Mary Joslin Obituary
Mary Viola Joslin was born in Jefferson Oregon on October 30th, 1938, to Worth (Buck) & Verdell (Jackie) Shoop. Mary was the oldest of 8 and over 50 foster siblings. She was married to Robert Danielson who passed away in 1989 and Autrey Joslin, her loving partner for over 30 years. Mary had 3 children: Becky Littrell (Steve), Julie Williams (Fred) & Todd Danielson (Sheila).
Mary enjoyed crafting, porcelain dolls, fried chicken, double mint gum, singing with her sisters, the beach, playing keno, her iPad, folded half peanut butter sandwiches, listening to The Gaither's, reading the bible, and spending precious moments with her family.
She loved her family in a special way that no one could replicate. Even if you weren't blood related, she too was your Gams.
Mary wasn't ordinary, she was a kind soul who loved big, loved true, and loved special. We are all truly blessed to have known and loved her. Mary is survived by her siblings: Marly, Maddy, Gerry, Shari, Stacy, and Tony. Children: Becky, Julie, & Todd. 8 grandchildren, 13 great grandchildren, 1 great-great grandchild and 2 grand-pups (Stella & Grover). Mary was proceeded in death by her brothers Blaine & Mitchell Shoop.
There will be a Celebration of Life on Sunday, September 28th, 2025, at 1:00 pm at Greenway Estates' rec room located at 450 SE La Creole Dr. Dallas, OR 97338.
