Funeral homes often submit obituaries as a service to the families they are assisting. However, we will be happy to accept obituaries from family members pending proper verification of the death.
Beverly Joy Hewett-Fretz of Mosier, Ore., passed from this life into the arms of her Lord and Savior, on March 14, 2019, at the age of 92.
