H. Joy Marks
Hermiston
December 2, 1921-November 13, 2015
Joy was born Dec. 2,
1921, in Tangent, Oregon,
and passed from this life
Nov. 13, 2015. She was
the third child of Dela-
ware and Emma
(Vollstedt) Faulk-
ner. Joy was named
Henrybelle at birth,
the combination of
the names of Del’s
favorite
brother
and Emma’s moth-
er’s, both of whom Marks
passed shortly be-
fore Joy’s birth. She grew
up being known as “Hen-
ry” or “Hank,” and it was
only during her last year
of college she changed to
using her middle name.
Del was a mechanic by
trade, though during the
Great Depression there
was little trade to work on.
Emma, with the two girls,
worked cannery and ¿ eld
work to make ends meet.
Joy graduated from Alba-
ny schools and then as a
member of Alpha Xi Del-
ta sorority earned a bach-
elor’s degree at Oregon
State. She then worked in
the Ag/Econ department at
OSU before being intro-
duced to her husband on
a blind date by a sorority
sister. She and Gayle were
married in 1948.
With husband Gayle,
after he completed his de-
gree at OSU, she moved
to Hermiston, or as her
boss the department chair
at OSU, put it, “from the
land of ever rain to the
land of never rain.” While
embracing the sand and
sagebrush of Eastern Or-
egon, she never lost her
love of the greenery of the
Willamette Valley.
Hermiston at the time
(1949) was booming, with
Umatilla Ordinance De-
pot, Hinkle rail yard and
the building of McNary
Dam all happening. Find-
ing a residence was a chal-
lenge, though the couple
found a rental on Beebe
Street. They considered
themselves fortunate as
many (with good jobs)
were forced to live in tar
paper shacks or houses
hastily thrown together
out of empty ammunition
boxes.
They bought a house on
East Ridgeway where sons
Tom and Rodney joined
their lives. In 1964 built
the home they were to
live in for the rest of their
lives, on a bluff overlook-
ing the Umatilla River.
Joy was a “stay at
home” mom until the sons
were out of the house,
though even then, always
involved in charity work
and various clubs around
town. She was an
avid and keen card
player, with a spirit
of competitiveness
that could be truly
amazing. She be-
longed to the same
bridge group for
over 60 years, was
a past president of
Chapter DR of P.E.O. and
a decades long volunteer
with the Good Shepherd
Hospital Auxiliary. She
was a longtime member of
the First Christian Church.
Joy was an accom-
plished seamstress, con-
stantly knitting, crochet-
ing and creating. Her
upbeat attitude to life and
her sense of humor even
in dif¿ cult times were a
blessing to all.
At age 85, in response to
the urging of family, who
thought all the memories
she had needed recording,
she tackled learning word
processing on a computer.
Although a lifetime touch
typist, to her the com-
puter was quite a foreign
animal. Yet she began the
writing of her life story.
This unpublished book
¿ nally ran to 180-plus
pages and is eye-opening
in the details of a life that
spanned 93-plus years, the
Great Depression, a World
War, raising two sons and
life in Hermiston from the
town’s formative years to
today.
Joy was preceded in
death by both parents, her
husband Gayle; son Rod-
ney and his wife Jeannie;
her brother Marion; and
her sister Katherine (and
all Katherine’s family).
She is survived by son
Tom; grandsons Jacob
(Meghan), Derek (¿ ancp
Sarah) and Devon; grand-
daughters Amy Runion
and Katelyn Marks; and
two great-grandsons, Ben-
jamin (from Jake) and
Noah (from Derek).
Memorial services will
be at the First Christian
Church at 11 a.m. on Fri-
day the 20th. The family
asks in lieu of À owers,
contributions go to Agape
House.

A hundred years from now it will not matter what My bank account
was, the sort of house I lived in, or the kind of car I drove... but the
world may be different because I was important in the Life of a Child.
