This is a woman who touched lives "To have known her was to love her," said Bob wherever die went and uplifted many people. For 20 years she taught many students at Dixie College through her Program Bureau. This bureau taught 2,000 Dixiettes over the many years Roene was there. President Lossee of Dixie College was disappointed that the students didnt know the old songs of St. George and Dixie. He saw her talent and brought her "home to Dixie." He felt she could make a difference, and she did. She was known as "Mrs. D" and "The Spirit of Dixie" to those who knew her. When die and Carl moved to her grandmothers adobe family house in Washington, die made it into a home. But the home burned down and had no insurance. Many people had a chance to pay her back for her love and concern by donating materials, labor and money towards the project of building a modest home, which now stands where her heritage home once stood. Roene had a tenderness of feeling, a love for music and a delight to entertain and influence all those she came in contact with. Evidence of her love for music was the fact that her own "Program Bureau" sang at her funeral and many groups that she organized rendered her favorite songs no less than 13 songs. She was held in such high esteem that her funeral was held in the St. George tabernacle, filled to capacity. protect our water and environment Stansfield graduated from Brigham Young University with a BA degree in Communications.

I am committed to involving the residents of the county in the decision-makin- g process."

Second, he believes the county needs to take the lead in Economic Development. "Our countys greatest export has been our children. We need to provide jobs that will allow our children to stay here in the valley if they choose, not just any jobs but jobs that pay enough to raise a family." Third, Unity. The last few years have been divisive for the county, says Stansfield. He is convinced it is time to work together to solve common problems. "It is easy to find issues which divide us; it is more difficult to bring people together to find solutions," according to Stansfield. He believes that he can provide that leadership.
