Where's the Fire?
There is a new, simple way to find Idaho fire names and locations online and on mobile with the new Idaho Fire Map, including the Bedrock Fire which has quickly grown to an estimated 8,000 acres and is 0% contained. The fire is located near Lenore, Idaho, on the north side of Highway 12 between Lewiston and Orofino. The Idaho Fire Map can be found on the Idaho Department of Lands website. The map was built by the Idaho Department of Land's awardwinning GIS team. The team worked in conjunction with the Wildland Fire Interagency Geospatial Services Group. The map covers all of Idaho wildland fires, relying on data from the Integrated Reporting of Wildland-Fire Information (IRWIN) system. Other fire information websites, such as InciWeb, may only report on incidents that threaten structures or cover large acreages. The Idaho Fire Map displays fire information about all reported wildfires in Idaho.

Mary Condie
News@Highway46.org
obit ua r ies
Mary Condie, 84, a resident of Gooding, passed away on September 17, 2020 at Stonebridge Assisted Care in Hagerman. Mary Elaine Lollar was born August 12, 1936 to Howard and Opal (Jones) Lollar, joining big sister, Martha to complete the Lollar family. Growing up in Gooding with numerous relatives and a town full of friends, ongoing opportunities for mischief and/or a pot luck dinner were ever present. Mary had a delightful childhood as evidenced by the many stories and knowing smiles shared among family members at the regular pot luck meals. (Just ask any of them for a story...there are a multitude.) After high school she attended the College of Idaho graduating with a teaching certificate. During those years Mary dated and married fellow GHS graduate, George Max Hoyle Jr. After his stint in the Air Force, the two returned to Pocatello where Mary taught school and George finished college. Three years later they returned to Gooding where they both took teaching positions with the Idaho State School for the Deaf and Blind. Together they had three children Julie, Jenny, and Tim. George and Mary later divorced. While working full time, Mary raised her three children with boundless love and guidance. She never missed an opportunity to support their many and diverse interests. Mary was employed at the ISSDB for 26 years, retiring in 1995. During those years she taught every grade 2-12 and was principal for a few years, too. After her retirement, former students and colleagues kept in touch which was a testament to the influence and positive impact she had on others. Mary's first two grandchildren were born the same year she retired, and thus began her adventure as Gma Condie. Her four grandchildren (TJ, Austin, Alexa, & Riley) became the light of her life. She delighted in every adventure that came with being a grandma. You could find her building train tracks or blanket forts, playing outside, dancing, singing, swimming, or nearly any activity the kids wanted. An overwhelming favorite included numerous summer days spent playing in Gma Condie's flood irrigation. She was a hands-on Grandma to the fullest extent, and lavished each grandchild with love that will last a lifetime. Mom was the epitome of kindness and compassion. As a life-long member of the First Christian Church, she lived her faith in action. Her love for others was infectious. John 15: 12 states, "This is my commandment that you love one another, just as I have loved you." Mom was gifted with the ability to "love one another." She was caring, compassionate, other focused, patient, and ever the optimist. Due to her outgoing and extremely extroverted personality, we (her children) often claimed, "Mom can talk to anyone, at any time, about anything, anywhere." She loved spending time with others. Encouraging them was a highlight of her life. She was a gifted Mom, Grandma, friend, cousin, aunt, sister, and coworker. Mom led a full and busy life. She treasured the seasons she spent waitressing at Deer Creek Lodge located at Anderson Ranch Reservoir. Patrons of all sorts frequented the cafe and Mom was in her element getting to know each of them. During this time, Mom married Reed Condie. They spent many summers camping in and enjoying the nature of Featherville, Idaho. Other seasons of Mom's life were spent square dancing. She regularly joined the dancers in Jerome and Twin as they sashayed their way around a square. Mom had numerous square dance outfits which the grandkids used during the off season for "costumes" and dress up.
Serving with all Gentleness & Compassion...
Another of Mom's favorite pastimes was putting together jigsaw puzzles. She spent hours alone and with friends piecing together a wide variety of puzzles. She loved the challenge of locating just the right piece, the camaraderie of working with a friend or family member and chatting while puzzling. She also enjoyed the beauty of the finished product. Mom shellacked, and mounted close to 40 of her favorite finished puzzles. Aside from the beauty of each puzzle, to Mom, the finished products represented enjoyable moments spent with others. Volunteering at the Hospital Auxiliary thrift store, and at the Gooding Senior Center, where she made many wonderful friends brought Mom great joy. Sorting clothing donations, setting up tables for the regular meals, taking tickets at the door, or helping balance the "books" and attendance ledgers gave Mom reason to be around others and contribute to her community. Mom's life was full of so much joy and so many adventures. One highlight was the family trip to the Oregon Coast in 2016, where we celebrated her 80th birthday. The week was spent enjoying time together laughing and having fun. Each day we celebrated our wonderful and amazing Mom and Grandma by giving her 80 of something that represented her. We accompanied these tokens by telling her stories and reliving memories about what made her so exceptional to us...she was the light of our family. An additional highlight was a recent trip in 2019 to Wilson, WY. The purpose of the trip was to attend the musical show put on by one of her favorite singing groups the Bar J Wranglers. Even though she attended numerous Bar J concerts, she enjoyed each performance like it was her first. Music was a part of Mom. She often hummed while working and readily had a tune in her heart. One of her favorite bedtime rituals was to lie in bed and sing herself to sleep. She sang gospel tunes alphabetically A-Z according to title until she drifted off to sleep. The next night she would sing tunes from Z to A. Mom was a constant source of support and guidance for our family, and her capacity for joy and love was limitless. We were blessed to have her as our Mom and Grandma. We miss her dearly, but we are thankful she can now dance and sing for eternity. Mary is survived by her three children; Julia Zarbnisky, Jenny (Tony) Schrock, and Tim Hoyle; four grandchildren (TJ Schrock, Austin (Cierra) Hoyle, Alexa (Cuyler) Alberda, and Riley Schrock); great grand-daughter Oakley; her sister Martha Shaffer of Las Vegas, Nevada and Martha's four children. Mary was preceded in death by her parents; and son-in-law (Darin Zarbnisky). We would like to acknowledge all of the friends and family who showed their love to Mom by calling, texting, helping, visiting, and interacting with her. She took delight in those moments, be they brief or extended; singular or ongoing. Love One Another. Please join us in celebration of Mom's life on Friday, August 20, 2021 at 1:30 pm at the First Christian Church in Gooding Bring a story to share about Mom, if you have one. Inurnment will follow at the Elmwood Cemetery in Gooding. If you are so inclined, in lieu of flowers (which always made Mom sneeze... haha) a donation to the Gooding Senior Center and/or the Gooding First Christian Church, would be greatly appreciated. Funeral and cremation arrangements are under the care and direction of Demaray Funeral Service – Gooding Chapel - www.demarayfuneralservice.com

Helen Margaret Alexander Jones
1-208-246-9999
Helen Margaret Alexander Jones, 99, passed away peacefully on January 6, 2021 at Starfish Care Center in Tucson, Arizona. Helen was born in 1921 and was raised in the lava rock home built by her parents from rocks picked to clear the fields of their homesteaded acreage. She first attended a one-room schoolhouse in Tuttle, Idaho where her mother, Alena Alexander, taught local students including her and her brothers. Later, she graduated in 1939 from Gooding High School. In 1941 Helen married James Wren Jones. They raised three daughters - Diane, Becky and Jocelyn. Together they farmed, raised Hereford cattle and milked dairy cows until 1953 when they moved into town and together with Wren's sister and brother-in-law, Rena and Albert Hall, they purchased what became Hall and Jones Chevron stations. While raising the girls, Helen worked several different part-time jobs including picking beans and sorting potatoes. Once the girls were in school, she became a full-time employee of the Idaho State School for the Deaf and Blind, first as a housekeeper and then as dormitory parent for the primary deaf girls' dorm. After retirement Helen and Wren began traveling in their motorhome, spending several winters in the Southwest, mostly in Arizona. Helen was a board member and active member of the United Methodist Church of Gooding, Worthy Matron of the Gooding Chapter of Rebekah's, and an active participant at the Gooding Sr. Center. In 2017, Helen moved to Tucson, Arizona where she enjoyed the daily company and loving care of Diane, Jocelyn and her granddaughter, Christina Lundy. Helen's and Wren's lives were filled with the company of many good friends, and their large extended family which included Helen's brothers - Eugene Alexander of Richfield, Idaho, Carl Alexander of Glenns Ferry, Idaho and Merrill Alexander of Gainesville, Florida and their wives and included 8 nieces and nephews. She was also very close to Wren's sisters, Ruth Maxwell, Rena Hall, Opal Lollar, Georgia Hoyt, all of Gooding, Idaho and Ora Spencer of San Bernardino, California and their husbands and included 16 nieces and nephews. Helen is preceded in death by: her husband – Wren; a granddaughter - Gina Lundy; her parents and all three of her brothers; all of her brothers-in-law, sisters-in-law and six nieces and nephews. She is survived by her daughters - Diane Jones Lundy and Jocelyn Jones Brown (Darwin Priebe) of Tucson, Arizona and Becky Jones Deibert (Ken) of McCall, Idaho; as well as nine grandchildren and eight great grandchildren. A memorial service will be held on Saturday, August 21, 2021 at 11:00 am at the Gooding United Methodist Church. Inurnment will follow at the Elmwood Cemetery in Gooding. Due to the Covid-19 pandemic, family recommends wearing of masks and recognizing social distancing recommendations. Local arrangements are under the care and direction of Demaray Funeral Service. Thank you to all of you who contributed to the joy of her long and productive life. The family asks that any memorial donations be made to either the United Methodist Church of Gooding or the Gooding Senior Center.
