Funeral Services are planned for January 31, 2026, at the First Presbyterian Church in Baker City, Oregon. Service details will be announced once confirmed.

With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of our beloved mother and grandmother, Edna E. Harrell, who peacefully passed away on January 14, 2026, surrounded by her children, grandchildren, and her soon-to-be great-grandchild.
At 88 years old, Edna was a familiar and cherished presence at every Production Sale, warmly welcoming everyone at the Annual event with coffee, donuts, and a genuine smile. She was generous, sharp-minded, deeply loving and had a tremendous sense of humor. She treasured time spent with her friends, working in her garden, and attending every family gathering. Edna never missed a family sporting event or her “next grand adventure.” She was always there, front and center, smiling with pride and excitement.
She will be missed every day for the profound difference she made to everyone she met. Her absence will be felt throughout the year, but the legacy she built will live on for generations.
