VETERANS DAY 2020
Don’t forget Sanpete veterans next week As we approach Veterans Day this year we would, as always, encourage people in our communities to remember and honor our service veterans. This year the veteran organizations in Sanpete County issue an invitation to all veterans to join a post in your community. On Veterans Day and Memorial
Day our veterans receive a well-deserved, if not somewhat limited, recognition. No one has sacrificed more for the freedom, integrity and values of our country. Unfortunately, too many of our veterans suffer health and social issues that may be related to military service. Where does a veteran in need seek help to receive
the benefits they earned by service to our country? Fortunately, we have veteran organizations in our county that can help, but we need the help of veterans to strengthen our veterans organizations in this effort. Sanpete County has five active veteran organizations, four American Legion Posts and one Veterans of
Foreign Legion Post. Nationally both organizations have been in existence for more than one hundred years. Both have been chartered by the U.S. Congress: Centerfield American Legion Post 107, serving Gunnison Valley, Manti American Legion Post 31, serving Ephraim and Manti area, Mt. Pleasant American Legion Post
4, serving Fairview, Mt. Pleasant and Spring City, Moroni American Legion Post 107, serving Ft. Green, Wales, Chester, and Moroni, and Veterans of Foreign Post 9276 located in Mt. Pleasant, with members from many communities. Please see VETERANS, Page A2
Outing turns into rescue Fatigue: We’ve All Got It
I
’ve been hearing the word “fatigue” a lot lately. People are talking about “Covid or Pandemic Fatigue” and “Election Fatigue.” I think I’m suffering from both of those varieties. Most of us can’t help but be tired of those kinds of “tirednesses.” I don’t know when we’ll get relief from Pandemic Fatigue. I’ve gotten to the point that I’m skeptical of anyone who thinks they know when this will all go away. My son reminded me a two or three months ago that just because we’re tired of it doesn’t mean that the virus is going away. I was tired then. And cases are spiking now. I’m tired of not being able to visit people “normally.” I’m tired of fogged up reading glasses even after I’ve adjusted my mask twenty times. I’m tired of seeing people in Wal-Mart as threats to my life. I could do a dozen more of these “I’m tired of” sentences and I’d just be getting started. I guess we’ll just all have to do our best as we start into the cold weather, more time indoors, traditional family gathering, holiday season. Our fatigue is going to tempt us to get careless. I’m hoping we can hold out together with a semigood attitude of “misery loves company” while still finding ways to find connections with friends and family. Election Fatigue and/ or Political Fatigue is another matter. Can you believe the avalanche of political advertising that went on? Just what
happened in the 4th Congressional District, which covers the north end of Sanpete, was crazy. Just think what could have been done with the money that was spent on the race between Ben McAdams and Burgess Owens. Last I looked McAdams had spend $4.8 million and the Owens spending was about $3.7 million. Wouldn’t it be great if a few of those millions had been donated to food and clothing banks? They fought tooth and nail for that seat in Congress. In my view, the TV advertising was contentious and relentless. I could scarcely bear to watch any of the Utah stations because the political advertising was so pervasive. The “mud” flew. I can’t help but be reminded of a Mark Twain quote. “Suppose you were an idiot. And suppose you were a member of Congress. But I repeat myself.” A bright spot in the politicking of the season was the series of TV ads featuring the major party candidates for governor. Republican Spencer Cox (our own Sanpete “boy” and current Lt-Governor) and Democrat Chris Peterson made ads together that focused on civility, kindness, and the smooth transition of power. These ads went viral and attracted the attention of the major television networks. I saw the two candidates interviewed on Good Morning America and The Today Show. I’m sure Please see OGDEN, Page A2

LEFT: A white American Pyrenees dog, seen in this photo, still wanders in the Skyline Drive area. RIGHT: Mani Grewal, seen here on the steps of the State Capitol, is pushing to initiate legislation that will protect working dogs. BY GLORIA ALBRECHT
A family’s side-by-side outing through Fairview Canyon and up to Skyline Drive on October 4th took a surprise turn when Mani Grewal, traveling with his wife and daughter, stopped to take pictures at an overlook at the intersection of Mt. Pleasant Canyon. Fifteen hundred feet down and a mile away in the valley they saw movement among the bushes; a fox or perhaps a coyote. Watching through his binoculars Grewal soon determined that it was a large dog, and with the dog was perhaps a puppy. After alerting several passers-by of the situation the Grewal’s began to search further down the trail for the dog. Lost or worse yet abandoned, the dog and puppy were at risk with fall weather on the horizon when tempera-
tures are known to plummet rapidly in the Utah mountains. The Grewal’s coincidentally met a good citizen from Santaquin, identified only as Robert, who had found two puppies amid the brush, while another party in the search discovered three more puppies. The little puppies were about eight weeks old and the Grewal’s reports that since then they have all been adopted. Happy ending! But not really. The mother dog was still on the mountain, and a week later the Grewal’s went back up to Skyline Drive for another look. Heading towards the powerline from Fairview Canyon and then onto the powerline trail, moving in a westerly direction and picnicking along the way, Mani and his wife saw the big dog once again. Once again, she remained elusive and they couldn’t catch her
to bring her to safety. Still searching for the dog, Grewal put postings on Facebook, but with no positive results. Meanwhile another couple from Mt. Pleasant who met the Grewal’s on Skyline Drive found and rescued another lost dog, a boxer, who was in bad shape. Upon hearing about the search, friends from Draper joined the Grewals several days later, forming teams to look for the big dog who by this time was thought to be an American Pyrenees. They spotted the dog and in trying to reach her discovered a sixth puppy who by this time was too weak to move and severely emaciated. After administering small amounts of water and food to the puppy it perked up, and the Please see RESCUE, Page A2
TV episode features Sanpete County BY MONTE BONA
A new episode of Discovery Road called “Road Trip” travels through Sanpete Valley as it leads to simple and wonderful things that are certainly worth stopping for. Discovery Road Show producer and creator James Nelson says this episode offers stories that will excite and inspire people to start planning their next road trip. This documentary series, produced by The Mormon Pioneer National Heritage Area (MPNHA), takes viewers along the Heritage Highway U.S. 89 in Airstream trailers. Surprising discoveries along the
road include a town named Freedom, an outdoor movie theatre and a homemade pizza truck. “I think the car, the family and a map still work for everyone,” Nelson says. “This program is an entertaining glimpse into Airstream history and a sample of what a night at the drive-in is like. Toss in some roadside pizza and an open road discovery of real freedom and you’ve got a pretty darn good show.” The half-hour program started out to explore what people eat on the road and where they get their food. The answer is pretty much everything and everywhere. It also features a brief history of Air-
stream creator Wally Byam, who was born on July 4, 1896 in Baker City on the Oregon Trail. He knew his grandparents had traveled west in a covered wagon fully outfitted with food, water and a stove. It all inspired him to create the Airstream trailer, Nelson says. He built his first travel trailer, tested it and streamlined it. The Airstream continues today! An intriguing segment of this episode comes forward when Discovery Road introduces viewers to professional photographer George Frey, who has taken hundreds of thousands of photographs Please see ROAD TRIP, Page A6

Erwin Jay Smith 1948-2020
Erwin Jay Smith passed away on the 18th of October 2020 at home due to complications from cancer. Erwin was born on December 7th, 1948 to Mahlon and Annie Mae (Gardiner) Smith, the second of seven children. He attended school in Lindon and Pleasant Grove graduating in 1967. He served in the Alaska/British Columbia LDS mission. He continued to serve the LDS church during his life in many capacities throughout the years to include: Bishopric, Sunday School Teacher, Young Men’s, and as a Temple Worker which he truly enjoyed. He married Deon Beveridge for time and all eternity on March 4, 1971 in the Salt Lake Temple. They were blessed/cursed (depending on one’s point of view) with three sons; Brett, Kayle and Justin. Erwin worked hard throughout his life as a brick mason and coal miner. He was never one to shirk from a tough day’s work, taking pride in the fact that he made an honest living. He also served in the Utah National Guard, retiring as a Sergeant First Class. Erwin was proud of his time in Delta and Alpha companies of the 1457th Engineer Battalion and of his service in support of Desert Storm. After finishing his service to his country in uniform, he continued to serve as he revitalized the American Legion Post 4 in Mt. Pleasant during which time he served as the commander for several years. Erwin supported his three sons and their families in all their endeavors throughout the years. Grandpa Erwin and Grandma Deon were delighted with their 19 grandchildren as they tried to attend most events of grandchildren’s events to support them. It didn’t matter whether it was football, dance,

Rescue From A1
following day, back in Draper, was adopted into its forever home. Disturbed by these events, avid dog lover Grewal who lives in Draper and has a home in Fairview as well, contacted authorities. The dogs, presumably brought to the mountains by sheepherders, needed protection. In Utah as well as in neighboring ranching states like Idaho, Montana and Colorado ranchers consider herding dogs a tool of the trade much like trailers and camps. But these loyal dogs, who are fiercely protective of their sheep herds often get separated from their herd when the camp moves to a new location or worse yet, abandoned or culled when the livestock is moved to the valley in the autumn. Grewal, whose family are passionate about community ties and preserving history, has initiated a push to create legislation to protect these dogs humanely. He has contacted Jeff Stenquist, Utah House Representative for District 51, to advocate his cause. Stenquist, who is up for re-election on November 3rd, is working on sample legislation that will ensure
Tracy is survived by her husband Chad; children, Candice (Layne) Holman and Lindsay (Brady) Wootton; three grandchildren; mom, Elva Porter and sister, Kim (Dale) Sanderson.

A viewing will be held Friday, November 6 from 6:00 to 8:00pm and Saturday, November 7 from 9:3010:30am and Rasmussen Mortuary in Mt. Pleasant. Graveside services will be held at 11:00am in the Mt. Pleasant Cemetery. Online condolences at rasmussenmortuary.com The State of Utah and Tracy’s family ask if you are attending please wear a mask.
that sheep dogs get licensed, get vaccinated and get health care like other domesticated family dogs. And since it is a felony in Utah to commit animal abuse, the legislation will protect ranchers and sheep herders as well since their dogs will be better cared for. In the meantime, as humans, we need legislation that would help accountability for abandoning the dogs on Skyline Drive and other areas and try to help the Peruvian herders and the ranchers to cope with the situation. Through legislation, and a program to educate sheep herders, the safety and health of these loyal dogs can be protected. Grewal informed us that many groups are likely to contribute to a program to neuter and vaccinate the dogs, and after presenting his ideas to others the positive feedback is overwhelming. For animal lovers here in Sanpete County and throughout the mountain west this is a cause worth fighting for. Grewal is thankful to all the people who volunteered in the process, including friends from West Haven, Heber City, Draper, Fairview, Mt. Pleasant, and organizations including Wag n Train, Coalition for LGD, and Home Plate Cafe restaurant and Big Pine Sports.

Marilyn Seely Sorensen March 13, 1936 — October 16, 2020
Marilyn was born on March 13, 1936 in Mt. Pleasant, Utah to Ray Edwin and Mildred Morley Seely. She was the sixth of eight children. Marilyn was a free spirit. She was known for always hopping in the car and being willing to go anywhere with anyone. She wanted to be in on all of the good times, the laughter, the conversations, the games, the trips and the adventures. As a young girl, she tried to get out the door and make it to the bushes, because if she accomplished that she was free for the day and no one would come after her. She had an optimistic, happy outlook and a sense of wonder and curiosity about the world. As a child she was called “Honey” because of the beautiful color of her eyes, but her nickname also described her sweet disposition. She fell in love with her high school sweetheart and they married at a young age and started a family of their own. At the age of 23 she and David had five children under the age of seven. She filled her days with baking bread (5 loaves at a time with extra dough for scones), gardening, sewing and bottling hundreds of jars of peaches, pears, cherries and tomatoes. She still found time for fun, taking her kids on bike rides, having dinner parties with friends, and going on lots of trips with Dave. She was creative — we remember beautiful doll clothes sewn with love for Christmas, amazing compost for an organic garden, and beautiful decorations for Christmas. She loved playing board games, card games and Sudoku. She made sure her children took swimming lessons, dance lessons, piano lessons and was proud when they worked hard and did well in school. We, (her children) benefitted from the fact that she was non-judgmental. She wasn’t too distressed with our misbehaviors and let us learn from our own mistakes. Marilyn was a hard worker. No matter how long, how dark, or how cold she didn’t give up on a goal. She was a great cook. She made the best pie crust in the world and we all loved her Sunday pot roast with mashed potatoes and gravy. As her kids grew, she took on other adventures. Marilyn and Dave bought the little grocery store in
Ogden
Spring City and she threw her energy and passion into making it the bestrun store around. She helped Grandpa Jensen take care of the sheep and she had a special place in his heart. She helped Dave with the turkey operation and still kept up with all of the kids and the housework. She had many good times with her parents and her siblings. They got together often to drive up the canyon for a picnic, to spend the day “spring cleaning” each other’s homes, or to play a game of tennis. She and her siblings took many trips on family boats through the Northwest and she passed on her love of traveling with family to all of her children. Marilyn and many of her family members enjoyed working in the grocery business at her brother, Terrel’s, store. She was an amazing daughter, spending months at a time with her own mother as she aged. She was a ray of sunshine to the end. We loved to see her do a little dance and hear her sweet song as she greeted the day, “Oh, it’s good to get up in the morning when the sun begins to shine.” She was devoted to her family, to her children and especially to her husband, David. Together they loved and nurtured 6 children, 16 grandchildren, 27 great grandchildren and 2 greatgreat grandchildren. In the year before her death we often found Marilyn and David seated on the couch holding hands. They were married for 68 years. David left us on February 24, 2020, and Marilyn went to join him on October 16, 2020. You’ve made it to the bushes, Mom. You’re free. Marilyn is survived by her siblings, Norma Larsen (Ephraim, UT), Marlane Harless (Mt. Pleasant, UT), SueAnn Croshaw (Roger, Gilbert, AZ) and Terrel Seely (Glenda, Mt. Pleasant, UT); and her children, Kathryn Blackham, Allan Sorensen (Kathy), Lori Miller (Brian), Brenda Scott (Bruce), Teresa Yates (Jay), and Angie Sorensen (Phillip) and many grandchildren and great grandchildren. A celebration of Marilyn’s life will be held next summer when we can gather with family and friends in Spring City. In the meantime, you are invited to share photos, tributes and memories under the “Tributes” tab at this web address: www. serenityfhs.com

Tips for staying positive and healthy during the pandemic BY MELANIE JEWKES,
USU Extension
For many people, the pandemic has caused disarray and uncertainty, and it is easy to become anxious and skeptical. However, there are many things we still have control over, and one of those is our attitude. A positive attitude can go a long way in times of stress. Author Charles Swindoll said, “Life is 10% what happens to me and 90% how I react to it.” Consider these tips to stay positive and healthy. 1. Stay connected. Physically distancing does not mean we have to be distanced emotionally or socially. Find creative ways to stay connected to family, friends and coworkers, especially when you feel alone or sense that others might be in need. Ideas to be social while distancing or staying home include: Meet up via video conferencing on computers or smartphones. Besides talking and catching up, there are also many fun, entertaining virtual games and activities available. Pick up the phone and call loved ones when you think of them. Write letters or send cards via email or through the mail. With all the technology available, there is something exciting about receiving a physical letter in the mail. Send text messages with funny memes or videos with a note that you are thinking of them. Compile a COVID-19 care package and send it to a loved one. Make front-porch visits, decorate front doors or draw with sidewalk chalk on a loved one’s driveway or sidewalk. Pick your quaran”team” — people who are also limiting social interaction who you can spend time with.

Stay home if you feel sick. Even if you don’t have COVID-19, being sick can likely mean you have a suppressed immune system, which could make you more susceptible to COVID-19 if you come in contact with it. Maintain a 6-foot space between you and others
when outside of your home. Limit time in stores and other enclosed locations. Use online shopping and curbside pickup when possible. 4. Build and maintain a healthy immune system. Get adequate sleep.

2. Take care of yourself. Fill your cup to foster positivity and resilience. Try positive self-talk, and write down your strengths. Start a gratitude journal. Make a list of your hopes and goals for the future. Reminisce on some of your favorite memories and pastimes. Plan a fun activity or vacation for the future. Other self-care tips include: Allow yourself to feel discouraged or to have a melt down every once in awhile. It’s okay. Take a break from work and engage in relaxing activities you enjoy. Spend time learning a new hobby or creating something. Take a break with no expectations of yourself. Create a short list of things you can do daily to break up the monotony of athome routines or feelings of loneliness. Walk the dog for 30 minutes, read a book, cook a new meal for dinner or listen to a favorite podcast or song. 3. With skyrocketing numbers, remember COVID-19 safety. Wear a mask anytime you are around people you don’t live with. It’s one of the simplest ways to reduce the spread of COVID-19. Wash hands frequently, especially before eating, when returning home, after using the restroom, before leaving your house and after sneezing, coughing or touching your mouth.

Seven tips to live, recreate safely in bear country SALT LAKE CITY — Black bears live and roam throughout much of Utah. While they are amazing animals, most of us probably wouldn’t feel comfortable coming face to face with one in our campsite or backyard. If you follow a few simple steps, you can decrease the chances of that happening and can help keep you and the bears safe. Black bears are the only bear species currently in Utah, and they have an amazing sense of smell. They also have no problem eating the same type of food that people eat. As a result, many of the conflicts between people and bears happen because the bears start scavenging for the food that humans are eating and cooking in the bear’s natural habitat. “Even though they’re incredibly strong and surprisingly fast, black bears will typically do everything they can to avoid people,” Darren DeBloois, Utah Division of Wildlife Resources game mammals coordinator, said. “When a bear finds food, though, that all changes. Once it finds food, a bear will often become aggressive toward anything it perceives as threatening the area where it found the food. That includes people. We are anticipating another summer with a lot of bear activity, so please take the necessary steps to protect yourself from a bear encounter.” Here are a few simple tips to keep both you and the bears safe while you are out recreating in their territory this summer:
Bear-proof your food and supplies Store your food, snacks and scented items (such as deodorant and toothpaste) in an area where a bear can’t get to
the night before. Also, make sure to clean your trash container regularly to eliminate some of the odors that attract bears.
Remove items that will attract a bear to your house Utah is bear country, and especially so if you live in the foothills or other mountainous parts of the state. It is important to properly secure or clean yard items that may attract a bear. Some of these include: Birdfeeders (both seed and hummingbird), Fruit trees, Compost piles, Beehives, Pet food and water bowls, Unsupervised outdoor pets (especially at night), Barbecue grills,

Take care when camping in Utah Mountains with these tips for keeping bears away. them. Do not leave them out on tables or keep them in your tent. Storing them in a locked trailer or locking them in the trunk of your car are both good options. Storing food and scented items in these areas will reduce the chance that a bear smells them. And, if a bear does make its way to the area where you’re staying, if it isn’t rewarded with food, it will likely move on.
Keep your cooking area clean After you’ve finished eating, thoroughly clean utensils and anything else that was used to prepare or eat the food. Don’t dump oil or grease from pots or pans onto the ground. In-
stead, put the oil or grease in a container, and take it home with you. By keeping your campsite or cabin area clean, you reduce the chance that a bear will smell food and trash, and be lured to your camp.
Keep your campsite clean Don’t leave food scraps and other trash scattered around your campsite or cabin area. Instead, put it in trash bags, and take it home with you. Make sure to wipe down picnic tables and keep the area free of food and other debris. Always keep your campsite or cabin area clean because a dirty campsite can attract bears long after you’ve left.

Stand your ground: Never back up, lie down or play dead. Stay calm and give the bear a chance to leave. Prepare to use your bear spray or another deterrent. Don’t run away or climb a tree. Black bears are excellent climbers and can run up to 35 mph — you cannot outclimb or outrun them. Know bear behavior. If a bear stands up, grunts, moans or makes other sounds, it’s not being aggressive. These are the ways a bear gets a better look or smell and expresses its interest. If a black bear attacks, always fight back. And never give up! People have successfully defended themselves with almost anything: rocks, sticks, backpacks, water bottles and even their hands and feet. For more tips on staying safe around black bears, visit the DWR website and the Wild Aware Utah website. A video about bear safety is also available on the DWR YouTube channel.
good to eat. The line at the snack bar starts long before the movies. It’s because the hamburgers and cheeseburgers all have a special sauce that makes them delicious and in high demand. Sacks of burgers and hot popcorn are popular favorites. “Most people come in and say they’ve heard about our hamburgers,” says snack bar employee Michelle Akauola. “The first thing they always ask for is, ‘Do you serve fries?’ That’s how we know they are out of towners. We always say we serve popcorn and nachos. But they’re always excited to do something different and have fun and be able to come out and enjoy the environment out here.” The program gives viewers one more gem in this installment. It’s called Freedom Road—a small stretch of black-top that leads to a town named Freedom. Discovery Road is an award-winning ongoing documentary series broadcast each Saturday on the Utah Eduction Network (channel 9) at 6 p.m. MST and on several local cable television stations in Utah and surrounding states. All episodes can also be found on the website mormonpioneerheritage.org. The MPNHA is a federally designated area of central and southern Utah running along the beautiful and historic U.S. 89.

Virtual Jubilee of Trees to advance cancer care The 2020 Jubilee of Trees will capture the spirit of the season healthfully this year, through the glittering virtual safety of a YouTube livestream. “We are excited to invite everyone to join the Virtual Jubilee Gala,” said Mitch Cloward, Administrator of Intermountain Dixie Regional Medical Center. “In years past we were limited by facility size. Changing to a virtual format this year will not only help stop the spread of COVID-19, it will allow anyone who desires to enjoy the holiday festivities – and help us improve local healthcare.” Funds raised at the Jubilee will advance local cancer care, including Intermountain Precision Genomics. “This Jubilee of Trees will be a first time we go virtual,” said Lisa Brown, Foundation event specialist for the Jubilee of Trees. “In order to support our community living their healthiest lives possible, we created a new world filled with online shopping fun, virtual entertainment, bidding excitement and Santa Claus video calls for your children or grandchildren.” To catch all the sparkling moments, go to www.dixieregional.org/JubileeOfTrees and register. “The future of cancer care really is bright,” said Dr. Derrick Haslem, MD, Associate Medical Director of Oncology at Intermountain Healthcare. “It is full of new targeted drugs, immunotherapy, and with each advancement we are closer to making cancer a chronic
disease that can be well-managed.” Intermountain Precision Genomics offers a personalized approach to treating not only cancer, but other diseases as well. Precision genomics looks at the DNA of an individual’s cancer cells, and matches it to targeted cancer-fighting medication. It has been proven to increase the lifespan of late-stage cancer patients at a lower cost than traditional methods. “We continue to see success in using precision medicine to help our patients and we are unwavering in our commitment to finding effective treatments for patients everywhere,” said Dr. Lincoln Nadauld, MD, PhD and the Executive Director of Intermountain Precision Genomics. “Treatment for cancer is evolving so quickly. The pace of new drugs being developed, and the pace of new treatments is unparalleled in the previous 50 years of cancer care.” Intermountain Precision Genomics is creating an innovative movement discovering new cancer therapies with fewer side effects and less cost than traditional cancer treatments. Precision Genomics is leading the way and transforming cancer care. To support cancer research, the Jubilee of Trees is supporting the HerediGene: Population Study. Teams from the two organizations will analyze the complete DNA of 500,000 participants from Intermountain’s patient population to help
medical professionals better understand the human genome and enhance their ability to prevent diseases such as breast cancer, colon cancer, and heart disease. The project will be the largest and most comprehensive DNA mapping effort to date in the U.S. from a single population. To find out more or participate, call 1-833-698-1727 or visit www.intermountainhealthcare.org/ heredigene. At the Intermountain Cancer Center of St. George physicians and patients inspire each other. “Cancer patients see the scientists and researchers working in our labs when they come for care,” Nadauld said, “and our scientists see and are inspired by the cancer patients they are working to help.” Creating inspiration and hope for a bright future for cancer patients is what the 2020 Jubilee of Trees is all about. Philanthropy and the Jubilee of Trees have significantly supported cancer care in southern Utah in the past. Generous donations helped fund Dixie Medical Center’s first cancer center in the 1970s, when down-winder cancer was first detected in the region. “Through the years,” said Cloward, “philanthropy has enabled us to offer leading edge cancer treatments and care. Intermountain Precision Genomics is transforming cancer care locally and globally. We are so grateful to a generous community that continues to support advancing healthcare.”
