Remembering Erma

 

     Erma was a wonderful mother, grandmother, and great grandmother. Family photos were prominent on her walls, shelves, and refrigerator in her Dufur home. Her happiest times

were spent with family. In celebrating Erma’s life, we also celebrate all those she loved so dearly.

     Erma was a treasured friend and neighbor, a valued member of the community, and a long-time employee of the U.S. Forest Service. She spread happiness and kindness wherever she

went, and she will be greatly missed.

     Erma is survived by her sons, Frank (Sandy) Utah, of Portland and Ken (Kathy) Uto, of Davenport, WA; five grandchildren, Jenny (Chad) Utah and Stacey Utah, both of Portland, Erica (Brendon) Baldus of Grangeville, ID, Kaci (Anthony) Juette of Kennewick, WA, McKenzie (Brendan) Lueck of Pomeroy, WA; and 11 great grandchildren, Emma, Wyatt and Jack Utah, Megan and Hailey Borowick, Tevyn, Truett and Trinley Baldus, Addison, Kylie and Raeley Juette, with new Babies Lueck and Juette expected soon.

     Erma was born on January 30, 1930 and passed on May 3, 2021 at age 91. Her husband Bill Uto passed in 2011 at age 85.
