Page 4 Illinois Valley News, Cave Junction, OR Wednesday, July 21, 2004 Tony ‘Charlie Two-Shoes’ Betchik A memorial service for Anthony “Tony” Betchik, also known as “Charlie Two-Shoes,” will be held on Sunday, July 25 at noon at Laurel Cemetery. William G. ‘Bill’ Lowe After a long bout with cancer, former Selma resi- dent Bill Lowe died July 6, 2004 in the arms of his wife, Darlene, in Paradise, Calif. Mr. Lowe was born in Monterey Park, Calif. and grew up in Lomita. In 1955, he graduated from Narbonne High School. After graduation, Lowe worked for Pacific Bell for several years before join- ing the city of Los Angeles Fire Dept. in 1968. He re- tired 30 years later. He loved being a fireman, but also enjoyed retirement. In January 1968, Mr. Lowe married his wife, Darlene, in Las Vegas, Nev. and lived in Southern California during his time in the fire service. He and his wife left California to retire in Selma, Ore. in 1992. Liv- ing there for eight years, said his wife, they found many loving and close friendships that were and are enjoyed and treasured by them. Mr. Lowe was a mem- ber of the Grants Pass Elks Lodge and, for a short time, a member of the Deer Creek Cemetery Board. He and his wife were proud to be members of the Selma community, said Mrs. Lowe. Mr. Lowe is survived by his wife, Darlene, of Paradise, Calif.; three sons, Tony Lowe, of New York, N.Y., Barry Lowe, of Mis- sion Viejo, Calif., and Troy Lowe, of San Jose, Calif.; and nine grandchil- dren. St. Patrick of the Forest Catholic Church As we celebrate the 17th Sunday in Ordinary Time, we will hear Jesus teaching his disciples how to pray from Luke. The Lord’s Prayer is still recited by Christians. The Gospel continues with these words from Jesus: “Ask and you will re- ceive; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.” Prayer, talking to God in supplication or thanks- giving, is a powerful tool to carry through life. American Legion Auxiliary Glenn Morrison Unit 70 An executive meeting that was scheduled Thurs- day, July 22 has been changed. The meeting will be held on Thursday, July 29 at 2 p.m. at the legion hall. As I would not be a slave, so I would not be a master. This expresses my idea of democracy. Whatever differs from this, to the extent of the difference, is no democracy. - Abraham Lincoln - Jean and James Nix Nixes celebrate 50th wedding anniversary James and Jean Nix, of Kerby, were married 50 years as of July 20. James was born in Ar- kansas; Jean in Washing- ton state. High school sweethearts, they were married July 20, 1954 in Sequim, Wash. James served 10 years in the U.S. Air Force, and the Nixes owned their own business, traveling all over the country by motor home to adjust and repair shears, slitters, and brakes at air conditioning, sheet metal, and roofing companies. Now retired 10 years from that occupation, James still receives calls to do the work. Jean has done volun- teer work for the Illinois Valley Senior Center Thrift Store, and now works for the Seventh-day Adventist Church Dorcas food center in Cave Junc- tion. She also enjoys read- ing and crocheting. James is a yard man, and he enjoys working out- side. He plays guitar in his free time. The Nixes have five children; 13 grandchildren; and three great- grandchildren. Monday, July 12 *5:30 p.m., medical aid, 145 N. Caves Hwy. *9:13 p.m., brush fire, Eight Dollar Road/Hwy. 199.
