family and friends.
She also loved her
various charities in-
cluding St. Labre
Indian School, The
Girls & Boys Town,
St. Joseph Indian
School, and Easter
Seals.
She was so compassion-
ate and cared for anyone,
young or old, that hap-
pened to cross her path that
needed a hot meal, a mom,
a friend, some encour-
agement or the sharing of
God’s word. Some of these
individuals stayed for a
day, some stayed for years.
If someone came in about
dinner time her saying was,
“We always have room for
one more.” She has become
Mom and Grandma to so
many over the years, lov-
ing every one of them, and
many of them have had the
pleasure of being gifted one
of her beautiful crocheted
blankets. She has always
taken great joy and comfort
in her family. She loved be-
ing in the middle of a large
family gathering surround-
ed by her family, kids,
grandkids, and great-grand-
kids, having the time of her
life. She was loved by so
many and will be missed by
many who thought of her
with such love and admira-
tion.
A celebration of her life
will be on Aug. 17th at 12
p.m. at West Park, McNary
Dam, Umatilla, Ore.
