Agnes A. "Jackie" Ross Remus, 92, of Beaverton, Ore., formerly of Miles City, passed away on Thursday, April 21, 2012, at Gracious Care Living facility. Prior to living in Beaverton she lived at the Prairie Tower in Billings for 17 years.

Mrs. Remus was born on Nov. 27, 1919, in Terry to Harold and Jessie Dersham. Her mother died when Mrs. Remus was 11 years of age and her father married Helen Dersham, who was the teacher at their school. They lived on a ranch in Terry.

After high school, Mrs. Remus went to beauty school and became a hair stylist. She owned and operated her hair salon in her home for many years.

She married Mr. Hardesty in 1936 and had one son, Gene, who died in 1997.

She married Johnnie Ross Sr. in October of 1942 in Forsyth. They were married for 20 years. Her survivors include three sons and their families: Michael H. Ross of Miles City, Johnnie M. Ross Jr. (Virginia) of Beaverton, Ore., and Douglas Ross (Madeline) of Spokane, Wash.; six grandchildren; and six great-grandchildren.

She married Hugh Remus in Billings. Mr. Remus died in 1995.

Mrs. Remus loved her sons dearly and they were the center of her life. She would do anything to help them. She loved riding horses and had two horses, "Dusty and Buck," at the ranch that her father and step-mother owned. She loved to draw and paint and often drew pictures of her horses and the landscape around the ranch. She sang in the church choir in Miles City at the First Presbyterian Church.

She was preceded in death by her sisters, Norma McGraw and Eunice St. Arnaud; and her brother, Artie Dersham.

A family get together will take place later in July. She will be laid to rest near her parents in Terry.

Condolences may be sent to the family at John Ross, 11840 SW Bruce Dr., Beaverton, OR 97008.
