This week, I did a “word on the
street” feature. Most of the people
I spoke to said they were happy but
concerned about us “celebrating” Bin
Laden’s killing.
Each of us, individually, must ask
ourselves if we feel the celebration was
appropriate. There is no right or wrong
answer, but we should be okay with
whatever it is. As for myself, I don’t
feel good about being happy, yet I am,
I think.
Thanks for picking up this week’s
paper, Enjoy!

happy with the events of September

them. Is that what America is about? Is
this behavior how we want to be seen

torn on the issue.

Several candidates are running for Illinois
Valley Fire Protection District and Three Rivers
School District board positions in the upcoming
May 17 special election.
The Josephine County Voter’s Pamphlet
outlines the Valley candidates and their
credentials for positions 1, 4 and 5 on the Fire
Board and Zone 2 and 4 on the Three Rivers
School District board. Following information is
included in the pamphlet:
For the I.V. Fire District, Richard R.
Bouchard and Jerry Lamb are running for Fire
Board Position 4, a four-year term. Bouchard
works as delivery driver and salesperson at
Fields Home Center and has also worked at IV
Building Supply.
Lamb owns Lamb’s Body Shop and
reportedly served on the Volunteer Fire District
in Cave Junction in 1975, along with the CJ
police department reserve.
James Minervini will run unopposed for
Fire Board position 1, a two-year unexpired
term. Minervini is a chiropractic doctor and
currently serves on the IV Fire board.
For the four-year Position 5 term, Edwin
“Bob” Butler and Bill Waggoner are the two
candidates. Butler is a retired firefighter engineer

and volunteered with the IV Fire Department
shortly thereafter.
Three candidates are running for the Three

for the Zone 2 spot; Weaver has 30 years

We wish to extend a heartfelt thank you for
all who supported us during our recent times of
difficulty and loss. We appreciate the practical,
emotional and spiritual help with Cathy’s

the companies and individuals who provided
transportation, Highland House, doctors and
medical staff, Three Rivers Home Health Care,
Three Rivers Hospital, Lovejoy Hospice, The
Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, and
the many neighbors, friends and family members
lightened our burdens, comforted our hurts, and

our journey. May you be blessed for the blessings
you’ve given.
