Coos Bay man arrested for stabbing, kidnapping By DAVID RUPKALVIS The World
A Coos Bay man is behind bars after allegedly stabbing one person and attempting to kidnap another before fleeing onto the campus of Southwestern Oregon Community College. On Friday, Oct. 27, at around 5:37 p.m., a 9-11 caller reported he had been attacked and stabbed near the entrance of John Topits Park. Coos Bay police immediately responded to the scene, they found the
man, who told them 40-yearold Brian Springer of Coos Bay had attacked the victim and his girlfriend and tried to kidnap the woman. Springer was an estranged boyfriend of the woman. Coos Bay police, assisted by other law enforcement agencies began searching for Springer near Topits Park. Just before 6 p.m., a Coos County Sheriff’s deputy saw Springer on the campus of Southwestern Oregon Community College, at which time Springer ran off.
With Springer loose on campus, Coos Bay police asked that the college lock down all buildings to keep students and other safe. A few minutes later, Coos Bay police located Springer and arrested him in the parking lot of the college. Prior to his arrest in the violent attack, Coos Bay police were already searching for Springer in relation to other incidents in the city. Springer was transported to the Coos County Jail, where he is currently being
held on charges of assault 2, attempted murder, attempted kidnapping, menacing, coercion and unlawful use of a weapon in relation to the stabbing incident. He was also booked on charges of attempted burglary 1, attempted criminal mischief 2, burglary 2, theft 2, identity theft and giving false information to a police officer in relation to previous incidents in Coos Bay. At the time of his arrest, Springer also had a number
of outstanding warrants from the Clackamas County Sheriff’s Office and the Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office. Springer is currently being held in the county jail on four felony charges and eight misdemeanor charges. The Coos Bay Police Department was assisted by the Coos County Sheriff’s Office, North Bend police, SWOCC Campus security and maintenance, Bay Area Ambulance and the Coos Bay Fire Department.
An early start to Halloween Trick-or-treaters got an early start to celebrating Halloween last weekend during a trunk or treat hosted by the city of North Bend. Hundreds of children dressed up in the Halloween best gathered in downtown North Bend to get treats from a variety of businesses and other organizations. There were also games and fun activities as little goblins and ghouls celebrated on a beautiful Saturday morning.

Volunteers needed for historic cemetery cleanup By BREE LAUGHLIN The World
Oregon’s Bay Area Beautification group’s monthly volunteer cleanup falls on Veteran’s Day this month. Volunteers will be cleaning up the historic Marshfield Pioneer Cemetery in recognition of the holiday. The historic cemetery served as the Coos Bay region’s primary burying ground in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The cemetery is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and encompasses four acres of greenspace with more than 2000 gravesites and about 1200 gravestones. “We have people that were in unmarked graves here that
were World War I veterans and some Civil War veterans as well,” said Cricket Soules, a Marshfield Pioneer Cemetery caretaker. She and her daughter, Becky Soules, have been embarking on an ongoing project to find and recognize veterans who were buried at the cemetery – as well as other cemetery restoration projects. “We are always finding new information,” she said. Soules says she enjoys learning about the history of the cemetery and those who were buried there. She also enjoys working with students and teaching them about local history via the pioneer cemetery. Those who volunteer to clean up at the cemetery will
be helping to honor those who were buried there, Soules said. “We could use the help,” she said. Oregon Bay Area Beautification board members encourage volunteers to bring their kids and friends to learn about Marshfield Pioneer Cemetery as they make it a more beautiful place for everyone to enjoy. Projects will include weed eating, planting, clearing around graves and some restoration projects. The cleanup is rain or shine (unless there are dangerous conditions). Volunteers are encouraged to wear appropriate clothing and footwear and bring gas powered weed eaters with

Spartans deny Marshfield repeat volleyball title
North Bend finishes fourth at state tourney JOHN GUNTHER For The World
SPRINGFIELD — The tears told the story as much as the scoreboard Saturday night at Springfield High School as Marist Catholic denied Marshfield a second straight volleyball state title. The Spartans outlasted the Pirates in a match that went the full five sets and then some. In a tense fifth set that included nine lead changes both teams had match points before the Spartans finally converted one on a Marshfield error. Marist Catholic won 19-25, 25-22, 23-25, 25-23, 17-15. It was the Spartans’ first title since 1998. Marshfield was trying to win its second in a row after claiming the first in school history last year. It didn’t happen, but the loss to the Spartans doesn’t tarnish a great run for the Pirates. “It’s an honor to get here two years in a row,” Marshfield coach Tammie Montiel said. “It’s hard to defend the title. You’ve got a target on

your back.” Added senior Paige Macduff, “I think we played hard and I think we made history. Even if we didn’t win, we still did great this year.” The Pirates were ranked No. 1 the entire season and finished with a 27-4 record overall. Two of the losses came in tournaments when
Marshfield advances to quarterfinals
Marshfield advanced to the Class 4A football quarterfinals by beating La Salle Prep in a defensive showdown in rainy Milwaukie on Friday night, 12-7. All the scoring came in the first half and the Pirates never trailed. Ashton Thornton connected with Steel Carpenter on a long touchdown pass and John Lemmons scored on a short run to put the Pirates in front 12-0 and the defense kept Marshfield there. The Pirates forced four turnovers, including three on consecutive possessions in the second half as La Salle Prep tried to rally. Carpenter and David Bouska both had interceptions for Marshfield and the Falcons also missed one field goal and had another blocked by Marshfield. Next up for the Pirates is a quarterfinal matchup at Seaside. The Seagulls blanked visiting Estacada 26-0 in another first-round game Friday. The winner of the Marshfield-Seaside quarterfinal will meet either Mazama or Marist Catholic in the semifinals. The Pirates beat Mazama at home in the regular-season finale just to reach the playoffs and the Vikings topped Pendleton 24-6 in the first round. Marist Catholic, the No. 2 seed, topped Crook County 42-14. Marshfield and Marist Catholic are Sky-Em League rivals in all sports but football, where they are in separate special districts. HEPPNER 28, BANDON 7: The Tigers saw their season end in a road loss in the first round of the Class 2A playoffs on Saturday. Bandon ends the season with a 6-4 record. Heppner will play Regis in the quarterfinals. The Rams blanked Stanfield 64-0 on Friday. GOLD BEACH 16, BLANCHET CATHOLIC 0: The Panthers shut out the visiting Cavaliers on a rainy night in Gold Beach to advance to the Class 2A quarterfinals. Gold Beach will visit Lowell in the second round. The No. 3 seed Red Devils beat Clatskanie 48-12 on Friday in their first-round matchup. BOBCATS MEET ADRIAN: Myrtle Point will battle Adrian in the eight-player quarterfinals. As the No. 3 seed, the Bobcats had a firstround bye. The quarterfinal battle in Myrtle Point will be a rematch from the regular season. Myrtle Point beat Adrian 54-46 back in the season opener. The other quarterfinal on Myrtle Point’s half of the backet features No. 2 Crane hosting Enterprise. POWERS HOSTS ECHO: Powers will be home for the quarterfinals in the six-player bracket after having a first-round bye. The Cruisers are the No. 2 seed after posting their third straight unbeaten league season. Echo topped host Alsea 38-6 in the first round Friday night.
matches are played best two sets out of three, to Class 3A champion Sisters and Class 5A fifth-place finisher Crater. The other two losses came in five-set matches against Marist Catholic. The Pirates and Spartans each beat the other at home, with Marshfield sweeping Marist Catholic near the end
of the season. Before Saturday’s championship match, the Pirates had not lost a set in the postseason, sweeping La Grande to get to the state tournament and then The Dalles and Cascade in the quarterfinals and semifinals. It looked like they were on pace for another sweep after Marshfield overcame a slow
start in the first set, trailing 5-1 and 6-3, before scoring six straight points to take control. In the second set, the Pirates again got off to a slow start, trailing 12-4 before rallying all the way back to eventually take the lead Please see VOLLEYBALL Page 12
Petrey places eighth at state for Bandon JOHN GUNTHER For The World
EUGENE — Bandon sophomore Marley Petrey has had a rough fall marked by a huge growth spurt, but she finished the cross country season in style Saturday, placing eighth in the Class 3A/2A/1A girls state meet at Lane Community College. Petrey grew by a full inch just within the past few months and hadn’t run as well as she was hoping. But she had a great race Saturday. “It’s definitely redemption,” she said. “My last couple races I didn’t do well for me. They felt really bad. “This race, I came in with the mindset to try your absolute hardest, but have a lot of fun.” So when she had a great first mile and was feeling strong, everything fell into place. “Coming in not stressing too much turned the tide,” Petrey said. Petrey crossed the line in 20 minutes and 15 seconds, picking up 17 spots in the final mile. Valley Catholic’s Jaya Simmons was the individual winner in 18:20, pulling away from 2022 champion Daisy Lalonde of East Linn Christian, who finished in 19:03. Petrey led the Tigers to fifth place in the team race, one spot out of the trophy hunt. Analise Miller was 28th (21:00), Giada Moore 29th (21:02), Lilly Iverson 53rd (22:00), Safaa Dimitruk 59th (22:21) and Gracie Sullivan 103rd (30:00). Siuslaw finished second in the team race behind Oregon Episcopal. The Aardvarks scored 66 points, whie Siuslaw had 95, Heppner/Ione/Condon 125, Enterprise/Joseph/Wallowa 128 and Bandon 144. Alison Hughes led Siuslaw in 15th place (20:33), Corduroy Holbrook was 17th (20:36), Maya Wells 22nd (20:47), Adylin Holbrook 32nd (21:06), Addison McNeill 36th (21:21), Abigail Jones 46th (21:35) and Jane Lacouture

January 16, 1934 – October 21, 2023
Gayle realized the fullness of grace when she went home to be with her Savior, surrounded by her children, October 27, 2023, at the age of 82. Her life was full and rich, having loved many and been loved by many. She treasured life and people and never knew a stranger. Her family was her passion and that extended to her many friends. Fiercely independent, Gayle had a ready hug, big smile, listening ear, easy laugh and a sassy, mischievous spirit. Born and raised in San Francisco, she also lived in North Hollywood and Newhall, California and eventually settled in Bandon, Oregon which she called home for the last 48 years. Gayle was always active and worked many jobs; a secretary for an auto body shop, caregiver, an aide at Blanco School and Bandon’s SDA School and 24 years at Langlois Market. Her big personality, fun bantering and sense of humor was an asset, a bright spot in each of her work places. Her life took a dramatic turn when her sister, Sheila told her about Jesus and she accepted the grace and mercy offered her by her Savior in 1972. Gayle was part of Grace Community Church while living in California and Langlois Community church while living in Bandon. Gayle retired in 2021 to be able to spend more time with her many grandchildren, great grandchildren and friends. Sporting events, movies, family gatherings at her home around her pool, music, one on one conversations and eating out with friends and family were her joy. Gayle was one of a kind. Her unwavering faith, love and kindness touched many lives and she will be greatly missed. She is survived by her children and their spouses, Diana Swenson (Tom), Thomas Thompson (Sharie), and Jacob Thompson (Paula); eleven grandchildren, Rachel Roberts (Mike), Caleb Swenson (Amber),

Letters to the Editor Keep looking at offshore wind Addenda to my Letter-ToThe-Editor published in the 10/06/23 edition of “The World” newspaper (Coos Bay, OR.) There are several additional arguments to be made for taking a hard look at Offshore Wind Energy (OSWE) along the southwest Oregon coast/ Port of Coos Bay: 1. When and if offshore wind does come to our communities, and if the Port of Coos Bay is fully involved, the buildout time, extent, and impact will be far more manageable because it will be gradual and allow for proper planning for housing, schools, roadways, infrastructure, etc. By contrast, a container ship facility will be one big, “short-lived” construction project, quite disruptive if the Port’s number of 4,000 construction jobs is accurate. 2. If the Port of Coos Bay engages in OSWE to the level that the Port of Humbolt (Eureka, CA.) already has, we could gain more permanent jobs here than a highly automated container facility. These jobs would range across a broad spectrum of skills: some for manufacturing, assembly, and placement, highly skilled maintenance technicians, the craft and crew needed for all of the sectors, and the people required to handle the energy generated and transmitted on the grid. Current studies have shown that some aspects of OSWE negatively impact some marine life, but others are not and could even thrive. Can we do this in a way that enhances marine life and helps fisheries? We know shipwrecks and other underwater “structures do so. 3. Because energy production is a constant, it would not be subject to the impact of supply chain disruptions and economic downturns that the container facility would be. OSWE jobs would be far more sustainable. 4. The ocean is already in trouble due to warming waters, acidification, hypoxia, man-made pollution, and even changes in currents. The fisheries people already tell us that. OSWE may cause some collateral damage, but it is minuscule compared to what is already caused by climate change, which is only the tip of the iceberg. OSWE is being pursued for precisely the purpose of reducing ocean warming and helping stabilize our climate. That’s a win! 5. Lastly, and in some ways the most generally important, is the amount of badly needed scientific data to be generated and gained in exploring the pathways to OSWE. For this to work, we need to learn everything we humanly can about the ocean off our shore, its marine life and shore life (including birds), the geologies of the ocean floor right down to a matter of actual feet (footprint) as to where the best possible, least harmful locations for wind farms are.

Amendment Resolution in Support of Reviewing the 14th Amendment to Determine Candidates Eligibility for Office WHEREAS, the 14th Amendment to the United States Constitution, Section 3, states: “No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress, or elector of President and Vice President, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any State, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress, or as an officer of the United States, or as a member of any State legislature, or as an executive or judicial officer of any State, to support the Constitution of the United States, shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof”; WHEREAS, on January 6, 2021, a violent attack occurred at the United States Capitol, with the goal of overturning the legitimate results of the 2020 Presidential election, which resulted in deaths, injuries, and significant damage to the Capitol building; WHEREAS, there are legitimate concerns about the potential threat to democracy and the rule of law if an individual who has been impeached for incitement of insurrection is allowed to run for public office again, including the highest office of the land; and WHEREAS, the Democratic Party of Coos County believes in upholding the principles of democracy, the rule of law, and the Constitution of the United States; THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Democratic Party of Coos County expresses its support for reviewing the 14th Amendment, Section 3, of the United States Constitution as a means to disqualify candidates from seeking public office, including the presidency, based on actions that incited insurrection against the United States government; BE IT THEREFORE RESOLVED, that the Democratic Party of Coos County encourages our elected representatives including our Secretary of State to consider and explore the legal and constitutional avenues available to prevent individuals who have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the United States from holding public office, in accordance with the 14th Amendment to the Constitution of the United States of America.

Rotary Club of Gold Beach As a long time former Rotarian, I appreciate what our local Rotary Clubs do for our communities and around the world. I had the opportunity to speak to the Gold Beach Rotary Club, give them a legislative update and answer some of their questions. Conservative Conversations in Winston I was able to join Representatives Wright and
Goodwin, Douglas County Commissioner Freeman, Douglas County Clerk Loomis and members of the Umpqua Valley Republic Women to speak about issues facing our communities in Douglas County and where we need to go as a state. I appreciated the opportunity to join them and my colleagues, and I look forward to our continued work together for our residents and their communities. Oregon Republican Party Convention After joining the Joint Interim Committee on Addiction and Community Safety (the new Measure 110 Committee) I headed to Pendleton for the Oregon Republican Party Convention that is held every two years. Thank you to all of our PCP’s that attended and the ORP Leadership Team, I appreciate all of your work across our state. It was great to see some of my colleagues there as well and I want to thank House Republican Leader Helfrich for his impassioned words. I want to also thank Chairman Hwang for allowing me the privilege to preside over the afternoon platform convention. Finally, I was able to join former Alaska Governor and Vice Presidential Nominee Sarah
Palin for dinner. She was a delight and I appreciated her kind words and the ability to have some Q&A with our attendees. Meeting with our Contractors I enjoyed meeting with some of our southern Oregon members of the Associated General Contractors. Our contractors play a pivotal role in our communities. From housing to highways, utilities to buildings of all sizes, this industry is a critical economic driver for our district and across our state. Thank you for the opportunity to discuss the issues facing the industry, ways we can help in the legislature and how we can move our communities and Oregon forward. More to come on our push to fulfill the overwhelming majority of Oregonians desire to repeal Measure 110 to save lives and give our law enforcement officers the tools they need to protect our residents and their communities, as well as Wood Products, Oregon Business & Industries and work in and around the district. As always, thank you for the privilege and honor to work for you in the Oregon State Senate. Be safe and God Bless you, your family and your neighbor.
Letters to the Editor (Continued) Very disappointed I am extremely disappointed in your article about the recall effort in Lakeside. I have never read a story with so many accusations and falsehoods. You have blatantly caused a lot of discontent in our small community and put false information in the hands and minds of voters. You are supposed to be unbiased and that just does not come across with this article, whatsoever. 1. You could ask why Councilor Tom Miller and Councilor Alan Pointer were not part of the recall? They both voted to purchase the property at 105 S. 8th Street, when Councilwoman Smith voted no! It is not vacant land. There is a two-bedroom house on the lot that can be used for retail or even possibly rented. The price increase also had to do with a large building on the property that had to be demolished and removed that contained asbestos, Plus the special conditions that the planning commission put on LSP4LIFE LLC, they fulfilled those requirements and were still denied. 2. “Demoting Dennis Langley as public works director then giving his title to the wastewater superintendent along with a $5,000 raise”. Another false accusation. Did you even look at the budget to see what happened? Dennis Langley was not demoted, and he lost no pay. The only thing that changed was restructuring of the organizational chart. Instead of answering to a clerical position he now answers to a department where somebody can be there if he needs help. And he still gets his COLA raise.
3. As for the rebranding of the city logo? Did former mayor James Edwards tell you that he voted for it and said “it was a good use of funds”?
enough signatures, but they could not do it on facts, so they had to make up lies and exaggerate what few truths they did tell people.
4. Did you just interview all the recall petitioners and people that signed the signature sheets and just assume they were honest? There have been recalls in Lakeside dating back before 2009 and every single recall has either involved Mike and Elaine Armstrong or been instigated by Mike and Elaine Armstrong according to The World Newspaper articles. But you never asked anybody on the council any questions or for an interview or anything else. You took the word of approximately six citizens that are upset and ran the story. A story made up of lies and incorrect information and you assumed that they false information in the hands of voters who originally voted for us. But nobody was being honest with you. And instead of doing due diligence, you put about talking to citizens who agreed with purchasing the property for an investment. You have made it sound like the whole city of Lakeside is upset with me and the council and that is just not true. You took opinions from people that have touted on Facebook “we’ve lost control of our city” and discredited citizens of Lakeside that voted for who they wanted. Other people that had been on the council did not get reelected because it was time for a change. So how you can take the word of a handful of people and turn it into a news story is beyond me. Granted the recall petitioners did get
It is not okay to have spent money for investment of the future of Lakeside, but it is okay to spend $20,000 to $30,000 on recall elections and special elections. There was no mention of the fact that if the mayor and city council are recalled, they will not have a quorum to conduct city business or appoint more council members therefore we get to spend another $10,000 to $15,000 on a special election (per the charter and our City Attorney). So now we dip into the contingency fund and transfer that to the elections. All because some residents do not agree with investing money in our community. So, my letter to the editor was edited and part of it cut out. But your article has a lot of biased information from the reporter. I personally will be canceling my subscription and will be encouraging others to as well. People are defending you saying how fair you are, but I do not see that. The last few times I’ve read the paper I’ve been very disappointed and the fact that you’re reporters put so much of their own opinion into their stories it’s not even news. You can no longer be trusted as a reliable source for news. Mayor Kinsey Lakeside Wrong priorities Maybe you didn’t like what Trump said. But what about his policies? We had world peace, affordable gas, food, and a secure border! Biden doesn’t care about us! He’s for the global New World Order, and pushing EV’s. Beverly Wilson Coos Bay

Prospective purchasers of residential property should be aware of this potential danger before deciding to place a bid for this property at the trustee’s sale. NOTICE TO RESIDENTIAL TENANTS The property in which you are living is in foreclosure. A foreclosure sale is scheduled for 01/11/2024 (date). The date of this sale may be postponed. Unless the lender that is foreclosing on this property is paid before the sale date, the foreclosure will go through
and someone new will own this property. After the sale, the new owner is required to provide you with contact information and notice that the sale took place. The following information applies to you only if you are a bona fide tenant occupying and renting this property as a residential dwelling under a legitimate rental agreement. The information does not apply to you if you own this property or if you are not a bona fide residential tenant. If the foreclosure sale goes through, the new owner will have the right to require you to move out. Before the new owner can require you to move, the new owner must provide you with written notice that specifies the date by which you must move out. If you do not leave before the move-out date, the new owner can have the sheriff remove you from the property after a court hearing. You will receive notice of the court hearing. PROTECTION FROM EVICTION IF YOU ARE A BONA FIDE TENANT OCCUPYING AND RENTING THIS PROPERTY AS A RESIDENTIAL DWELLING, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO CONTINUE LIVING IN THIS PROPERTY AFTER THE FORECLOSURE SALE FOR: • 60 DAYS FROM THE DATE YOU ARE GIVEN A WRITTEN TERMINATION NOTICE, IF YOU HAVE A FIXED TERM LEASE; OR • AT LEAST 30 DAYS FROM THE DATE YOU ARE GIVEN A WRITTEN TERMINATION NOTICE, IF YOU HAVE A MONTH-TO-MONTH OR WEEK-TO-WEEK RENTAL AGREEMENT. If the new owner wants to move in and use this property as a primary residence, the new owner can give you written notice and require you to move out after 30 days, even though you have a fixed term lease with more than 30 days left. You must be provided with at least 30 days’ written notice after the foreclosure sale before you can be required to move. A bona fide tenant is a residential tenant who is not the borrower (property owner) or a child, spouse or parent of the borrower, and whose rental agreement: • Is the result of an arm’slength transaction; • Requires the payment of rent that is not substantially less than fair market rent for the property, unless the rent is reduced or subsidized due to a federal, state or local subsidy; and • Was entered into prior to the date of the foreclosure sale. ABOUT YOUR TENANCY BETWEEN NOW AND THE FORECLOSURE SALE: RENT YOU SHOULD CONTINUE TO PAY RENT TO YOUR LANDLORD UNTIL THE PROPERTY IS SOLD OR UNTIL A COURT TELLS YOU OTHERWISE. IF YOU DO NOT PAY RENT, YOU CAN BE EVICTED. BE SURE TO KEEP PROOF OF ANY PAYMENTS YOU MAKE. SECURITY DEPOSIT You may apply your security
deposit and any rent you paid in advance against the current rent you owe your landlord as provided in ORS 90.367. To do this, you must notify your landlord in writing that you want to subtract the amount of your security deposit or prepaid rent from your rent payment. You may do this only for the rent you owe your current landlord. If you do this, you must do so before the foreclosure sale. The business or individual who buys this property at the foreclosure sale is not responsible to you for any deposit or prepaid rent you paid to your landlord. ABOUT YOUR TENANCY AFTER THE FORECLOSURE SALE The new owner that buys this property at the foreclosure sale may be willing to allow you to stay as a tenant instead of requiring you to move out after 30 or 60 days. After the sale, you should receive a written notice informing you that the sale took place and giving you the new owner’s name and contact information. You should contact the new owner if you would like to stay. If the new owner accepts rent from you, signs a new residential rental agreement with you or does not notify you in writing within 30 days after the date of the foreclosure sale that you must move out, the new owner becomes your new landlord and must maintain the property. Otherwise: • You do not owe rent; • The new owner is not your landlord and is not responsible for maintaining the property on your behalf; and • You must move out by the date the new owner specifies in a notice to you. The new owner may offer to pay your moving expenses and any other costs or amounts you and the new owner agree on in exchange for your agreement to leave the premises in less than 30 or 60 days. You should speak with a lawyer to fully understand your rights before making any decisions regarding your tenancy. IT IS UNLAWFUL FOR ANY PERSON TO TRY TO FORCE YOU TO LEAVE YOUR DWELLING UNIT WITHOUT FIRST GIVING YOU WRITTEN NOTICE AND GOING TO COURT TO EVICT YOU. FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR RIGHTS, YOU SHOULD CONSULT A LAWYER. If you believe you need legal assistance, contact the Oregon State Bar and ask for the lawyer referral service. Contact information for the Oregon State Bar is included with this notice.

Obituaries (Continued on Page 9) Ramon “Ray” Brongil February 6, 1954 – October 24, 2023
Ramon “Ray” Brongil was born February 6, 1954 in Tacoma Washington to John and Pauline Wertz Brongil. The dimpled blue eyed boy soon displayed an affinity for sports. He set records starting in Junior High in shot put and went on to wrestling and football. He loved music and played percussion. After graduation in 1972 from Lincoln High School in Tacoma, he attended Whitman College on a football scholarship. From there his desire for adventures took him to Southern California where he worked construction to gain residence status in California and then enrolled at California State University Chico to study cultural anthropology. During his stay in southern California he helped with handling the elephants, lions and chimpanzees used for various appearances in the movie industry. Realizing that in order to live, you need money, he left the college scene and started his career with the US Postal Service. During his early years of his career he enjoyed camping and fishing in the Washington rain forest and rendezvousing with the mountain
men enthusiasts. He had numerous stories about the encampments. In 1988 he married his best friend, Jennifer and along with Jennifer he gained a daughter, Netty. He met Jennifer while working for the Postal Service and they quickly became an adventurous family. His competitive spirit served him well as he attained the position of Postmaster of Santa Fe, New Mexico after serving in various offices throughout the west. His love of the mountain man era made Santa Fe his ultimate goal for its history and he took advantage of learning about the area while living there. In 1993, after a reorganization, he chose to leave government service and start his own company. He and Jennifer relocated back to the northwest, choosing to settle in Bandon, Oregon and thus began RayJen Coffee Company. He had a lifelong love of cooking so he opened coffee shops in Bandon and Crescent City, California. The coffee business allowed Ray and Jen to travel to other countries and tour coffee farms. Ray served as a judge for the Specialty Coffee Industry in various competitions.
The coffee community is close and he formed many friendships with producers, importers, roasters and the end consumers. After a stroke he retired from the coffee business and daughter, Netty bought the business and continues the family tradition of roasting fine coffee. His love of cooking extended to the neighborhood as he would make culinary gifts at Christmas time to pass out to the neighbors. His family meals around the table were legendary at holiday time and birthdays. We always said the dining room table was the best investment we ever made as wonderful conversations were held there through multiple generations. He was always smoking, brining, curing or fermenting some culinary delight. In retirement he found a new interest in Ham radio and earned his general license with call sign KK7RAY. His tenure with the Coos County radio club was short but again, great friendships were made. The family would like to thank Pacific Home Health and Hospice and United Homecare Services for their care and friendship over the last few months. We would also
like to thank the Bandon Rural Fire Department for their help after a fall and the numerous EMT staff that answered our calls for assistance. He is survived by his wife, Jennifer; daughter, Netty Taylor (Rob Taylor); grandson, Havoc Taylor (Destiny Smith); great granddaughter, Layla Ramona Taylor; and his favorite pet rabbit, Snuffy. In addition to immediate family Ray is survived by a sister; brother; brother-in-law; 3 sisters-in-law; and numerous nieces and nephews.

Obituaries Michael Paul Johnson June 29, 1947 – October 22, 2023
Michael Paul Johnson, also known as Mike, or to his kids, “Pop”, was born in Mahnomen, Minnesota, on June 29, 1947. He died on October 22, 2023, at Grande Ronde Hospital with two of his nurse mentees at his side - his daughter, Liz, and his work daughter, April. Mike’s family moved from Mahnomen, Minnesota, to Myrtle Point, Oregon, when he was 4 years old, and he spent his growing up years in Myrtle Point, having many adventures with his older brother, Tom. Mike loved wrestling and playing football, and he graduated from Myrtle Point High School in 1965. He attended community college at Southwestern Oregon Community College (SWOCC) for two academic years and transferred to Southern Oregon College (now Southern Oregon University) at the age of 21 to play football and study math and science. Mike then transferred to Portland State University in the fall of 1968 but decided to drop out of school, cash out his tuition money, and drive with a friend to attend the 1968 Olympics in Mexico City. He met his future wife, Anne Kronsberg, in August of 1968 at the Coos County Fair in Myrtle Point. Mike and Anne married in September of 1970, and they started their family shortly thereafter, having Benjamin “Ben”, Elizabeth “Liz”, and Matthew “Matt”. While his children were young, Mike worked various jobs without a formal career plan. Mike had the idea to return to college and become a nurse, and he placed his name in the lottery for entrance to the SWOCC nursing program. He was selected for the
program and started on his journey to becoming a nurse. Mike graduated from nursing school in 1978, and he began his lifelong career as a nurse. He worked in a psychiatric unit, an emergency department, and an orthopedic surgical office in the North Bend/Coos Bay area from 1977-1989. Mike moved his family to La Grande, Oregon, in 1989 so that his kids could live at home and graduate from a 4-year university, an opportunity he always wanted to have. He took a job in the operating room at Grande Ronde Hospital where he worked for the last 26 years of his nursing career. He frequently said that the best two decisions he made in life were marrying his wife, Anne, and becoming a nurse. His other proud accomplishment was building a 31-foot aluminum fishing boat from scratch over a ten-year period of time, which he named “Joanna” after his first grandchild. He only caught himself on fire once while building it, and the Joanna has been a great place for family time and many fishing trips. As a husband and dad, Mike would admit he wasn’t perfect, but he gave everything to make a comfortable life for Anne and to help his kids succeed in life, work, education, family, fishing, and home improvement projects. As a grandpa, he loved his grandkids more than any other humans in the world. As a nurse, Mike loved teaching, precepting, and mentoring students and any nurse who would listen. He loved taking care of babies and kids, and he always carried children in his arms back to their families after surgeries because he couldn’t stand hearing them cry.

Mike fought a short battle with cancer, which he stalled on getting diagnosed because he didn’t want to give one of his favorite doctors, Dr. Pat McCarthy, the satisfaction of being right. He was stubborn to the end, but that’s why we all loved him so much. During his last week of life, he spent time in Grande Ronde Hospital and was incredibly happy to be back in his second home with old friends and his former work family. Mike’s family would like to thank the staff of GRH for all they did in caring for us and for honoring the essence of who Mike was and his wishes. We would also like to thank the staff for listening patiently to Mike instructing them through procedures (that they already knew how to do) and listening to Mike’s many stories that came out during his stay about his nursing career and his time working at GRH. Mike is survived by his wife, Anne, to whom he was proudly married for 53 years, and his children, Ben (Anne) Johnson of Bellevue, Washington, Liz (Fred) Wolotira of Pendleton, Oregon, and Matt (Kristin) Johnson of La Grande, Oregon. He is also survived by his best friend and older brother, Tom (Sara) Johnson of Eugene, Oregon, and his younger brother, David (Julie) Johnson of Coos Bay, Oregon. Finally, he is survived by his grandchildren: Joanna and Steve Litalien, Jonathan and Olivia Wolotira, Andrew Wolotira and Taylor Wickett, Ella Johnson, Oliver Johnson, and Elliott Johnson. Mike was preceded in death by his parents, James and Queena (Lindeman) Johnson; brother, Oscar Johnson; and his sisters, Betty Scully, Carol Sturgill, Kathy Johnson, and Judy Johnson.
Mike didn’t want a depressing funeral, so instead we will have a “Remembering Mike” storytelling party with coffee and desserts on Saturday, November 11, 2023, at 1 p.m. at the La Grande National Guard Armory, 404 12th Street, La Grande, Oregon. Please bring a story or two about Mike to share, preferably in written form, so that we can make a memory book for his grandkids. All those who knew and loved him or our family, those he took care of, and those who cared for him are invited to attend. In lieu of flowers, we would ask that donations be made to the newly formed EOU Michael P. Johnson Memorial Scholarship which will support others going into the nursing profession. Please make donations to the Eastern Oregon University Foundation, Badgley 107E, One University Boulevard, La Grande, OR 97850-2807, and note that donations are in honor of Michael P. Johnson.

Woman arrested after fleeing from traffic stop On October 27 at 9:45 a.m., a Coos County Sheriff’s deputy attempted to conduct a traffic stop of a sliver Ford Ranger for several traffic violations. The vehicle tried to speed away and abruptly stopped on Whisky Run Road near mile marker 1. The female driver fled from the driver’s seat while a man exited the passenger seat and aggressively approached the deputy. The man was identified as Darryl J. Sullivan (55), who had warrants outstanding for his arrest. Sheriff’s Office K9 Cena tracked the female driver and located her about 250 yards into the brush, hiding at the bottom of a steep hill in the brush. She was identified as Chakara R. Hoyle (31) and was taken into custody for attempting to elude by foot. Hoyle was also cited for driving while suspended. Hoyle and Sullivan were transported to the Coos County Jail, where they were booked and remain in custody. The vehicle was towed from the location as it was not registered to either individual and had a punched ignition, which allowed Hoyle to use a screwdriver as the ignition key.

twice, the last time at 22-21 on an ace by Ava Ainsworth. That turned out to be the last lead of the set for the Pirates as Marist Catholic got three kills in four points by Avia Tuguldur. The third set was tight most of the way and Marist Catholic was poised to go in front 2-1 in the match, leading 23-21 on a kill by Lauren Rohman. Rather than fold, the Pirates scored four straight points to take the set — two on attack errors by the Spartans and the final two on kills by Bridget Gould. That gave Marshfield momentum going into the fourth set and the Pirates led 23-22 after a kill by Macduff. But the Spartans got the final three points — two kills by Kimmy Spurlock sandwiched around a hitting error by the Pirates, staying alive in the match. That set up the dramatic final set, normally a race to 15 points. Neither team led by more than two and the score was tied 10 times in addition to all the lead changes. The Spartans had the first match point, leading 14-13 after a kill by Giana Elgarico. But Gould tied the set back up with a kill and an error on the next point by Marist Catholic gave Marshfield match point leading 15-14.

Marist Catholic scored the final three points on a kill by Tuguldur, a block by Tuguldur on a hit by Gould and an error on Marshfield for the final point, which prompted the Spartans’ huge student section to rush the court and celebrate with the team. Marshfield’s girls, meanwhile, hugged each other and family members, consoling each other for the heartbreaking setback. Montiel said just like her team, the Spartans played well. “Credit to them,” she said. “They were down and came back. We were down and came back.” Marist Catholic just came back one time more. Typical in a five-set match, there were a lot of impressive numbers, including 27 kills by Gould. Tatum Montiel added 20 kills and Macduff 16 for Marshfield and Ainsworth had 56 assists and five aces. Five different Pirates recorded double digits for digs, including 20 by Gracie Peach and 15 by Ainsworth. For the Spartans, Elgarico had 28 kills and Tuguldur 16 and Rohman had 56 assists. Marist Catholic also did a great job getting a hand on Marshfield’s hits at the net or digging them up before they could hit the floor. Four Spartans had at least 12 digs in the match. Gould, Macduff and Elgarico all were voted
to the all-tournament first team by the coaches and Ainsworth, Rohman and Marist Catholic’s Avy Roundy were on the second team. Despite the loss, Tammie Montiel said her team played well, keeping up the energy to handle the roller-coaster momentum swings through the night. “I’m proud of the girls,” she said. “They fought really hard.” The coach got emotional talking about the squad, especially seniors Macduff, Gould, Peach and Caitlyn Browning. “I will miss those seniors,” she said, adding that she had spent years working with them, stretching back to even before they were in high school. The group had a unique career, since their freshman year also was the year the COVID-19 pandemic started. That fall, aside from a few matches in Reedsport, which had more flexible rules because it is in Douglas County, all of the Pirates’ competition was outside on football fields. The spring season was short and Marshfield’s next season came to an end one match short of the state tournament. The Pirates won last year and nearly again this year and Macduff said she will remember how the team’s chemistry helped the squad succeed together.
“I’ll remember the nights after the wins,” she said. Ten of the 12 Marshfield players in uniform Saturday also were on last year’s championship team — the seniors Peach, MacDuff, Browning and Gould; juniors Ainsworth, Tatum Montiel, Alie Clark, Analise McCord and Gwyn Button; and sophomore Chloe Runn. “It’s disappointing to not come away with the championship, but we’re going to hang another banner in the gym,” Tammie Montiel said. All Marshfield squads that either win state titles or finish second get a banner in the rafters at Pirate Palace. Marshfield advanced to the championship match with a pair of sweeps on Friday. The Pirates beat The Dalles 25-13, 25-19, 25-14 in the quarterfinals and then topped Cascade 25-15, 25-21, 25-22 in the semifinals. Marist Catholic had a tougher route to the championship bout. The Spartans had to rally from two sets down to beat Crook County in the quarterfinals 21-25, 28-30, 25-14, 25-20, 158. Then Marist Catholic lost the first set again before beating Mazama in the semifinals 25-27, 25-22, 28-26, 25-18. Combined with North Bend’s fourth-place finish, the Sky-Em League had three of the top four teams in the final tournament standings. “I’m proud of the SkyEm League,” Tammie
Simonds in 47th (19:32), Eli Vineyard in 61st (20:20), Sawyer Miller in 73rd (22:14) and Max Wales in 75th (22:31). Reedsport was led by Clayton Wilson in 43rd (19:19). He was followed by Jude Lichte in 55th (19:50), Kyle Dillahay in 66th (21:12), Joe Smith in 68th (21:34), Vegas
Lichte in 78th (26:31) and Justus Lawson in 79th (40:00). The Brave were in the meet as a team for the first time in three decades. Myrtle Point’s Eli Nicholson was 37th in the individual race (18:55). Union/Cove edged Knappa by three points
for the team title. Grady Greenwood of Heppner/Ione/Condon won the individual title in 16:12.

Montiel said. BULLDOGS FINISH FOURTH: North Bend won a pair of matches on Saturday to take home the fourth-place trophy at the Class 4A tournament. North Bend was knocked into the consolation bracket when it lost to Cascade in the first round 25-18, 25-14, 23-25, 25-13 on Friday. The Bulldogs bounced back Saturday morning by rallying to top The Dalles 25-18, 22-25, 21-25, 26-24, 15-5 in the consolation semifinals. And in the fourthplace match, the
Bulldogs beat Tillamook 26-24, 25-18, 22-25, 25-14. North Bend finished the season 19-7, with the losses coming twice each to Marshfield and Marist Catholic, once to Class 3A champion Sisters, once to Class 5A Churchill and in the quarterfinals against Cascade. The North Bend squad included seniors Lennon, Ayla and Mirra Riddle, Madison West and Emma Spalding; juniors Shelby and Ashley Howard, Drew Hood, Rylee Samora and Kaylianna Mazzucchi; Sophomore Carley Lucero and freshman Norma Curley.
Valley Catholic easily won the team title with 63 points, while Oregon Episcopal and Enterprise/Joseph/Wallowa both had 117 (OES got the higher trophy best on a faster sixth runner) and the Vikings had 134. Vale’s Trevor Stewart edged Jett Leavitt
of Enterprise/Joseph/ Wallow by one second to win the title in 16:18. Linton finished in 16:54. Siuslaw’s other runners were Dylan Jensen in 22nd (17:41), Talan Ross in 37th (18:04), Kale Jensen in 46th (18:20), Camden Linton in 49th (18:22) and Ilijah Jones in 83rd (21:27).
