On February 28, 1990 Sharlet lost a long battle with cancer, and Ron became a widower. Shortly after Ron married Beverly Jones in McMinnville, Oregon on November 16, 1990. He had found love and was living with a smile on his face once again. Bev brought three adult children into the family: Belinda, Sandy and Wally. Bev and Ron loved going on car trips traveling the Oregon Coast, Central Oregon, Washington and Reno, Nevada. They just loved spending time together. Until retirement, Ron worked in the lumber industry loving every aspect of it. Because he had to always stay busy, he could often be found in his wood shop making things for the people he loved most, his family. Ron also loved car shows, driving the back roads and still on occasion could be found in the woods hunting or target shooting. Bev preceded him in death in March of 2014. Ron is survived by his children Mike (Kathi) Fetch of Vernonia, Oregon; Mary (Greg) Tibbot of Salem, Oregon; Julia Porter of Salem, Oregon; Jennifer Porter Cobert of Sutherlin, Oregon; and many grandchildren and great grandchildren.

Things to Ponder: Did He Really Mean It? By Grant Williams When Jesus spoke it was pow- erful. His sermons lifted people’s spir- its. His parables made even the most learned think, and often left them dumb- founded. The “Sermon on the Mount” was certainly one of His most eloquent and poignant sermons. Part of the “Sermon on the Mount,” found in Matthew 5:3-12 pro- claims, “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted. Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the earth. Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled. Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy. Blessed are the pure in heart, for they will see God. Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called the sons of God. Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me. Re- joice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.” This part of Jesus’ sermon re- minds me how important it was to Him to emphasize the things that will bring a believer closer to God and give them peace. Jesus is speaking directly to the heart of anyone who wants to leave the old way of living behind and adopt SolarWorld is hosting a Career Fair The Black Iron Grill & Pub has an opening for a line cook.

Did you notice that Jesus didn’t preach a shopping list of “thou shalt nots?” He gave us a valuable list of positive attitudes and behaviors that will revolutionize anyone’s life who will listen. The human heart longs for the things Jesus is talking about. He is making it clear, if you want to be blessed (happy in God’s way) you will not only try to do these things, you will make them your life goals. It is important to make a dis- tinction between self-righteousness and Godliness. Self-righteousness is derived in a person’s own mind when they live up to their own legalistic stan- dards. Godliness is the result of living by His standards and obeying His com- mands. The people who are truly con- cerned about living as God would have us live are more concerned about what He thinks than our opinion of ourselves or what others think. Often people confuse their own interpretation of the Scripture for God’s will for everyone else but themselves. Let me offer a word of caution. Many times when we condemn the actions of others we fail to see our own short com- ings in the list we found their problem. Later in the “Sermon on the Mount” Je- sus said in Matthew 5:20, “For I tell you that unless your righteousness surpasses that of the Pharisees and the teachers of the law, you will certainly not enter the kingdom of heaven.” Jesus is offering life! Will you embrace it? AUCTION NOTICE at Storage, Too 58605 Nehalem Hwy S Vernonia 503-429-7867 G9-10x20 M. Clough E9-5x10 B.
