Our mother, our mentor, Barbara Ann Nyman Applegate, age 76, passed away peacefully in her sleep at her home in the early morning of March 24, 2007. She was born in Heber City on Dec. 11, 1929 to Alfred (Fred) Hermanson Nyman and Ruth Russell Kelly. She was raised in Park City. She was a Park City "Bohunk" and proud of it. She married her eternal sweetheart William JoeLee Applegate on May 11, 1948. He passed away on Aug. 29, 1990. They were sealed for eternity in the Provo Utah Temple on Nov. 7, 1991. Barbara and William raised six children: William JoeLee Applegate Jr., of Heber City; Sharolette "Charlie" Ann (Evan) Zenger, of Tooele; Sharon Ruth (Doug) Warnick, of Pleasant Grove; Jean (Brent) North, of Heber City; Debra Kaye Burrows and Daryl Whitley, of Woodland, Calif.; (B.J.) Brenda Jayne (Chip) Wright, of Midway; one surviving sister, Darlene Broadhead, of Oasis, Nev.; and her precious dog, Cozie. She had a very special sis- ter-in-law, Arlene Nyman, of Heber City, who went for rides every other day, and another sister-in-law, Sue Nyman that she traveled with a lot. She is preceded in death by her husband, her mother when she was 16 years old, her father,, her brothers: Fred H. Nyman, William A. Nyman, Raymond R. Nyman (Pat). She had 21 grandchildren and 48 greatgrandchildren. She worked at the Wasatch County Hospital in medical records, retiring in 1990. Her testimony of the gospel was very strong and she truly understood the plan of salvation. She loved being a visiting teacher and never missed a visit. She lived for her children, grandchildren and greatgrandchildren. Gram, G.G. always had the "Goose" full of cookies and everyone thought they were there just for them. Her zest for life was full, but her motto was always, "Just get it done!" She didn't procrastinate and always finished what she started and taught that value to everyone around her. Even though her hands were very Barbara Applegate tiny, she could sure move a mountain. She left this earth the way she wanted, at home and quick. We know that her eternal life will be fabulous! Funeral services will be held on Wednesday, March 28,2007,1 p.m. at the Heber 3rd Ward Chapel, 400 South 300 East, Heber City. A viewing will be held from 11:3012:30 prior to the service at the church. c fights tar sands' development In Utah, the only state in the U.S. where the tar sands development resource exists, the extraction would either involve Under direction from the U.S. strip mining large swaths of land Interior Department, the Utah or an in situ variation of extracBureau of Land Management tion such as underground fires.

BLM never completed these analyses and never issued records of decision approving (or denying) these activities. According to Bloch, the BLM never suspended -- although it was required to do so - the leases underlying the tar sands applications. The lessees either never noticed this omission or simply failed to do anything about it (i.e., there is no record of any of the lessees applying for a lease suspension). As oil prices fell in the mid1980s, the interest level of the lessees/applicants dropped off (as did BLM's) and BLM put these projects on the shelf for more than 20 years without finally adjudicating the underlying leases. In the interim, the national significance of these lands was recognized and they were formally protected from future development. Even though BLM recently determined that many leases had in fact expired, the agency is now threatening to reinstate the leases at issue here in the Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument, Glen Canyon NRA, and other sensitive Utah wildlands. "Because of its industryfriendly history, it is not surprising that BLM has decided to give the benefit of the doubt to oil and gas development rather than to environmental protection," said The Wilderness Society's Suzanne Jones. "But when there is already a huge surplus of oil and gas permits that have yet to be developed in the state, do Utahns really want to open the Grand Staircase and other special lands to the same environmental disaster that is creating global environmental concern in Alberta?" Thank You Park City! "Of course, the Jennys don't really wail, at least not in a literal sense. Their forte is more the sort of earthy harmonies that wouldn't be out of place on a Trio album or a campfire hootenanny attended entirely by angels." - The Winnipeg Sun Sunday 2007 The Christian Center, with its community partners, has just completed its 5th successful season serving our International Seasonal Workers.
