Locals train on shooter scenario
The Sisters-Camp
Sherman Fire District hosted
a three-hour active-shooter
training session and table-
top exercise for local emer-
gency responders and school
officials. Deschutes County
Emergency Manager Sgt.
Nathan Garibay delivered
the training and facilitated
the exercise. The exer-
cise focused on coordi-
nated response to potential
acts of violence within the
community.
Seventeen people from 11
different public and private
agencies attended the train-
ing. Tours of Sisters High
Obituary
School and Sisters Middle
School were offered after the
training.
Participants in the train-
ing discussed agency-spe-
cific operating policies and
opportunities for further
collaboration.
Fire Chief Roger Johnson
said, “One of the strengths of
the community is how effec-
tively emergency response
agencies work together.
There are five law-enforce-
ment agencies and three fire
districts that would immedi-
ately respond to this type of
incident.”
Deschutes County 911
Service District and St.
Charles Medical Center
also would play a critical
role in response and treat-
ment of injured people.
Representatives for both
agencies also attended the
training.
Additional training exer-
cises will be held in the
future to allow agencies to
further hone their skills.
Future exercises likely
will include practical sce-
narios, which will allow
for hands-on practice and
coordination between pub-
lic agencies and emergency
responders.
Ronald
Charles
Goldsmith was born on
November 24, 1931 in
Portland and passed peace-
fully January 7, in Sisters.
Growing up, his family
lived in Corvallis, Shedd,
and then Tumalo where he
learned to do all the vari-
ous chores on the farms.
He attended high school in
Redmond, lettering in sev-
eral sports, then completed
his junior and senior year
(in one year) in Madera,
California at Sharon Bible
and High School. After
graduation from high
school, he attended the
Bethesda Bible Institute
in Portland. It was here he
met his future wife, Helen.
After graduating, he worked
for Greyhound Bus Co. and
drove bus for Dunthorpe
Motor Stage while attending
diesel trade school. Upon
completion he worked for
Cummins Northwest: 28
years in Portland and nine
years in Bend.
Moving to Sisters from
Portland in 1988 for the
dry climate he remembered
from his youth, Ron retired
in 1997. He enjoyed work-
ing around home, travel-
ing and camping in the RV,
watching sports and news
on TV. He was an avid
Bible reader and liked lis-
tening to Southern gospel
and classical music while he
read.
He was preceded in death
by his parents, Charles and
Mildred, sister Joyce and
infant son, Keith. Surviving
are his wife of 63 years,
Helen; daughters Joanne
Goldsmith (Redmond),
Juanita Young (Wenatchee),
Diane
Hampton
(Gladstone); and son Wayne
Goldsmith (Denver); four
grandchildren; nine great-
grandchildren; sisters

life will be held on February
