Obituary George Passmore Warrenton Former Warrenton resident George Gordon Passmore, 91, died June 11 at the Ore- gon Veterans Home in The Dalles. He was born March 11, 1930, in Greenville, S.C., where he graduated from Parker High School. He worked in a cot- ton mill, on a dairy, and in a lumber mill before joining the U.S. Navy in 1947 at the age of 17. His first ship was the U.S.S. Princeton, an aircraft carrier. He trained to be a photogra- pher and earned the rank of petty officer, 3rd Class. He also earned his high school degree and graduated with his hometown class of 1949. Passmore married his first wife, Colleen, in 1948 while he was still in the Navy. She had a son, William, by a pre- vious marriage and George adopted him about 6 months lat- er. His daughter, Gwen, was born two years into the mar- riage. He incurred an in- jury to his left ear while aboard the Princeton, which was discovered when he was stationed on the U.S.S. Point Cruise. The damage was bad enough that he was given an honorable medical retire- ment in 1952. Passmore and his family moved to Portland, where he operated a service sta- tion. His marriage ended in divorce in 1958. He met his second wife, Koeta “Jo” Rogers and they married on March 2, 1963. He went to work for Co- ca-Cola for the next 23 years, until retiring in 1990. He and his wife moved to Ilwaco, Wash., where he enjoyed fishing with friends and traveling with his wife as “snow- birds” throughout the southern part of the United States. They also made trips to Zimbabwe, England, Ireland, and Alas- ka. The couple moved to Warrenton in 2010. His wife, Jo, preceded him in death on March 19 in As- toria. He is survived by his chil- dren, Will Passmore and Gwen Passmore Lasley; three grandchildren; and several great-grandchildren. A graveside service with military honors is set for 1 p.m. Friday, July 30, at Fort Stevens National Cemetery in Hammond. His wife, Jo, will be laid to rest with him.
