Alice is survived by sons, Robert Wilson and wife Bonnie, Clifford Wilson and fiance Anita-Beth, daughter Evva and husband Mike Pryor Sr., and many loving grandchildren and great grandchildren.

Constance Dale Dolan passed away April 10, 2013 at her home in Amity,OR. She was born to Marjorie B. Dale and William C. Dale of Red Bluff, CA on February 19, 1950. After graduating from Red Bluff High School, she attended Linfield College, where she met and married John Wiggin Dolan on July 25, 1970. After attending Linfield and Purdue University, she completed a B.S. degree at the University of California at Davis in 1974. At Davis she then earned an M.S. in 1976, specializing in child development and community development. Connie lived in Boston, MA, then Thornwood, NY, where her son was born, then moved to San Jose, CA, where her daughter was born. She started a parent-coop preschool in NY and volunteered in her childrens' schools throughout their tenure. In 1987 she moved back to Oregon, where she resided with her family in the Eola Hills. She volunteered as a leader in 4H, in the public schools, and at her church, McMinnville Covenant. She worked for several years in the office at the McMinnville Airport, where she also earned her private pilot's license. She loved gardening and cooking - her extravagant desserts will be missed by all those who sampled them. Connie met her best friend, Jesus Christ, when she was a child, and that relationship was reflected in all her interactions throughout her life. She will be remembered for her deep caring, positive outlook, encouragement, and bubbly nature. The story of her miraculous healing from multiple sclerosis has been an inspiration and encouragement for many.

CHP seeks hit-and-run driver Red Bluff CHP is seeking the driver in a hit and run sometime Saturday in the area of Blackburn Avenue, east of Oren Avenue, in which a 1989 Gold Honda was left behind. The driver was going east on Blackburn on a dirt portion of the road, at a speed unsafe for conditions, when they lost control of the vehicle, ran off the northeast side of the road and hit a power pole. The impact caused moderate damage to the Honda. The driver fled the scene, leaving the vehicle. It is unknown if the two incidents are related, but Corning Police logs show report at 8:34 a.m. Saturday of a brown Honda Civic taken from the Spring Mountain Apartments, 240 Edith Avenue, in Corning. At 8:49 a.m., a woman reported a brown Honda had crashed into a power pole on Blackburn Avenue and said that the pole was leaning over. An accident report taken by CHP. The vehicle was recovered by Corning Police. Scrap metal theft A 30-year-old Corning man was arrested for reportedly stealing $1,200 in scrap metal and other items from a Gerber residence Thursday. The 41-year-old victim of the crime contacted the Tehama County Sheriff's Department that 2,000 pounds of scrap metal, tires, an aluminum "Headache Rack" for a truck as well as oxygen and acetylene tanks were taken from his property on the 5600 block of Highway 99W. Deputies went to a local recycler and described the items to employees, according to a department press release. The employees told deputies they had purchased those items from Mark Mosier. Deputies contacted Mosier at his residence, who denied stealing the items he sold to the recycler. Deputies located an oxygen tank and acetylene tank in Mosier's driveway. The victim responded to the location and identified the tanks as the pair that were stolen from his residence. When questioned about the tanks, Mosier said he found them near the victim's residence, but denied stealing them. Mosier was arrested for possession of stolen property. Bail was $15,000. THE PASSING PARADE charity work for the community," Isom recalled. "Fred was a wonderful role model," said Walt Payne, who retired as CEO of Blue Diamond 11 years ago. "He listened carefully. He spoke thoughtfully. If he felt he had something to add, the best thing you could do was listen. You would no doubt be wiser as a result." His children continue Montgomery's legacy in farming. "The other day I was out at the orchard they manage," Isom recalled. Along came a vehicle with "Fred's son Mark and the driver was Fred the third," and another generation of Montgomery in the back seat, Isom said. Montgomery was also involved in water issues, said retired farmer and former Butte County Supervisor Ed McLaughlin. Several decades ago, Montgomery spearheaded research in the Butte Basin, including projects to monitor groundwater levels. This work is still respected and referenced today. (From Dave Minch's I Say column circa 1942) 28 years ago another Democrat was inaugurated President for the first time. Banks closed all over the country and the new president had to make momentous decisions without any waste of time. Many of his decisions were very humanitarian and some of his ideas were not so practical. One of his best efforts were the now nearly forgotten CCC camps. These were forest camps where young men, unable to get jobs or support themselves were taken off the streets and moved to these camps for a few years. They were given food, clothing, medical care and $30.00 was sent to their parents or dependents. Minch's Market had just expanded their grocery department to include a slaughter plant and meat market. We were all young and ambitious and welcomed the newly formed CCC camps as a great opportunity. Each camp consisted of a regular army Captain, one or two Lieutenants, a young doctor and around three hundred young men looking for trouble. The camps were wooden buildings or tents and were situated at Mineral, Lyonsville, Paynes Creek, Old Station, Patton Mills, Coppervale and many other nearby locations. We made it our business to meet every troop train whether it came in day or night. Although the headquarters were in Redding, we were the only welcoming committee and the only ones to tell them how to get to their camps and explain the different items we were allowed to sell them such as bread, vegetables, fruit, emergency meat, candy and coke. And peculiarly barrels of coconut and large amounts of tea. In return we kept up on all the gossip and often could tell them what was to happen in the near future. Although most rations were on contract to larger corporations, the officers made every effort to give us all possible business. Otto Cuningham was the express agent in Red Bluff and the meat was supposed to be sent in from San Francisco because no one outside of S.F. Sacramento and Los Angeles had federal inspection in those days. The only place to store fresh meat was on cakes of ice at Cone Ice. The weather was hot and in between the Food Camp trucks and the Express Office and the Ice House, the meat shipped from the city often missed connections and spoiled, necessitating emergency purchases from us. After a few months of this, a law was passed that meat could be purchased from California State meat plants if they followed certain regulations relating to construction and cleanliness. I applied immediately although there was no poorer plant than the converted barn we were using. We didn't even have electricity, and all the meat slaughtered each day had to be hauled to our store on Main Street where we had refrigeration. Processing and selling to the CCC camps was largely responsible for our staying in business during the great depression. (to be continued) Robert Minch CARE TO COMMENT?
