2B Wednesday, January 11, 2017 Appeal Tribune OBITUARIES Cecilia (Cel) Katherine Schiedler (Gubbels) Nov. 2, 1929 — Dec. 30, 2016 Cel Gub- bels was born in Pittsville, Wisconsin, on Nov. 2, 1929. She lived there until the age of 16 with her parents and six siblings until the family relocated to Silverton. Cel married Charles A. Schiedler (Chas) on July 2, 1949, and they resided on the Schiedler Century farm near Scotts Mills for their entire marriage un- til he passed away in 1997. Cel loved the outdoors, in- cluding flowers, birds, tending crops and work- ing in the woods. She con- tinued to live on the farm as long as she was physi- cally able, for a total of 65 years. Cel and Chas had eight children, 28 grand- children and 21 great- grandchildren. Cel lov- ingly hand-stitched at least one quilt for each of her children and grand- children over the years. Cel enjoyed cheering for her children’s and grandchildren’s sports teams. She was an avid Portland Trail Blazer fan as well. For her own sport, Cel had fun experiencing the excitement and friendships formed while bowling on as many as three weekly leagues at a time. Because of her ap- preciation for music, she encouraged each child to learn to play a musical in- strument. She loved to dance (which is how she met Chas), and remi- nisced about what fun her family had, singing songs around their player piano as she was growing up. Cel was an active member of the Holy Rosary Catho- lic Church and Scotts Mills Grange. Rosary, Mass and a gravesite service were held Jan. 6 at Holy Rosary PUBLIC NOTICE Catholic Church, with a reception following at the Grange. Anyone wishing to send flowers should ad- dress them to Unger Fu- neral Chapel in Silverton. Donations in lieu of flow- ers can be made to the Scotts Mills Grange or Historical Society. Cel is survived by sib- lings Gertrude Borscho- wa, Alice McHugh and Frank Gubbels; and chil- dren Catherine Schiedler, Jean Schiedler-Brown, Patricia Schiedler, Joanne Schiedler, Charles Schie- dler, Robert Schiedler, William Schiedler, Veron- ica Ervin and their fam- ilies. The last several months were physically challenging for Cel, so we are glad that her struggle finally ended on Dec. 30, 2016. With her deep faith, we believe that she is now at peace where, as she would say, she gets to “meet her maker.” James “Jim” Harold Leiper beaches with family, trav- eling and making wooden trains for kids. Jim belonged to the lo- cal Korean War Veterans Association #84 and talked to many schools regarding the Korean War and the Navy.

ANGEL – This month, for the last time, residents will pay their water bills under the two- month “balloon payment” system. Starting with the Feb. 15 bill, residents will pay their base rate, plus water usage every month in- stead of paying for water usage two months at a Douglas James Rich June 4, 1947 — Jan. 3, 2017 Douglas James Rich was born on June 4, 1947, in Silverton to Melvin and Floriene Rich. He was raised on a farm near Woodburn and attended Woodburn Foursquare Church. It was there that he accepted the Lord. Douglas graduated from Woodburn High School in 1965. After grad- uation, he served in the U.S. Air Force. He attend- ed L.I.F.E Bible College, where he met his wife of 44 years, Sherry. He grad- uated in 1975 with a bache- time. “This will help to level the bills and eliminate the ‘balloon’ on alternating bills as well as allow fast- er detection and repair of leaks,” said City Manager Amber Mathiesen. Until now, monthly bills alternated between smaller bills, charging only the base rate, and larger bills, charging the base rate plus two months of water usage. The old system operated this way, primarily, to allow city staff to read meters every other month instead of ev- ery month. “It takes two or two- and-a-half days for a cou- ple of staff members to read all the meters,” Mathiesen said. “It does divert our energies, but it’s a greater benefit to residents if they have a more equalized bill.” Sometimes the differ- ence between base-rate water bills and base-rate- plus-usage bills wasn’t large, but, especially dur- ing the summer months, it could be “enormous,” Mathiesen said. For cus- tomers on fixed incomes – or those who would’ve ad- justed their usage if they felt the cost sooner – the shift to every-month us- age payments will be helpful, she said. Oregon a top moving destination LAUREN E HERNANDEZ STATESMAN JOURNAL Oregon is one of the top moving destinations in the United States, accord- ing to recent migration studies. Oregon had the second- highest percentage of in- bound moves, with 957 shipments moving into the state and 590 moving out of the state, according to Atlas Van Lines, a household goods mover agency. The agency released data collected based on national migration pat- terns in and out of states from January 1, 2016 through December 15, 2016. A second moving com- pany — United Van Lines — also had Oregon as the second-most popular in- bound destination in 2016, trailing only South Dako- ta. Why Oregon? Just over 52 percent of people moving to Oregon stated one of the primary reasons for moving was for employment, accord- ing to the United Movers Study. Patrick O’Connor, a re- gional economist with the Oregon Employment De- partment, said Oregon has consistently been a state with strong in-mi- gration. “It wouldn’t surprise me that when we do bet- ter, even more people would take the leap to move to Oregon,” O’Con- nor said, referring to Ore- gon’s economic growth. Oregon’s annual job growth rate surged to a high in 2015, when 60,400 jobs were added during a 12-month period. The last time the state experi- enced a gain of that mag- nitude was in 1997. In 2016, Oregon report- ed the second-largest job growth gain in the nation at 3.3 percent, just behind Washington state’s 3.5 percent gain, according to data released by the La- bor Department. Gail Krumenauer, sen- ior economic analyst with the Oregon Employment Department, said Oregon has usually been a major in-migration state, with the exception of the early 1980s. More on Oregon and Salem: Krumenauer said Ore- gon has outpaced the United States average an- nual growth rate for the past four years. “But when job opportu- nities are plentiful, then that fuels the already un- derlying trend to an even greater degree,” Krume- nauer said. Over the past two dec- ades, Oregon has had an average net migration of 27,900 people per year, ac- cording to research con- ducted by Portland State University’s Population Research Center. Roughly 65 percent of Oregon’s population gain from 2010 to 2015 was from migration from oth- er states, specifically 120,000 individuals. O’Connor said while it did take Salem a little longer to bounce back from the Great Recession compared to Portland, it has gained traction over the past few years and made up for lost time with growing job opportuni- ties. Price for Eugene Field School drops CHRISTENA BROOKS SPECIAL TO THE APPEAL TRIBUNE SILVERTON – The ask- ing price for the shuttered Eugene Field School cam- pus has dropped from $1.45 to $1.1. Still there’s been no action on the property since Christ- mas, said Silver Falls School District Supt. An- dy Bellando. “We have continued in- terest but no current of- fers,” he said. The school, located at 410 Water Street, perma- nently closed last sum- mer. The 3.46-acre prop- erty includes the 35,000- square-foot school build- ing, the land on which it sits, and three tax lots across A Street to the north. Sperry Van Ness Commercial Advisors has the listing. City manager assistant hired by Amity CHRISTENA BROOKS SPECIAL TO THE APPEAL TRIBUNE MT. ANGEL – Assis- tant to the City Manager Justin Hogue has been hired to be Amity’s new city manager. The small town located south of McMinnville in Yamhill County is finaliz- ing its contract with Hogue this month. He’ll likely finish his work in Mt. Angel this week. Instead of filling Hogue’s position, which called for a wide variety of work including city- manager-level tasks, the City of Mt. Angel searched for a pair of new employees – an assistant city manager and an ad- ministrative analyst. Tony Reed of Beaver- ton was hired Dec. 27 to take the analyst job. He was among eight appli- cants and four finalists. His background includes a variety of work experi- ence including working for the Provo, Utah City Council on a landlord/ten- ant relations project, as well serving as a project manager for an environ- mental impact. The application proc- ess for the assistant city manager job closed Jan. 9.
