Happy Birthday Ray Davis! 

I've been told that when Ray was in 1st grade, the teacher was trying to build some self-esteem among the students one day and said, "If anyone in this class thinks they're stupid stand up." Of course, she hadn't expected anyone to stand up, but Ray stood up and the teacher asked, "Ray do you really think you're stupid?" And Ray said, "No, but I felt sorry for you standing up there all alone."

And that's how I feel about Ray. He's always stood up for the underdogs and been a great friend. Have a great day brother!

65? I think you have the numbers backwards, you can't be over 56. Happy Birthday anyway, Prom Queen.

Thanks for paving the way and testing the Medicare thing.

Goofy is alive.

Happy Birthday, Shauna!!!

I chose to get an agent to get me signed up with Medicare and a supplemental insurance.  Let him have the headaches that the government can create.

Daryl Tucker

Linwood (Woody) Carter helped Alauna when she applied for disability coverage. He's an excellent agent who handles Medicare supplemental plans and he can present you with a variety of options since he's independent and works with several different companies. He's a good Red Devil too. Message me if you want his number. Mine is 801-427-9318.

Linda Schardine

I'm going to see if he does Idaho too....Yeah, he's great!!   He's my uncle.....

I guess I should explain this picture! When i got home from dinner on my birthday I had a Limo sitting in my driveway! We figured that a was getting punked or something like that. Next my doorbell rings and it is my neighbor. He asked if I mined if he parked the limo in my drivewas for the night. Of course i said yes,thinking that i might look important for the night! Then he said he was going to pick up his daughter from the Jr. High dance. So I asked him if we could ride along and pick up my grandson too. He said sure but I have to milk my cow first! I'm not making this up! I thought I would look up town' so I put animal PJ's on with the matching robe and of course matching shoes! He got back from milking the cow and away we went! It was really a nice limo! My grandson didn't believe us when we said we were picking him up in a Limo so when we got their he just stared at the car. Me in my pretty attire jumped out of the car and yelled at him to get in. He wasn't even embaressed, cause he knows I'm a little nuts!  Thanks for all the birthday wishes it was great. I just wish that I had my crown and beautiful dress on, then i would have looked like royalty!!Thanks Daryl I liked being queen for a day!

 Happy Birthday Paul! Orfa Dee called me to tell me Happy Birthday! She always says I'm her daughter because Mom and her with in the hospital together. Really they used to keep them 2 weeks!! They call Paul's Mom Miss Mapleton because whe remembers everything about it. So if you want to know any history give her a call.  I feel so sorry for Joan losing Eric! I'm not sorry for him because we all know where he is. His body was starting to fail him and he was starting to have a hard time getting around. Joan was such a trooper taking care of him. Rest in Peace Eric!!  Remember i love all you guys! Please stay healthy and happy!!!

Here is the latest obituary info for Eric...

Eric Glenn Orton, 65, passed away February 25, 2016 at his home due to complications from Progressive Supranuclear Palsy.

Eric married his high school sweetheart, Joan Crandall in the Salt Lake Temple on August 14, 1970. They made their home in Mapleton where they raised their five children.

Eric was an active member of the LDS Church where he served in many capacities. He was self employed the majority of his life doing excavation. Thru his work he made many acquaintances and lifelong friends. He was very creative and had a go big or go home attitude in everything he did. From school projects to tree houses, he put his whole heart into it.

He really enjoyed camping, fishing and hunting but one of his greatest joys was his 15 grandchildren.

He is survived by his wife, Joan of 45 years; his children: Jerry (Marci) Orton, Janeal (Richard) Durfey, Angela (Branden) Jamison, Jennifer (Brad) Poulsen, and Kellie (Dustin) Lee.

I am saddened to hear about Eric Ortons Passing . He was one of the funnest Classmates that I knew in school.You never  knew what he would do next . So you had keep on your toes all the time.When I read that he died from PSP I realiy felt bad. My older sister Sheron died with PSP she only lived about a mile  or two from Eric and Joan in Mapleton . Makes you wonder if it was something in the water supply .My thoughts and Prayers go to Joan and their family at this sad time.

David Lynn

That was an incredible service Joan, you have a great family and Eric will be missed. He was the kind of person we'd all want to be remembered like. Prayers to you.

David Lynn
