They stick together even though they may be competing for the approval of the public, or for their advertising dollars. When one of their members suffers a tragedy, all will mourn. Last week, the Managing Editor of the Mt. Pleasant Pyramid, Koleen Peterson, was forced to suffer yet another great blow to her life, when her husband, Rodney Jay Peterson, 48, will killed in a mining accident at Valley Camp Mine. Just 18 months ago, the Petersons had lost two of theirsons, Robert Jay, and Blake Alan, in afarming accident. During her years at the Pyramid, Koleen has put her heart and soul into her work. She loves and supports her community; its schools and its people. Some have said that she delivers her journalism ' from the hip. Not necessarily because it's what the people want to hear - but because its what the people MUST hear. After the loss of her two sons, Koleen said she took her strength from her husband, and she was quick to comfort others who were going through a similar situation. But this time she says the road ahead looks rough, and she wonders if she will have the strength to come through this terrible trial. She notes that everything on their Milburn sheep ranch has a pleasant memory associated with. Memories of times spent planning, working, or just being together. The way can be no other way than hard for Koleen, and this time she must find her strength and faith on her own. In her own words, she says, The road ahead will be so lonely, and no one knows how long, or what lies ahead. But my memories of you will be guiding my way, and will be my strength, until we walk together through the eternities. The Salina Sun, Gunnison Valley News, and Staff, extend our love and prayers to Koleen and her family, that they may find the way to deal with, accept, and eventually overcome this terrible event which has come into their lives, and find peace. possible.
