Obituary: George Takami Matsuura was born Jan. 9th, 1916 in Oregon City, Oregon to parents Chotaro and Kame Matsuura. He was the seventh of nine children which included: Albert, Clifford, Genevieve, Martha, Marge, Sumako, Ruth and Alice. His folks farmed around Tigard, Oregon and then moved to Banks, Oregon in 1932 where they raised strawberries and a variety of vegetables. His father was the President of the Oregon Buddhist Church in Portland, Oregon. When there were funerals in Eastern Oregon, he would drive the Reverend there and became well acquainted with the Japanese families around Ontario, Weiser, and Vale. So... when WWII started and the order for Japanese were to move out of the coastal areas, his father decided to move the family to Eastern Oregon. Dad was left behind to finish the harvest of the farm. harvest, he had a hard time getting a travel permit from the Western Defense Command and had to hire a lawyer to get the permit to travel to Ontario to join the family. On the day that all Japanese were being evacuated, his permit to travel was approved. were not allowed to drive the Columbia River highway because they were not allowed to go near the Bonneville Dam. There were five family members and two friends in one family pickup and a passenger car. could only take as many belongings as the pickup could hold and had to leave the rest behind. arriving safely in Ontario, they began farming around Vale where they lived in tents until after the harvest.

In 1943, he began farming in the Weiser area. It was there that he met his future wife, Nellie Hamada, while she was on work release from the Minidoka Internment Camp. were married on 3rd 1944. In 1946, they moved to Fruitland Idaho where they would live for close to 50 years and raise their two daughters Marcia and Peggy. Dad raised onions, alfalfa seed, cherries and apples. He even had fun with cutter bees which had Mom shaking her head at times! He was a hard worker, rising early and taking a 10 min. power nap on the floor after lunch and working until dusk. Vacations in those days were trips to Parkdale, Oregon during off season to see our family which created memories we cherish to this day. He would also throw in fishing trips that Mom so enjoyed. All he would say is Wanna go fishing? and in less than 15 minutes she would have lunch packed ready to go with a big smile on her face. Dad had the uncanny knack of being able to unravel any bad knot that we kids would manage to put in our fishing lines, as well as releasing all of our snags. We wonder how he managed to get any fishing in at all himself.

retirement he continued to grow a productive garden, several fruit trees and beautiful flowers. If you knew George, you knew of his huge hibiscus flowers that were featured in the newspaper and shared with many friends. When he was 70, he took up golfing and enjoyed many outings with his buddies. He, also, became interested in the stock market and enjoyed researching and buying stocks. Up until just a week ago, Dad sat on the couch every day and wrote in a notebook what each of his stocks was doing that day. He made frequent visits to see Kerry and Heather at E.D Jones to get advice.
Dad had a passion for music. He had quite the collection on CDs. Classical, Jazz, Broadway music, Bocelli, Frank Sinatra - just to name a few. Dad would frequently be found humming or singing a tune while doing anything. Many of his friends and family may remember him for getting up and singing a song at family gatherings or at his friends birthday or anniversary celebrations. Among those may have been Stardust, My Way, What a Wonderful Life, or Clementine. A memory that Kristin and Jed will cherish forever is when Dad sang Beautiful Dreamer at their wedding reception. Before he sang, he told them that it was a song that mom loved. Eight years later, Kristin says people still remember and mention that about her grandpa singing at her wedding.

Dad would write jokes or quotes in his little notebooks that he kept in his shirt pocket. He also had a special folder labeled Jokes that he would refer to if he were going to a special function. He never left unprepared to tell a joke if given the opportunity. When we were reading through them this week, we found this one that made all of us laugh and smile: If I knew I was going to live this long, I would have taken better care of myself!

At each Matsuura family reunion, Dad would joyously hold out his arms to each niece and declare oh, my favorite niece!! and would receive a hug. He did this to all the nieces as they would come in the room, much to the amusement of us all! And each niece in return would always announce themselves to him as your favorite niece. A wonderful family joke! Our reunion is coming up in 6 weeks and we assure each of you that yes, you are his favorite niece!

Aside from the many hours of managing the farm, Dad was active in this Buddhist Temple. From the beginning of its existence he served on numerous committees and attended many activities, contributing and donating his time in any way that he could. He was also very proud to be a member of the Fruitland Lions Club. Even when he moved to Payette, he remained in the Fruitland club. Year after year, you could find him helping color and hide Easter eggs for the kids Easter egg hunts, volunteering at the Fruitland schools giving eye sight tests, or cooking barbecued chicken continued...

A prior hobby in her life, she was an incredibly talented seamstress making clothes for both herself and her family. She was a dedicated and loving mother. With her primary love language being Acts of Service, she would do her best to ensure the happiness and wellbeing of her two daughters.

The third of five children, Juji was born on Aug. 30, 1918 on the family farm in Green Lake, WA near what is now the University of Washington campus in Seattle to Jusaburo and Shie Tomoda Matsumura. Soon after, the family moved to a small farm in nearby Sunnydale, now Sea-Tac International Airport, where Juji grew up helping out with the farm work and developing what was to become a lifelong passion for fishing. Juji graduated from Highline High School and soon after the outbreak of WWII Juji and his family, in the parlance of Japanese Americans at the time, went to camp. were initially evacuated from Auburn, WA to the Pinedale Assembly near Fresno, CA. Later Juji, his parents and siblings were transferred to the Tule Lake Internment Camp in Northern California and finally to Heart Mountain Internment Camp in Wyoming for the duration of the war. Juji obtained a work pass and found employment on local farms. the war the Matsumura family re-settled in Ontario where Juji worked in the fields and sheds packing fresh onions, potatoes, and lettuce. In Dec. of 1950 Juji married Fujie, Fudge Hashimoto at the Ontario Womens Club on SW 1st St. In the early 1950s with Fudges support, Juji began farming around Fruitland, ID, always being certain to leave enough time between cultivating onions and changing water on the mint, for fishing expeditions with his buddies, especially Art Hamanishi. Wind, rain, sleet, snow.there was no trout or crappie safe from these two intrepid fishermen. By the time he retired, Juji had eventually become a partner in Idaho Mint Co., in New Plymouth and Treasure Valley Produce in Nyssa and had moved with Fudge from Ontario to a small farm south of Fruitland. During his life Juji had the opportunity to travel to Hong Kong and Korea and twice to Japan to visit the hometown of his parents in Kumamoto on the south island of Kyushu. In his retirement Juji continued his aquatic pursuits with several adventures to Alaska to fish for king salmon on the remote Nushagak River near Bristol Bay. He also cultivated an extensive garden during the summers, providing fresh fruits and vegetables for family and friends and in the spring and fall he often ventured into the forests of Idaho, Oregon and Washington to pursue the even more elusive morel and matsutake mushrooms. One of the periodic highlights of Jujis life was the bi-annual Okazaki-Matsumura Family Reunion held in various locations around the Northwest where he re-connected with his extensive family network. An extremely quiet man never given to emotional gestures, Juji never-the-less held his family with deep regard.

Juji is survived by his son, Howard of Ontario; nephews, Larry Matsumura (Diane) and Jerry Matsumura (Brenda) of Ontario; little sister, May Okazaki of Boise; and many beloved nieces and nephews in Washington, Oregon, Idaho, and Utah. He was preceded in death by his parents, wife Fudge, daughter-in-law Heesa, sister Setsuko and brothers Juro and Bob.

Jujis family would like to extend their thanks to Heart & Palliative for their kind support and to his special caregivers Consuelo and Alicia.
