When I’m Gone: When I come to the end of my journey and I travel my last weary mile. Just forget if you can, that I ever frowned and remember only the smile. Forget the unkind words I have spoken, remember some good I have done. Forget that I ever had heartache and remember I’ve had loads of fun. Forget that I’ve stumbled and blundered and sometimes fell by the way. Remember that I have fought some hard battles, and won, ere the close of the day. Then forget the grief for my going, I would not have you sad for a day. Remember me, if you will, enjoying those things that brought me a smile. My family, my organ music, may “carnie” life, those memories will show case me at my best. Funeral services and burial will be private and at the convenience of the family.

She was raised in Longview and graduated from Longview High School in 1946. She then went on to graduate from Multnomah School of the Bible in Portland, Ore. in 1949. It was while she was attending Multnomah that she met and fell in love with Claude W. Leavitt. They were married on June 4, 1949 in Portland, Ore. In 1950, together, they went as pioneer missionaries with CrossWorld (UFM International) to the jungles of South America. Barbara and Claude worked in the interior of British Guyana with the Wai Wai Indians. While there, they learned the native language and taught them the Word of God. In 1960 they made contact with the Trio Indians of Suriname. Barbara was the first Caucasian woman the tribe had ever seen. Barbara and Claude lived among the tribe, learned their language, put it into print, and taught them to read and write. In 1974 Barbara and Claude moved to Boise to continue the translation of the New Testament. She accompanied Claude on several trips back and forth to Suriname. Barbara had many interests that included cooking, baking and welcoming others into their home, offering hospitality to everyone. She wrote many letters over the years keeping friends and family updated with their work and giving encouragement to those she loved. Barbara loved working in her yard and flower gardens. She was always delighted when her children and grandchildren came to visit. Up until her last weeks she was actively involved in her church and mission work. She was a caring, compassionate person who was always looking out for the needs of others. She had an adventurous spirit that helped her adapt to her many various surroundings. Whether in the jungles of South America or in Boise, she made our house a home. She made life fun for the family. After Barbara was diagnosed she was comforted by the following verses in Psalm 73, "But God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever. But as for me the nearness of God is my good; I have made the Lord God my refuge, that I may tell of all Thy works." She is survived by her loving husband, Claude W.

Charles was the youngest of three children and only son of Jerome pioneer parents, David Alphonse L'Herisson and Adlene La Page L'Herisson. He treasured his parents and deeply loved his sisters, Valetta McGill and Marjorie Titus, who preceded him in death. Chuck lived all but the last three of his 94 years in Jerome, though he left for study and military service. He attended three colleges, including Notre Dame University, where he enjoyed being a member of the football team. His love of Notre Dame football continued for more than 70 years through the last game of this 2010 season, which they happily won. He was an avid supporter of the Jerome Tigers for many years and a sports enthusiast in general; he focused much of this enthusiasm on the golf course. When the draft started before World War II, Chuck was the first man in Jerome to be selected, and he spent five years in the U.S. Army. After his return home, he joined his father at L'Herisson's Furniture. At that time, the business supplied many other home needs as well as furniture. In 1946, Chuck took over management, and the store gradually shifted focus to fine furniture and accessories, expanding to Twin Falls, Burley and Ketchum, Idaho. In the 1980s, he contributed his innate discernment and design skill with business friends in San Francisco to form Siebert, Cox and L'Herisson, a high-end Asian imports firm. Attracted to the enduring beauty of ancient Asian artistry for the rest of his life, he loved keeping many oriental design pieces in his furniture store and family home. Charles met the love of his life, Dorothy Giesler, skiing in Sun Valley, Idaho in 1948. They lived a full and wonderful 59 years together in Jerome, sharing laughter and much fun on ski hills and golf courses, with friends and in travel. They also shared a deep bond of family love and a focus on civic responsibility. Dorothy passed away, March 11, 2008. They have one daughter, Tracy L'Herisson, who lives in Eagle, Idaho. Chuck was a devoted friend and citizen of his town and state. Throughout his life, he served in many ways to help enhance life for those around him. He ran for state senator, was a member of the Jerome Chamber of Commerce and Jerome Rotary Club and, in the early years, was a member of the Jerome Jaycees and served on many advisory committees and beautification boards in Magic Valley. After retiring from business at age 79, he enjoyed working with Interfaith Volunteer Caregivers, helping people in the valley access their medical needs. Chuck had a special ability to live in the present moment yet he always had a vision for the future. He thoroughly enjoyed his design work and lived to create places of beauty; he thrived in service to his community all of which continued until the last months his life. Charles left behind a legacy of practical wisdom, quick humor, sparkling wit, and uncommon gentlemanliness. These qualities were much appreciated in the many places he visited and by people he knew, especially in the final years of his life. His family will forever feel the void left by his passing, and they wish to extend gratitude to everyone who was involved in his care. Memorial donations may be sent to Interfaith Volunteer Caregivers, 459 Locust St. North, Suite 106, Twin Falls, ID 83301.

Tuesday, April 7, 1914. p. 1.DULUTH, Minn. April 6. - Although the mystery which shrouds the death of the late John McAlpine, wealthy Duluth lumberman, who was found shot through the head in the besement of his East end home on the morning of Aug. 15, 1913, is yet unsolved, facts and circumstances have come to light within the last few days which are claimed by some to support the theory that the well known lumberman was not murdered but came to his death by his own hand. A motive for suicide is said to have been supplied through the fact that at the time of his death he was quite deeply involved financially, that claims aggregating between $200,000 and $300,000 had piled up against him, as a result of various deals, and that he was engaged at the time in a controversy in the courts of California over the title to timber lamds estimated to be worth more that $250,000. The suicide theory is inclined to by Mrs. Mattie B. Titus, widow of W. M. Titus, a former business associate, who has been in the city for the last few days gathering data and information to be used in a lawsuit, which she is bringing in the courts of California against the McAlpine estate. Mrs. Titus and Mrs. Sarah McAlpine, widow of John McAlpine, are sisters. Mrs. Titus is suing the McAlpine estate as administratix of her husband's estate. In the pending litigation it is claimed that Titus purchased a half interest in a large tract of land and had the property recorded in McAlpine's name with the understanding that he, Titus, was to receive a title to one-half of McAlpine's interest of one-fourth of the entire tract, upon payment to McAlpine of $78.000. Pursuant to this agreement a contract for a deed was entered into between the two men. While Mr. and Mrs. Titus were on their way to San Francisco during the month of October, 1911, for the purpose of raising the $78,000 required, Titus died. It is understood that the defense to the suit will be that Titus released McAlpine from the contract for deed. According to Mrs. Titus the purported release will be contested as a forgery.________________________________________________________________McArthur, Maurice Edward, age 91 of Fredericton passed away at the Veterans Health Unit on January 26, 2009.

He was born Aug. 19, 1913, in Omaha, the son of Dr. Samuel and Elizabeth McCleneghan. Sam Jr. graduated from Omaha Central High School in 1932. After high school, Sam attended New Mexico Military Institute in Roswell, N.M., where he graduated after two years as a Cadet Major in the cavalry. After NMMI, Sam worked as a cowboy on his uncle?s 90-section sheep and cattle ranch in New Mexico and the following year on a large cattle ranch in Wyoming. After cowboying, Sam returned to college at Utah State University in 1938 where he earned his bachelor?s degree in range management. Upon graduation, Sam moved to Valley to take over operations on his father?s farm. In Valley, Sam met Delia Rose Titus from Pilger, who was teaching there. Sam and Dee were married in 1940 and moved onto the family farm west of town on Highway 64. Sam began designing and building farm equipment for use on the family farm. His wagon boxes for transporting picked corn, and a towable, gas powered corn elevator were soon in demand by Midwest farmers. Sam found himself in the business of manufacturing farm equipment for sale and the Valley Manufacturing Company was born. The company flourished with Sam?s many ideas and inventions. By the late 1940s, it had outgrown the shop on the family farm and he moved the company to its present location, now known as Valmont, along old Highway 275 northwest of Valley. Sam continued to build and grow the company constructing other kinds of agricultural equipment and pipe for the irrigation industry. He recognized the significance of an idea for a rotary self-propelled irrigation system brought to his company by an inventor. Over the next couple of years Sam worked to engineer the design and perfect the operation of this innovative irrigation system. Today these rotary center-pivot irrigation systems are a common sight and are Sam?s most widely recognized contribution to the agriculture industry worldwide In the mid-1950s, Sam sold his manufacturing company and moved his family to Texas to work on diesel power systems for the agriculture, oil, and marine industries. He also helped design and engineer remote controlled generators to power the Defense Early Warning Line (DEW Line) inside the Arctic Circle. In the early 1960s Sam returned to Nebraska as general manager of Fremont Foundry and Machine Co., later known as Nebraska Steel. There he made the company a leader in the construction of large, centrifugal pumps for the irrigation and gravel dredging industries. Sam retired in 1967. He and Dee traveled widely throughout the U.S., Europe, the Mediterranean, the Caribbean, Mexico, Tahiti and China. They moved to Sun City, Ariz. in 1989 where Sam enjoyed the warm climate, golf with friends and where he served as a volunteer teacher in high school wood shop for many years. Survivors include: his wife, Dee, in Sun City, Ariz., to whom he was married for 69 years; a son, Kim and his wife in Herald, Calif. and his two granddaughters; a son, Sam III and his wife, four grandsons and two great-grandsons in Breckenridge, Colo. Sam will be buried with his wife's family in Stanton. Fremont Tribune. Jun. 20, 2009.________________________________________________________________McClinchey, Robert H.

"Tiny," 87, of Maple Park, died Saturday, Feb. 11, 2006, at her home. The loving hands of her family and caregivers released her into the waiting arms of her heavenly Father. She was born Sept. 29, 1918, near Streator, the third of eight children born to Charles and Ella (Shawback) Schroeder. She grew up on a farm near Leonore, Ill., where she attended a local school. After finishing the eighth grade, Dolores moved to Aurora, where she worked as a nanny and later as a beautician. As the years passed, her brothers and sisters found their way to Aurora to live with Dolores before they were married or began careers of their own. During World War II, Dolores worked as a welder at All Steel in Aurora. In the late 1940s, she met Donald Morris. Don and Dolores were united in marriage on Jan. 7, 1950. Don built their first home, and they lived in Aurora until 1955, when they moved to rural Elburn. Dolores was truly an old-fashioned farm wife, mother and homemaker. She managed the livestock, raised the kids, the garden and did the canning. She was the world's best pie maker and a wonderful baker. Her life was centered around her children, and she had an uncanny way of always knowing where they were and what they were doing. She always was calm and never needed to raise her voice; she just had a way of making the kids feel "appropriately" guilty. She was a good listener, and her home was where all of her children's friends liked to "hang out." Her career was being a mom, and she was fantastic at it! Don died on Thanksgiving Day, 1985. Dolores continued on alone, drawing on those same strengths that had seen her through the years of raising her family. In 1980, she suffered a stroke that left her with expressive aphasia. She understood everything and remembered everything, but could not express it in the usual way. Those limitations did not keep her from running her household and managing her life. In 2004, she was diagnosed with lung cancer, and again she amazed those around her. In so many ways, so many times, Dolores simply persevered to beat the odds against her and simply overcame, without fanfare but always with great humor. Dolores was a member of Community Congregational Church, Elburn. She is survived by her three children, Charles (Jean) Morris of Montgomery, Kay (Dana) Titus of Maple Park and James (Karen) Morris of Doha, Quatar; five grandchildren, Kimberly Morris of Kansas City, Mo., Katie (Thomas) Carvell of Clarksville, Tenn., Donald Morris of Baton Rouge, La., Tara Titus of Denver, Colo., and Tony Titus of Maple Park; two great-grandchildren, Jennifer and Ryan Carvell; three siblings, Lois (Darrell) Chambers of Peru, Ill., Lila (Richard) Fetzer of Aurora and Elaine Barr of Peru, Ill.; three sisters-in-law, Charlotte Miller of Hinckley, Gladys Liltz of Elk Grove Village and Norma Schroeder of Hemet, Calif.; one brother-in-law, Jerry Fauth of Edgerton, Wis.; and three very special friends and caregivers, Linda Klingbeil, Ronnie Pancoast and Melody Needham. She was preceded in death by her parents; her husband, Donald; three sisters, Arlene Rose, Roseanne Fauth and Bernice Schroeder; one brother, Keith Schroeder; two sisters-in-law, Elizabeth Grover and Clara Morris; and six brothers-in-law, Floyd and Ernie Morris, Carl Barr, Ira Grover, Harold Rose and Francis Miller. Visitation will be from 3 to 9 p.m. Wednesday, Feb. 15, at Conley Funeral Home, 116 W. Pierce St., Elburn. The funeral will be at 10:30 a.m. Thursday, Feb. 16, at the funeral home. The Rev.

Morris Memorial and mailed in care of P.O. Box 66, Elburn, IL 60119. Kane County Chronicle.

In a day and age when men are weak in leading their families in spiritual things, in this area my dad was a champion. He provided in the natural, but never put that above the spiritual. What we have seen in his life was unique and special, but for him it was easy because he loved as Jesus loved him. He would want all of us to live our lives for eternity. To make sure that every moment we live we do it to impact others. Wherever my dad went he made his mark for the positive. If you know Jesus as my dad did, this is an awesome thing because you will see Dale again. As my dad said many times, "Jesus' love is like a coat, put it on and let it warm you and comfort you." Let Jesus into your heart and you will understand why my dad lived his life with purpose, strength and love. He is lovingly survived by his wife, Deborah Nelsen, of Appleton; children: Soren (Jennifer) Nelsen of Appleton; Elizabeth Nelsen of Appleton; grandchildren: Quinn and Titus Nelsen; sister, Kay (Cyrus) Bjerke, and several nieces and nephews.
