GOED announces two rural business grant programs SALT LAKE CITY — The Utah Governor’s Office of Economic Development, Office of Rural Development, recently announced two new grant programs, stemming from the 2019 Utah Legislative session, to serve rural organizations and businesses. Organizations (nonprofit and divisions of higher education) and businesses in Utah’s rural communities can apply for the Rural Coworking and Innovation Center Grant and the Rural Rapid Manufacturing Grant programs. These programs were approved in the 2019 Legislative session and will enable rural communities to continue to prosper. “These two new programs are both aimed at supporting businesses,” said Ginger Chinn, managing director for urban and rural business services at the Utah Governor’s Office
of Economic Development. “Supporting and expanding businesses, while attracting new businesses, contributes to economic development in key ways. I look forward to working with our communities to use these new tools in the toolbox.” Highlights of the grant programs include: Rural Rapid Manufacturing Grant The state allocated $500,000, a one-time appropriation for this grant, beginning July 1, 2019, and ending June 30, 2020. Developed by Rep. Christine Watkins and Sen. David Hinkins, the grant will assist in the establishment of laboratories designed to train students and employees, build and improve equipment and offer scholarships. Applications will be received now until Sept.1, and projects must be completed within 18
months. Applicants must submit an application that is reviewed and then scored. Rural Coworking and Innovation Center Grant The state allocated $500,000 per fiscal year (July 1 through June 31) for this program. The Rural Online Working Hubs Grant Advisory Committee, will advise and make recommendations to the Office of Rural Development on grant awards. This grant program, authored by Rep. Carl Albrecht and Sen. Ralph Okerlund, will assist in creating facilities that provide individuals working in rural communities with infrastructure and equipment to participate in the online workforce. Qualifying activities include: Construction or renovation
of a facility; extending or improving utilities and broadband service connections; purchasing equipment, furniture and security systems. To learn more about these programs visit the Office of Rural Development’s website. About the Utah Governor’s Office of Economic Development (GOED) Under the direction of Gov. Gary R. Herbert, the Utah Governor’s Office of Economic Development (GOED) provides resources and support for business creation, growth and recruitment, and drives increased tourism and film production in Utah.

Spencer Cox celebrates birthday, raises nearly $10,000 for refugees SALT LAKE CITY — Instead of raising money for his gubernatorial campaign, Lt. Gov. Spencer Cox used his 44th birthday to raise funds and awareness for refugees in Utah. In total, $9,332 was raised for the International Rescue Committee (IRC) to invest in local refugee services. “This is what makes Utah so unique and why our state continues to enjoy widespread success,” said Spencer Cox. “Government wasn’t designed to solve every problem; it was designed on the premise that business, non-profit and faith-based organizations would lead out to improve communities. Tonight, we did that.” The event, held at Cotopaxi on Friday night, brought an estimated 200 Utahns together to support local refugee services. The Spice Kitchen, a business incubator that encourages refugee culinary entrepreneurs, catered the event. All proceeds will be used in Utah by the IRC to assist refugees with emergency housing, domestic violence services, fe-
male and child healthcare and economic empowerment training. “I’ve never seen a political campaign seek to make a difference like Spencer Cox continues to do,” said Davis Smith, founder and CEO of Cotopaxi. “Rather than use this opportunity to raise money for his success, he’s actively finding ways to unite our state toward helping others. Our company’s motto is ‘Do Good’, and no one embodies this better than Spencer.” Since launching his campaign for Governor in May, Lt. Gov. Cox has made service a priority. To date, Cox has participated in more than a dozen projects across the state during his tour of all 248 Utah cities and towns, including making phone calls to military veterans, restoring historic churches and even repairing potholes. “Abby and I are doing this to make a difference. We’re tired of politics of old, and hope that we can set a new standard for how campaigns should be run,” said the Lt. Governor.
Spencer Cox celebrated his 44th birthday by raising almost $10,000 for the International Rescue Committee (IRC) that assists refugees with emergency housing, domestic violence services, female and child healthcare and economic empowerment training.

Is Sanpete Cosmopolitan? If I were doing a word association exercise, it might go something like this: Black (White); Turkey (Thanksgiving); Car (Repairs) Fast (Ticket) Cosmopolitan (Cleavage). What I tried to do there was to show that many of us don’t have much association for the word “cosmopolitan” beyond the famous magazine that showcases a woman of striking physical features each month on its cover. A lot of people are familiar, at least with the cover, of “Cosmo.” For the educational edification of all of us, whether it is first time knowledge or a refreshing of knowledge, here are the relevant definitions of “cosmopolitan” from my trusty college Random House Dictionary: “Cosmopolitan (koz’ meh pol’ i tuhn) 1) adjective – definition: belonging to all the world; not limited to just one part of the political, social, commercial, or intellectual world. 2) Noun – definition: a person who is free from local, provincial, or national prejudices, etc.; a citizen of the world…” So, as Sanpeters, now that we know what cosmopolitan means, it’s only natural to ask ourselves, “Are we cosmopolitan?” I’ve seen some high school and college girls around here who look cosmopolitan. But that doesn’t count. That’s just me reverting back to the first mentioned, word association, non-definition of the word. (I’ll try to get that out of my head.) I think many of us would immediately wave off any thoughts that Sanpete is cosmopolitan. But I think that would be hasty thinking. Consider a few facts. 1) Sanpete has a significant Hispanic community, which contributes to the diversity of our population. We, and our children, learn, right here in Sanpete, that cultures and languages can be different among neighbors and fellow students. 2) The temple in Manti attracts people from around the world to Sanpete. This was especially true during the annual two-week pageant. Even though the pageant has been discontinued, many visitors will still come to Sanpete because of the temple. 3) Sanpete is loaded with men and women who have lived abroad. Many of these folks have been in the military. Many more are people who have served religious missions. There are people who live here who are familiar with the cultures and languages of; I dare say, the majority of the countries of the world. 4) Sanpete has been a popular place for international students to come to school – both at Snow College and on high school programs. Personally, our family has hosted a dozen or more of these students for significant periods of time. We still have contact with many of them. I believe that now is a great time for us to be thinking in a cosmopolitan way. Now, more than ever, the world is a
global community. It’s also a global economy. Things that happen on one side of the world have a ripple effect that goes to the other side. All the hubbub with the European Union and trade agreement negotiations, etc. are examples of that. The world is in turmoil and there are people on the move. The refugee and immigrant situation in many areas of the world is overwhelming. I know it’s a touchy subject in the world. How many can any one country take in? And how fast can they do it. As of 2017, the latest figures I was able to find, Utah had about 60,000 refugees living here, according a University of Utah report. I would say that’s a pretty high number for little old Utah. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Catholic Community Services and many other religious organizations, have the continued position of providing relief and help for those in need. The LDS Church has initiated an effort called “I Was a Stranger” which emphasizes helping refugees. See: churchofjesuschrist.org/ refugees A while back, I was impressed to hear a humble, young man give a talk in a church meeting here in Sanpete. He told of meeting a couple from India at a restaurant in Utah County. He found out about their difficult and abusive circumstances. They had gotten to the United States and Utah under some misrepresented promises and were now essentially in bondage. The young man wanted to help, but didn’t know what to do. But he remembered that he belonged to a church that taught love to all, regardless of their faith. He made phone calls. People helped. An attorney got involved and over time straightened out legal matters – pro bono. Night has turned into day for this couple because someone was a “cosmopolitan, citizen of the world” in behalf of someone in need. The bible parable of the Good Samaritan can be a reality. Let’s celebrate cosmopolitan Sanpete. Granted, we’re not New York City. But we don’t want to be New York City. It’s just good to be in a place where we have opportunities to understand that the world is not a mirror image of what our lives are like here in America and in Utah’s Sanpete. Different points of view, tolerance, perspective, friendship, creative problem solving, respect for diversity and fun are the positive by-products that come to my mind when I think of living a cosmopolitan lifestyle. Being a cosmopolitan doesn’t mean abandoning beliefs and opinions. It means broadening horizons and inviting the world to know you, and who you are, as you get acquainted with the world. I will now come down off from my “soap box.” It’s a great summer in Sanpete. Enjoy!

Leo O. Osborne 1936 ~ 2019 NEPHI-- Leo Osman Osborne, beloved father and grandfather, passed away July 12, 2019, surrounded by his family after a courageous battle with cancer. Leo was born the third child out-of-three sons Oct. 16, 1936, in Spring City, UT; to William Virgus and Athene Osborne. He graduated from North Sanpete High School, where he was involved in sports, speech and debate, and drama. He also graduated from Snow College and attended Brigham Young University (BYU). He married Lou Ann Hafen Dec. 9, 1955, in the Manti Temple of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. He and Lou Ann raised four children, Lyle, Laura Lee, Lance and Lorette, and lived in Nephi, UT; for 56 years. Leo was an active member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints where he served in many callings including Scout leader, Elders Quorum presidency, Sunday School teacher and president, and assistant ward clerk for 36 years. He was also active in the community, helping with little league baseball and football. He enjoyed advising the Juab High School Rodeo Club, but one of his greatest accomplishments and enjoyments was being a member of the Ute Stampede Committee. He served on this committee for 49 years and Leo made life-long friendships with the men and women he served with. Leo worked for the Juab County ASCS office as a manager, and through this employment, he was involved in the National Association of ASCS where he was voted as the vice-president and president of the Utah group. He went on to serve as the secretary-treasurer with the national group of the NASCOE for 13 years and RASCOE for seven years. Through these groups Leo traveled the country and was well known and respected for his work. Leo enjoyed the time he spent each year hunting the Spring City Mountains with his dad, brothers, sons, grandsons and nephews. He loved his family very much and he did everything he could for each individual to show them how much Grandpa Ozzie loved them. He could be heard at every function his children and grandchildren were involved in, either cheering them on or trying to make his point. He is survived by his children, Lyle (Jodie) Osborne, Laura Lee (Kevin) Ockey, Lance (Tausha) Osborne, and Lorette Nielsen. He was preceded in death by his loving wife of 63 years, Lou Ann Hafen Osborne, his parents, and his two brothers, Connell and Glen Osborne. The family wishes to express their gratitude to all of you for your many acts of kindness and love. Graveside services will be held at 11 a.m., Thursday, July 18, in the Spring City Cemetery. A viewing will be held from 6-8 p.m., Wednesday, July 17, at Anderson Funeral Home, 94 West 300 North in Nephi.

MT. PLEASANT-- Dr. Roland Deloy (RD) Mower, 90, after living a very full and rewarding life passed away on July 8, 2019. RD was born on Christmas Day, Dec. 25, 1928, in Mt. Pleasant. He lived in Fairview, where he attended school through the ninth grade when he dropped out to join the Navy at age 16. RD served in the Navy during the final stages of World War II stationed in the Pacific until 1948. Following his time in the Navy, RD met and married Nona Iva Lee Hall in Folkston, GA. Desiring additional education, RD enrolled at the University of Utah and earned both a Bachelorʼs of Science in Geography and a commission in the United States Air Force. Early in his Air Force career, RD became a pilot and eventually became an instructor pilot. During this time, RD earned a Masterʼs of Science degree at Oklahoma State University. From 1967-1968, RD spent a year in Vietnam, as required, before he could begin work on his Ph.D. at the University of Kansas. Upon completion of his degree, RD returned to full time active duty until his retirement in 1974, totaling 23 years of active duty service in the military. During his time in the service he earned many honors. In 1974, RD started a second career in higher education as a professor of geography at the University of North Dakota. During his 14-year career, RD spent several years as the chairman of the geography department. RD left North Dakota in 1988 after accepting a job as a dean at Embry-Riddle University in Prescott, AZ. He served in this capacity until 1994 when he retired to his home state of Utah and he and Nona moved to Mt. Pleasant and raised emus, llamas, peacocks and potbellied pigs. RD has remained active in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. He served in many capacities including branch president in North Dakota, high counselor, elderʼs quorum president, and served in the branch presidency in Vietnam. RD and Nona served in the Manti Temple for 10 years. He also served in the VFW and enjoyed riding in the parades and participating in memorials for his fallen comrades. He enjoyed reading and writing. He was always learning and wrote multiple books about his life and the life of those in the Fairview area. RD spent many years researching and documenting his and Nonaʼs genealogy. He looked forward to hunting and fishing and often returned to Utah to hunt and fish with family. One of his favorite past times and greatest talents was telling stories. RD leaves behind his wife of 70 years, Nona Iva Lee Hall Mower; daughters, Carol L. Clawson, South Jordan; and Christi L. Edwards (Brad), Chino Valley, AZ; sons, Roland C. Mower (Charlotte), Medina, TX; and Richard H. Mower (Tina), Bismarck, ND; Minh Dang (Anh), Garden Grove, CA. He is also survived by his sisters, Lynne Jensen, Fairview; and Emily Lillie, South Jordan; brother-in-law, William Hall, and sister-in-law, Waunell Hall, Mershon, GA; 19 grandchildren and 34 great-grandchildren and two great-great-grandchildren.
