Salmon smolt released into Coquille waterways

BY BREE LAUGHLIN The World

Thousands of young salmon have been released into the waterways of the Coquille River thanks to the help of a group of students at Coquille Junior/Senior High School.

On May 24, the high school students, along with staff from the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife and volunteers with the Coquille STEP nonprofit, prepared 4,871 salmon smolt for release into Coquille’s Cunningham Creek.

They worked together to fin clip the smolt. The salmon were then rested for a few days before being released into the creek and river system in an effort to increase the local salmon population.

“The Cunningham Creek salmon were released the Friday after fin clipping, and are well on their way,” said Coquillle STEP volunteer Pam Lewis.

“This return of salmon to our rivers runs on a 4 year cycle,” Lewis reported.

“Once the salmon mature in the ocean, the survivors will

return to home waters where fishing and spawning can occur,” she said.

The Cunningham Creek Fish Hatchery is located on the Coquille Junior/Senior High School campus. It was recently updated and is now operating as part of a new hands-on agriculture program for students, thanks to a partnership between several agencies and the help of many volunteers.

The two-year long renovation of the community pool became a labor of love for many community members and volunteers involved in the project.

Pool staff and volunteers, along with local city government officials and employees celebrated the longawaited reopening with a ribbon cutting on Thursday, June 1. North Bend Mayor Jessica Engelke kicked off the event with a speech to recognize those who contributed to the project, as well as a surprise announcement.

Southwestern Community College celebrates students who completed their GED

BY BREE LAUGHLIN The World

The 32 students wearing a cap and gown on Friday, June 2 represented a diverse variety of backgrounds and circumstances.

They may have missed wearing a cap and gown for a high school graduation, but they did not give up on themselves and they did not give up on furthering their education.

“Hard work and dedication have brought them all here today, so let’s join them in celebrating their accomplishments,” said Curtis Buell,

A local entrepreneur and the unofficial “tattoo lady” of Coquille said her business, Inspired Ink, is still going strong after 15 years.

Lisa Johnson said she has seen other tattoo artists come and go, and after 15-years she’s operating the longest standing tattoo shop in the area – making her the “OG” of Coos County – in spite of being a woman in a male-dominated industry.

Johnson has been coined the “tattoo lady” by locals because she is one of the few female tattoo artists around.

“Anywhere I go, people point me out, ‘Are you the tattoo

lady?’ I’m like, ‘Yes, I guess so.’ The public gave me that name,” Johnson said.

Johnson is a working mother of two and Coquille High School graduate. Her career as a tattoo artist began in 2008.

It was a busy time. She got married in 2007 to her husband David Johnson, and became pregnant with her first child while she was training to become a tattoo artist.

“It was a balancing act being in school and being a mom – and making time for drawing,” Johnson said. “I thought, ‘How can I continue this and still have time to be a mom?”

Johnson admitted it was a little

the welcome speaker for the Southwestern Community College GED graduation celebration.

Some of these adult students have full time jobs, are raising children, taking care of elderly family members and recovering from a global pandemic.

Southwestern Community College has seen a rise in the number of students obtaining their GED. A total of 56 GED graduates have come through SWOCC this year.

“This decision to return to school is often the hardest

difficult at the beginning.

“But I decided I needed to schedule around my kids and my family,” she said.

Johnson did what not many tattoo artists do. She scheduled her work hours from nine to five or until school or daycare got out, and she rarely worked on the weekends.

Flash forward to 2023, her schedule is still the same. Her daughter Kaytlin is now 15 and her son Hyatt is 13.

“My kids are two years apart and they are very busy, so I’m going to track and volleyball and wrestling

Juneteenth celebrations amplify black voices, commemorate positive change

BY BREE LAUGHLIN

The World

We can rewrite the ending to stories of historical injustice.

That’s what Taylor Stewart believes. He has dedicated his career to it.

Stewart started the Oregon Remembrance Project in 2018 as a personal project to me-

morialize a man named Alonzo Tucker, Oregon’s most widely-documented African American victim of lynching which occurred in Coos Bay on September 18, 1902.

Stewart’s project came to fruition when the Coos Bay community held their first public Juneteenth celebration in 2021. During the event, the Alonzo Tuck-

er memorial marker was unveiled outside of the Coos History Museum.

“That was really one of the greatest days of my life,” Stewart said.

“Having that event on Juneteenth really opened my eyes to the possibility of what Juneteenth could be, as not only a cultural celebration, but also an inflection point in

the community for how we create meaningful change,” he said.

Juneteenth is a federal holiday in the United States. Celebrations often reflect upon African American freedom and emphasize education and achievement.

This is the third year of local Juneteenth events. This year events will focus on celebra-

tion, centering resilience through storytelling, visibility, joy, food and amplifying black voices.

Stewart sees the continuation of local Juneteenth celebrations as a reflection of meaningful change.

“That is change worth being proud of,” Stewart said.

Stewart will be talking about the work he is doing to rectify historical injustice in other Southern Oregon communities through the Oregon Remembrance Project, as well as his vision for future Juneteenth

events during keynote speech that will be held at the Coos History Museum on June 17 from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.

Later, a family reunion reception will take place at Black Market Gourmet with a showcase of Oregon’s Black History on June 17 from 4 p.m. to 8 p.m.

On June 19 the Egyptian Theatre will be screening the Disney Pixar Movie “Soul” from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. These events are sponsored by a variety of local organizations including the South Coast Equity Coalition.

step anyone can make,”

Buell said. “It is amazing that you came through the door and it is even more amazing you are sitting here today.”

Students in the GED program learned how to write with proper grammar, learned complex scientific theories and they accomplished a lot in a short amount of time, Buell said. They had to pass a series of four tests in math, science, language arts and social studies to earn their GED.

“The GED process consists of not one, not two or even three, but four different tests in four different subject areas,” said commencement speaker Adrienne C. Ochs, Ph.D. “That’s what they went through to sit here this afternoon. That’s a big deal.”

“Many are going on to community college or a four year college, some will get better jobs, and some will use what they learned to become better parents or caregivers,” she said.

GED Graduate Brandy Griffin said it took ‘three Cs’ to make it through the program.

“The choice to be stronger and braver than ever, the choice to take control of your life and make it what you want,” she said.

“It took courage to take the necessary steps for a brighter future and

the courage to show up… And making a commitment to see it through and put in the work and hold myself accountable,” Griffin said.

With each day, Griffin said she grew in self -confidence and she now plans to pursue a career in nursing.

Her GED classmate

Hailey Waterman said she was derailed from graduating from High School when the pandemic hit and she struggled to do the work online.

“In my mind once I left high school I was too far gone, past the point of redemption,”

Waterman said during the graduation ceremony.

But she decided to prove the naysayers wrong.

“We are all here today against the odds showing how persistence can move us forward,”

Waterman said.

“In a matter of three short months I went from seeing myself as a high school failure who wasn’t capable of graduating to suddenly being a college student.”

Waterman plans to continue here education become a registered nurse.

Another recent GED graduate, Carter Northup, said he decided to get his GED to better his career.

“I’m going to the welding program and I am going to become a

welder,” he said.

Gannon Shuttleworth said he had been working toward his GED to further his education and his career. He manages a local bakery and plans to take business courses to become a better administrator.

Northup and Shuttleworth said they would recommend to anyone thinking about getting their GED to go for it.

“The hardest thing is starting off and getting yourself to do it,” Shuttleworth said.

Both GED certificate holders said they felt support from the staff.

“I didn’t feel like they were teaching me a bunch of stuff I was going to forget when I took the test. They were teaching me the things I need to know and how to get it done,” Shuttleworth said.

The state of Oregon has the second-highest high school drop-out in the country.

“With your graduation, you are beginning to turn the tide and increase the number of people who earn their GED in our state,” commencement speaker Ochs said.

“We are asking you to stay connected, embrace this feeling of accomplishment,” she said. “This graduation is not just for you, it’s for your family, your community and even for our state.”

School’s

The overall coursework covers a broad spectrum of agricultural topics, including natural resources. The educational program is supported

by The Coquille Tribe, Coquille STEP Association, Coquille School District 8 and Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife.

Extra! Extra! Read all about it! Daring robbery at the Marshfield museum! Priceless diamond stolen!

A confounded confusion of two travel trunks sets events in motion and hilarity ensues. Will the villain make o with the diamond and the girl or will our brave young hero save the day?

Beverly was born July 1, 1938 to John and Ellen Wesel in Morton, Washington.

At eight years of age, Beverly moved with her family to Bandon, Oregon, where she spent her formative years. Beverly lived a fulfilling life as a mother, sister, wife and friend. She loved creating delicate needle work until her eyesight began to fail. She was a wonderful cook, who worked in various restaurants throughout her lifetime. She retired from her profession in the early 2000s.

Beverly is survived by her husband of 64 years, Mr. William Scott; their sons, Anthony Scott of Tel Aviv, Israel and Bill Scott of Coquille, Oregon; and one brother, Willard Wesel of Winnemucca, Nevada.

She was preceded in death by her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Wesel; two sisters, Barbara and Joann; and two brothers, Bill and Leon. Her legacy will live on in the hearts of relatives and friends and the many customers who enjoyed her culinary delights over the years.

Joseph Gleich

July 27, 1942 – May 31, 2023

A mass of Christian burial for Michael J. Goll 66, of North Bend was held at Holy Redeemer Catholic Church in North Bend. Interment was held at Sunset Memorial Park in Coos Bay.

Michael was born June 2, 1956 in North Bend, Oregon, to John Elmer and Elizabeth Louise (Osborne) Goll. He passed away peacefully in his home with his children and close friends by his side, May 24, 2023 in Medford, Oregon.

Mike attended Coos Catholic from kindergarten through the eighth grade. He also attended North Bend High School and graduated in 1974. During high school, he was an avid three-sport athlete competing in football, basketball, and tennis. Mike was also very much involved in Boys State during high school. He married his high school sweetheart, Sheree Mallory, in 1975. Shortly thereafter, Mike and Sheree moved to

Portland where Mike took a job with the US Postal Service. The two moved back to North Bend in 1977. Their first child, Megan, was born in 1980. They had two sons, Ryan and Andy, born in 1983 and 1985 respectively. Throughout his life, Mike always put his kids first. His kids were his best friends, and he was their best friend. Mike wanted to spend as much time with his family as possible. He enjoyed coaching Megan's and Ryan's youth and high school sports programs. He enjoyed taking Andy bowling and playing golf with Andy. Mike retired from the US Postal Service in 2011. He spent his retirement with his three children, their friends (who quickly became his friends), and his grandchildren. Mike was an avid North Bend Bulldog supporter. He enjoyed watching college and professional sports with his children,

as well as betting on sporting events. He shared a unique and special bond with each of his children and his grandchildren. Mike had diverse interests and could meaningfully relate with virtually anyone on any level. He had a unique sense of humor, charisma, and personality that could light up any room and make every moment memorable.

Mike is sorely missed by his family and friends. His passing is a monumental loss to his family simply because he meant so much to so many.

Shortly before his passing, he relayed the following message to his children which speaks to the kind of man and father he was: “All I want you to say and remember is that we had fun.”

Mike is survived by his daughter, Megan Lucas (Reno) of North Bend; his sons, Ryan Goll (Amanda) of North Bend and Andrew Goll of Medford; granddaughter, Skylar Lucas of North Bend; and grandsons, Aiden Lucas of Medford and Gehrig Goll of North Bend.

He is preceded in death by his mother, Elizabeth Louise (Osborne) Goll; father, John “Jack” Elmer Goll, and his grandmother, Katherine Rose Goll.

In lieu of flowers, please donate to the North Bend High School softball program in Mike's honor.

Arrangements are under the care of Coos Bay Chapel, 541-267-3131. Family and friends are invited to sign the online guestbook at www. coosbayareafunerals. com

those trips. Once he settled down in North Bend, he got into horse riding and said that was some of the best fun he ever had. He got Mariah and Gray Shadow (Arabs) and rode all over the dunes daily with his dogs, RT, AL and Bob by his side. He took part in trail rides, parades, gaming and a few cattle drives up in Montana.

Don, his horses, and dogs traveled in Don's most prized possession a 1946 truck and horse trailer that he completely rebuilt his self. It became his true passion in life. When not out horse riding he could be found in his shop putting his mechanic and welding skills to use tinker on something all the time & always willing to help out a good friend.

For the last 6 years

Don was joined by his new sidekick, Reva Roe, a Catahoula pup that he said he finally found something more stubborn than he was. Together they traveled all over and could often be found running the sand dunes in a 4x4. Reva now lives with a friend of Don's but grieves for her lost friend.

In the last few months during our many long conversations Don had this to say about his life "I lived a good life and experienced so many things. I'm sorry for nothing, did the best with what I had, don't be sad when I am gone, I am happy with my life. What a ride!" Don's ashes will be spread where his horses and dogs lay at rest. Per his wishes no services will be held.

Joseph Gleich, 80, of North Bend (fun fact, one of the few people who literally didn’t have a middle name) passed away on May 31, 2023 in Coos Bay with his wife of 58 years by his bedside. Born and raised in New Jersey, he came of age in New York City before meeting his college sweetheart, a Brooklyn beauty, in Connecticut. Joseph and Susan got married, had a daughter, Stephanie, and then Michele, before his brilliant business acumen provided him extremely early retirement after working, living, and playing in Illinois, Ohio, Colorado and California.

Joseph promptly

set about donating to every nonprofit and investing in every for profit that needed it in his community. He built his wife her dream home, and he bought his young daughters ponies – a dream come true. He volunteered to stack hay bales, even though he suffered from hay fever, he volunteered to hand out hot chocolate at his kid’s ski races even though he despised the cold, he volunteered to man the Christmas tree lot even though he was Jewish, and he volunteered as the disabled parking enforcement official in Coos Bay even though he lived in neighboring North Bend.

Joseph will truly be

Guest Column Opinion HOLY COW! HISTORY: From Town Character to Cartoon Icon

A Word, Please: I or me?

By JUNE CASAGRANDE

“People like you and I feel betrayed.”

See anything wrong with that sentence? Most people probably don’t, but there is a problem with it and, for me, the problem is eye-opening.

Here’s the issue: If you want to be as proper and correct as possible, that “I” should be “me.” And for all the years I’ve spent attuned to the finer points of choosing “me” over “I,” I don’t believe I ever considered this situation until I came across this sentence recently in an article I was reading.

I know what you grammar-savvy types are thinking: “I” is a subject here. It’s performing the verb “feel.” And you’re right that “I feel betrayed” is normally the correct choice over “me feel betrayed.” The “you” doesn’t change that. It’s “you and I feel betrayed,” not “you and me feel betrayed.”

But there’s more going on in this sentence than meets the eye. And to see why “me” is the better choice here, it’s best to start with a review of subject and object pronouns.

When a pronoun is performing the action in a verb, it’s a subject. The personal pronouns in subject form are: I, you, he, she, it, we and they.

When a pronoun is receiving the action of a verb, it’s an object.

The personal pronouns in object form are: me, you, him, her, it, us and

them.

You’re probably already a master of subject and object pronouns in most situations. You wouldn’t say, “Us watched a movie,” using the object form. You’d say, “We watched a movie,” using the subject form, because that’s who’s doing the watching.

That’s why “I feel betrayed” is normally correct and “Me feel betrayed” is not.

But our sentence, “People like you and I feel betrayed,” is a trap.

“I” looks like a subject. But it’s not. The real subject of this sentence is “people”: “people feel betrayed.” The pronouns come right before the verb — a position that usually indicates the subject of a verb. But our pronouns are not the subject of the verb. They’re objects of the preposition “like.” And an object of a preposition takes an object form, “like me,” instead of a subject form, “like I.”

Not convinced? Try our original sentence without “you and”: “People like I feel betrayed” is obviously the wrong choice. Clearly, it should be “People like me feel betrayed.”

When you add another person plus “and” to a sentence, it’s harder to pick the right pronoun form. For example, no one would say, “Thank you for meeting with I,” but they often say stuff like “Thank you for meeting with Sarah and

I.” No one would say “between we,” but they often say “between you and I,” which is as wrong as “we” because both “we” and “I” are subject pronouns incorrectly used as objects of the preposition “between.” Technically, it’s not wrong to use “I” in these cases. Usages like “between you and I” are considered idiomatic, which makes them acceptable. The problem with using “I” in an object position is that, when people do this, it’s often because they’re trying to be as proper as possible. Teachers and parents pounded it into our heads that we should say, “Steve and I are going to the park” instead of “Steve and me are going to the park,” which is true. But that doesn’t mean that “I” is always more proper. When we use “I” in “people like you and I” or “with you and I” or “between you and I,” it’s usually because we’re trying to be as grammatically correct as possible and, unfortunately, revealing that we don’t know how. In most cases, if you try the sentence without the other person, you reveal whether “I” or “me” is correct, as in: people like me feel betrayed.

Gail Louise Sprague

August 5, 1946 – May 11, 2023

Gail Louise Sprague (Markle) went home to be with her Lord and Savior May 11, 2023. She was born August 5, 1946 in Portland, Oregon to parents, Helen May (Evans) and Clayton F. Markle both of whom preceded her in death.

Gail is survived by her children, Jason Sprague and Jill

with multiple sclerosis. She appreciated her team of doctors at Providence Medical Group and Oregon Health & Science University, both in Portland. Over the course of her life she had an extensive array of doctors from San Francisco to Portland.

In early 1929, a young artist stared blankly at his drawing board. Though Elzie Segar was a rising cartoonist, at that moment he was stumped.

For 10 years, he had been drawing the syndicated “Thimble Theatre” comic strip. After a slow start, it gradually developed a following during the 1920s as more and more newspapers began carrying it.

The star of the storyline was long, lean and frequently lazy Harold Hamgravy (eventually shortened to just Ham Gravy) and his fussy, nononsense girlfriend, Olive Oyl. Olive’s nearsighted brother Castor Oil joined in their adventures.

Now Segar was looking for a new wrinkle. Ham Gravy and Castor Oil devised a scheme to break the bank at a casino on Dice Island. But first, they needed an experienced sailor to skipper their boat.

As Segar mulled over possibilities, he did what countless novelists, painters and musicians had done for centuries when the Muse refused to come to the rescue. He reached into his own personal experience.

Segar thought back to his boyhood in the Illinois town of Chester, a little county-seat community sitting proudly atop a bluff overlooking the Mississippi River south of St. Louis. Like all the kids in town, Segar had been mesmerized listening to the astonishing tales told by Frank “Rocky” Fiegal.

Rocky was the town character. And that was putting it mildly. In a region known for colorful coots, Rocky stood out from the pack.

Born in Poland in 1868, he had come to the United States with his parents as a child. But a Norman Rockwell-type

small-town life held little appeal for him, so he went off to sea. Rocky spent the next 20 years circling the globe in the merchant marines.

The lure of home ultimately proved too strong to resist. It lured him back to Chester, where he eventually took a job as a bouncer at the popular Weisbusch’s Tavern. Strong as an ox, Rocky enjoyed jumping into fights as often as he broke them up. And more often than not, he emerged from those tussles as the victor.

Rocky became more than the drinking establishment’s muscle. He soon turned into its star attraction. He spent hours at the bar, regaling patrons with tales both tall and short of his adventures on the seven seas.

He looked the part of a world-traveling adventurer, too. Powerfully built, he perpetually had a pipe stuck in one corner of his mouth as he talked non-stop out of the other as he spun his incredible yarns.

And there was his eye. One fight too many had left him with an injury that led to a second nickname: Popeye.

As Segar mulled the sailor he needed for his comic strip, he ultimately decided, “Why create someone from scratch when I already know the perfect one?”

And so Popeye the Sailor Man first appeared in the nation’s funny pages on January 17, 1929. It was initially intended to be a short run. Popeye would get the gang to the island for their caper, bring them back, and that would be that. But things didn’t turn out that way.

Readers wrote in droves, asking to see more of the outlandish seaman. Popeye was back by March.

J. Mark Powell

Popeye’s return brought more readers, and that, in turn, brought more papers picking up the comic. The squinteyed sailor soon pushed Ham Gravy out of the storyline and stole his girl. Olive Oyl (who was initially less than impressed by the burly, pipe-puffing sailor) became his devoted sweetheart. And what about Rocky back in Chester? He loved it! He ate up his new celebrity status with a spoon. Segar had called Rocky and asked his approval of using his story in the strip. Rocky was flattered and eagerly agreed. To his immense credit, even though there was no formal agreement between them, Segar sent Rocky a percentage of the money he made off the feature right up to the cartoonist’s death from leukemia at age 43 in 1938.

Rocky was a more prominent local celebrity than ever. People couldn’t resist taking visitors to the tavern to meet the real Popeye, and Rocky couldn’t resist retelling the stories he had repeated thousands of times before.

When he passed away at age 79 in 1947, he was buried under a tombstone that modestly says, “Inspiration for Popeye the Sailor Man.” Occasionally, a fan will leave a can of spinach in tribute to the town character turned cartoon icon who was always “strong to da finish.”

After enjoying the coolness of the morning breeze and the plantings in her Northeast Portland gardens, Sharon exchanged loving words with her sister, Donna, settled in her wheelchair, and found eternal peace. For over five decades, Sharon had contended with the disabilities from multiple sclerosis.

Sharon credited her longevity to Dr. Roy Swank’s influence and his early research for patients

Determined to embrace life as long as she could, Sharon traveled to Montana last year for her great nephew’s high school graduation and visited her uncle and cousins in Qualicum Beach, on Vancouver Island. Sharon sang a rousing “She’ll Be Coming ‘Round the Mountain” while accompanied by her uncle on his ukulele. Her personal favorite was Gordon’s rendition of, “I Passed by Your Window”.

Sharon was born in New Westminster, B.C. Canada as WW II was ending and emigrated to the U.S. with her family as young child. This spring, she hosted her nephew, Jack from Edinburgh, Scotland. In May, several of her family members visited to wish her well and to see her new apartment that was decorated with family photographs and memorabilia. Sharon still had trips on her “bucket list”. One was to sail up the Columbia River with a granddaughter, another to attend her great granddaughter’s graduation from Eastern Oregon University, third to visit her youngest great granddaughter in England, and a fourth was to attend her uncle’s 99th birthday party.

She was involved with her children’s activities: room mother, den mother, and with her husband Terry provided leadership for the 4-H Horse Program: Horses & Horsemanship. The Hauser Dune Riders competed and won numerous ribbons during those years. Sharon was proud of the blue ribbon she won at the state fair for knitting. Her family remembers holding a fashion show and modeling various garments she had made. Sharon reconnected with friends and reminisced with classmates at Marshfield High School class of ‘63 reunions. She especially liked annual picnics at Sunset Beach. Sixty years ago, she was a member of the “Pirettes” twirling

team that led the MHS Marching Band in the Portland Grand Floral Parade.

Sharon is survived by her daughter, Danyel Louise Petersen, (LeRoy); a son, Darin Ardell Stuhlmiller; plus, three stepdaughters, Cindy Johnston, Betty Stuhlmiller, and Vicky Farrens; and a stepson, Daniel Stuhlmiller from her blended family. The importance of her role as grandmother and great grandmother was noted when anyone asked about her family. Sharon would proudly state she had 12 grandchildren and 27 great grandchildren. She is also survived by her sisters, Kim Whitney Smith (Clayton) and Donna Gail Gamble (Doyl); a brother, Ernest

Evans Whitney, Jr. (Ellen); an uncle and numerous cousins in Canada; four nieces; six nephews; several great nieces and nephews; and three great-great nephews.

She was predeceased by her husband, Terry Lynn Stuhlmiller; daughter-in-law, Valerie Stuhlmiller; grandson, Chad Johnston; her parents, Ernest Evans and Dorothy Eileen Whitney; and baby sister, Donna Arlene Whitney.

The family is planning a grave-side ceremony officiated by Pastor Matt Gass at 2 p.m. on Wednesday, June 14, 2023 at Sunset Memorial Park-Cemetery, 63060 Millington Frontage Road. The North Bend Chapel is handling the funeral arrangements 541-756-0440.

NOTICE TO RESIDENTIAL

TENANTS The property in which you are living is in foreclosure. A foreclosure sale is scheduled for 09/15/2023 (date). The date of this sale may be postponed. Unless the lender that is foreclosing on this property is paid before the sale date, the foreclosure will go through and someone new will own this property. After the sale, the new owner is required to provide you with contact information and notice that the sale took place. The following information applies to you only if you are a bona fide tenant occupying and renting this property as a residential dwelling under a legitimate rental agreement. The information does not apply to you if you own this property or if you are not a bona fide residential tenant.

If the foreclosure sale goes through, the new owner will

have the right to require you to move out. Before the new owner can require you to move, the new owner must provide you with written notice that specifies the date by which you must move out. If you do not leave before the move-out date, the new owner can have the sheriff remove you from the property after a court hearing. You will receive notice of the court hearing.

PROTECTION FROM EVICTION IF YOU ARE A BONA FIDE TENANT OCCUPYING AND RENTING THIS PROPERTY AS A RESIDENTIAL DWELLING, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO CONTINUE LIVING IN THIS PROPERTY AFTER THE FORECLOSURE SALE FOR: • 60 DAYS FROM THE DATE YOU ARE GIVEN A WRITTEN TERMINATION NOTICE, IF YOU HAVE A FIXED TERM LEASE; OR • AT LEAST 30 DAYS FROM THE DATE YOU ARE GIVEN A WRITTEN TERMINATION NOTICE, IF YOU HAVE A MONTH-TO-MONTH OR WEEK-TO-WEEK RENTAL AGREEMENT. If the new owner wants to move in and use this property as a primary residence, the new owner can give you written notice and require you to move out after 30 days, even though you have a fixed term lease with more than 30 days left. You must be provided with at least 30 days’ written notice after the foreclosure sale before you can be required to move. A bona fide tenant is a residential tenant who is not the borrower (property owner) or a child, spouse or parent of the borrower, and whose rental agreement: • Is the result of an arm’slength transaction; • Requires the payment of rent that is not substantially less than fair market rent for the property, unless the rent is reduced or subsidized due to a federal, state or local subsidy; and • Was entered into prior to the date of the foreclosure sale.

ABOUT YOUR TENANCY BETWEEN NOW AND THE FORECLOSURE SALE: RENT YOU SHOULD CONTINUE TO PAY RENT TO YOUR LANDLORD UNTIL THE PROPERTY IS SOLD OR UNTIL A COURT TELLS YOU OTHERWISE. IF YOU DO NOT PAY RENT, YOU CAN BE EVICTED. BE SURE TO KEEP PROOF OF ANY PAYMENTS YOU MAKE. SECURITY DEPOSIT You may apply your security deposit and any rent you paid in advance against the current rent you owe your landlord as provided in ORS 90.367. To do this, you must notify your landlord in writing that you want to subtract the amount of your security deposit or prepaid rent from your rent payment. You may do this only for the rent you owe your current landlord. If you do this, you must do so before the foreclosure sale. The business or individual who buys this property at the foreclosure sale is not responsible to you for any deposit or prepaid rent you paid to your landlord.

ABOUT YOUR TENANCY

AFTER THE FORECLOSURE SALE

The new owner that buys this property at the foreclosure sale may be willing to allow you to stay as a tenant instead of requiring you to move out after 30 or 60 days. After the sale, you should receive a written notice informing you that the sale took place and giving you the new owner’s name and contact information. You should contact the new owner if you would like to stay. If the new owner accepts rent from you, signs a new residential rental agreement with you or does not notify you in writing within 30 days after the date of the foreclosure sale that you must move out, the new owner becomes your new landlord and must maintain the property. Otherwise: • You do not owe rent; • The new owner is not your landlord and is not responsible for maintaining the property on your behalf; and • You must move out by the date the new owner specifies in a notice to you. The new owner may offer to pay your moving expenses and any other costs or amounts you and the new owner agree on in exchange for your agreement to leave the premises in less than 30 or 60 days. You should speak with a lawyer to fully understand your rights before making any decisions

regarding your tenancy. IT IS UNLAWFUL FOR ANY PERSON TO TRY TO FORCE YOU TO LEAVE YOUR DWELLING UNIT WITHOUT FIRST GIVING YOU WRITTEN NOTICE AND GOING TO COURT TO EVICT YOU. FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR RIGHTS, YOU SHOULD CONSULT A LAWYER. If you believe you need legal assistance, contact the Oregon State Bar and ask for the lawyer referral service. Contact information for the Oregon State Bar is included with this notice.

The property in which you are living is in foreclosure. A foreclosure sale is scheduled for 09/27/2023 (date). The date of this sale may be postponed. Unless the lender that is foreclosing on this property is paid before the sale date, the foreclosure will go through and someone new will own this property. After the sale, the new owner is required to provide you with contact information and notice that the sale took place. The following information applies to you only if you are a bona fide tenant occupying and renting this property as a residential dwelling under a legitimate rental agreement. The information does not apply to you if you own this property or if you are not a bona fide residential tenant. If the foreclosure sale goes through, the new owner will have the right to require you to move out. Before the new owner can require you to move, the new owner must provide you with written notice that specifies the date by which you must move out. If you do not leave before the move-out date, the new owner can have the sheriff remove you from the property after a court hearing. You will receive notice of the court hearing. PROTECTION FROM EVICTION IF YOU ARE A BONA FIDE TENANT OCCUPYING AND RENTING THIS PROPERTY AS A RESIDENTIAL DWELLING, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO CONTINUE LIVING IN THIS PROPERTY AFTER THE FORECLOSURE SALE FOR:

• 60 DAYS FROM THE DATE YOU ARE GIVEN A WRITTEN TERMINATION NOTICE, IF YOU HAVE A FIXED TERM LEASE; OR • AT LEAST 30 DAYS FROM THE DATE YOU ARE GIVEN A WRITTEN TERMINATION NOTICE, IF YOU HAVE A MONTH-TO-MONTH OR WEEK-TO-WEEK RENTAL AGREEMENT. If the new owner wants to move in and use this property as a primary residence, the new owner can give you written notice and require you to move out after 30 days, even though you have a

fixed term lease with more than 30 days left. You must be provided with at least 30 days’ written notice after the foreclosure sale before you can be required to move. A bona fide tenant is a residential tenant who is not the borrower (property owner) or a child, spouse or parent of the borrower, and whose rental agreement: • Is the result of an arm’slength transaction; • Requires the payment of rent that is not substantially less than fair market rent for the property, unless the rent is reduced or subsidized due to a federal, state or local subsidy; and • Was entered into prior to the date of the foreclosure sale.

ABOUT YOUR TENANCY BETWEEN NOW AND THE FORECLOSURE SALE: RENT YOU SHOULD CONTINUE TO PAY RENT TO YOUR LANDLORD UNTIL THE PROPERTY IS SOLD OR UNTIL A COURT TELLS YOU OTHERWISE.

IF YOU DO NOT PAY RENT, YOU CAN BE EVICTED. BE SURE TO KEEP PROOF OF ANY PAYMENTS YOU MAKE. SECURITY DEPOSIT You may apply your security deposit and any rent you paid in advance against the current rent you owe your landlord as provided in ORS 90.367. To do this, you must notify your landlord in writing that you want to subtract the amount of your security deposit or prepaid rent from your rent payment. You may do this only for the rent you owe your current landlord. If you do this, you must do so before the foreclosure sale. The business or individual who buys this property at the foreclosure sale is not responsible to you for any deposit or prepaid rent you paid to your landlord.

ABOUT YOUR TENANCY

AFTER THE FORECLOSURE SALE

The new owner that buys this property at the foreclosure sale may be willing to allow you to stay as a tenant instead of requiring you to move out after 30 or 60 days. After the sale, you should receive a written notice informing you that the sale took place and giving you the new owner’s name and contact information. You should contact the new owner if you would like to stay. If the new owner accepts rent from you, signs a new residential rental agreement with you or does not notify you in writing within 30 days after the date of the foreclosure sale that you must move out, the new owner becomes your new landlord and must maintain the property. Otherwise: • You do not owe rent; • The new owner is not your landlord and is not responsible for maintaining the property on your behalf; and • You must move out by the date the new owner specifies in a notice to you. The new owner may offer to pay your moving expenses and any other costs or amounts you and the new owner agree on in exchange for your agreement to leave the premises in less than 30 or 60 days. You should speak with a lawyer to fully understand your rights before making any decisions regarding your tenancy. IT IS UNLAWFUL FOR ANY PERSON TO TRY TO FORCE YOU TO LEAVE YOUR DWELLING UNIT WITHOUT FIRST GIVING YOU WRITTEN NOTICE AND GOING TO COURT TO EVICT YOU.

AS I SEE IT

By Mary Schamehorn

"Familiar Little Passenger and Mail Craft Has Been Sold" is the subhead in the Sept. 24, 1925, article in Western World, as Bandon's beloved river boat Charm heads to Astoria.

"The gas launch Charm (first picture) has been sold by the Myrtle Point Transportation company ... and left here Tuesday afternoon for delivery at Astoria, where it will go into service on the Columbia River." The MP Transportation Company was owned by the Walter Panter family.

"It was the intention of the owners to take the Charm from Bandon to Astoria under her own power. She is equipped with a 65 h.p. Diesel engine and is of rugged construction, but since she was a passenger boat (second photo) built on this river for service on this river and had never been licensed for coastwise operation, the owners were not allowed to take her to sea under her own power. Captain J.L. Nutter of the local U.S. Coast Guard station was unable to give the boat clearance papers and therefore did not permit her to leave.

"As a result the Myrtle Point Transportation company secured John Swing, captain of the Zebra, a small sea-going craft that has been making Rogue river (its home), to come into the

local harbor and take the Charm in tow. The pair put to sea at about 2:30 in the afternoon and all the river craft along the harbor line (third photo) saluted the familiar little vessel as it passed, giving it a last farewell.

"The Charm was manned on the trip by W.A. Panter, Moss Averill, Chet Kimble, all of Bandon, and Ed Lindberg of Port Orford.

"The Charm was built at Herman Bros. shipyards at Prosper. It was first equipped with a gas engine, and for many years was the fastest passenger and mail carrier on the river, operating between Coquille and Bandon. Before the highway was completed this was the only means of transportation between the two places and the Charm maintained a regular schedule. In fact it was very seldom that the little boat didn't leave or arrive on time, regardless of tide or weather conditions.

"A few years ago, when gasoline prices had gone up and operations costs were extremely high, the gasoline engine was taken out and a Diesel put in. The hull of the boat was also overhauled and put in first class shape. The boat gave signal service from then on until it was taken off the run early this summer after the highway was completed and the post office department was induced to allow the mail

to be carried between Coquille and Bandon by motor car instead of by water."

Although Sgt. Larry Lynch told me that he knew of only one burglary in the area near the post office recently, a resident who lives in that area told me there appears to be a spate of burglaries and other odd happenings lately, some of it in their neighborhood. One Baltimore neighbor had their garage and then their house broken into recently, with a guy caught on camera. Several months ago another neighbor had their back door pried. My friend just wanted me to alert people in Bandon to be aware of what is happening in their neighborhoods.

A 54-year-old Bandon woman, Leah M. Gitter, was arrested on four counts of reckless endangering and one count of reckless driving June 2 shortly before 3 p.m. after the vehicle she was driving drove onto the curb at Highway 101 and 42S and nearly struck several women on the sidewalk, who were apparently peacefully advocating for people's rights.

Officer E. Owens from the Bandon Police Department and deputy H. Francis from the Coos County Sheriff's Office responded to the area. Owens located the vehicle on SE 18th Street while Deputy Francis re-

sponded to take witness statements.

Officer Owens transported Gitter, who was previously employed at McKay's Market in Bandon, to the Coos County Jail, where she was booked and later released on her own recognizance. A Bandon officer told me from all indications, that this was an accident.

The South Coast Interagency Narcotics Team (SCINT) has been working on several narcotics investigations involving several individuals, locations and vehicles throughout the past few months, according to a press release from Sheriff Gabe Fabrizio.

In late May, a traffic stop was conducted. The vehicle's occupants possessed 64 M-30 fentanyl pills, scales and packaging material. The illegal narcotics were seized and removed from circulation. No further information is being released as this is an ongoing investigation.

Friends and family of Katherine (Kathy) Dornath are invited to attend her Celebration of Life this Saturday, June 10, from 1 to 3 p.m. at Laverne County Park on Fairview Road east of Coquille.

This will be a potluck picnic with the main dish and drinks provided. People are asked to bring a dish to share and their lawn chairs, according to Kathy's daughter, Betty Albertson. A memorial service for Mickey Hurley will be held Saturday, June 24, at 3 p.m. at the VFW Hall on Bates Road. His daughter Deanna Hurley Hockema said, "we would love to see and talk to any of his past students, teachers and

Bandon High School just continues to reap the accolades, with the latest being the band, under the direction of Dave Weston.

At the state championships, held May 12, at Oregon State University, the BHS band captured the highest score to take home the division 2A honors.

Weston is quoted as saying what put them over the top was "their ability to read and play music that they had never seen before."

Weston starts working with band students as young as fifth grade as he directs the district's music program.

Although there was very little explanation, Coast Community Health Center posted on Facebook recently that while their Port Orford clinic is accepting new patients, the Bandon clinic will not be accepting new patients for the next 90 days.

"We will be adding new providers and expanding our availability in Bandon soon. We will begin taking new patients Sept. 1, 2023," said the post.

The Southern Coos

Health Clinic, on the other hand, is accepting new patients, and in addition to Dr. Paul Preslar (my doctor), the clinic has another new provider in Dr. Bonnie Wong. I would strongly advise you to contact the hospital's clinic at 541329-0154 if you need a health provider.

Here are the other listings that I found in the last couple of weeks concerning business and commercial property in the Bandon area.

Century 21 Best Realty of Coos Bay has Face Rock Creamery listed for $3,950,000, which includes the 8,198 square foot building and 0.33 acres of land. The listing explains that FRC is an award winning specialty cheese manufacturer.

Lord Bennett's, next to Sunset Motel overlooking the beach, is

listed for $2.2 million; the building which formerly housed an Italian restaurant at 1455 Oregon avenue is listed for $1.5 million; the listing for Lloyd's Cafe is $899,000; The Minute Cafe is listed for $895,000, and the former florist shop at 1092 Alabama Avenue is listed for $629,000. Billy Smoothboars is for sale for $1,550,000. A building at 340 Second Street, just east of the visitor center parking lot, is listed for $349,000.

The Bandon Professional building at 475

Elmira Avenue is listed for $1,150,000, and the commercial building on the south side of the highway between Grand and Harlem avenues, is listed for $989,000. The rest home on McTimmons Lane, is for sale for $1,850,000.

A light industrial investment property at 610 Third Street is listed by Team Realty, Myrtle Point, for $975,000. This appears to be the old city shop property that was recently purchased by Greg Drobot of Face Rock Creamery.

The Bandon Chamber

of Commerce is sponsoring a Rock and Gem Show at the Barn on June 23 and 24 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., featuring the Far West Lapidary and Gem Society. Admission is free.

The next Alive After Five is Friday, June 15, and the next First Saturday Art Walk is Saturday, July 1. Cost for both is $10, with glasses purchased for the wine walk at the Port picnic shelter, and for the Art Walk at the visitor center.

Madeline Seymour and I went to the cham-

pagne benefit at the Sawdust Theatre Friday night, and it was fun to see Bandon's own Dan Barnett play the villain and Linda Baldwin in the Olio cast. The parts are double cast, so Bandon's Laurie Kreutzer will also appear on stage. Two of those in the olio, Kent Trigg and Bryzen Webley, work at Face Rock Creamery. It's a fun show, which runs each Saturday throughout the summer, as well as occasional Friday and Sunday shows. Go to www. sawdusttheatre.com for information.

The Chamber Minute: What does out board do?

The Chamber is led by a Board of 21 Directors, chosen from its membership. Each year, in September, about 1/3 of them are up for election, for a new three year term. So what does a board member do?

Your Chamber board determines policies and sets goals aimed at improving the well being of our community. They team with other directors in developing a program of work, through the Chamber, that gives the community the greatest opportunity for growth and prosperity. You must believe strongly in the problem solving powers that are created when people are mobilized for action.

Board members are doers, not just policy makers. They lead by example. They all serve on at least one of the Action Teams, like Tourism or Business Development & Support , or Leadership Coos, or Transportation or the Legislative Action team, just to name a few. They encourage other members to actively participate as well. They ensure the Team has clearly defined objectives to meet its responsibilities and challenges. They also have fun.

Your community has succeeded as a result of people working together.

Your Chamber of Commerce provides the perfect mechanism for continued community cooperation and success. As a director you have an opportunity—and an obligation—

Timm Slater

to move your Chamber and the community into an even more dynamic future.

So Chamber member, if this sounds like an exciting opportunity to you, throw your hat in the election ring. Give us a call and we will line you up with the nominating committee as it puts together its slate of new directors, next month, for the September election.

The Bay Area Chamber of Commerce, remember Our Business is Helping your Business. And like us on facebook.

Dear Abby Abigail Van Buren

By

Dear Abby:

My partner, "Josh," and I (we're both male) have been together for two years. We met while living in LA and were fortunate to be accepted to grad schools in NYC. We're not living together now as our schools are in different boroughs, but we see each other most weekends.

Recently, Josh has been trying to make more friends, as our social network seems more heavily skewed toward people from my circles (school, past work, etc.). I have the benefit of living on a grad school campus with in-person classes. Ninety percent of my peers are within the three buildings around me. Josh's school has more students spread around Manhattan.

I'm trying to figure out how I can support him making friends organically while not feeling like I'm ignoring him or missing out on time with him. We communicate well, and I've asked how I can help him, or if I should give him more space (i.e., not come over some weekends to give him more free time to make plans with other people), but he gets upset at me not being around when I could be.

I'm not sure how to support his social growth. I've tried suggesting he join student groups, take in-person classes rather than hybrid or online, join local events and groups, etc., but he seems resistant. What should I do?

DEAR DEAR OUT OF IDEAS:

You and your partner have very different personalities. It should be apparent that Josh likes being a part of your circle to the point that he doesn't want to build one of his own. He also may feel more confident when you are close by.

As much as you care for him, this indicates a basic incompatibility. While this may be acceptable to you now, with time it may become an increasingly heavy burden. Couples counseling could be useful, perhaps from an LGBTQ community center or a student health center on your campus, to help you both thrash this out. From where I sit, it appears you are already doing as much to support Josh as you can.

and football,” she said.

As far as her work schedule, Johnson says most people are understanding.

“They have gotten to know me, and with social media I can tell my story.”

Johnson has also maintained her passion for being a tattoo artist.

“I like to challenge myself to get better. When I started off I thought

I was pretty good because I could draw and I knew shapes and shading. But you have to keep learning,” she said. “I have always wanted to learn and educate myself and strive to get better.”

She said the trick is enjoying what you do.

“You are getting income from doing art and making people happy.

Some people get really emotional. That keeps me going,” Johnson said. Over the years, the tattoo artist has seen others in her craft suffer from burn out.

“If you get to that point you need to refocus, to energize yourself and ask why you are doing it,” she said.

The local tattoo artist said her style leans toward fine line color realism and she enjoys floral and naturebased art.

“I like pretty stuff,” Johnson said.

There are some tattoos Johnson won’t do, and she has to disappoint people, either because the tattoo does not match with her style as an artist, or she has questions about how it will turn out. She would rather stick

with what she knows will create a high-quality product.

“Over the years I have found when I like something it keeps me going and it keeps me in my happy place. If you are happy as an artist it shows through your work,” she said.

Johnson said her dedication, and a loyal customer base, has kept her books filled. The best way to contact her regarding a tattoo is by email: Inspiredink77@gmail.com or through messenger on her Inspired Ink Facebook page.

people to thank who contributed to opening this pool from the police department, fire department, library, our finance, streets, public works, wastewater –everyone in the city has contributed to helping making this dream become a reality to open this pool,” she said.

Engelke thanked the contractors and those

who donated funds to the project, as well all the community members who have supported the community pool.

“We all have very fond memories,” Engelke said.

“I grew up swimming in this pool and taking swimming lessons and I know a lot of people that are standing here today did the same thing as well,” Engelke said.

The $1.4 million in

infrastructure repairs and upgrades made to the pool include new LED lighting, instant hot water showers, updated shower facilities, new pumps, a new filtration system, a new boiler system, a new ADA compliant lift chair, new tile, repaired street signage and the introduction of a kiosk entry system. A fitness court is also planned for the outdoor deck.

“We also have an

announcement that everyone will swim free for the month of June,” the North Bend Mayor said during the ribbon cutting ceremony.

North Bend Municipal pool director Claire McKee addressed the crowd at the event as well.

“You have no idea how much this means to me and my staff. You guys are the reason why we are able to do this today,” she said.

McKee said she moved to the Coos County community from Hawaii, “which is a little bit far away, but everyone has been so welcome and so open.”

“I am thankful to be a part of your families and to see your families enjoy and make memories here at this pool,” she said. “We know it means a lot and you guys have made it abundantly clear how much support we have for this.”

McKee introduced swim instructors and

lifeguards before she and Mayor Engelke cut the ribbon and welcomed the community in to use the pool facilities free of charge.

The pool schedule has been posted to the North Bend Municipal Pool Facebook page the North Bend city website at www. northbendoregon.us/ pool.
