MT. PLEASANT — Sanpete Valley Hospital recently recognized Moroni Ambulance as the recipients of the hospital’s Emergency Medical Service (EMS) Extraordinary Save award.

The program was originally launched in October 2014, in an ongoing effort from the hospital to acknowledge the heroic work of Sanpete County’s EMS and ambulance team.

“Having literally been born and raised in this business of health care; and observing the delivery of pre-hospital, trauma and in-patient services around the western United States, I can say that the care we have available to our community, is as good as anything I have seen. We want to recognize our EMS team for this “fantastic save;” they came together for your benefit. We value our EMS team and realize that they often serve with little recognition and minimal thanks,” stated Aaron Wood, Sanpete Valley Hospital’s CEO. Moroni Ambulance was selected for the award based on their large role in helping turn what could have been a tragic event into an extraordinary story.

On Sept.29, 2018, Moroni EMS was dispatched to a motorcycle accident.

Bystanders were first on the scene and were invaluable in their assistance prior to the arrival of Moroni EMS. Upon arrival, Moroni EMS team members: Heather Pecora, Joshua Pecora, Sean Rawlings, Verle Newling, and Alta Lynne Rasmussen immediately assessed the situation and made the call to Sanpete Valley Hospital initiating a Trauma 1 activation, who then dispatched Utah Valley Hospital, which resulted in

I don’t get sick very often.

I get a flu shot every year. I don’t know whether it does me any good or not; but I believe it does. Therefore, as an object of faith, I guess it works.

I even got another pneumonia shot a year or two ago.

They told me that it might be a good idea to have a second one. So I’m going to “believe” myself away from pneumonia for a while. I’ve had a shingles shot too. I hope that one works. I’ve known people who have suffered with that and it can be a miserable situation.

Regardless of my immunizations, I’ve had a goaround with being sick this winter. It’s never been quite bad enough to put me down in bed and get me out of work and church duties. (Dang it) But it has been annoying.

It’s mostly been symptomatic of a head and chest cold.

There’s been no fever and no sore throat. It’s just mainly been a case of the three “C’s:” Congestion, Cough, and Couch Potato’ism. Those “C’s” are listed in order of their respective aggravation.

I finally broke down and saw the doctor a couple of weeks ago. He said that there have been a lot of variations of “stuff ” going around Sanpete this winter. He theorized that my chief problem was a sinus infection. I did a 10-day treatment of an antibiotic and now I’m theorizing that I’m much improved.

It was about time for some improvement. Because as someone once said: “I’m sick and tired of being sick and tired!” (I looked it up. That quote is attributed to Fannie Lou Hamer, a women’s rights activist and a leader in the civil rights movement) Some people are quite susceptible to illness. They seem to catch every bug that comes down the pike. Being sick is just part of their lives and they seem to accept it. They are always either in some routine of prevention of illness or in the midst of treatment of the current sickness.

I’ve noticed that as a general rule, people are more polite and grateful when they’re not feeling well. I know the opposite can be true as well.

I heard a talk, here in Sanpete, by a quite famous, former heart transplant doctor who told of a guy who had just undergone a successful transplant. The patient was very sick. He had been waiting for a heart and was most likely going to die before one became available. A very

County by the Sanpete County Sheriff ’s Office on charges of open container, unlawful sale or supply of alcohol to a minor and a Sixth District Court Warrant. Bail was set at $32,060.

Jan. 19 Jesse Rhinn Gilstrap, Indianola, was arrested in Indianola by the Sanpete County Sheriff ’s Office on the charge of intoxication. Bail was set at $220.

Jan. 20 Jillian Lea Anderson, Moroni, was arrested in Moroni by the Sanpete County Sheriff ’s Office on charges of domestic assault and two counts

lucky situation materialized and he received a heart.

The day after the transplant surgery, as the doctor was approaching the patient’s room, he heard a noisy commotion. He saw that his patient was extremely agitated. The doctor was immediately worried about his condition. When asked what the matter was, the man fumed, “The oatmeal is cold!” He had been ranting and raving about the quality of hospital food.

Manners and gratitude, which one would think would be associated with the miracle of his being alive, were somehow not part of this patient’s personality. The doctor, by the way, was Dale G. Renlund, an apostle in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.

But in my experience, most of the time, sick people are nice. Perhaps they know that in their weakened condition, they can’t put up much of a fight. Sometimes being sick reminds us of our own mortality.

Of course, I think we naturally tend to treat those who are ill with more courtesy and care than we would treat them otherwise. That’s not surprising. And kindness does beget kindness.

When my kids were young and growing up, they always seemed to be little angels when their health was down.

When they had broken bones, surgeries, and sicknesses, it seemed to produce an abundance of courtesy and gratitude in them.

Perhaps this is why longterm illnesses sometimes seem to make positive changes in the lives of the patient and those who care for them. It’s often a case of bad things making better people out of people who are already mostly good anyway.

(Sounds like something that could be used for the title of some “chicken soup’ish” book, doesn’t it?)

In a perfect world, we’d never get sick. But, of course, this isn’t a perfect world.

Therefore, we have to be philosophical. In our imperfect world, people get sick, other people care about them and care for them, and everyone’s “souls” are improved at least just a little bit as a result.

So next time you’re sick, raise that “shot glass” of pink Pepto Bismo, Nyquil, or whatever it is, and toast the proposition that sickness makes you a better person. It might make you feel a little better, but I’m not guaranteeing anything.

North Ward School hosts escapee, mortuary JON SWAPP

Destination Main Street

Editor’s Note: Welcome to the Pioneer Association Archive, a look at some of the historical locations in Mt. Pleasant prior to the association’s annual homecoming luncheon to be held March 16, at the Mt. Pleasant North Stake Center of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, 461 North 300 West.

This year’s theme is “Looking Back in Time.” Doors open at 10:30 a.m., lunch at 12 noon.

MT. PLEASANT — Just one block north of Main Street, on 100 West in Mt. Pleasant, sitting amid the perfect landscaping and green lawn, the beautiful Rasmussen Mortuary can be found. Known to many local residents as the former Ursenbach Funeral home, the land upon which it sits started out just like most of the other homes and buildings in Mt. Pleasant.

The U.S. Government claimed ownership and the land was given by patent to William S. Seely, the town’s first Mayor. Mayor Seely issued a deed to William Morrison in behalf of Mt. Pleasant School District and in the late 1870s a school known as the North Ward School was built on the property. The building still stands on the corner of 100 West and 100 North and is one of the oldest buildings in the entire town of Mt. Pleasant.

The North Ward School used the building until 1898 when

the school moved into the Hamilton School which was a larger three story building. The Hamilton School was built in a style similar to what is now the Fairview Museum and has since been demolished. It was located where the current Mt. Pleasant Aquatic Center now stands, 74 East Main.

When the North Ward School moved out, ownership of the property was transferred to Mt. Pleasant City to be used as the city hall.

It is remembered that there was a large potbellied stove in the main large room to heat the building. On the East side of the building there was an old time, “western movie style” jail cell.

It was from that jail cell that a man waiting to face charges of murder escaped sometime in the early 1930s.

The name of the escapee and the particulars of the crime have faded from memory but the fright of some of the kids of that time hasn’t, as one Mt. Pleasant resident put it, ‘We did a good job of scaring ourselves about it.’ The escapee was later recaptured.

In December of 1939, Joseph and Amy Ursenbach bought the building. They remodeled, using half of the building for a funeral home and half for their living quarters. The building was only a one story building with very high ceilings but the Ursenbachs took advantage of the high ceilings and turned it into a two story with an upstairs.

The main bearing walls of

The building which once was North Ward School and Mt. Pleasant City Hall, is currently known as Rasmussen Mortuary, located at 96 North 100 West. The building has been in use for over 140 years. (Photo by Ray LaFollette, The Pyramid) the building are at least two feet thick. When the Ursenbachs bought the building there were large garages on the back of the building that were moved away by the city but the foundations had to be dynamited to be removed. The old school bell tower on the front of the building was also removed.

Ursenbachs lived in what is now the chapel, while the remodeling was being done.

Their living quarters were old fashioned, the kitchen had a coal stove, a table, and a sink built on a small make shift counter. The furnishings may have been sparse, but it was a different time and many things were done differently back then.

In those early days, much of what is now done in a funeral home was taken care of right in the deceased person’s own

home. Mr. Ursenbach would go to the deceased person’s home with his embalming kit and take care of everything right there.

Being around for more than a century, the old building has seen its share of hard times. In 1947, the building was flooded and the neighbor’s barn ended up in the yard. Some of the funeral home’s equipment was washed away. Flood mud can still be found in the basement.

In 1965, the building was purchased by Earl and Mary Ursenbach. Then in 1979, an addition was added on the north side of the building.

Amy Ursenbach still lived in the building and stayed active in the business until 1996 when she passed away.

In recent years, there have been many improvements to the building, including the return of the bell tower to the

Ursenbach’s portable embalming kit can be viewed by request at the Relic House Museum. It contains several items used in the process. Not shown is the cooling board which was placed under the body during embalming. (Photo by Ray LaFollette, The Pyramid)

Built in the late 1800s, the North Ward School eventually became Mt. Pleasant City Hall and has now served as a funeral home for almost 80 years. front which restored a view similar to the original look of the building. It would be nice if the original bell from the tower could be found and installed also.

In 2001, Mary Ursenbach sold the business and the building to Kelly Magelby. It was operated as the Magelby-Rasmussen Mortuary for a short time until it was sold to the Rasmus-

sen family. The business is now known as Rasmussen Mortuary and is operated by Jeff and Trish Rasmussen.

School, city hall and funeral home, in this building can be seen the many lives of an interesting and useful old building, after well over 140 years the community still sees benefits from the creative efforts of its pioneer progenitors.

Junior Brigham Lewis was the standout of the group as he broke three school records and qualified for state. He took first place in the 100 Breast Stroke against 40 competitors.

Lewis also set a new school record by beating the 200 Freestyle record by a whopping nine seconds. Again, Lewis, along with Alex Mower, Koby Smith, and Neil Briggs, broke the 200 Medley school record by three seconds.

However, it wasn’t just the boys who stole the show at region. Hope Christensen, Annika Black, Emmalene Palmer, and Natalie Day placed third in the 200 Medley and are awaiting to hear if they have qualified for state.

On top of being solid competitors, the Hawks also showed their academic achievements as Koby Smith, Bailey Hansen and Emmalene Palmer were granted Academic All-Region awards.

MT PLEASANT — North Sanpete’s Lady Hawk basketball team hosted in-town rivals Wasatch Academy in a thrilling competition. Scoring was close throughout the game, which was won by a slim margin of four points by the Wasatch Tigers.

Since both teams’ home courts reside in Mt. Pleasant, each knew that this would be a rivalry game for the books, and any spectator could see that the game was a little more physical than usual.

At the start of the first quarter both teams were putting points on the board. However, toward the end of the quarter, Wasatch’s #2 Duda sank two layups and free throws that brought the Tigers to 11 points, while the Hawks had scored five.

Although the Tigers had a solid lead, the Lady Hawks didn’t back down. With impressive defense, the Hawks were able to shut down the Tigers offense in the second quarter.

The Hawks also employed more precise ball movement which allowed several team members to score. At the end of the second quarter the Hawks had scored 13 points while holding the Tigers to only four additional points.

At the end of the first half the Lady Hawks led the Wasatch Tigers 18-15. When the third quarter started the physicality only heightened as each team battled for the lead.

Wasatch began to move the ball more efficiently on their end, opening up several scoring opportunities on which they capitalized. The Hawks

MT. PLEASANT — North Sanpete Boys Basketball Team hosted Grand and San Juan High Schools last weekend but were unable to secure a victory against either team.

Grand The Hawks and the Red Devils faced off on Thursday for the Hawks’ seventh region game matchup. When the first quarter began, Grand looked like they had definitely shown up to compete. The Hawks struggled to get momentum as Grand sank several shots scoring 22 points in the first quarter with the Hawks scoring 11.

At the start of the second quarter, the Hawks came out with more energy as their offense scored 17 points led by junior Scott Hatch who had a total of 13 points for the game.

However, the Hawks couldn’t shut down Grand’s offense as the Devils scored 20 points in the quarter bringing the score at the half to 42-28 in favor of Grand.

After the half, Grand protected their lead even more and never looked back. North Sanpete also had several starting players end up in foul trouble which forced head coach Cris Hoopes to bench many of his starting five. Grand capital-

ized on the Hawks frustration by scoring 17 points during the third quarter with the Hawks adding another 10.

The Hawks headed into the fourth quarter trailing the Devils 59-38. With the Hawks already in a foul trouble situation, any error they committed gave the Devil’s extra opportunities to score. The Devils capitalized on their one-andone situation and carried the momentum into the fourth quarter as the Hawks defense struggled to stop the Devils allowing them to score an additional 25 points from the field and the line.

With the Hawks scoring 10

also continued to be strong offensively with junior #2 Sarah Oldroyd scoring six of her nine total points for the Hawks.

At the end of the third quarter, Wasatch reclaimed the lead with a 26-24 score heading into the fourth quarter. When the fourth quarter began, both teams came out strong, but it was the Tigers who ended up on top.

Multiple players for Wasatch contributed points during the fourth and last quarter, but the Hawks struggled to find the hoop. Lady Hawk seniors #11 Linzy Flinders, and #10 Aubree Ison contributed the only points in the fourth quarter.

The Lady Hawks scored six more points but the Tigers edged them out by scoring nine. The Wasatch Tigers took the victory with a score of 3531.

points during the fourth, it was not enough to close the gap.

There was obvious frustration on the court as the buzzer rang out and the game ended with Grand 84 Hawks 48.

San Juan The Hawks continued on into Saturday hosting region leaders San Juan. North Sanpete left their previous loss to Grand in the past as they fought hard against the Broncos. During the first quarter, the Hawks scored 11 points and the Broncos scored 16.

LaRane B. Arnoldson 1930~2019 MORONI-- Rinda LaRane Bjerregaard Arnoldson peacefully passed on the evening of Jan. 23, 2019, next to her husband of over 72 years. Her passing was just three days shy of her 89th birthday.

LaRane was born in Ephraim, UT; on Jan. 26, 1930, to Gladys and Marlin Bjerregaard.

She attended schools in Ephraim including high school classes taught at Snow College.

LaRane became the young bride of Elliot J. Arnoldson, a returning World War II veteran on July 16, 1947, and she completed high school in Moroni.

LaRane and Elliot began their lives in a small adobe house north of town where their only daughter, Rinda, began their rather large family.

They soon moved to Preston, Idaho where Elliot taught school and finished his Bachelor Degree. While in Preston, they welcomed their first son, Gary, to the family.

After graduation, the farm called them back to Sanpete which seemed to prove a trend: every time they moved, a new child joined the family. Clair was born while Elliot farmed, taught school, and LaRane cared for her growing brood.

The next move took them to Seattle, WA; where Layne was born and the young family thoroughly enjoyed the verdant green forest and abundant sea of Washington.

Another move to Milford, UT; must have been a bridge too far because the stay was short but, you guessed it, another son, Earl, was on the way.

Finally, their nomadic lifestyle ended where it began; under the snowcapped mountains of Sanpete County where their final issue, Wesley, joined the family.

A permanent home afforded LaRane the opportunity to excel in nurturing her family and serving her church and community.

She was, without doubt, the nucleus of her family and rejoiced in the accomplishments of her six children, 20 grandchildren and 37 grandchildren. She never forgot a birthday and her generosity knew no bounds.

LaRane was a teller for First Security Bank where she thoroughly enjoyed her association with colleagues and customers. She was active in civic and church affairs as a humble servant.

LaRane found joy and solace in her family and friends, painting, traveling and many outdoor activities. She was principled in her sense of justice and value of education, which will undoubtedly be her lasting legacy.

LaRane will be terribly missed by her husband, Elliot, and her grateful family: daughter, Rinda (John), sons, Gary (Leslie), Clair (deceased), Layne (Sheri), Earl (Christine), Wesley (Ellen) and daughter-in-law and sonin-law, JoAnn and Allan Nielsen. She is also survived by a sister, Eileen, brother, Perry.

LaRane is preceded in death by her son, Clair, her parents, brothers, Don and Russell; and sister, JoAnn. A viewing will be held from 6-8 p.m., Thursday, Feb. 7 at Rasmussen Mortuary, 96 North 100 West, Mt. Pleasant.

Funeral services will be held at 11 a.m., Feb. 8, in the Moroni Stake Center of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, with a viewing from 9:30 to 10:30 a.m., prior to services.

Interment will be in the Moroni City Cemetery.

The family would like to thank the dedicated professionals at Sanpete Valley Hospital, Country Lane Assisted Living Center, and Justin (momʼs nurse). Their compassionate service to LaRane and her family did not go unnoticed.

HAWKS From AA4

North Sanpete scoring 20 and San Juan scoring 21. The score heading in the second half was San Juan 37, North Sanpete 31.

During the third quarter, the Hawks continued to hold on scoring 26 points with the Broncos only scoring 20. The Hawks had tied up the game with the Broncos and had high hopes for the fourth quarter.

However, the Hawks again found themselves in foul trouble toward the end of the third quarter which provided the

Broncos several opportunities to pull away from the Hawks.

During the fourth quarter, San Juan sprinted into the lead outscoring the Hawks 28-12.

Turnovers and foul trouble became a struggle for the Hawks as the Broncos made 20-of-31 free-throws and only had nine turnovers, while the Hawks made 9-of-16 free-throws and had 18 turnovers.

In the end, the Broncos secured an 85-69 victory over the Hawks. Currently the Hawks are 0-8 in region and traveled to South Sevier on Wednesday.

A reception will be held from 6:30 to 8 p.m., at the Fairview Museum of History and Art, 85 North 100 East. Their art will be on display through Friday, April 5.

DeAnn Barentsen DeAnn Barentsen was born in Murray, and is the daughter of Wendel and Nora Christensen, Fairview. She was four years old when the family moved to Fairview. She loves Fairview, and had a wonderful childhood while being raised there.

After high school, Barentsen attended cosmetology school and became a hair dresser, which she worked as for over 25 years. She loves to be creative and so she enjoyed styling hair.

She also enjoyed tole painting classes and became very good at it. Interior decorating is another of the things she loves and always wanted her home to look special.

DeAnn married her high school sweetheart, Jerry Barentsen and her adventure started. Jerry’s employment gave them the opportunity to live in several states and with each move had the opportunity to decorate many different homes.

The couple have five children, 14 grandchildren, and eight great-grandchildren who bring much joy to their lives.

Barentsen relates that, while living in Denver Colorado many years ago, she started teaching tole painting classes in her home. Then she decided

The artistic talents of (left to right) DeAnn Barentsen, Ron Giles and Ervin Shelley will be featured in the Fairview Museum Rotating Artist Gallery. The show will be opened with a reception on Friday, Feb. 15, from 6:30 – 8 p.m., in the Fairview Museum of History and Art, 85 North 100 East. Their art will be on display through Friday, April 5. to become adventuresome and tried oil painting on her own but really had no idea what she was doing.

When they moved back to Fairview, she finally had the opportunity to take oil painting classes from Marie Lindahl.

Barentsen says Lindahl is a great instructor and a lot of fun. She is now in her fourth year of classes with Lindahl and reports that she has learned a lot and hopes to continue improving her painting skills.

Ron Giles Ron Giles was born and raised in Mt. Pleasant, where he attended the local schools, as well as Snow College. He married Kathie Johnson, Fairview, and the couple have lived in Fairview for the past 50 years. They are the parents of three children and have 10 grandchildren.

Giles worked for and retired from Rocky Mountain Power and also retired from the Utah

National Guard after 22 years of service. He served Fairview for 16 years as a councilman and as the city Mayor.

He and his wife built the Fairview City parade float for 23 years and they were also the general chairpersons of Fairview’s Pioneer Days for 13 years. In addition, Giles and his wife were both honored as distinguished alumni at Snow College in the year 2000.

Giles remarked, “I have always loved to work with my hands, but most of all I wanted to paint pictures. I would watch these artists on TV and wish I could do that, but I have some color blindness so I just never tried to paint.”

“Someone told my wife about an art class being taught by Marie Lindahl at the Fairview Museum and that is where it all started,” he says.

“This is my third year in the class, Marie has been so helpful. She is one awesome lady. It

is so fun to take a blank piece of canvas and then see what the end result is.”

“Sometimes,” he says, “you might want to throw it away and another time you want to show the world. Last year I took two paintings to the Sanpete County Fair. I received a blue ribbon on one and a sweepstakes ribbon on the other. It has been challenging and has been fun.”

Ervin Shelley Ervin Shelley was born in Mountainville, and was the fifth-of-nine children, his twin brother being the sixth. He went to school in Mt. Pleasant and started taking art classes from Max Blain.

Shelley painted with water colors and enjoyed it. He kept taking art classes through high school and after high school he moved to Salt Lake City where he lived with his brother and sister-in-law. His first oil painting was completed while living there. He still has that painting, and states, “that it turned out pretty good for me.”

After serving a mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, he married his wife, Loretta, and they have been married for 53 years. After a couple of years in the military they moved back to Fairview and he started taking art classes from Kathy Cieselwiez.

Shelley and his sister also took classes from an artist in Nephi. After that he took classes from Marie Lindahl. He skipped a couple of years and then started back again. He has sold a few paintings in the area, but he still strives to become a better painter. He enjoys the process.

the viewing locations will start flying to trees to roost for the night. Mid to late afternoon is usually the best time to see the greatest number of eagles.

Travel directions The fish hatchery is located about one mile west of Fountain Green on State Route 132, watch for a Bald Eagle Day sign which will point to an access road.

If coming from the Nephi area, take Interstate 15 and exit the freeway at the second Nephi exit (Exit 225). After exiting the freeway, turn east on state Route 132 and travel about 10 miles. About one mile before the city of Fountain Green, a Bald Eagle Day sign will point towards an access road that leads to the hatchery.

Get a close look Once arriving at the hatchery, viewers will receive a driving map of the Sanpete Valley that highlights the best areas in the

valley to view eagles. Literature, displays and bathroom facilities will also be available at the hatchery.

Spotting scopes will be set-up at a nearby location where eagles often gather in a large tree. The viewing site is about one mile from the hatchery.

Matt Bartley, wildlife recreation coordinator for the Division of Wildlife Resources (DWR) says, “If you have any challenges spotting the eagles our biologists and volunteers will help you find them. We’d also be happy to answer any questions you have.” Viewers can also pick up a free Bald Eagle Month button.

Items to bring Those who plan to attend any of the events should dress in warm clothes and bring waterproof boots. Also, photographers who want to take photos of the eagles should bring a telephoto lens for their camera.

“You need a telephoto lens to get good, close-up shots of the eagles,” Bartley says. “The eagles will be fairly close to the viewing sites, but you still need a telephoto lens to get good photos of them.”

located just west of Fountain Green. Viewing will be available from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. In addition, free tours of the Fountain Green State Fish Hatchery will also be offered.

Bald eagles fly to Utah in the winter to find food and escape the colder conditions farther north. By the time February arrives, hundreds of eagles are in the state.

February is a great time to see the eagles and learn more about them during Bald Eagle Month.

Seeing the eagles is free.

Spotting scopes will be available at the various locations in the state, but if a person has their own scope, or a pair of binoculars, they are recommended to bring them along to view the eagles.

Best time to attend The best time to see eagles depends on what’s most important to the viewer, either staying as warm as possible or seeing more eagles!

If staying warm is most important, attend late in the morning or early in the afternoon. The warmer temperatures during this time of the day are especially important if bringing young children along.

Late morning and early afternoon is also the best time to get a clear view of the eagles.

If the viewer wants to see the greatest number of eagles—with fairly good light conditions and reasonably warm temperatures — attend between 2 and 4 p.m.

After 4 p.m., eagles at many of
