2A Wednesday, November 23, 2016 Appeal Tribune OBITUARIES Howard Vincent Wurdinger Jr. SPECIAL TO THE APPEAL TRIBUNE Ben Piper, Wilbur Ellis branch manager, presents a check for $5,000 to Don Robison, FBYC executive director. Ben was joined by lawncare expert Mike Damann, also of Wilbur-Ellis. FBYC Continued from Page 1A Crucial to that service are the FBYC grounds and outdoor spaces. Visitors typically arrive Friday eve- ning and stay through Sunday at the retreat center and participate in lessons and programs aimed at helping them grow in their spiritual lives. “Providing youth a chance to blow off energy is key to obtaining their attention for the next set of in- structions,” said Emma Seiler, FBYC’s programs co- ordinator. “We try to build up the entire person: body, soul and spirit, whether we are putting on the pro- gram or simply playing host for a group’s own pro- gram.” A portion of the grant will afford added drainage in the main back lawn where, ironically, Robison said the Wilbur-Ellis check presentation took place atop a spongy surface. He noted that the lawn is already very soft and holding water that could easily drain off with the addition of tiles and drain veins toward the bluff. “We are excited we may focus on making our out- door spaces even better for retreats in the future,” said Mark Dol, FBYC’s day-to-day operations and fa- cilities manager. “Young people in particular need open spaces where they can burn off energy and rec- reate together, allowing their minds to become more open to any lessons or activities to follow.” Robison said FBYC is an independent Catholic Lay Ministry serving in the Archdiocese of Portland. It receives no direct funding from the Archdiocese or any other entity. About a third of its $350,000 bud- get is derived from program fees, while donors to provide for the balance of its financial needs. “We are a volunteer and donor-supported organi- zation” Robison said, “We have a small staff, still less than before the economic disasters of 2008, but could do none of this without the prayers and support of our network of volunteers and benefactors. “We are excited and very thankful for the gift from Wilbur-Ellis and look forward to a lasting part- nership with them to develop young people,” he add- ed. “Please thank a farmer, nurseryman or Wilbur- Ellis employee…It truly takes a village to raise a child. In this case, it takes a village to keep a place like Fr. Bernard Youth Center open and available so that they may come.” For information, visit www.fbyc.info.

Silverton Appeal Nov. 23, 2016 Jan. 15, 1966 — Nov. 10, 2016 How- ard Vin- cent Wurd- inger Jr., of Scotts Mills, was born in Sa- lem to Howard Sr. and Mary Wurdinger. He graduated from Woodburn High School in 1984, and after obtaining a barbering license from Moler Barber College, he began working in Febru- ary 1985 at Hair of Today barbershop in Canby. In February 2015 he was forced to retire due to a brain tumor. Generations of fam- ilies faithfully came into the traditional barber- shop to see Howard, who sported a handlebar mus- tache, a friendly smile, lively conversation and of course great haircuts. With similar rapport, he served on the Scotts Mills city council. Howard Jr. was an avid outdoorsman. He guided Dall sheep hunt- ers in Alaska and went hunting and fishing with brothers, sisters, fam- ilies and friends. Howard Jr. was also an excellent trapper. He enthusiasti- cally taught his outdoor skills to youngsters and actively participated in the Canby Rod and Gun Club. On March 22, 2003, he married the love of his life, Gloria Murray. How- ard and Gloria explored Oregon, enjoyed camp- ing, hiking, identifying and photographing wild- flowers, picking huckle- berries and clamming. At home, they liked garden- ing and landscaping. Howard often took pro- duce and dahlias to the church next door on Sun- day mornings. Always available to lend a helping hand, Howard will be greatly missed as an exceptional friend, brother, son, un- cle, son-in-law, and hus- band. He is survived by his loving wife, Gloria; moth- er Mary Wurdinger of Mt. Angel; brothers An- thony (Karen) of Mt An- gel, Walter of Silverton, Jeffery (Marlene) of Gervais, and Sidney (An- gela) of Scotts Mills; sis- ters Lucinda (Tim) Wurd- inger-Kelly of Woodburn, Melinda (Ed) Kintz of Sil- verton, Gretchen (Steve) Gaydos of Naselle, Wash- ington, Amy (Cam) Leonard Arnold Johnson Aug. 4, 1942 — Nov. 10, 2016 Leonard was born on Aug. 4, 1942, to Edwin and Marjorie (Walker) John- son in Silverton. Leonard was one of two children. He graduated from high school and later worked as a purchasing agent for heavy equipment. Leonard is proceeded in death by his parents. He is survived by his sis- ter Jacqualyn Kristansen of Mesa, Arizona. No services will be held. Arrangements are by Unger Funeral Chapel. Rose Lindgren Feb. 1, 1928 — Nov. 9, 2016 Rose Lindgren, 88, of Silverton, passed away on Nov. 9 after battling renal failure.

Steve Hochspeier re- minded us that a free tax services will once again be available through AARP Foundation’s Tax- Aide program at the Sil- verton Senior Center, 115 Westfield St. Steve, who is the Salem Tax-Aide dis- trict coordinator, said 3,600 Salem-area families benefited from the ser- vice last year to the tune of $3.5 million dollars in refunds. But many families were turned away. Why? Because of a shortage of volunteers. So Steve encourages local folks to evoke a mot- to: “Work your Mind, Warm your Heart” is AARP Foundation’s cur- rent Tax-Aide slogan. Help your neighbors and those who need tax-filing help the most: low to mod- erate income people, es- pecially those 60 and old- er. How can you help? The roles range widely and include interpreters, preparers, paperwork or- ganizers and the like. No previous experience is necessary; volunteers are trained and certified through the AARP Foun- dation in cooperation with the Internal Revenue Ser- vice and the Oregon De- partment of Revenue. “The bottom line is, we are looking for volunteers now to be trained for the upcoming tax season Feb- ruary through April,” Steve said. “Training oc- curs in January. No expe- rience needed. Without additional volunteers, we cannot adequately serve the communities. “We foresee a need of over 500 families each in Silverton and Stayton that could use our service. Be- cause of the lack of volun- teers we were only able to help 200 total for the two communities last year.” Think you can help? Contact Steve at SteveH.

A holiday classic, it’s the story of George Bai- ley, a man struggling with the decision to end his life who receives a visit from his guardian angel. Fea- tured as an old-fashioned radio play, the show will take you back in time to the atmosphere of a 1940’s recording studio. The actors are in cos- tume as though they are radio performers in the ‘40s, said Treasurer Mi- chael Wood. “It’s really sort of two plays. ‘It’s a Wonderful Life’ is operat- ing in the dialogue, phys- ical expression and acting and then there is this play that is the radio perform- ers doing their show.” The adaptation, writ- ten by Joe Landry, is based on the screenplay by Frances Goodrich, Al- bert Hackett, Frank Ca- pra and Jo Swerling. Performances take place 2 p.m. today, Nov. 27 and Dec. 4 and 7 p.m. Nov. 25-26 and Dec. 1-3. Cost is $10 or $8 for children, students and seniors.

Box 13009 Salem, OR 97309 Web site She was born in Kulm, North Dakota, on Feb. 1, 1928, to Michael and Wil- hemina Geinert, the youngest of five children. Rose was an emergen- cy room nurse in Minne- apolis, Minnesota, for sev- eral years, until marrying Paul Lindgren on July 23, 1960. They cared for a num- ber of foster children un- til adopting Leland Lind- gren in 1967. In addition to raising her son, Rose also provid- ed part-time in-home care to elderly and MS-afflict- ed patients. She was also a popular cake decorator for many years, creating wedding and celebration cakes. She was an avid artist and crafter, always paint- ing and creating imagina- tive items for family and friends. Survivors include her sister Lorraine Ligget of Erie, Pennsylvania; son Leland Lindgren of Silver- ton; grandchildren Eric Lindgren of Salem and Ar- ianna Koellmann of Sub- limity; and two great grandchildren.

Much Adrienne and her family decided to leave the hus- tle and bustle (not to men- tion traffic) of the Seattle area for a quieter life in Silverton, the picturesque Oregon town where her husband, Jerod Blom- gren, grew up. Jerod (Sil- verton High School class of ‘95), Adrienne and youngsters Jack, 13, and Georgia, 10, packed up and pushed on down south and a tad east to the bosom of the Cascade foothills. That move ignited Adrieene’s appreciation for the Willamette Val- ley’s pastoral appeal, which she kindled by ex- ploring and learning the history of Silverton’s backyard treasure, Silver Falls State Park. That passion turned profession in the fall of 2014 when Adrienne ac- cepted the role of event manager with the new concessionaire at Silver Falls Lodge & Conference Center where she would cultivate weddings and other special events at the park. Nicolle noted that dur- ing this time Adrienne also began working with Patrick Fetsch, the cen- ter’s general manager who would become her mentor. Within that role, she garnered ideas and approaches to improving center amenities and ser- vices, eventually suc- ceeding Patrick who re- tired this month. Given Silver Falls’ sur- roundings and applying a designer’s touch to a hos- pitality position, could Adrienne have been groomed any better or fit more perfectly into a role?
