The Gospel Reading on
the Sixth Sunday of Easter
will be from John, and the
overriding theme, “Love.”
Jesus tells his disciples,
“This is my commandment:
love one another as I love
you. No one has greater love
than this, to lay down one’s
life for one’s friends ... go
and bear fruit that will re-
main, so that whatever you
ask the Father in my name
he may give you.”

College in 1963. She was a
beautician from 1963 to 2005,
and enjoyed work and made
many close friends.
“Most notable of Vicky
was her strong faith in our Lord
Jesus Christ and ability to help
others understand the impor-
tance of rightly dividing the
word of God,” her family said.
She enjoyed attending Grace
Fellowship Church and taught
youth Sunday School classes
for 30 years.
On Nov. 10, 1979, She
married Donovan N. King Jr.
She appreciated her family
home and many friends.
Besides her husband, Don,
survivors are a daughter Nick-
ola L. Johnson, of Grants Pass;
a son, Chad D. Johnson, of
Salem; a stepdaughter, Rhonda
Ziegler, of Grants Pass; a step-
son, Steven King, of Battle
Ground, Wash.; two sisters,
Heide Cummings, of Coos
Bay, and Marianne Peterson, of
Grants Pass; a brother, Werner
Funke, of Houston; and three
grandchildren. A sister, Lore,
plus her parents, preceded her
in death.
Arrangements were made
through Illinois Valley Funeral
Home.
Included were the two depu-
ties, plus Mayor Tony Paul-
son, Councilman Margaret
Miller, and City Recorder
Jim Polk.
Rarey opened the get-
together by outlining his
experiences in Community
Oriented Policing. And he
stressed repeatedly that
keeping a community safe
comes down to community
members taking a strong
role -- not taking the law in
their own hands -- but being
alert to strangers and suspi-
cious circumstances.
The officer also noted
time and again that commu-
nity members need to take
measures to protect their
homes and businesses. Efforts
could include burglar alarms,
light-motion detectors, good
locks and strong doors.
Criminals, he said, take
the path of least resistance.
“You need to harden your-
selves,” he said. He noted that
using available tools for safety
and security must occur be-
cause JCSO lacks sufficient
resources and cannot field a
large number of officers.
“For example,” he
stated, “there are nine city
officers on duty right now in
Grants Pass. The sheriff’s
office has two on duty for
the whole county.”
Noting the aspect of
community involvement,
Rarey said that he is “part of a
team responsible for the secu-
rity of the area.” He added
that, “The community is in
charge of its security, not me.
“I am a heavily armed
backup good at typing re-
ports,” Rarey stated. “I will
help you take matters into
the criminal justice system:
we all have a role.”
A newly trained reserve
officer might be used in the
city; he’s pushing for it, he
added. He also explained
that citizens can use deadly
force if they fear for their
lives, and when the other
person has an instrument
that could inflict life-
threatening injury.
Rarey said that he sees
the current efforts as an ex-
periment in innovation that
could become a model for
the entire county.
