Show mmn&i nuns By Earl Roe 676-2376 wearlroeyahoo.com I'm sure you have all heard the joke about the plumber who left an obstacle in a pipe to insure a future job. Well, making mak-ing an error in writing a column does the same thing. It gives you something to write about if not much news comes your way. In last week's column, I named the wrong Alisha Hatch as a nurse in the hospital at Cedar City. You can blame this error on one of two things, my birthday (122822) or I missed taking my Ginko Biloba that day. I want to apologize to Alisha, Alisha, Janice, and Kenny. Norma's nurse was Alisha (Orton) Hatch, Kennys daughter. I also want to thank Barbara Talbot for bringing this error to my attention and I hope this mistake caused no serious problems. Max Excell, superintendent of the Shoshone, Ida., school district has been honored by being named as the "Administrator Of The Year". Dan North, president of the Idaho Music Educators presented present-ed Max with a plaque and letters of commendation at a band concert con-cert held Apr. 11 at Shoshone High School. The letters all commended Max on his commitment com-mitment to music and to seeking what is always best for the students. stu-dents. Max began his teaching career in Utah and is a graduate of Panguitch High School (Class of 1957). He is the son of Hilma Excell and the late Jim Excell and a brother of Evan Excell, state director of our high school activities association. Congratulations, Max, on receiving this great honor! If you have visited the hospital hospi-tal recently, maybe you have noticed that the bust of Dr. Duggins is back in the foyer where it should be. While Art Cooper was a patient a week or so ago, he kept telling everyone that the bust should be out where everyone entering the hospital should see it as a reminder that Dr. Duggins was largely responsible for our having hav-ing the first hospital in Panguitch. I wonder if he ever envisioned us having the fine facility we now have? In today's mail, I received a short cassette-taped message from Fred Heywood which was quite a surprise and very enjoyable. enjoy-able. Fred wanted to visit with me and express his feelings about the Garfield County News. Fred was born and raised in Panguitch and graduated from PHS in the late 40's or early 50's. He attended barbers school and has been a barber for 45 years and has been in his shop in West Valley City for the past 35 years where he is still going strong. Fred is the son of the late True and Clara (Syrett) Heywood, and as such, still has lots of relatives in our area. The tape conveys the feeling that the Garfield County News is so much a part of Fred's life today. Monte and Cleo Marshall had an enjoyable family-filled Easter weekend with their daughter, Mary Lou and husband, hus-band, Craig Pearson, of Idaho, granddaughters Mary Ann and husband Randy Cranes and three children of Logan, Patty Pearson and fiancee Jared Sorenson of Idaho, and Anne Anderson and her three children of Panguitch, and grandchildren Leah Pearson, Colin Marshall and Julie Marshall who are all attending Southern Utah University who also came over to get in on the fun. Grandma Cleo organized an easter egg hunt for all of the young ones and everyone had a wonderful time. If Patty bought her finacee Jared to meet the family, this appears to have been an opportune oppor-tune time. The theme for this year's PHS Junior Prom is "A Night in India" and Alana Davis has outdone out-done herself in making props (decorations) for the Juniors. I hope everyone has an opportunity opportu-nity to see them. If, beginning years ago, we could have had a CCC arena-sized building in which to have stored all of the props Alana has made for the many proms and other events, we could have made a tourist attraction second to none. What a shame that they can't be saved!
