Judie Scobee passed away June 3, 2022, in Portland, Ore. Judith Ann Scobee (Benzel) was born on April 29, 1936, in White Salmon, Wash., to Jake and Cleo Benzel. Judie and her family moved across the river to Hood River, Ore., while she was still an infant, and was raised there with her two older sisters, Bobby and Jackie. Judie graduated from Wy’east High School in 1954, where she met the love of her life, Gale. Gale and Judie were married on April 30, 1955, at Hood River Valley Christian Church.

Judie was a mother to three sons, Douglas, David, and Robert. Their family moved around frequently due to Gale’s career at Pacific Power and Light, but Judie made a loving home no matter where they were. After Gale retired in 1986, they moved back to their hometown of Hood River, where they purchased the family orchard from Gale’s father. Judie worked at the post office located inside Hi School Pharmacy (formerly Ben Franklin) from 1987 until she retired 10 years later in 1998.
