Mitsui Hayes
Mitsui "Junie or Junko" Hayes, 78, died March 5, 2010, at her home of a heart attack. A service will be at 2 p.m. Friday, at Dakan Funeral Chapel, 504 S. Kimball Ave., in Caldwell. Pastor George Greenwood will officiate.
Junie was born March 13, 1931, in Kuratsu City, Saga Prefecture, Japan, to Zennotsuke and Kiyono Matsuo. After surviving WWII she was married and moved to Idaho in 1956. Her son Tony was born in 1958.
Mitsui worked at Glen L. Evans Fish Fly factory until it closed and then began working at Simplots, and worked there until she retired in 1993.
She enjoyed hunting, fishing, camping, motorcycle riding, and working in the yard and garden.
Three words that sum up Mom's character would be perseverance, generosity and "Gambatte!" which means "Do your best!" in Japanese.
Two of Mom's proudest moments were when she passed her test to become a citizen of the U.S.A. and when she taught herself how to drive and got her license.
She will be missed greatly by her family and everyone who knew her.
Mitsui is survived by her son Tony and daughter-in-law Trish, four grandchildren and three great-grandchildren .
