No matter at what age. My friend LaRee Pehrson s first flash of consciousness came while sitting alone on a box in her mother's yard, and being in the midst of a great flash of white light, it was like an electrical explosion and from that moment on, LaRee was acutely aware of her surroundings and her own thought process as well. Mine wasn't so illuminating. Mine came on a day when I was dumped in grass that towered over my head, and in terror cried out. I can still recall from some deep cavern of g willy-nill- I y memory, the screams that came from day. j i Carter And Mary Hess Mark 60th Anniversary Thursday, June I jungle. That wildly waving stuff loomed far over my head and each blade was topped with shining points. Knifed edged and frightening. The hot sun shone down brighter and more relentless than any fire, right into my eyes, blinding me with its glare as threw back my head in despair and howled. It was as if a thousand lights suddenly flashed in my face. 30, 1983 cer-mon- y i i ; I r 1 Around my body the grass was dark, thick and, to add to my terror, was alive with bugs that chirped, crawled, chattered and leaped through the air like monkeys. They whizzed passed me, lit upon me and crawled like fiends from some horror story. WEST VALLEY VIEW Their marriage was later solemnized in the Salt Lake LDS Temple on Dec. 19, 1944. Beginning their new life together, Carter and Mary moved back to the farm in Fielding for a couple of years. However by 1926 they were back in Magna living in a little house on 3000 South between 8900 and 8950 West. . As their finances increased they moved to three other homes in Magna before finally settling down in a home on 6000 West in Hunter With retirement however, they moved back to Magna to live in the Alldredge Subdivision on the east side of 8400 West. For the biggest part of his w orking life Carter was employed at as a diesel mechanic in the Magna machine shop. He retired in May 1968 after 42 years of service. Almost every year the couple vacationed with their children in Montana where. Carter fished and Mary did hand sewing and crochet. In fact they became so much a part of the Big Sky Country that they were always given the same cabin at the fishing camp where they stayed. But as it does with all of us, time continued to march on. Their children grew up and married, and then nine years ago Mary suffered a was lost. Dropped into an environment did not know or like and was afraid to move. Everything could see, smell, touch or feel was strange and frightening. It stank as the summer heat oozed up from the damp earth while pollen from nearby blossoms filled the air with shiny glitter. Its sweet suffocation filled my mouth and nose, and between screams I sneezed and sneezed and sneezed. High overhead a 'million' birds swooned through the air, chattering and darting in the sky and, if hao known about Hell, I'd have sworn that was where had suddenly baen dropped. I I I later learned that we had just moved into a new home and, perhaps, for no more than half a minute I had been left out of sight of any human being. But, in that entirely new environment, alone in that tail grass, was so shocked that it remains imprinted upon me to this day. I Often my childhood sleep was broken by a repeat of that moment, and it is sad that no child is wise or conversant enough to tell adults what or why she is frightened. Ken-neco- NOW!

Finally Carters own health broke under the strain, and reluctantly he agreed to having his life long companion placed in an extended care facility. For Carter the change was a hard one, because the longest they had ever been separated was for one month during the Great Depression when he got time off to help his father on the farm. However, the togetherness they have shared for the past 65 years has continued in spite of the geographical distance that separated them. For he never misses a day going to the nursing home. As for Mary, although it is difficult to communicate, her eyes light up and she welcomes him with open arms each time he comes down the hall. For the love they share is still just as bright . . . still just as as it was when they beautiful plighted their troth 60 years ago. Last week they celebrated their 60th wedding anniversary at the Golden Manor, complete with friends, relatives, and hospital personnel. There was a big cake to mark the occasion, and their two sons, Don Hess of Magna and Keith Hess of Salt lake, as well as their six grandchildren and six greatgrandchildren to add one more link their golden chain of memories. i but OFF!
