Storms dump more than 2 inches of rain on Fairfield, swells local creeks GFAISON@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

FAIRFIELD — An evacuation warning remained in place for the Suisun Creek area for a fifth day Saturday as emergency services officials continue their watch on Lake Curry, which crested the dam Friday and spilled into the designed spillway. The warning remained just that – a warning – as officials continued to monitor not only the water level downstream from Lake Curry along the Suisun Creek, but at the other county lakes and creeks as well. More than 2 inches of rainfall has been recorded since midweek at Travis Air Force Base. Periodic flooding on Suisun Parkway gave

way Saturday to a full closure in both directions from Abernathy to Kaiser Drive due to continued flooding and ongoing debris removal. Cordelia Road was also closed between Link and Hale Ranch roads. Should an evacuation order be given, it would target people who live within a quarter-mile of the creek on either side. The evacuation warning extends the length of the creek in Solano County, from the Napa County line down to Chadbourne Slough. There are no other evacuation warnings or evacuation orders in the county at this time, the county Office of Emergency Services reported in its afternoon media See Storm, Page A9

Ukraine apartment tower strike by Russia kills at least 9 Bloomberg News At least nine people were killed and dozens others wounded after a Russian missile strike demolished much of a high-rise apartment building in the Ukrainian city of Dnipro. The hit was part of Russian coordinated strikes on Ukraine after a roughly two-week pause, starting with what were called ballistic-type missiles aimed at Kyiv and

the surrounding region in the morning and following up with an afternoon attack believed to have come from as many as 17 fighter jets. Air defenses intercepted 25 of 38 missiles fired Saturday, including high-precision rockets that Kremlin forces launched from various directions, Ukraine’s Air Force said on its Facebook page.

Fairfield bids final farewell to Mayor Harry Price Susan Hiland SHILAND@DAILYREPUBLIC.NET

FAIRFIELD — It was a poignant, sometimes funny and a little teary farewell Saturday to longtime Mayor T. Harry Price at Mount Calvary Baptist Church. During the two hour memorial service at Mount Calvary Baptist Church, bagpiper Matthew Welch opened the two-hour memorial service by playing "Amazing Grace." Airman 1st Class Keegan Bushouer then sang "The StarSpangled Banner" as the Travis Air Force Base Honor Guard presented the colors. Harry Price's pastor, the Rev. Anne Choy, senior pastor for Com-

munity United Methodist Church, read John 14:1-3 and spoke of Price's faith and work in the church. She felt that as sad as people were and as hard as it was to talk about Price, he would have told her – and everyone – "You got this. You will be OK." Price, 85, died Dec. 16, 2022 at home. He was the son of Wilcie and Annebelle Price, born in 1937 in Pennsylvania. He was the second of six children. Price grew up in a large family, serving in the Army National Guard and earned his undergraduate degree from Lock Haven State University. Mark Lillis, CEO of Leaven See Price, Page A9
