree in education. Joan married Jim Sumner on June 29, 1952, and they celebrated over 60 years together, until Jim’s passing in 2012. Mrs. Sumner taught at grade schools in Hood River, Heppner, Ellensburg, Wash., and The Dalles, Ore. She and Jim moved to The Dalles in 1960. Joan taught at Joseph G. Wilson Elementary and was the first lay teacher at St. Mary’s Academy. In 1965, she helped initiate the new Head Start program in The Dalles, as the first teacher. Joan was a member of St. Peter’s Catholic Church and volunteered for many local organizations. She worked on Wasco County Red Cross blood drives alongside Jim (chairman) for many, many years. Ironically, at age 86, she developed myelodys- plastic syndrome and it was donor blood that sustained her. Joan was a very grounded, joyful person who continued to spread sunshine throughout her life. She was our family cheerleader. She enjoyed her faith, family and many wonderful friends. Joan is survived by her daughter Angela Shearer (Jeff); son Shane; grandsons Scott Shearer (Erika), Brian Shearer (Kate), Markus Shearer and Brent Sumner; great-grandsons Thomas and Jack Shearer; sister Francine Bristow (Tom); and brother Paul Hisler Jr. (Susan).
