ODF provides Pike Road Fire wrap-up T

he Pike Road Fire has not expanded its footprint on Tillamook County since Friday morning, Sept. 11, and now is 100 percent contained. The fire started about 10:50 p.m. Monday, Sept.

7, in the Pike Road area and the cause remains under investigation.

Steady and strong east winds gusting to more than 40 miles

per hour pushed the fire into the Vaughn and Murphy Creek drainages. From Sept. 7-9, the fire grew explosively, and then slowed to a now mapped 301 acres, the largest fire in Tillamook County in the last 40 years. The change in reported acres from 220 to 301 acres is due to more accurate mapping that was just completed.

Fighting the fire began immediately, with available firefighters from all of Tillamook County’s Fire Districts and the Oregon Department of Forestry. Usually a fire of this complexity and size and threatening structures would warrant an outside incident management team and as Ed Wallmark, protection unit forester, remembers it “we would have

called an outside team but they just weren’t available so we made up our own and got it done.”

A big part of the success of stopping the Pike Road Fire was utilizing a special Tillamook resource: experienced loggers with heavy equipment. Loggers made themselves available and a coordinated plan was developed by the Department of Forestry that

he evacuation center at the Tillamook County Fairgrounds 4-H building was closed after the weekend of Sept. 12-13 and donations are not being accepted at this time.

The Pike Road Fire has not grown since Friday, Sept. 11, and is 100 percent contained, ODF reported Thursday, Sept. 17.

The fire was mapped at 301 acres, the largest fire in Tillamook County in the last 40 years.

The Pike Fire began Sept. 7 in the Pike Road/ Doughty Area.

A small garage was lost, but no known residences. The north side of Lincoln City had been evacuated and some of their residents had taken shelter in Tillamook.

Fairgrounds Manager Camy VonSeggern said all evacuees have either returned home or found shelter closer to their residence.

“The fairgrounds does still have evacuated horses and provid-

ing help to those families that need it,” VonSeggern said.

Justin Aufdermauer, president/CEO of the Tillamook Chamber of Commerce, said the chamber worked in coordination with the Tillamook County Sheriff’s Office to be a cash donation site. They have used cash donations to fill needs at the firefighter meal site that were not filled by donation, as well as cover loss of families’ refrigerated and frozen food from power outages.

“We are still getting periodic requests for assistance, however, the need has not been overwhelming,” Aufdermauer said.

Aufdermauer added that once the local needs have dissipated, the chamber would look to move the remaining funds to the PNW Fire Relief, which is a locally formed nonprofit that have raised over $15,000 to assist with local and Pacific Northwest relief.

Rockaway Beach Lions Club hosts SOLVE beach cleanup over weekend T

Hilary Dorsey Staff Writer

he Rockaway Beach Lions Club hosted a beach cleanup Saturday, Sept. 19. The event was part of SOLVE Oregon’s annual Beach & Riverside Cleanup and the International Coastal Cleanup, a worldwide effort to keep our beaches healthy.

Organizer Mark Fiebig said the cleanup had 30 volunteers on the beach: seven youth and 23 adults.

Thirteen volunteers had originally signed up online on SOLVE’s website.

“Typically we would have 70-90 people,” Fiebig said.

An estimated 400 pounds of trash were collected, Fiebig added. This Jerry Standfill and Bob Dempster, inside stop for a photo is about half of with other Lions ready to get to work.

he Oregon Department of State Lands (DSL) announced Friday, Sept. 11, that they have decided to have Facebook’s hazard analysis, conducted

by ERM-West, Inc. and peer reviewed

by Geosyntec Consultants, Inc., independently reviewed. The analysis was prepared in response to the drill break that occurred on April 28, during the drilling operation for the Jupiter subsea cable system in Tierra Del Mar. “We don’t yet know who will do that, so no ETA yet on when we may accept the analysis as final,” DSL Communications Manager Ali Ryan Hansen said of the independent review.

Edge Cable Holdings, LLC, a subcontractor for Facebook, notified DSL on April 28 of the broken drill pipe, which resulted in drill tooling and drilling mud abandoned at a depth of 50-70 feet below the seafloor.

According to the hazard analysis, “there are currently no adverse environmental, scenic, recreational or economic impacts resulting from the drill break or presence of remaining materials to the surrounding environment and result in future impacts.”

Kevin Salvadori, director of Network Investments at Facebook, said in a previous article that when the incident occurred, the team recovered as much as they could.

In August, DSL notified Edge Cable Holdings LLC of actions needed to comply with the terms of their communications cable easement agreement.

Abandonment of equipment following a drill pipe break resulted in Edge Cable effectively storing equipment under the Oregon seafloor, which was not allowed under their easement agreement.

DSL stated in an update that DSL and Edge Cable have agreed on an amendment to the easement agreement.

The amendment includes: a $250,000 payment to DSL; increasing the required surety bond from $20,000 to $100,000; notice requirement for any future breaks or accidents; and providing DSL with plans for drill break avoidance and response, as well as a cable construction plan.

Edge Cable intends to submit an application for an encroachment easement, DSL added. An encroachment easement would allow the abandoned equipment to remain beneath the seafloor.

“When received, the application will be reviewed by DSL staff for completeness,” DSL said. “If the application is determined to be complete, it will be circulated for review and comment.”

Trevor Taylor, stewardship section manager for the Oregon Parks and Recreation Department (OPRD), said during an OPRD commission meeting Wednesday, Sept. 16, that at this point, both DSL and OPRD are coordinating a response to the drill break. Edge Cable’s permit with OPRD remains valid at this time.

Edge Cable is also requesting to drill a new bore hole, Taylor added.

“We’re requesting updated plans that the new bore hole will be in a different location,” Taylor said. “They’re proposing it be directly below the existing bore hole.”

Taylor said OPRD is preparing comments on Edge Cable’s analysis, as they

Face mask project delivers 2,500 masks to Neah-Kah-Nie School District Hilary Dorsey Staff Writer

The Tillamook County Face Mask Project, in partnership with the Tillamook Creamery, delivered 2,500

face masks to the NeahKah-Nie (NKN) School District on Sept. 2. Dylan James and Nicole Bringuel, of the Tillamook County Face Mask Project, delivered the masks.

The NKN School District said via social media that the donation is approximately 500 hours of volunteer time. Bringuel said volunteers, from Manzanita to Hebo, worked around the clock to get the masks done by September.

Tillamook Creamery had also donated masks to the face mask project, which made the 2,500 mask delivery possible.

Bringuel said the face mask project delivered 500 masks to NKN for their graduation. All masks were in the school colors.

The school district thanks the Tillamook County Face Mask Project, Tillamook Creamery, Hurd’s Upholstery and more.

“We’re having to reevaluate things as they come up,” Bringuel said.

The face mask project will also be delivering masks to the Tillamook School District. Schools in south Tillamook County are

Gardening Matters

Taking time to observe

GARDENING MATTERS CARLA ALBRIGHT

lives that we fail to look at the myriad of life forms that surround us. And if you want an exercise to take your mind off of pandemics, tourists, and protests, I have a great one for you.

Find a comfortable spot in the garden. One where you can place a chair and sit quietly for an hour. It can be in sun or shade, your preference, as long as you can relax and just observe.

If you have a spider web in your field of vision, that’s even better because they are always interesting to

watch. Look at the ground around you. If you look long enough, a troop of ants or beetles will walk across your site line. Perhaps a rubber boa or a garter snake? They are harmless and eat lots of insects and slugs. Or maybe you will see a hummingbird flying by to check you out. House flies, butterflies, wasps or – if you are lucky – bees will stop by. Some creatures are more curious than others and by sitting still, they will

come to you.

We are used to attracting birds to our gardens, and place feeders and baths to accommodate them. But by placing a flat dish with some sandy mud in it, you can bring butterflies.

A water source on the ground is good for drawing toads, too. Toads can be invaluable to keep down slugs and insects in the garden. So placing an old, cracked terra cotta pot upside down over some organically enhanced soil will give them a perfect spot to burrow under and hide during the heat of the day.

But remember not to use commercial lawn or garden fertilizers or insecticides around your toad houses because the chemicals they contain can be deadly to toads. (As I was researching for this column, I found out so much cool information on frogs and toads that it will take up an entire column. So watch for that one in a couple of weeks.)

Besides watching for garden visitors, be sure to listen as well. I find closing my eyes removes a lot of distractions. What do you hear? I guarantee it will include bird song, but what else? Rustling in the fallen leaves will indicate a creature slipping by. Maybe a chipmunk or squirrel. If its evening, you might hear crickets or even feel the bats swoop by. That’s using all your senses.

Mostly, by taking some time in the garden to do nothing but observe the miniature habitat that surrounds you, you will come to appreciate your own personal world a little more. Not a bad thing in these uncertain times.

Tillamook County at 44 positive COVID-19 cases Hilary Dorsey Staff Writer

The Tillamook County Board of Commissioners held their weekly community update meeting Friday, Sept. 18, through teleconference and discussed COVID-19 updates, resources for depression and anxiety, and the aftermath of local fires.

“Our PPE supply is good,” Adventist Health Tillamook President Eric Swanson said.

Tillamook County Community Health Centers Administrator Marlene Putman said if you are feeling anxiety or depression, connect with resources. You can reach out to your behavioral health or primary care provider at the health center or connect with the Tillamook Family Counseling Center.

The county is at 50 total cases with three new positive cases as of Sept. 14; six presumptive, and 44 positive, Putman said. Age ranges for the three new cases are 50-59, 60-69 and 70-79. There are six active cases and 44 closed cases.

The health center reports that two people are currently hospitalized out of the county with COVID-19 related illness this week.

There have been zero COVID-19 related deaths in the county and 2,847

negative tests.

Tillamook Family Counseling Center Executive Director Frank HannaWilliams said if you have concerns about anxiety and depression, please reach out. You can reach the counseling center at 503842-8201 or 1-800-9622851. Hanna-Williams said they were able to provide support to some Lincoln County residents when they evacuated to Tillamook County.

Gordon McCraw, incident command and emergency management, said as of Thursday, Sept.

17, the Oregon Department of Forestry called the Pike Road Fire 301 acres and 100 percent contained.

This was one of the biggest fires the county has seen and no homes were lost, McCraw added.

He said it was an honor to

lead the incident command team. The community also stepped up in countless ways. A shelter was open at the Tillamook County Fairgrounds and most of the individuals sheltered there were from Otis.

Oregon Rep. David Gomberg said the fires at the north edge of Lincoln County were close to Tillamook County. There are still large areas on the northern edge of Lincoln County that are closed.

“The pictures are just heart wrenching,” Gomberg said of the fires that took place throughout Oregon. “There are entire communities that have just been reduced to ash and twisted metal.”

e had an unusual visitor to our garden last week. A very unique moth landed on our garage door and with a little bit of research we determined it to be a rusty tussock moth (Orgyia antiqua).

It had a lighter colored strip across the folded wings and two white spots that looked like eyes. The females are wingless and spend their short lives attached to her cocoon where she lays her eggs. The caterpillars emerge in early spring and start feeding on a wide range of deciduous trees like birch, oak and willow, and shrubs like huckleberries and roses. The caterpillars are active between May and September when they progress to the adult stage.

Since the adults do not feed, they have a very short life span. The females lay their eggs on their cocoons placed in the branches of a host tree and the eggs winter over until the following spring.

But as interesting as this little moth was, I was more taken by the fact that it was named by Carl Linnaeus, the Father of Modern Taxonomy, in 1785. That took me by surprise because although I knew Linnaeus had given Latin names to most of our plants and animals in the late 1700’s, I never thought about all those insects he named as well. And to make it even more relevant, Linnaeus named the rusty tussock moth two years before Captain Robert Grey sailed into Tillamook Bay. So these little moths have been around for at least 235 years, and no doubt centuries before that.

Sometimes we are so caught up in our day-to-day

Chamber Chatter Ashley Rushing Communications Manager Tillamook Area Chamber of Commerce

Our office is getting back into the swing of things, which means, we have some news to share. With school starting and fall right around the corner, we knew we needed a little something fun for our locals. We couldn’t be more thrilled to bring together a new event to our community, Treats -n- Sweets.

Treats -n- Sweets is a family-based event for children that is set to be a great outing for local families during such a crazy time.

Covdi-19, wildfires, and the start of distance learning has had many parents and children on edge and it’s our mission to provide an afternoon of fun and excitement to bring back some normalcy.

Letters to the editor Hooray for our teachers!

Everyone has been asked to adapt to great changes this year. Parents and students have had to learn and adapt to a very different type of school. None of this is easy. I’ve been teaching online courses at the college level for over a decade, and I can tell you that our k-12 public teachers have been asked to do the impossible. They have been asked to make the transition to comprehensive distance learning in an unreasonably short timeframe and make it sparkle.

In the online classroom, the bulk of the work of teaching is behind the scenes. The amount of prep work that goes into designing systems and designing learning materials is not visible to most of us, but it

is a huge undertaking. Under normal circumstances, school districts would take years to carefully study, research, and test the learning systems they would adopt. They would use this time to work out the kinks and design systems that students and families could easily interact with. Our teachers haven’t been given the luxury of time, and as a community we cannot expect the luxury of perfection or of ease.

I want to thank our teachers and administrators and let them know we see them, and we see the hard work they are doing.

Thank you! We know you are working long hours.

We know you are pushing yourselves to learn new technologies and then explain those technologies to us so that we can understand them, too. We know you love and care for

Our continuing focus on students and equity our kids. We love and care for you, too!

ur communities in Tillamook County have experienced tremendous challenges over the past six months, with the recent wildfires just one more thing we have dealt with recently. Since this challenge has impacted many of our students and even some of our staff, TBCC decided to push back our Fall Term start from September 21 to September 28 to give students time to get registered and ready to start classes. We do plan to have almost half of our classes this term face to face on campus, including our career-technical and science labs. We have been reopened since June 22 with some face to face classes this summer, and following a strict set of COVID guidelines, things have gone well keeping everyone safe in our building.

We also have new programs starting this fall, including a Healthcare Administration associate degree program and a Basic Healthcare Certificate, which can be earned while still in high school. Also starting new this fall will be an Agricultural Technology associate degree program, which combines animal handling skills with manufacturing and welding skills. There are great job opportunities for graduates

I want to go back to a time when we didn’t have to wear these masks.

When a mask on someone either meant it was Halloween or someone was really sick. Back to a time where a mask didn’t instantly label you and sum up your entire belief system before they even knew who you were as a human. What I really miss is seeing people’s mouths.

The subtle nuances in how my coworkers and friends might purse their lips, give a smirk, or open wide for a big, hearty laugh. Eyes are great, but I miss seeing mouths.

I want to go back to the days when we unlocked the doors of the track!

Thank you to our local heroes I’ve never been one to write letters to the paper before, but a situation has arisen that should be brought to everyone’s attention.

We have in our cominstitution, we are focusing our efforts on creating and sponsoring opportunities for the community to come together and learn from each other. To this end, we are offering a community education course that begins Sept. 25 titled, ‘Diversity Equity and Inclusion’ in the workplace. To register visit our website.

We sponsored showings at the Tillamook Coliseum of Just Mercy in August to

library every day and were greeted by several people who just couldn’t wait to come inside. Maybe they had homework to do or some important research to conduct. Perhaps they were just wanting to read the newspaper or grab the latest bestseller that arrived on hold for them.

For some, it was a quick grab-and-go mission on their way somewhere else.

Others sought out their favorite chair for a long day of settling in, reading and trying not to nod off in the comfort of the library.

I want to go back to a munity, more good, caring people than I thing anyone could have ever imagined.

Last week we nearly lost our home to the Pike Fire.

The people who came to protect us, were nothing less than amazing. I’d have a hard time naming all of the volunteers and their organizations. You know who you are; we say, to our heroes, Thank You! Al and Carol Fisher Tillamook raise awareness of systemic racism in our country. We are also holding a community planning event on October 7 at 7pm to chart our course. If you are interested in participating, please contact equityandinclusion@ mail.tillamookbaycc.edu for more information and to receive the Zoom link for the discussion. We invite you to join us in building a better future for all residents of Tillamook County.

time when the library was filled with little kids. Back when I could gather a small herd of children for a storytime, all crammed into a room together to sing songs, share some stories, and not be at all surprised if we parted with a hug. We didn’t sociallydistance anything then... never dreamed of it. Oh sure, there was “please give me some space”, but that was just when someone was annoying me, and the thought that they might be giving me a deadly disease was the furthest thing from my mind.

I want to go back to a time when there were hundreds of things I loved about the library. Ukulele classes, crafting events, birthday parties in the community room, tutoring sessions, the pastor writing his sermon, the clickity-click sound of

people on the public computers, teens giggling in the teen area after school, school children on field trips to the library, and so much more. I even miss going in to tidy up the kid’s area after an extrarambunctious visit.

I want to go back to a

time when I could write a piece like this and believe the person reading it would not interject one of two political sides into it.

It would be really nice to just go back. And we will. Eventually. For us at the library, it can’t come soon enough.

arl Amos Higdon was born Sept. 23, 1935, in Vona, Colorado, to Lloyd and Vera Winfrey Higdon, and he passed away at home on Sept. 10, 2020, in Cloverdale, Oregon, at the age of 84, after a long battle with Parkinson’s/Lewy Body disease.

Carl’s family came to Oregon to escape The Dust Bowl when he was one year old, backing over the continental divide in a Model T Ford to keep the gravity-flow gasoline feeding the engine. His family settled outside of Newberg, Oregon, where he grew up picking fruit, playing hooky, and running wild. At the age of 16, Carl headed to the coast with a friend looking for work. He convinced Oral Ray, who had a dairy farm on Meda Loop near Cloverdale, and a herd of pure-bred guernseys that yes, he “knew how to milk cows.”

As was often the custom in those days, Carl lived with the family while working on the farm. He later took a job in Tillamook working on the Hans Leuthold dairy, but he kept going back to visit the Ray family, as he had become attached to the farmer’s daughter Eleanor!

Carl found two of the greatest loves of his life on the

coast, his wife Eleanor and his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. He was known to say, “If I hadn’t found the Lord, I’d have either ended up in jail or dead!” He and Eleanor were married on September 1, 1956, in Oretown, Oregon.

Carl served in the army, rising to the rank of sergeant. His service included 17 months in Japan, where he was joined by his wife Eleanor, and where their first son was born. When his enlistment ended, he and Eleanor returned to the family dairy farm on Meda Loop. When Oral retired in 1970, Carl and Eleanor took over the farm and worked side by side running “Sunshine Acres” and raising their family.

Carl enjoyed hunting and fishing, and he and Eleanor could always be found at their children’s school events. He was a faithful member of Oretown Bible Church. Carl and Eleanor retired in 2001, when their son Lloyd took over the farm. Today, two of Carl’s great-grandchildren are growing up on the farm, the sixth generation of the family to live there.

Carl is survived by his wife Eleanor Higdon of Cloverdale, Oregon; their three children, Lloyd Higdon of Cloverdale, Oregon; Laura Combe of Imbler, Oregon; and Lee Higdon of Bunia, Democratic Republic of the Congo; 11 grandchildren; and 11 great-grandchildren.

A memorial service will be planned and announced at a later time. Donations may be made either to the OHSU Brain Institute, or to The Gideons International.

Ruth Lavon Blanchard

Feb. 20, 1931 - Sept. 18, 2020

R

uth “Lavon” Blanchard quietly passed away on Friday, Sept. 18, 2020, at Nehalem Valley Care Center, with family at her side, after a recent cancer recurrence.

Lavon was born Feb. 20, 1931, after her parents traveled to Vallejo, California, to be with family for the birth. She always claimed to be a native Oregonian, despite the information on her birth certificate. They lived in Netarts for her early childhood years, then moved briefly to Nampa, Idaho, before returning and establishing their long-time home in Hemlock, south of Tillamook.

In 1948, Lavon graduated from Nestucca High School and was married that summer to Kenneth Emmert, of Sweet Home, Oregon. In the years that followed, they had two sons.

Lavon married William Kurtz, of Olympia, Washington, in 1961. After his death, she married John Blanchard, of Beaver, Oregon, where they lived from 1982 until his death.

After living several years in Junction City, Oregon, she moved back to Tillamook, residing at

Sheridan Square Senior Living, then Kilchis House Assisted Living, and finally Nehalem Valley Care Center before her death.

While not having the opportunity to attend college, Lavon developed excellent typing and secretarial skills, working early on at Roseburg Lumber in the 1950s, Tillamook Veneer in the late 1960s, Dammasch State Hospital in the 1970s, and the Nestucca and Netarts Fire District offices at the end of her career.

Lavon was also a selftaught musician, playing both piano and organ for church services and other events over the years. She was an avid cook, cake decorator, and seamstress.

Although having lived in many locations in Oregon and Washington, she treasured being able to be near the ocean and loved to observe its beauty. Her personal peace, however, came from her belief in and acceptance of Christ’s love, forgiveness, and promise of heaven, which she has now claimed.

Lavon was preceded in death by her parents, John and Ruth Hodgdon, her brothers John Hodgdon, Jr. and Donald Hodgdon, and all of her former spouses. She is survived by her sons, Kevin (Zelda) Emmert, of Dallas, Oregon, and Alan (Connie) Emmert, of Ketchikan, Alaska, as well as four grandchildren, two great-grandchildren, and numerous nieces and nephews.

A private family remembrance will be scheduled at a later time.

Mary Patricia ‘Pat’ Sears

May 6, 1923 - Sept. 18, 2020

J

ean (Trusty) Bailey, the last survivor of seven children in a longtime Tillamook family, has died. She lived in Tillamook for 94 years, working at Tillamook PUD, the Tillamook High School Guidance Department and the former Sears Catalog Store. For many years she was secretary for the Tillamook Pioneer Assoc. In 1999 she was Pioneer of the Year and during a year in the 1980s she was Tillamook Businesswoman of the Year.

She was very proud to be a founding member of the Tillamook High School Alumni Scholarship Fund and a board member of that group since its founding. The fund was established in 1991 at a reunion of the classes of 1941, 1942 and 1943.

Jean passed away on Sept. 18 at the age of 97.

She was the last living child of Sylvester and Nellie (Cooper) Trusty, the last living member of the Tillamook High School class of 1941, and the longesttenured member of the Tillamook United Methodist Church.

Nora Jean Trusty was born in a logging camp in the community of Lyle in Klickitat County, Washington, on May 6, 1923, the fifth child. By pre-arrangement with the local doctor, when her mother said she was ready to give birth, the family hung a lantern in their front window. The doctor saw the light from his house on a road below, came up and delivered Jean.

At the age of three, her family completed their move from Louisiana to the west coast when they moved from Lyle to Bay City. When Jean was age five, they moved to a former Methodist parsonage in Tillamook on the spot now occupied by the U.S. Post Office. All this movement was the result of her father’s career in sawmills. Sylvester (known as Vester) began working in sawmills when he was a small child, eventually retiring as Head Sawyer at Buehner Lumber in Tillamook in 1957.

By the time the family moved to Tillamook, there were seven Trusty children, after the addition of Jack and David.

Everything changed for the Trustys in 1934 when their mother Nellie died.

Jean was 11 years old. She went to live with her oldest sister, Esther Pangborn, her husband, Marvin, and their two little girls, Joanie and June. Vester moved the other children back to Bay City, but they were still a close-knit family. In later life the Trusty children often said the strength of their life-long bond had a lot to do with the untimely death of their mother.

After graduating from Tillamook High School as salutatorian and editor of the annual, Jean attended Oregon State College in Corvallis. She only attended for a few terms before she realized she could no longer afford college. Instead she took a test for the Farmers Home Administration, scored the highest of anyone in Oregon and ended up working for the FHA, first in Oregon City and a few months later in Hillsboro as the Office Manager. She had so little money in college that to get to Oregon City from Corvallis for her first FHA job, she had to borrow from her sister Esther to get on a bus with her one suitcase. Though her plans for a college degree were interrupted for a few decades, she made sure each of her four children graduated from college, then went back to school and got her own bachelor’s degree from Marylhurst University. In

her 50s she also learned to play the piano.

In 1945, Charles D. “Bud” Bailey returned from service during WWII. Jean came to Tillamook for a wedding and ended up meeting Bud and going on a date with him. He told her, “Don’t get any ideas. I’m playing the field.” They were married on October 26, 1946, in the Tillamook Methodist Church.

Jean was an active member of the United Methodist Church nearly her entire life. She started teaching Sunday school when she was a senior in high school.

She taught for more than 30 years. She was secretary to the Methodist Administrative Board for many years, served on several church committees, including a committee to build a new church, and helped organize bazaars, rummage sales and the church newsletter.

For many years she donated time to Senior Meals.

Jean worked as the assistant to Jack Madison, general manager of Tillamook PUD for about 20 years during which the Madisons and Baileys became close friends.

Though she was a strong early proponent of women’s rights, she was also proud to be “the woman behind the man.” She encouraged her husband to serve on the Tillamook City Council and later to run for the Tillamook County Commission where he served for eight years. He later became Deputy Director of the state Agriculture Dept., all of which he said would never have happened without the encouragement and council of his wife. One of the accomplishments of which both Bud and Jean were most proud was the effort that Bud led in the 1970s to contract with the Adventist Health organization to run the Tillamook County General Hospital and to pass a bond measure and secure federal grants to remodel it.

Jean was pre-deceased by her husband (in 1996) and siblings Esther Pangborn, James Trusty, Rhoda Sumner, Earmalee Hiersche, Jack Trusty and David Trusty. She also lost her eldest daughter Kim Harritt in 2016.

Jean will be remembered as a person of honesty, integrity and compassion.

She believed in hard work and education, and loved the Tillamook community.

She is survived by her son, David Bailey (Melanie), daughters Keleen Woelke (James) and Jennifer Chamberlain (John), son-in-law Robert Harritt, and grandsons Travis Harritt (Sally), Wade Harritt (Courtney), and Clint Harritt (Kara), seven great-grandchildren, and many nieces, nephews and other close family members.

Please make donations in lieu of flowers to: The Tillamook High School Alumni Scholarship Fund, PO Box 195, Tillamook, OR 97141.

The family plans a small private graveside serviceand an open memorial service next summer.

June 28, 1929 - Aug. 18, 2020

M

ary Patricia “Pat” Sears passed away on the morning of Aug. 18, 2020. She was at home with her daughter, Lois SearsPrince and son, David Sears.

She is survived by her sonin law, George Prince and daughter-in-law, Lisa Sears and three grandchildren, Callie Prince, Arica Sears and Austin Sears. Pat was born in Coquille, Oregon on June 28, 1929 to Jerimiah “Bob” John Geaney and Jessie Mae “Maymie” Geaney.

She was the eldest of three children, sister to Bob and John. Pat was raised on a ranch where she developed a passion for being outside, love of animals, gardening and an unparalleled work ethic. One would never find her lounging around doing nothing! Pat attended OSU in Corvallis to become a teacher. It was here that she made and kept life long friends. One of which invited to South Tillamook county to spend a weekend with a young man who had a house at the beach.

The weekend consisted of grueling hikes over the hills and a memorable boat ride down the Nestucca River in what would be considered small craft warnings today!

Despite all of this, Pat would eventually return to become the wife of Edwin G. Sears on September 25, 1954. They started their life together in Ed’s home in Tierra Del Mar. Ed’s brother, Bill Sears gave Pat some good advice about living so close to the ocean: when a storm high tide comes, open the front door and back door so the water will just flow through! It wasn’t a joke, it really did happen ! This may have been part of the reason when they were to build a new house, it would be on the hill overlooking the beach. In their early years of marriage the family left to pursue Ed’s career in the plywood industry. This would take them to Washington State and Louisiana.

They returned to their home in Tierra Del Mar and did not leave again. Pat stayed home with her children and continued her passion in her life, gardening. Lois and David remember their Mom going out to the garden after dinner until dark and their Dad yelling out the bathroom window if she wanted flood lights installed?! Pat loved to share her yard, plants and flowers with friends and fellow gardeners. Pat was involved in the Presbyterian church, local garden clubs, Connie Hansen Garden and school activities. Pat was always available to her kids and grand kids with her expertise in sewing costumes.

She was a great supporter of any of their school, 4-H, FFA, Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts activities.

Pat went back to school to upgrade her teaching credentials in the early 70s.

She became a remedial reading teacher at Beaver Grade School for several years. Her next adventure was to own and operate the “Summer House Flowers and Gifts” shop in Pacific City. She successfully ran the store until 1996. It had always been a dream to have her own business.

During this time, Pat became involved with a group of volunteers that started the Esther Milne Foundation. This foundation’s goal was to support women that wanted to go back to school for additional training. To raise money, the committee decided to host a garden tea in Pat’s garden. This became a very successful annual event.

The whole family, friends and volunteers pitched in to make the tea a success.

An annual gathering for a good cause Pat was always nervous about everything being perfect. The weather usually cooperated with sun and sometimes it rained but umbrellas were handed out.

Rain doesn’t stop gardeners!

One of many fun stories from the tea was when the grand kids pet goat had an altercation with a guest while parking her car! The goat was friendly but not where it was suppose to be!

Pat handled the situation with poise and a smile.

Pat enjoyed traveling. In 1997, she became a passenger on a cargo freighter .

One of 4 paying passengers, the frieghter left Spain, traveled through the Panama Canal onward to the final docking in Portland, Or. She also traveled to England to explore English gardens.

Pat enjoyed many other excursions with family and friends, always up for an adventure!

Pat’s final business venture during her late 80’s was being a super host through

Airbnb. As always, this venture was well thought out, organized and successful. Up to the very end, Pat had things to do! Gardening, painting, scrap booking and being with her family!

Her beloved garden will never have the love and care she provided it. Pat’s family miss her love and care beyond words.

She was predeceased by her husband, Edwin G. Sears and grandson, Douglas G. Sears.

At Pat’s request, a private graveside service was held Sept. 2, 2020 at Sunset Memorial Cemetery.

In memory of Pat, please consider a donation to the Esther Milne-Pat Sears Endowed Scholarship, Tillamook Community College.

T

he wildfires that exploded all over the state of Oregon at the end of Labor Day weekend were a sobering experience.

We were fortunate here in Tillamook County not to have had loss of life or homes (one garage burned), unlike other counties in Oregon. But “fortunate” is perhaps not the right word, as it was the quick action and determination of professional and volunteer firefighters, the loan of heavy equipment from local logging and other businesses, and financial assistance as well as food and water donated by local citizens and businesses that

helped turn the tide against the intense fire.

The Pike Road Fire broke out at 10:50 p.m. on Monday, Labor Day, and high winds caused it to spread quickly. Cape Meares volunteer firemen Mike Smith and Dave Audet were among the earliest responders and worked through the night to evaluate the size and location of the fire by driving on forest roads. Power lines were popping, trees were falling, the fire was roaring—what a terrifying experience that must have been! In addition to the Tillamook Fire District (which includes Station 73 in Cape Meares), other

ave you heard of the online Covid19 resource, AloneTogether. org? I visited their website last week. It has three broad sections: “Stay Covered” about personal safety during the pandemic, “Back to School Together” about pursuing or continuing education as Covid19 continues, and “Tips for Coping” which has five narrower subcategories embedded within it. Those subsections include a disaster distress helpline, a mental health toolkit, support for those who are grieving during Covid 19, supports for parents and a link to the Trevor Project, to prevent suicide among LGBTQ youth. I recommend scanning the site for content that can make a difference for you or for someone in your orbit.

e were in Bend, Oregon when these wildfires broke out throughout the Pacific Northwest. We hunkered down in the house, with towels by the doors to keep from breathing the nasty smoke. We kept thinking it would get better, but boy, they got worse. The goodness came out in people though. Folks were willing to expose themselves to the smoke to help others. We always drive through Hwy

after this weekend. Neskowin Farmers’ Market runs from 9 until 1 p.m. on Saturday at Neskowin Valley School on Slab Creek Road in Neskowin.

The first hour is reserved for Seniors and those with compromised health. Pacific City Farmer’s Market is open on Sunday and features offerings other than just food. Hours are 10 until 2 p.m. in the parking lot of South Tillamook County Library, which is located off Camp Street North of the flashing light

in Pacific City. Be patient, as both markets enforce protocols set in place to protect vendors & shoppers from Covid 19.

It’s not too late to take in a free “Mortgage Readiness” class online.

Tillamook County Habitat for Humanity has been sponsoring a free series of financial education classes to help households ready themselves for home ownership. Deborah DixonKrause, who is Community Engagement and Education Coordinator for TLC Bank, is the teacher.

Class runs from 5:30- 6:30 p.m. on Tuesday, September 29. For more information or to sign up, go to tillamookcountyhabitat.org or call 503-377-0204.

Well, sadly, things have changed forever; lives have been lost. I hope and pray that you and your families have been safe, and pray for all that haven’t fared so well.

I hope we never have to go through this again.

As soon as we could, we headed back home to

Rockaway Beach. Oh my gosh, the air was so much better. No more burning eyes and sore throat.

Shortly after our return we enjoyed some rain. I never thought I would appreciate rain. But I sure did, and I know many of you did too.

Events such as this are a real reminder of our good health and luck in our lives.

Appreciate every moment.

So, as we came into Tillamook from Bend, the first thing I did was to call

heavy equipment operators.

Olli Ollikainen, another Cape Meares volunteer fireman, returned to Cape Meares after the holiday weekend and joined Dave in continuing to fight the fire on Wednesday. By Saturday, the fire had burned 220 acres and was 25% contained. Blessed rain came on Monday, Sept. 14.

Interestingly enough, one of the structures Dave and Olli were assigned to protect on Wednesday turned out to be a rental house owned by Cape Meares residents Jack and Sue Drafahl. Dave and Olli used hand tools to beat out small fires that broke out around

the structure; embers in dry bark dust start fires quickly.

Other firefighters manned bulldozers to dig containment lines during the multiday effort. Dave stresses that the entire firefighting operation was a team effort; it was only because so many came together swiftly and competently that a significant disaster in Tillamook County was prevented. Thank you, one and all, for your hard work in keeping us, our homes and businesses safe!

Here in Cape Meares, there was a different sort of fire danger on Labor Day. Campers up in the woods near the lighthouse

trail had started a campfire, apparently ignorant of current fire danger and the forecasted high winds. An alert neighbor spotted them and told them to put out the fire, which they did. They departed shortly thereafter.

Cape Meares Emergency Task Force member Pete Steen reminds us that the next disaster could occur at any time, and, as is evident, we can have more than one disaster at a time! Sign up for Nixle alerts by texting your zip code to 888777 to receive updated information on evacuations and other emergency notifications. Stay safe, friends and neighbors.

Parenting, accessibly via Zoom video conference, will run on Tuesdays from 6-7:30 p.m. starting October 6 and running through November 6. The course provides parents and caregivers practical parenting skills and is led by trained professionals.

For more information, call Melissa, 503-842-8201, extension 276.

home. Yummy.

My fellow ukulele friend, Steve Tackett, told me about an amazing microphone that is reasonably priced. After my thorough three month online investigation of similar mikes, I decided on the Hotec wireless he told me about. I love it. Keep your eyes open. Perhaps this fall you will find Steve and myself performing at Simply Charming when the weather allows. I am ready for normal again. Perhaps this will be a step in the right direction.

My brother, Mike Hoyt’s pancreatic cancer roller coaster ride continues. And I thank the Lord for this ride. It keeps him with us.

His numbers are going up and down, and he has been

unable to have chemo for a while. But, in its absence; his numbers are gently improving. So, in all the darkness of late, there is a silver lining. I really love these silver linings. I will keep you up to date in future columns. Your prayers are very appreciated. And my brother thanks you from the bottom of his heart.

Well Koa, our Golden Retriever, got his loves and kisses from his girlfriend, Sue Wilson at Etcetera. He was so excited to see her; he licked her facemask right off of her face. I think the love was mutual though. Koa sniffs out ‘good people’ a mile away.

like to remind her that she was our 10-pound pumpkin.

All of my favorite fall things come out of the closet for October; my wool blankets and sweaters, and my black and red plaid hunting jacket with matching purse (but my boots don’t match...they’re just black). But you know, nothing says that fall is truly here, like cornstalks on my front porch. Yes it is September, but October will be here before you know it; and I want to be ready.

Bay City has some important events planned for October. Judy Maring sent this following announcement; and believe me, you won’t want to miss it. It reads in part: The Bay City Fire Department Appreciation Dinner is set for Friday, October 23rd (the time and location is yet to be decided). The dinner is in honor of our first responders; volunteer fire men and women of Bay City

Healthy snacks for on-the-go

Kasey Purcell Intern OSU

Extension Service

ow many times have you found yourself out and about and in need of a snack? For me it’s a lot. Now, how many times have you chosen an apple or maybe some nuts over the option of a bag of chips or a soda? For me it’s not often. I want a good healthy snack, but I have a hard time finding something that is enjoyable and tasty while also offering me the nutrition I need. Running into the store and grabbing the cheapest thing that sounds good seems so much easier. I get it! There must be a better way and there

H

is. Snacking is important - just make sure that when you are looking for snacks, you are looking for options that are high in fiber, contain lower sodium and less added sugars. This way you are consuming calories that will allow you to sustain energy until your next meal.

According to the International Food Information Council Foundation, about 97% of us snack at some point during the week. It is a common thing, and it is good for us to recognize it and why we are doing it.

There are many reasons we need snacks: • Needing energy • We often find ourselves tired as long workdays drag on and food can be a good resource to help us wake up.

• Boredom • If you find yourself bored, you may feel hungry.

• Thirsty • Our thirst receptors are very weak. This is why it is common for us to think we are hungry when actually we are just dehydrated.

• Emotional eating

Banana Oatmeal Cookies Recipe & Photo Source: https://www.foodhero.org/ banana-oatmeal-cookies Number of servings: 14 cookies Time for preparation (including preparation and cooking): 25 minutes Ingredients: 2 very ripe bananas 1 cup oats (quick or old-fashioned) ½ teaspoon cinnamon ½ teaspoon vanilla ½ cup raisins Directions: 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

2. In a medium bowl, mash bananas with a fork until mostly smooth.

3. Add oats, cinnamon, va-

nilla and raisins. Mix well.

4. Drop spoonful’s of dough onto lightly sprayed or oiled baking sheet.

Flatten with the back of a spoon or bottom of a drinking glass.

5. Bake 10 to 15 minutes.

Remove from oven and let cool before serving Notes: • Texture will be best when freshly made.

• Try dried cranberries or chopped nuts instead of raisins.

n FENCEPOST, from Page 8 Fire Department who have so freely given their time and life to our community during the Pike Road Fire. If you would like to volunteer to help by serving food (health cards are needed for handling food), being a greeter, setting up or cleanup, call Judy at (2534)222-2995 to sign up. They are also accepting financial donations for the purchase of food items. You can do so by buying a VISA card or by a check payable to Judy Maring (write Fire Dept. Appreciation in memo) and mailed to PO Box 3295, Bay City, OR 97107. For information call Judy. Keep your eyes open for the fliers and posters for this upcoming event.

You may remember that last week I mentioned that September is National Preparedness month.

Mayor David McCall has announced that on September 15th, the City Council issued Proclamation 2020-002 proclaiming both September and October, 2020 as Emergency Preparedness months. The proclamation encourages every community member to take active steps to protect their families and neighbors from natural and man-made disasters. All citizens and local businesses in our community are encouraged to create a home inventory of their personal property, speak with an insurance agent to make sure they are financially prepared for a disaster, and participate in the Great Shakeout on October 15th. The Great Shakeout is an Earthquake Preparedness event that takes place each year. At 10:15 AM on 10/15 people and organizations throughout Oregon will simulate an earthquake, and practice what they do following a quake. The City participated for the first time in 2019, and will participate again this year. Thank you David McCall and other Emergency Preparedness Committee members for working to keep Bay City prepared. Mark your calendar for Thursday, 10/15 at 10:15 and “Shake it Up”.

An announcement from

Emergency Preparedness Committee Chairperson Helen Wright: There will be a meeting for the neighborhood disaster preparedness captains and other interested persons on Monday, October 19th at 6:00 PM in the Bay City Fire Hall. You will receive your emergency packets and maps of your neighborhoods. The Committee is asking the citizens of Bay City to buy and fill 1-gallon zip-lock bags with the following items: tooth paste and tooth brushes, soap, wash cloth, hand towel, hand sanitizer, and mask. These items will be passed out by the captains to those in need in their neighborhoods and/or

included with the blankets in the emergency containers.

Your October calendar is filling up fast, and we still have eight more days until October 1st.

In this very difficult, sad, and downright dangerous world we live in, its important to lift up and honor the heroes who protect us; heroes that are always putting others ahead of their own needs, and sometimes their own lives.

They are the ones who see one lifeboat, and they don’t get in until everyone is in and safe.

Thank you for reading the Fencepost. I’ll see you next week.

• It is common that when we are emotional, we tend to comfort ourselves through food.

• Craving something salty or sweet • You may find yourself in a position where you really just want something sweet or salty.

After recognizing why we are snacking, and understanding that it is ok and normal no matter the circumstances, we can think about healthy choices. Here are a few examples of tasty, nutrient-rich snacks that will help sustain energy and satisfy hunger.

Examples of healthy snacks: • Trail mix • Look for ones that include nuts, seeds and dried fruits. Read the label

to see how many calories are in a serving to help you decide how much to eat.

Many trail mixes have a lot of added salt and sugars so be sure to read the labels and compare.

• Granola bars • Bars with fruit and whole grains offer higher amounts of fiber and energy. Some bars have a lot of added sugars, so it is important to read the labels and compare.

• Fresh fruit • Fruit is a great thing to throw in your bag before you leave the house or pick up at the closest grocery store. Bananas, apples, oranges and peaches or nectarines are great options for on the go.

• Crackers/veggies and dip • Look for whole-grain

or low sodium crackers.

• Chips and salsa • Try baked chips, or low-sodium tortilla chips.

Guacamole and hummus are also great for dipping.

• Low-fat popcorn and rice cakes • A great and tasty source of fiber for all ages.

• Applesauce, fruit cups and canned fruit • Look for fruits canned in juice or light syrup to avoid added sugar.

• Smoothies • Make with fresh or frozen fruit. Use milk and/ or yogurt for more protein and nutrition.

Next time you find yourself in a pinch and needing a snack, or heading out and wanting to pack some sustenance, think about these fun, healthy and yummy options.
