A2 Announcements wallowa.com December 13, 2017 Wallowa County Chieftain O BITUARIES Barbara Callahan-Chappell April 2, 1932 –– Nov. 25, 2017 Our mother, Barbara (Barbie) Louise Callahan-Chap- pell, 85, of Spokane, Wash., passed away peacefully Nov. 25, 2017, surrounded by family. Born April 2, 1932, in Kennewick, Wash., she was the daughter of the late Rob- ert Christensen and Willa Christensen. Mom had many loves: her family, the outdoors, fishing and hunting, her ani- mals, and of course, her tal- ent as a teacher and artist in many respects of painting, to name a few. She was a dedicated sports fan to the Mariners, Seahawks and let’s not forget Gonzaga. She had incredible knowledge of history and only mom could Callahan-Chappell ever out talk you until 3 a.m. when you paid her a visit. Her beautiful life will be forever cherished in the lives of her children. Mom was a great intellect, a strong woman, good friend to many and most of all a wonderful mother. We will all miss her beyond measure. Our hearts are heavy but are smil- ing as she is at peace. She is survived by her six children; daughter Connie Wil- liams and husband Willie of Greenacres, Wash.; daughter Chris Morrison-Berger and husband Mike of Maple Valley, Wash.; son Tommie D. Callahan III of Pilot Rock, Ore.; son Robert Callahan of Bullhead, Ariz.; daughter Patty Orcutt and husband Jim of Lewiston, Idaho; son Scott Callahan Sr. of Pilot Rock; five grandchildren, Zachary, Stephanie, Tom- mie, Scott and Sydney; and four great-grandchildren; Yesenia, Robert, Athena and Aiden. She was preceded in death by her parents, husbands Tommie Callahan, Jr. and Eugene Chappell and granddaughter Jennifer Prince. Graveside services were Dec. 2 at Riverview Heights Cemetery in Kennewick. The family invites you to sign the tribute wall at muellersfuneralhomes.com.

After retirement, we moved to Troy, Ore., and later bought Lowell’s mother’s house in Asotin where we spent the winters.

Green March 4, 1928 –– Dec. 1, 2017 Rosemary Barnes Green, 89, passed away in College Station, Texas. A memorial service will be held at Christ United Meth- odist Church in College Station 11 a.m. Jan. 6, 2018. Rosemary was born March 4, 1928, in San Diego at Mercy Hospital. She was the only child of Wilmeth (Chapman) and Hartwick Barnes, growing up in the Mission Hills district of San Diego. She attended ele- mentary school there and Fran- cis Parker private school, Roo- sevelt Junior High School and San Diego High. Growing up on Cypress Way, she played with the neigh- borhood kids; played ball in the street with the boys; and pulled a Scotty dog named Glenna Green around in a little red wagon. Rosemary was a gifted stu- dent, had piano lessons for eight years and belonged to the ZLAC Rowing Club on Mission Bay where she rowed competitively. Her father was a member of the San Diego Yacht Club where Rosemary learned sailing and enjoyed swimming. In summers Rosemary spent time in Julian, Calif., working with her uncle, Franklin Barnes, packing apples and pears. During the summer, she also took ice skating lessons at Glacier Gardens. She entered Stanford University in 1949, studying biological sciences, psychology and Spanish. Later in life, she could speak four languages –– Spanish, Portugese, German and French. She also studied Japanese. Rosemary met Don Green at Stanford University, and they were married in 1948. They moved to San Diego County. Four children followed in rapid succession: Catherine, Lucinda, Margery and Douglas. Vacations included sailing, camping, backpacking, skiing and visiting most of the National parks in the west. They bought acreage in El Cajon (San Diego County) where they developed an avocado ranch with Rose- mary’s parents. All their children attended school in El Cajon and became university graduates. Rosemary was a wonderful homemaker and caring mother. She was an excellent seamstress, making dresses for her daugh- ters and costumes for several community theatres. After the chil- dren left home, she became a certified Spanish and Latin teacher, teaching gifted and high school students. Her greatest joy was being with her children and grandchildren. In 1972 Rosemary and Don bought a cattle ranch in Ore- gon. They also became licensed pilots, flying all over the North- west. Rosemary became a member of the “99s”, an international women’s flying club. She would often fly a Cessna 182 solo to meetings. In later years, their travels took them to Alaska, Brazil, Belize and the Caribbean, Germany, Spain, Turkey and Papua New Guinea. Rosemary and Don were members of the Joseph United Meth- odist Church in Oregon and Christ UMC in College Station. They spent more than 50 years singing together in church choirs. They moved to Texas in 2011 to live near their daughter Cath- erine. Survivors include husband Don, all four children, eight grandchildren and 10 great grandchildren. Joseph Clinic 100 N. East St. Joseph 541.426.7900 This week’s athlete of the week is basketball player Jimmy Wells of Enterprise High School. The amazing senior took the court by storm during the Outlaws 51-48 loss to Elgin in the championship game of the Enterprise Winter Classic tournament on Dec. 9. Wells scored nearly half the team’s points, using his laser focus and 110 percent effort in breaking though the Huskies’ iron-curtain zone defense for his 23-point effort. Wells is a constant honor roll presence and participates in FFA. He intends to study wildlife sciences upon graduation. Proudly Sponsored By: Eastern Oregon’s Full Service Propane Supplier 201 E.
