Julianne Hazeltine, 63, Kendrick


May 25, 2010

Julianne (Julie) Hazeltine, 63, of Kendrick, went home to the Lord Thursday, May 20, 2010, at St. Joseph Regional Medical Center in Lewiston. She was surrounded by her loved ones at the time of her death.

Julie was born Aug. 10, 1946, in Wichita, Kan., and was adopted by James and Jewel McManus of San Francisco. After the loss of Jewel, James met and married Angela Grange Cavagnaro-Jordon. Both of them had a daughter of their own and they had three more children together. The family was raised in San Mateo, Calif., around many aunts, uncles and extended family. Julie graduated from high school in 1964 and attended junior college.

In 1966, she joined the VISTA volunteer program and was sent to Lapwai to work with the Nez Perce Tribe. After a year with the VISTA program, she returned home for a couple of months before returning to Idaho, where she had fallen in love with the area and the people. She then was hired by Community Action Partnership of Lewiston. While working there she also began working part time at the Lewiston Veterinary Clinic and in 1968 she was hired full time.

While working at the clinic she met Dareld D. Hazeltine, when he brought in some cattle to be worked on. They were married June 9, 1971, and they lived in Asotin. In 1973, they were blessed with son Wyatt Todd. Then, in 1974, they moved to Kendrick to help with the family farm and run cattle. In 1976, they were surprised with daughter Jennifer.

While her children were growing up, she held part-time jobs around Kendrick. When her kids got older, she began to work at the Orchards Nursing Home and then she got on at the Latah County Jail as a cook. She retired from the jail in 2009, after 20 years of cooking for inmates. Julie was known by the officers as the "mean cook" and made the best chocolate chip cookies.

Julie enjoyed spending time with her family and spoiling her two grandchildren, going out RVing, reading, watching TV, and she was an avid professional bull riders fan.

She was involved with raising and showing miniature horses and Shetland ponies with her daughter and son-in-law. She was a past 4-H leader, Juliaetta-Kendrick Junior Miss committee member, and a founder of the Donna Frary Memorial Scholarship program. She also spent many years parking campers at the Latah County Fair.

Julie is survived by her husband, Dareld Hazeltine of Kendrick; son Wyatt Todd Hazeltine and partner Crystal Stover of Clarkston; daughter and son-in-law, Jennifer and Tom Perrigo of Kendrick; grandchildren James Dean and Wyatt Alexander Hazeltine, both of Clarkston; mother-in-law Elma Hazeltine and sister-in-law Laurine Hazeltine, both of Kendrick; sisters Victoria Reno, Angelea McManus, and Elizabeth Burnett and husband Steve, all of California; a brother, Edward McManus and wife Shannon of Massachusetts; along with several nieces, nephews and cousins.

Julie was preceded in death by her mothers, Jewel and Angela McManus; father James McManus; and several aunts, uncles and grandparents.

A celebration of life will be conducted at a later date. She will be buried at Bethany Memorial Cemetery outside of Kendrick.

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to the Donna Frary Memorial of the Juliaetta-Kendrick Junior Miss program or the Juliaetta-Kendrick Ambulance Fund. Malcom's Brower-Wann Funeral Home in Lewiston is in charge of the arrangements. Condolences may be sent at perrigo@tds.net
