Show Panguitch News By Mamie Talbot 676-8084 Has anyone noticed now that the snow and ice have disappeared that some of our garbage cans or "green boxes' as they are usually called have come up missing? It's shocking to carry ones little bag of garbage to where the neighborhood box should be and find nothing there. Of course the first reaction is "some dirty rat has stolen our box." It's okay folks. Due to the keen investigative work and brilliant deductions of the local P.I. (Panguitch Informant) that is, and a drive past the county shed and yard, familiar shapes were seen cleverly disguised under a shining coat of brown paint and stenciling. What a relief. Now if the garbage bags and the garbage boxes can just find each other at the right time and place spring cleaning can proceed. Stay tuned to this channel for the further saga of "The Mystery of the Green Boxes." We were saddened by the sudden death of former Garfield County Sheriff and friend George Middleton of a heart attack. The Middletons lived here for many years. Our condolences to Madalene, Vic, Val and Sherrie and families. Another loss is that of Darlene Evans' mother, Ilene Roberts of Antimony. She had a long struggle. Our love to Doug, Darlene and all the family. Leland Pollock's Chevron station is turning into a big city business. With the additions and changes it will be a combination mini mart, gas station and an Arby's eatry. An attractive building in the middle of town! Dennis and LeAnn Moser's daughter Michelle was here for the weekend visiting with her folks. This lovely weather makes for fun traveling to and from St. George. We have a new pharmacist in town. Tim and Cindy Smith and their baby are welcome. Tim is. working at !he Panguitch Drug and the hospital. Steve Marshall needs help and a rest. Tyler Owens, son of Gary and Carta Owens was ordained a Priest in the Panguitch LDS Third Ward. Carvel Henrie had serious surgery in St George. He is doing fairly well. Dean and Virginia Englestead and family Jarom, Andrew, Chase, Bracken and Melissa were speakers also in the Third Ward matting. They gave thoughtful ideas on gospel teachings.

Also Alan, Mickey and Adam Talbot came over from Enoch to see Mamie and Barbara, who always find ways to take advantage of Alan's talents. He is so willing. Beverly Crosby and sister Ardith Davis met their Uncle Rulon and Aunt Mable Torgerson of Koosharem at Bear Valley Junction. V1' Yi mi TiYi i iiVi'i m They took Mable, 82, with them to St. George to see her sister Iris Sorenson who will be 99 in April. Out of eight children the elderly sisters are the onl ones 'eft of il.eir family. Iris s&I jokes and laughs and enjoys life. The three traveling ladies attended the temple which was a first for Mable, as she lives in the Manti district so had not had a chance to visit the St George temple. The party visited with nephews and neices from Dixie to Panguitch where Mable stayed with Ardie over night. They then took Mable home to Koosharem by way of Richfield where they had a final lunch together. Mable said she had never had so much fun in many years. Those Roe girls do make for a good time. Bev later kept a doctors appointment in Dixie where she was told she will only need to return in six months. Good news. FolksPlease have any news items to rr, by Friday mornings so I can have it in the County News box by noon. Thanks, Mamie. |
