Yvonne Hall Beldin Obituary Yvonne Hall Beldin of Othello, Washington, passed away April 22, 2019 at the age of 89. Yvonne was born in Spokane, Washington on September 1, 1929. She attended Spokane schools, graduating from John R. Rogers High School in 1947. She was employed at Interstate Telephone Co. (became General Telephone Co., now Verizon) in Spokane where she met the love of her life, S. James (Jim) Beldin. They were married June 17, 1951. In 1955, they moved to Wenatchee, Washington, where Jim continued to work for General Telephone Company, and Yvonne stayed home with their only child, Vonnie. Yvonne was a member and past president of the Wenatchee Eagles Auxillary 204; a life member of the Wenatchee Women�s Bowling Association and also served as its president for six years. She enjoyed volunteer service to many organizations � Red Cross blood drives, YMCA, nursing homes (briefly as a CNA and always visiting the elderly), Multiple Sclerosis Society, and the Girl Scouts. For several years, she did machine embroidery and monograming as a home business. She was always active in her church groups where she was a member of Trinity Methodist Church in East Wenatchee, and lastly Manito Presbyterian Church (where she also served as a Deacon) in Spokane. She became involved in Girl Scouts for her daughter, from Brownies through Senior Scouts. It was the beginning of family camping vacations, Scout campouts and Scout bus trips. Her family enjoyed being together in the outdoors, whether it was in the mountains by a cool stream, or an ocean beach, hiking and seeing what they could see. There were so many wonderful adventures together. A year after Jim passed away in 1983, she married Leslie A. Newman. They were divorced in 1998, and she returned to Spokane where she resided at Manito Gardens apartments and began a whole new chapter of her life, taking care of her mom, enjoying attending church and senior center activities, and as a volunteer for the Deaconess Hospital Sewing Guild. Her favorite hobbies were crocheting, reading and writing. She had several short stories and poems published in various publications, one of which was Nostalgia magazine.
