Read More	Dorothy Mae (Schneider) Philmon was born to George and Helen Schneider on the 14th of August 1925 in Withrow WA and left this world to be with her Lord and Savior on October 28th, 2020 at Mid Valley Hospital, Omak WA. Dorothy was raised on the south half of the Colville Indian Reservation on her parents homestead. She was the 3rd eldest of 10 children. Dorothy milked the cows, cut and raked the hay alongside her brothers. This was a rugged way of life, farming without any modern day equipment. Her favorite, and quite possibly only, thing she liked about living there was the home made ice cream they would make. She rode her horse, "Iron Side" to collect the ice for her mother from the ice caves. In her teen years, she and her sister, Helen, rented a room in town so they could attend Okanogan High School. Dorothy married Edward Leo Moomaw in 1943 in Okanogan, WA and they welcomed their daughter, Janice Elaine, in 1945. They spent the next couple of years in the Loomis area. Dorothy worked to support her young daughter in the record department of Montgomery Ward in Omak. Dorothy married Jack Boyd Figlenski in 1954 in Omak, WA and they welcomed their daughter, Sandra Lee, in 1955. Dorothy worked for Coast to Coast when it was on Main Street. Dorothy went to work at the Okanogan Pharmacy working for her sister, Polly and brother-in-law Frank Truax. Dorothy was a member of the bowling league and on the Okanogan Pharmacy Team. Dorothy loved horses and enjoyed horseback riding. Jack and Dorothy packed into the Pasayten Wilderness with Gene Curtis one year. Dorothy married Larry Ray Philmon in 1983 in Okanogan, WA. Dorothy continued to work at the drug store until retirement. Dorothy and Larry enjoyed camping with the Good Sam's Club and traveling to spend time with their children and grandchildren. Larry and Dorothy took several trips to Louisiana to visit Larry's family. Dorothy was a wonderful cook, excellent seamstress, knitter, and enjoyed crocheting doilies as well. Her daughters were the loves of her life. She was always proud of them and all of her grandchildren and always shared their latest accomplishments with her friends and other family members. Dorothy aged gracefully and could always pass for a much younger version of herself. She and Larry hosted many family dinners, where you could always expect an abundance of delicious food and the thermostat to be set equal to sultry summer temperatures. It was always best to dress in layers. She outlived all but her two youngest sisters, Lois Beeman and Penny Neely. Dorothy is preceded in death by her husband, Larry, her parents, George & Helen Schneider, siblings, Pauline Truax, infant brother Edward Anthony, Marilyn Asmussen, Phyllis Beckwith, Helen Buzzard, Joseph Schneider, and Jim Schneider. She is survived by her children, Jan Biram of Palisades WA, Sandy (Larry) Hendrickson of Cathlamet WA, her grandchildren Julie (Bud) Streeter of Palisades WA, Shawn Biram of Palisades WA. And Kara (Paul) Boren of Vancouver, WA., Kali (Jonathan McClung) Hendrickson of Poulsbo WA, great-grandchildren Shelby (Taylor) McDonald of Palisades, WA, Brock (Miranda) Streeter of Moses Lake, WA, Kelsey Streeter of Palisades WA and Kiley (Taylor) Duby of Arizona, Also surviving are greatgrand children: Skylee & Aubree Boren, Denim Duby, and Stella Streeter, and sisters Lois Beeman and Penny Neely. Step-children Dianna Michaels, Dennis Philmon, Sharon Holland and Leslie Philmon. We want to thank her niece, Connie Friebus and Bill Tugaw, nephew Joe Truax, niece Annette Simmons, and sister Lois Beeman, because without them Dorothy could not have resided at home until her death. A memorial service will be held at a later date.
