CORVALLIS — The Panthers
ended a years-long losing
streak to Corvallis Friday night
in a game that was decided in
overtime.
Central (13-1, 4-0 Mid-Wil-
lamette Conference) defeated
Corvallis 54-50. That was the
first time coach Julie McDon-
ald had one of her teams beat
the Spartans in her six years
of coaching. McDonald said
the team struggled early, but
pushed the game to overtime.
“It was probably one of
our poorest shooting nights,”
she said. “We just played well
when we had to.”
McDonald said Friday’s win
against a solid Mid-Willamette
Conference team was a wel-
come improvement from last
season when Central dropped
some close contests.
Central also defeated South
Albany 64-28 on Jan. 16.

PERRYDALE — The Pirates
boys’ basketball team scored
two wins on Jan. 16 against
Oregon School of the Deaf, 66-
48, and Livingstone Adventist
Academy, 66-53, on Thursday.
Coach Brian Domes said get-
ting out to early leads allowed
him to get reserves some valu-
able experience in both games.
“The kids played well,”
Domes said. “We were trying to
take care of the teams that we
need to take care of.”
Perrydale (14-4, 7-1 Casco)
played Willamette Valley Chris-
tian on Tuesday after press
time and faces Crosshill Chris-
tian at home on Friday.
Friday’s game could de-
termine the league leaders,
because if Perrydale defeats
Crosshill Christian (15-4, 8-0
Casco), they will be tied for No.
1 in Casco.
“If we beat them and don’t
lose another league game, we
will be co-champions,” Domes
said. “That’s the best-case sce-
nario.”

Jesus on Sunday, Jan. 21, in
Portland. Edna was born on
Dec. 9, 1921, to Isaac H and
Justina (Goosen) Janzen in
Henderson, Neb. She was the
second of six children and lived
in the Henderson and Aurora,
NB area until she was 15 years
old. The Janzen family moved
to Dallas in 1936, and Edna
lived continuously in Dallas
until 2010.
Edna met Oliver Linscheid
at Grace Mennonite Church
(now Grace Community) in
1942. Soon after they started
dating in 1943, Oliver was
drafted into the Army.
He asked
her to marry
him in a let-
ter, and sent
her engage-
m e nt r i ng
in a box of
chocolates.
They were
married on July 12, 1944. While
Oliver was in Europe during
World War 11, Edna worked in
the cannery in Salem and then
at JC Penney’s in Dallas.
Oliver built the three homes
that they lived in until his
death in 2010, and Edna
was so pleased with those
homes. They had five chil-
dren, and Edna greatly loved
her children, as well as her
12 grandchildren, and her 18
great-grandchildren.
Edna accepted Jesus Christ
as her Lord and Savior when
she was 17 years old. She was
a member of the Grace Men-
nonite Church.
She taught Sunday School
for many years. She helped
start the Priscilla Circle, sewing
many layettes and blankets for
babies in Africa and India until
she was 80 years old.
From 1990 to 1999, she vol-
unteered in a Self-Help store
selling merchandise from poor
countries and sending the
money back to the people.
She loved reading her Bible
and Our Daily Bread faithfully.
She loved crocheting, sewing,
canning, and especially loved
flowers of all varieties.
Edna lived in Portland
with her daughter, Myrna and
family for the last seven and
a half years, and brought the
Joy of the Lord into the lives of
everyone she came in contact
with. She attended Greater
Portland Bible Church during
her last years.
Edna was preceded in death
by her parents; husband Oli-
ver; brothers Alvin and Clar-
ence; sisters Gladys and Esther.
She is survived by her brother,
Jake Janzen, in Orange, Calif.;

(Bill) Olfert, Beverly (Jim)
Randolph, Richard (Marilynn)

mensely.
