It is with heavy hearts we announce the death of our beloved mother and friend, Vidella Hecox.
Vidella was born on September 27, 1942, in Emmett, Idaho. Her family then moved to Portland, Oregon. She graduated from Jefferson High School in 1960. In 1962, she gave birth to one of her greatest joys, her daughter Julie, and later, after moving to California, the birth of her second daughter Christine.
She worked at Hughes Aircraft and after moving back to Portland, worked for the Post Office for many years, until retiring.
Mom was one of a kind. Full of life with a great sense of humor. She will be greatly missed.
She is survived by her sister Maryetta, her daughters Julie and Christine, her grandchildren Jacob, Gretta, and Heidi, and two great grandchildren Jace and Layla.
