Mary Sue Haynes (Hunter) was born to Cur- tis and Pauline Haynes on January 12, 1929, in Cedar Grove, Tennessee, and passed away on September 28, 2019, in Phoenix, Ari- zona, at the age of 90¾. Sue was raised by her mom, Pauline, and grand- parents, Anderson and Sudie Lewis, in rural Ten- nessee. She was educated at Leach Seventh-day Adven- tist Church school and Broadview Academy in Hinsdale, Illinois. Sue came west in the summer of 1946 with her mother, her Aunt Fay and Uncle Tommy Grogan and cousin Ann Noe Crook Calvert to pick fruit in the Yakima Valley. Ann and Sue grew up together like sisters, both being raised by their grandparents while their divorced moth- ers worked to support the family. While harvesting apples, Sue met Keith V. Hunter, a veteran of World War II who had returned home from serving (and earning two Purple Hearts) in the U.S. Army in the South Pacific. They mar- ried in Pendleton, Novem- ber 4 of the same year, in the home of his brother and sister-in-law, Bud and Velta Hunter. They all worked in Hunter Brother’s Poultry. Son Michael Ray Hunter (longtime CPA in Herm- iston, former wife Marsha McCormick) followed in 1947 and daughter Susan Kay Hunter (retired VP in Portland, husband John Anderton) 18 months after that. Sue’s mother, Pauline, went back home to Hins- dale, Illinois, but moved out to Sunnyside, Washing- ton, when Sue was preg- nant with her first child, Mike, in 1947. Pauline married Bickleton farmer and rancher Henry Hooker in 1950. They had a daugh- ter in 1950 and Sue, with two children of her own, became a “big sister” to Gale (Blankenship, hus- band Randy, Bickleton). Keith and Sue Hunter worked 30+ years at East- ern Oregon State Hospital. Sue was a medical records librarian and Keith was in charge of the commissary. Keith Hunter died in Janu- ary 1992 after a long battle with Alzheimer’s. Sue con- tinued to live in Pendleton (over 70 years altogether) and married Spencer Mathis of Los Angeles on Septem- ber 16, 1998. Together they ran a mobile repair business for the trucking industry in Pendleton. Spence and Sue retired to Yuma, Arizona, in the fall of 2016. During her long life she was a doting grandmother to John Hunter (Dusty) and Ben Hunter (Stacey), both of Hermiston (and their children Mitchell, Danelle, Kaylee and Tyler) and Ismoon Hunter-Mor- ton (Portland) and Jon- quil Hunter-Morton (Jaime Nicholson, San Antonio). She lovingly embraced the Mathis family as a dear stepmother to Spence’s children: Spence Jr. and wife Bobbie (Beavertown, Pa.), Tracey Lynn Carde- nas (Camas), and Heather Louise Mathis. She was Grammy to the Mathis chil- dren: Lisa, Chylo, Cody, Cheyenne, Michaela and Gracie. Sue was a cherished aunt to Bud and Velta’s five children, who were all raised in Pendleton: Larry (Billie Jo, Lincoln City), Jean (Portland), Den- nis (Oddie, Ocean Shores, Wash., and Phyllis Hunter, former wife, Pendleton), Kim (The Dalles) and Ron (deceased), and their chil- dren: Jeff, Steve, Cathy, Denise, Phillip, TerryLee, Christopher, Brian, Keith and Ronna. In addition to Spence, her husband of 21 years, sister, children and stepchildren, she is survived by many nieces and nephews and grand-, great-grand-, and great-great-grandchildren. At the age of 40 she entered college to graduate in 1970, earning an associ- ate of arts degree at Port- land Community College. A scholarship is being estab- lished in her name to help single women with children to be able to continue their education. Memorial con- tributions in her name may be sent to Blue Mountain Community College Foun- dation, P.O. Box 100, Pend- leton, OR 97801. A heartfelt thanks to Bobbie and Spencer Mathis Jr. and Shelly Ann Brown (Seaside) for their gener- ous and special care given to Sue during her last days.

Fair numbers up despite thunderstorm By JADE MCDOWELL neWs edItOr Umatilla County Fair and Farm-City Pro Rodeo attendance ticked up in 2019 despite a thunder- storm that sent attendees scattering one night. Al Davis, manager of the Eastern Oregon Trade and Event Center, included an update on the fair during his presentation to the Hermis- ton city council on Monday night. Davis said attendance was estimated at just under 90,000 for the fair and rodeo combined, with about 16,000 rodeo attendees. He said when he checked park- ing on Wednesday night, parking pass sales were within $3 of what they had been the year before. “They’re steady,” he said of the numbers. “We’re not seeing a huge influx up or down.” In 2018, fair board mem- ber Lucas Wagner told the Hermiston Herald that attendance that year had been estimated at 82,000 — up about 800 from the year before that — but rev- enue from concessions and other sales was “signifi- cantly up,” suggesting it may have been even higher. Rodeo attendance was esti- mated at about 16,000 peo- ple in 2018. Davis told the council he thought the severe light- ning that happened on Fri- day night put a damper on Saturday’s numbers. While the rodeo did resume late Friday night after a break for the storm, many people went home instead of sheltering in their vehicles or in build- ings, and the forecast had predicted a strong chance of more lightning Saturday night. He said they learned a lot from putting the fair’s emergency procedures to the test, including the need to better explain that the rodeo would continue later that night, as per PRCA rules. “We learned that ‘hunker in place’ turns into ‘evacu- ate’ real fast,” he said. He said in today’s cli- mate of frequent mass shootings, people tend to panic and not listen well when police start telling them to leave the area. As EOTEC has resumed normal operations since the fair, Davis said they had a great third quarter with 33 events, bringing in $34,000 more in rental fees than the same quarter last year. Davis said they con- tinue to improve the prop- erty, including getting the last of the security cameras installed and running. $80,099.38.
