Karry Ann McEntire Hughes, BHS '66 (1948-1985)



Karry Ann McEntire
January 30, 1948 – July 23, 1985
Parents: Vernon Lee McEntire (1930–2018) and Joyce Yvonne Duke McEntire (1930–2018)

Today, we received the following from Thomas and Sharon McEntire via Alan Landros:

Thom's sister, Karry Ann McEntire Hughes, class of 1966, was born January 30, 1948, at Queen of Angeles hospital in Los Angeles. She moved to Burbank when she was 13 and went to John Muir and BHS. She married Michael Hughes from Texas and they had one son, Donald Hughes. In the late 70's they moved to Oregon.

Tragically, at age 37, Karry was killed in a motorcyle accident on July 16, 1985 in Salem, Oregon. Her husband, Mike, was driving the bike and a car did not see them. It turned left right in front of them and Mike didn't even have time to break. He was seriously injured but survived and unfortunately for Karry, she was thrown from the bike, broke her neck and died instantly.
