Read More	Dora Grace (Busherd) Paslay-Harkins, 88, was born October 20, 1916, to Percy Busherd and Sophie (Bergenholtz) Busherd. She passed away suddenly July 17, 2005, as the result of a stroke at the Okanogan Douglas Hospital in Brewster, WA. Dora was born in Leahy, WA and lived throughout her childhood in Leahy, Gold Creek and Pateros. She was a graduate of Pateros High School in 1934. She lived in Brewster all of her adult life, except for five years during World War II when she and their children followed her husband, Clint, to various military base construction sites in Oregon, including the Hermiston ammunition dump, Tillamook blimp base and Coos Bay military airstrip. She worked in the fruit industry her entire life as an apple packer and later as an orchardist with her husband Clint. She also helped her son, Terry, who took over the family orchard operation in the late 1960's. Upon her marriage to Homer Harkins, she was instrumental in the success of their orchard operation. She came to love her many new brothers and sisters-in-law and their families and loved to visit them during trips to Arkansas. Dora was a homemaker, gardener and enjoyed raising her beautiful roses. Her flowers adorned the interiors of her home and the church, and were also used in local weddings. Her home was always open to her family and friends, and she was the happiest when she was surrounded by them. In 1987, she was honored by being chosen as Brewster's "Mother of the Year." She is survived by her sister, Lois Branham of Spokane; her brother, Bob Busherd of Moses Lake; six children, Donnelle (Deane) Brotherton of Renton, Wilma Smith of Spokane, Ron (Ruth Ann) Paslay of Brewster, Terry (Carole) Paslay of Omak, Lynne (Dan) Hunter of Chelan and Pat (Bob) Wood of Lubbock, TX; seventeen grandchildren; twenty-four great-grandchildren; two great-great-grandchildren; and many beloved nieces and nephews. Dora was preceded in death by her husband, Clint Paslay in 1963; and her second husband, Homer Harkins in 2001; her parents; two sisters; and one brother. She led a full life of service and dedication to her family, friends and Christian faith. She was a member of the Brewster Community Log Church.
