Keeping the Story in History

Mychel Matthews is a fourth-generation Magic Valley native who grew up on a large cattle ranch south of Burley. After graduating from Boise State University, she moved to Murtaugh where she has lived for more than 40 years.

Mychel has written four books published by the Times-News — “Magic Valley Memories, (Volumes 1, 2 and 3)” and “Hidden History,” a compilation of her history columns. A second volume of “Hidden History” will be released in November. Come enjoy this special event, and help keep history alive.
Notable Fish Stockings Around the State
By Bryan Grant, Fish Hatchery Complex Manager
Idaho Fish and Game stocks over 30 million fish from its hatcheries into waters throughout the state every year, providing Idahoans with fishing opportunities for a variety of species. Stocking is ramping back up in many parts of the state in March as the weather gets warmer and spring approaches, and many waterbodies are being stocked for the first time since the fall. With so many fish stocked in so many places, it can be hard for anglers to sift through the stocking forecasts and records to identify noteworthy stocking events. To make it easier, Fish and Game hatchery staff have highlighted some stocking events for the month of March. Whether it is a large number of fish being stocked relative to the size of the water, a unique species, a new location, or a one-time-only stocking, here’s what they came up with: Magic Valley Region Blair Trail Fishing Pond – 2,000 Rainbow Trout. First stocking event for 2020! Located on Little Canyon Creek, this remote desert water is surrounded by sagebrush solitude. Cedar Creek Reservoir (Roseworth Reservoir) – 2,000 Rainbow Trout. If you are looking to get out of town for the day, this reservoir is a remote trout fishery in the high desert. It has continued on page 6... great shoreline access as well as high water and low water boat ramps.

2020 Idaho Presidential Primary March 10th
Next week, Idaho joins five other states - Michigan, Mississippi, Missouri, North Dakota, and Washington - to hold its Presidential Primary Election on Tuesday, March 10th. In past years, the Idaho Presidential Primary has been held at the same time as the State Primary (to be held on May 19th). Also, this year Idaho Democrats will nominate their Presidential candidate through the primary process rather than by caucus. It is hoped that this will encourage more people to participate in the selection of a candidate. 17 names are on the Democratic ticket (see page 7), but as of Tuesday only 5 of those candidates remain in the race: Joe Biden, Michael Bloomberg, Tulsi Gabbard, Bernie Sanders, and Elizabeth Warren. South Carolina’s primary on Saturday, February 29th, brought Joe Biden’s campaign back to life. He won nearly 50% of that state’s Democratic vote putting him solidly in second position behind Bernie Sanders. Last night’s Super Tuesday (14 states) will likely reduce the number Democratic candidates even more as the results are tabulated. On the Republican ticket, there are no serious competators against President Trump. One candidate, Bill Weld (a former Governor of Massachusetts), took one deligate in the Iowa Caucuses but his campaign appears to be bankrupt. There is one other Presidential ticket Idaho voters might want to consider - the Constitution Party. 6 names are listed on that ticket, but only Don Blankenship (a coal executive from West Virginia) appears to have an active campaign. -- -- -- -- - Friday, March 13th, is the last day you can change your party affiliation before the May 19th Primary election. If you want to vote the Republican ticket, you must be registered as a Republican. Unaffiliated voters and registered Democrats can vote in the Democratic ticket. Unaffiliated voters can also vote the Constitution ticket. Unaffiliated voters can chose to affiliate anytime, including the day of a primary election.

Lincoln County Courthouse SURVEY
Surveys, have you ever noticed they come in truck loads; did you like your item, did your item do what you thought it would do, did you get your monies worth, did you get it in a timely fashion, when you go to the courthouse is there anyone there, did you speak to a rep, were they nice to you, would you buy from us again, can we give ourselves a big raise? All of you who have jobs, kids, family, do you all have the time to fill out all of those surveys? Did we know that if we didn’t fill out that courthouse survey in Lincoln County, it would be a green light to spend millions on a new courthouse? Did you know it could result in throwing just 2 Commissioners under the bus? The Commissioner of my district has never done what I wanted her to do yet or asked, but I haven’t tried to get her recalled. So out of the 2002 surveys mailed out, my research came up with 2106 registered voters in Lincoln County (sos.idaho.gov). Of the surveys delivered, there were 632 people that filled out the questionnaire - so they figure that 31% of our population responded. So, out of the 632, 60% of that 632 wanted a renovation and a new annex building. That equates to 60% of the 31%, which computes to be only 18.6% of the registered voters. Just asking; do we elect the President of the United States on a phone poll/ or are candidates decided on, by survey? So in my calculation, that leaves approximately 81.4% of the Lincoln County voting population. Do we not have say? Why in the world are we spending all this money to bicker and fight, instead of putting it towards a functional Courthouse for all to appreciate. Rod Hubsmith - Richfield -- -- -- -- --
Matt Pember Announces Bid for Re-election as Gooding County Prosecutor
As I look back on my first three and a half years as Prosecuting Attorney for Gooding County, words do not express the honor it has been to serve the County’s citizens. While Gooding County has always been a second home to Jodi and I (both of our families primarily live in Gooding County), the way we have been welcomed by the community has made it clear to me I wish to continue being Gooding County’s voice for the voiceless and defender of the defenseless for as long as the voters will have me. It has truly been the greatest honor of my life to serve Gooding County and it has truly become my home. I am proud of many of the things I have accomplished as Gooding County Prosecuting Attorney, criminally, civilly and as a volunteer in our community. Just a few of those things are listed below: Criminally: • Man who shot and killed his son-in-law - in prison. • MS-13 member who stabbed another man - in prison. • Teacher who had sex with a student found guilty of a felony. • Man who had sex with a teenager with autism found guilty of a felony. • Woman who embezzled $665,000 plead guilty to several felonies - awaiting prison. • Man who killed two in an alcohol related car accident, including an unborn child - in prison. Civilly: • Entered the County in the National Class Action Opioid suit. • Recovered over $15,000 for the Ambulance District from Federal Medicaid. • Brought NRA School Shield to Gooding County to teach educators and law enforcement the best ways to protect our children. • Partnered with the Idaho Anti-Trafficking Coalition. Volunteerism: • Working to bring a much-needed youth center to Gooding County. Helped secure a $50,000 grant for the Hagerman High School Academy of Agriculture and Food Science Program. • My wife and I started the Gooding County Prosecuting Attorney’s Scholarship. • Working with two North Valley seniors on their senior projects in criminal justice, and my office will have an intern from Hagerman starting law school in the fall. It would truly be an honor to continue to serve the people of Gooding County and to continue the work I’ve started. Please help me keep fighting for the good of Gooding County.

Glenna Mae Ruffing
Glenna Mae Ruffing, 93, longtime resident of Wendell and the West Point Community, entered into rest on February 22, 2020 at the Stonebridge Assisted Living in Hagerman, Idaho. Glenna was born in Caldwell, Idaho on March 16, 1926. She was later adopted in June 1926 to Herman and Sarah Brand and was joined by a brother, Bob Brand. She was raised in the West Point community in Wendell on the Lone Elm Ranch. She attended schools at Clear Lakes, West Point and Wendell. Glenna graduated high school from Buhl. While living on the ranch, she met the love of her life, Tony Ruffing. Tony was hauling milk from the ranch for Sego Milk when Glenna, 11 years younger caught his eye. Tony was soon drafted to World War II so they got married on June 4, 1945 at the Columbia Army Air Base in Columbia, South Carolina. Glenna stayed with a family in South Carolina while Tony was deployed. After the war ended, they moved back to the West Point area to start farming and a family. Tony and Glenna were blessed with two sons, Frank and Bill Ruffing along with two unborn daughters whom Glenna spoke of often. Glenna and Tony were very well known in the Wendell area for their custom farming, and employed many young men in the community. Glenna was a very hard-working woman. Even when she milked cows and worked at Simerly’s she still found the time to make sure everyone had a homemade meal which usually included some homemade dessert. Glenna never slowed down. She later earned her CNA degree at CSI and worked at the Wendell Manor for over 20 years. Glenna enjoyed spending time at their cabin at Magic Reservoir, camping and fishing with her best friend, Ferol Boss, and crocheting special gifts for her grandchildren. She was an active member of the West Point Ladies Club, West Point Grange, and served as a board member on the West Point Highway District for 8 years. Glenna eventually retired to take care of her beloved husband Tony until his passing in 1999. They sold the farm and she moved to town for a simpler life. She enjoyed puzzles and always had cookies for those who came by. Glenna is preceded in death by her parents Herman and Sarah Brand; brother Bob Brand; husband Tony Ruffing; great-grandson, Ethan Connell Ruffing, and her best friend Ferrol Boss. Glenna was a loving wife, mother, grandmother, great-grandmother and friend. She will be forever in our hearts and her sense of humor will forever be a beautiful memory and reminder to always laugh as she did. She is survived by her sons, Frank (Diana) Ruffing and Bill (Wendy) Ruffing; several beloved grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and a great-great-grandchild-to-be. Rosary services were recited Monday, March 2nd, at the Immaculate Conception Church in Buhl. Mass of Christian Burial was celebrated Tuesday, March 3rd, at the Immaculate Conception Church. Interment followed at the West End Cemetery in Buhl, Idaho. We would like to thank Stonebridge for the love and care of our mom. She was surrounded by family and in the arms of people who loved her as she was welcomed to be reunited with her love, Tony. In lieu of flowers memorial contributions can be made to Hagerman Valley Senior Center. Funeral arrangements are under the care and direction of Demaray Funeral Service – Wendell Chapel. Condolences, memories and photos can be shared with the family by following the obituary link at www.demarayfuneralservice.com.

Lorene F. Shaw
Lorene F. Shaw, 80, a resident of Hagerman, passed away on
Saturday, February 22, 2020 at North Canyon Medical Center in Gooding. Lorene Stone was born on May 10, 1939 to Roy F. and Vergie Fowler Stone at Clarkridge, Arkansas. Lorene left the “Ridge” in 1955; and over the years she traveled many miles to several countries overseas and has been in 49 of the states in the USA. She loved life and loved to travel, seeing a lot of the beautiful world that GOD has made, eventually meeting and marrying Harry Thomas Shaw from Pennsylvania. Tom was working for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service at the Wytheville National Fish Hatchery in Virginia, when they were married in 1969. They kept moving from one federal fish hatchery to another as Tom advanced in his career. They liked the fishery service and the adventure of moving from state to state. Tom retired in 1994 from the Hagerman National Fish Hatchery. They bought their retirement home south east of Hagerman in the middle of the sage brush and rocks. Lori always missed the South, but we love the desert and the mountains, plus the closeness to Wyoming and their friends there. Lorie was very active for many years in the Presbyterian Church in Wendell. The Church family there helped make up for her family in the South, which she loved and missed very much. Lorie retired in 2002 from the U.S. Postal Service in Hagerman. She is survived by: her loving husband – Tom; three sons and their wives – Joe and Kris, Duane and Denise, and Steve and Denise; her siblings – Ruth Strain, Roy J. Stone, Jack Stone, Jeanie Strain and Ray W. Stone; three sister-in-law’s; two brother-in-law’s; and many nieces, nephews and grandchildren. Lorene was preceded in death by her parents, one brother – Wallace, and many aunts, uncles and a nephew. Her loving Spirit has gone on to be with her Lord and Savior. A celebration of life and family inturment service will take place in Missouri in May 2020. Cremation arrangements are under the care and direction of Demaray Funeral Service – Gooding Chapel.

Courtney Hohnhorst
Courtney Hohnhorst, 74, of Wendell, Idaho passed away on February 20, 2020 and is now free from his pain and illness from this life here on earth. He was born January 14, 1946 at St. Valentine’s Hospital in Wendell, Idaho, son of Benjamin “Frank” and Alice Hohnhorst of Hazelton, Idaho. Court attended all of his school years in Valley and grew up on the family farm raising and tending bands of sheep. He graduated from high school in 1964. There are so many great stories from his years of playing football and wrestling. He then went on to Idaho State University on a wrestling scholarship until 1968. He eventually made his way on to Gooding county where he met Penny and raised his kids and grandkids the rest of his life. He farmed spuds for many years up to Bell Rapids through the late seventies and eighties. From there he went on to work for Montana Express driving in the early years and dispatching for nearly twenty years until retirement. Court and Penny also owned the Farmhouse Restaurant for 17 years before they sold it in 2007. Court loved his many teams of horses and loved his hobby of farming with old horse drawn machinery, building sheep camps and restoring old grain wagons. When his horses became too much for him to handle as he started having strokes, he restored his dad’s old red McCormick tractor that had sat for years under the apple tree in his mom’s garden. He was so proud of that prized possession. He participated in many tractor pulling events throughout the valley where he always placed and brought home a medal. He loved every minute of it. He was a man of many friends and knew everyone. He impacted many lives and would give the shirt off his back to help in some way. He was a great father and a wonderful papa to his grandchildren and will be missed tremendously. Courtney is survived by his children; daughter Misty Paluck; sons Shane (Cassi) Hohnhorst and James (Brandy) Hohnhorst; grandchildren, Jorden, Reagan, Shelby, Mikey, Xander, Kourtney, Nick, Jessica, Lacy, Raleigh, Lexy, Alexis and Merrick. Beloved friend Scott Pavko, and mother of his children Penny Hohnhorst. A celebration of life will be held in June at his beloved aunt and uncle’s family cabin in Stanley, Idaho, where so many family memories and lifelong moments were shared. A special thank you goes out to Desert View Care Center in Buhl, Idaho, for your loving care to our dad and papa. It was deeply appreciated. Funeral arrangements are under the care and direction of Demaray Funeral Service - www.demarayfuneralservice.com.
