Josephine ‘Jo’ Farris

school in Weiser, Idaho, and at-
tended the University of Idaho
for three years. It was there she
met and fell in love with Stan-
ley Jefferson Farris, and they
married Aug. 19, l943. They
were the proud parents of two
children, Diane Marie and Rob-
ert Stanley, and Jo took on the
role of homemaker. Although
she regretted not obtaining her
degree, she made up for it by being active with the local 4-H
JURXSVDQGWHDFKLQJPHPEHUVWKH¿QHUSRLQWVRIFRRNLQJEDN
ing and sewing. She was an excellent seamstress and enjoyed
making clothes and costumes for her children and later making
leather moccasins for her grandchildren. She won multiple blue
ribbons at the county fair for her huckleberry jam. Jo always
loved treks to gather morels and huckleberries with her family.
She was very proud of her children and grandchildren and never
missed an opportunity to brag about them.
Jo was very active in the community and was a charter
member of the Enterprise Community Church. She also was
a member of PEO, Eastern Star and the Red Hat Society. She
enjoyed traveling and was fortunate to visit several countries
and destinations with close family and friends. She also golfed
and played a good game of bridge. She had the honor of being
Grand Marshall, along with her husband, at the Crazy Daze Pa-
rade while living in Enterprise.
Jo took pride in the fact that she was able to make a substan-
tial donation to Wallowa County Health Care Foundation, as
well as establish college accounts for her great-grandchildren.
Following her husband’s tragic death in 1995, Jo remained
in Enterprise for two years before relocating to Olympia, Wash.,
to be closer to her daughter.
Jo was preceded in death by her husband Stan; sisters Hulda
(Harry) Braden and Eleanor (Craig) Barnett; brother Johnnie
(Roeberta) Schwenkfelder; and son-in-law Phil Crow.
