I voted for your painting Rebecca. It's excellent! I hope you win, but regardless you need to keep sharing that talent. I envy people with that ability to create beautiful art.

I'm not sure of too many of those railroad tie outbuildings that are still standing, but another interesting garage building method involved using empty ammunition boxes left over after WWII. There were literally millions available from war surplus stores and they could be had cheap, so people stacked them up to make the walls of their detached garages. The outside usually got covered with some kind of siding and were painted. There are still a few samples around Springville.

OK everybody, I am back into the Class website.  It has been awhile since I have posted anything.  I have been reading many of your posts.  You guys are the greatest.  I have been really busy whith grandkids, trips, gardening, grandkids, etc....In June I was at the Olympic Games venue location just northeast of Deer Creek Reservoir.  I didn't have a chance to make contact with any of you while I was there.  There will be more trips in the future.  You guys all look great, and it is good to see what is going on in your lives.

         On the seventh of June Gaylon Dallin updated his information here on the class sight. I did not know that he was suffering from any illness as he was very quiet about what he was doing.   I have not seen him in a while but every year Gaylon would camp durring the bow hunt up on the Skyline Drive and I would always go up and see him.  We always had some good conversations.  It just came to be something that happened and was expected.   It started about 10 years ago by accident and just continued on.  He was always a gracious host when I came up and visited.   I never associated much with Gaylon in high school and after but during my time with UPS I got to know him through diliveries and realized how tallented he was when it came to bow and arrows.   Even though he was hunting when I would go up on the skyline each year, he would take time out of his day to take me around and show me what was going on and where he had seen the animals and actually got me started in my first trail cameras.    When we take time to get to know some of our classmates we learn more than expected.   I will miss Gaylon both on the mountain and around town.  He was a man that loved his kids and was proud of what they accomplished and just reciently took me around to show me what one of his sons had done with his place and I learned every detail.  He was so proud.    As Dennis Robertson always says, enjoy your friendships and friends to the fullest""

         Though I really only was involved with Gaylon once a year or here and there when we met someplace, I am going to miss that small association that I have had over these last few years.  I want you all to know how much I enjoy our get togethers and apprieciate friendships I have with the class.    I wish you all a great Pioneer holiday and hope you all have a geat weekend.

Carol Golding (Pitcher)

Gaylon is my sister-in-laws brother.   He did not know very long that he had cancer.  And family members only knew about 6 weeks before his death.    He died peacefully with his family around him.

Daryl Tucker

So sorry to hear about Gaylon. My condolences to you, Carol, and the rest of the family. I have put the brief death notice on the "In Memory"section of this site and will update it when the full obituary is available.

I'll just repeat what several have already said about letting our friends know how much we love them and care about them before we no longer have the opportunity in this life. Love you all!

(The complete obituary has been added to the In Memory page. 7-25-15)

UTawna Johnson (Witney)

Thank you, Carol, for the information about Gaylon.  He and I had a conversation or two while I was working at Sunroc and he was still with the City.  We joked about retirement.  I got to know him better from these short conversations that I had all through school.  Like has been said, he was a quiet person and just carried on with his life in his own way.  Some of us are that way. I will miss seeing him around here and there and his shy but genuine smile.

 OK Daryl, Happy birthday late and my son's house in Springville has a garage made out of those old boxes! If you need pictures of it we can always break in!!!!   the 21st will work for me! We can get out my expedition and load up at least 8 of us to go to Kate's!!!!   I am sorry to hear about Gaylon, he was such a good kid! I always remember looking at his pretty hair!!!   I don't know if anyone knows that Pat Clegg died a few month ago. I don't know any details of her death. I just know that her sister let me know that she died in December or January!   We better keep in better touch with everyone!   Another thing going on is that Paul Wheeler's Mom is very ill and so is Tony Child's Mom! They need your prayers! Love you all!!!!  Such sad news, I think we all need a party!!! Love you all!!!!

Today is Dennis Sorensen's Birthday,the newest member of the 64 club! It's nice to be able to acknowledge a happy occasion amidst other less happy news.

Let's make the party at Kate's a focal point for next month. It will be a great way to tell each other how much they have meant and continue to mean to us.

Dennis

It was good to see Gaylon at the Bus Painting, I know there's a photo of that out there somewhere. His obituary was great, thanks for sharing that Ken. Sorry for our loss.

Looking forward to the party Kate. Start making assignments.

I heard from our classmate, Shauna Davis Johnson that her husband, David, passed away yesterday from organ failure due to multiple medical condtions.  David was also a Red Devil, class of '66.  And David's brother Allen Johnson is one of our own class of '69.  David's funeral will be held at the Church in Holden on Sat. August 1st at 11 am.  Love and condolences to Shauna and their children and all the Johnson family.  Obituary can be found at rasmussenmortuary.com

Love to Shauna and her family as they go thru this trial.  David was a fun person to know -- glad that I had that opportunity.

Daryl Tucker

I'm very sorry to hear about Shauna's husband. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family, Shauna. 

On a happier note I'd like to wish Stephen Harder a happy 64th birthday today! Welcome to the club!

Stephen Harder

Thanks Daryl, And Happy birthday to you. I didn't know that turning 64 would be so fun, I guess some of you folks have been keeping this secret for months, It will be an honor to be in the 64 club, Thanks again!

So sorry Shauna.....

Marvin Dansie

So sorry to hear of the loss of loved ones, but we are of that age where it is an all too frequent occurance.

Soon members of the "Class of 69" will start turning 65 and it is important to take care of some govenment business at that age. You need to be aware that if you don't sign up for Medicare Part B within the initial enrollment period (3 months before you turn 65 to 3 months after the month you turn 65) you have to pay a premium penalty of 10% for each year you delay, and the penalty doesn't go away. So, it is important to educate yourself about the Medicare options now and take the appropriate action to avoid some of those nasty surprises.

UTawna Johnson (Witney)

Marvin thanks for the reminder (I think). I ask my husband every month when I need to sign up, and he very patiently reminds me "3 months before your birthday".  Who would have ever thought that we'd be at this point in our lives.  It certainly wasn't on my mind back in 1969,  I was just looking forward to turning 21.  There wasn't any particular reason, I just thought it would be awesome to be 21.  Well, been there and done that!
