Show B3 The Emery County Review, Tuesday, August 12, 2008 TRIBUTE Ann Ross “Grannie Annie” Anna Faye Vuksinick “Momma” PRICE - Anna “Faye” Vuksinick, 84, passed away August 6, 2008, on the same day she was born in 1924. She passed away at the home of her daughter Lynette. She was born in Price, Utah to Charles A. and Kisty M. Jensen Fausett. She married Martin L. Vuksinick. Later divorced. Mom touched many lives as a nurse, a profession she loved being a part of. One of her proudest accomplishments was when she completed school for her LPN license. She spent many committed years caring for others and had great compassion for her “little people” in the nursing home. She told us many stories about the people she cared for and I think we were the only kids who weren’t afraid to go to a nursing home. During those years, she cared for her Mother, sisters; Ila and Pearl. When she retired from nursing, she returned two weeks later to work part-time. She said retirement was “boring”. Once she retired, she volunteered as a Pink Lady at Carbon Hospital until 2004 when her health began to decline. Lynette and I feel the most important lesson she taught us was to be a family that stuck together through good and bad times and to rely on each other for love and support. We do that today in her honor. Later in life, Mom and her three sisters moved back into the family home. She was always the one to say, “Come on, sit down, lets chat”. To her grandkids, she was always going to give them a “talking to” or “give them a lickin”. She would say, “Do you know what that is?”. Lynette and Vanessa want to thank Angie Fausett and Jenn from CNS for their kindness and compassion during Mom’s last days. Survived by her daughters; Lynette Wells and Vanessa (Ben) Benedict, grandchildren Jason & Kyle Hamann, Joshua & Jessica Wells. Jessie (James), Sasha, Brandon Benedict, Jennifer & Jeremy Fairbanks, Christopher & Octobre Benedict, Heidi & Erik Petersen, and eight great- grandchildren, Sister; Wayne Smith. She is preceded in death by her parents, daughter Melanie, grandson Justin, son-in-law Kevin Wells, sisters; Jenny, Eloise, Pearl, Ila, Ruth, and brothers; George, Ray, and Jess. If you wish, donations can be made to the American Cancer Society in Faye’s name. Funeral services were Aug. 9, 2008 at Fausett Mortuary (680 East 100 South, Price, Utah).

FSA offers specialtytargeted farm loans Farm Loan Manager Lori Brady for USDA’s Farm Service Agency in Emery/Carbon Counties reminded producers on Aug. 4 that FSA offers specially-targeted farm loans known as Socially Disadvantaged Applicant Loans. These loan programs are designed to help farmers purchase and operate family farms, “With these loan programs, FSA hopes to help reverse the declining number of farmers and ranchers across the United States and especially here in Emery/Carbon Counties,” said Brady. “These loans help to encourage and assist them in owning and operating their own farms and ranches, participate in agricultural programs, and become integral parts of the agricultural community.” According to Brady, FSA reserves a portion of its loan funds each year for SDA loans. USDA defines socially disadvantaged applicants as a group whose members have been subjected to racial, ethnic, or gender prejudice because of their identity as members of the group without regard to their individual qualities. For purposes of this program, socially disadvantaged groups are women, African Americans, American Indians and Alaskan Natives, Hispanics, and Asians and Pacific Islanders. In fiscal year 2007, FSA obligated nearly $300 million in SDA loans across the nation. Direct loans are made to applicants by FSA and include both farm operating and farm ownership loans. Guaranteed loans also may be made for farm ownership or operating purposes, and may be made by any lending institution subject to Federal or State supervision (banks, savings and loans, credit unions, and units of the Farm Credit System including the Bank for Cooperatives) and guaranteed by FSA. Typically, FSA guarantees 90 or 95 percent of a loan against any loss that might be incurred if the loan fails. For additional information or applications for all FSA direct loan programs contact your local FSA Office located in the USDA Service Center nearest you. 1090 N Des Bee Dove Road, Castle Dale, UT 84513, 435-381-2300 x114. |
