pmjguiig:: cjgvjs By Earl Roe 676-2376 wearlroeyahoo.com Another report on the two good storms we had recently. According to one report, they added eight inches of water on the lake. If we could be blessed with frequent storms of this magnitude for the next six months, the lake would start to look like we want it to look. (One weatherman said he thought the drought was broken. We all hope he is right.) I received a call from Art Cooper telling me that his 17th great-grandchild, Cooper Lance Stacy, came into his life on Nov. 4 at 8 lbs. 9 ounces and 20 inches inch-es from head to toe. He is the new son of Lance and Carolyn (Cooper) Stacy , Corinth, Tex.. I also received another letter from Ferral Roundy with some more information on Joe Predencio. (My file on Joe keeps getting larger.) Ferral also included a personal comment concerning our younger days. He said he remembered me as a 17-year-old boy helping his dad build Alma Liston's house in Escalante and was always whistling. He learned to whistle by watching how I formed my lips. I have always been a whilstler, often without knowing I was whistling. (I'm full of music, can't sing, so this is the only way I can get it out.) Roma and Hal Wilcock drove over from Cedar City to pick up Roma's mother. Norma Talbot, and take her to Pleasant Grove to see the play, "Titanic" which was being presented by the Pleasant Grove High School Drama Department. Norma's grandson, Jim, was the Music Director for the play and also played the part of the ships Captain. Jim's son, Micah, also had a part in the play. Norma said the production was excellent excel-lent and she enjoyed it very much. (I wonder if having a grandson and great-grandson performing had anything to do with this?) Jim must have done an excellent job with the musical musi-cal score because the city has asked him to present- their "Messiah" program during the holidays. While Norma was in Cedar City visiting Roma and Hal son, Art, and his sons, Brent, Jay, and Mitch and Jay's wife, Nell, for the first weekend of the deer hunt. They had an enjoyable, but short, hunt but managed to get a deer. Mitch was able to be with them as he is on a break from the Astros before having to return to his Spring training as a pitcher. Stan and Anna Pollock had a fun filled weekend (and a full house) with family and friends as they celebrated Anna's (??th) birthday on Nov. 12. Helping her celebrate were: John and Doris Farrell (Las Vegas); son, Dandy and friend, Cindy; Lacy Edwards and sons, Brock & Gage; Kourtney and Russell Bradshaw and Conner, all from Beaver. Local guests were Cliff and Betty McFarland, Karla Owens, Marion and Louise Burgess, Clint and Jolene Pollock, Alisha (Chesney) Tebbs, Clint S. and Alana Mae Pollock, and Troy, Cauleen & Kazen Pollock. She received cards and phone calls from other friends and family: aunt Nellie Colling, Orem , Patti Coon Monroe, Maurine and Bob Jones (sister) from Hurricane, . and Juanita Talbot who is out of town visiting family, but still remembered Anna's birthday. Anna was so excited and thrilled with it all that all she could say was, "What would we do with-.out with-.out family and friends?" (Knowing Anna, I would say it would be unusual if this is all she had to say.) Pat Oetting reports that the 'Candy Booth' at the Craft Fair was an outstanding fund raising event for our 'Sub for Santa Program'. She extends a special thanks to the awesome (her word) candy makers of Panguitch for their talents, time, and ingredients, and also to Mandy Soper & JoAnn Savage who encouraged everyone's participation par-ticipation and provided free space for the booth. Pat also wants to call everyone's attention atten-tion to the new fence around our Cemetary. Using the phrase of (See PANGUITCH on page 3A) Panguitch From Page 2A the day, "It's Awesome", but it really does add to our cemetary. It's being there is also a little humerous. We have it because of that pesky little rodent, the prairie dog. It seems that the prairie dog huggers could not remove them by trapping so they provided the means for securing a grant (around $70,000 I have heard) to have a dog-proof fence constructed completely around the cemetary. A metal net portion por-tion of the fence extends far enough below ground that the rodents will not burrow beneath it (we hope). The volunteer hours of Rob Veater,Dave Owens, Kory Owens, Arlin Sawyer, and our county employees employ-ees helped a great deal in making mak-ing this fence possible.
