Obituary:
Long time Scio resident from 1957 till present, and matriarch of the John Clark family, Bonnie (Hasty/Clark) Foster, has changed her address last Sunday (Dec 11, 2005). Her new residence is in Heaven with a long list of friends, family and her first husband John E. Clark.
The main focus of her life were her seven children, whom she was sole support for following the accidental drowning death of John Clark in 1959. She met John in Birmingham, Alabama, during the Second World War, and fell in love enough to follow him to Oregon in 1952. They eventually settled in Scio, Oregon, in the fall of 1957, with their four children Tony D, Johnny L., Mary P (Clark) Brown, Manuel (Bill) W, followed later by Charlene G (Clark) Miller, Ronald (Ronny) D, and Sister Sharon A (Clark) Borchard.
Mom worked at the Stayton cannery and with the help and constant support of her sister-in-law Louise Verley and family, she somehow managed to feed and cloth her seven children. Since there were already seven kids in our family and four cousins living next door, it was only natural that each one of us have at least one friend over at any given time, feeding time was a real combat situation and their were many causalities and injuries. Mom was loved by many of our friends, and our door was always open. The story goes that at one supper there were all our family plus a few extra, which was not uncommon, and after supper, we questioned one another about one particular guest, and to our amazement none of us knew who he was. Mom's only comment was, "I hope he got enough to eat."
Mom is now in her new heavenly home with her parents, Claudy Wesley Hasty and Wencie Ella (Vick) Hasty and brother, Cecil Lenard Hasty, William Claudy (WC) Hasty, Maxwell D Hasty. She is survived by her Brother Charles Wesley Hasty, sisters Lois Berneidia Hasty (Morgan), Gladys (Polly) Naomi (Hasty) Hill, Margaret Louise (Hasty) Pope. My mother was blessed with a very rich legacy, including 23 grandchildren, 37 great grandchildren with great great grandchildren to follow soon. She was Mom to many and friend to all.
A celebration of her graduation to her new home will be at a later date, most likely in the late spring and will be announced in newspapers here and in Thomasville, Alabama. All friends and relatives are encouraged to come and join us in celebrating Mom's new home.
