Santa’s safe arrival, and a ‘Bundt cake’ dusting
By Mildred E. Lykens
■ Santa
arrived at the Lyle
Activity Center to a street
lined with expectant chil-
dren ready to see the Jolly
Old Man in the big red suit,
who braved the rain and re-
mained in his sleigh because
of social distancing.
The only way he was
allowed to connect with
the children was by micro-
phone. But be assured, he
took back to the North Pole
and the elves the list he
procured from that distance.
The love was still there, if not
the warmth of his hug that is
now deprived.
The Twin Bridges
Museum had its monthly
meeting with the board
members abiding to the
rules and regulations of
masks and distancing. It was
good to give congratulations
to Richard Keyes when he
happily displayed his photo
of he and his new bride in
their wedding attire ... a
mighty handsome couple for
sure. The wedding was held
in Twin Falls, Idaho, where
his bride, Elizabeth Leis,
abides. The couple shared
their school years here and
I understand even attended
one of the proms as a couple
some odd 66 years ago ...
We all wish these childhood
sweethearts the very best
and happiest years to come.
Merry Christmas to all
Christians and Happy
Hanukah to our Jewish
residents. I leave you all
with heartfelt wishes that
the Year 2021 will bring back
our personal freedoms, the
enjoyment of fellowship
with our family, friends and
neighbors and return us to
our contented lives.
One of my personal notes:
Are the days gone when
excitement-filled children
could sit on Santa’s lap and
tell him their most secret
wishes that could only be
told to him? Not even sit on
a chair close to him? This
period in time has hit all of
us pretty hard, but to allow
a most precious childhood
memory be jerked away
... it’s just beyond sad. The
whole COVID-19 issue is a
controversial item right now
and has pitted colleagues
pitted against each other,
but either way you stand I
hope you agree that it’s the
kids that are hurting the
most. No school, no parties,
no interaction with friends
and neighbors ... their whole
social structure has been ac-
costed to the point that one
can’t blame them for turning
to that little hand-held
machine where they can
connect with their peers. No
teacher or out-of-household
adults to lead by example,
tutor or advise them except
through the cold hard screen
via the internet.
On perhaps a more pos-
itive note, during a recent
shopping trip I looked up at
the highest of our surround-
ing mountains and saw a
scene what I describe as a
“powder sugar dusting on
a Bundt cake.” I thoroughly
enjoy the snow and its beau-
ty but wish it to remain in the
higher elevations so those
who enjoy the winter sports
can drive to it and leave us
who do not like driving in it,
safe. God made some of His

creations beautiful but very
dangerous if we refuse to
give them their due respect.
So, from a safe distance,
I gaze upon the hills and
think; Beauty and the Beast.

Eva Feller honored at her 102nd birthday
By Mary Pierce
■ Here
we are, nearly into
2021. I’ve heard so many
comments that 2020 close
out soon enough. It has been
a long, hard year, for sure.
We hope all who are travel-
ing over the holidays have
safe journeys and those who
are staying home to stay cozy
in your homes.
Pam Keithley and Kim
Thomas, the school cooks,
prepared and delivered a
delicious Christmas dinner
for staff and students on the
last day of school before the
Christmas break. When two
arrived at our house, the first
grader and fifth grader had
a hard time focusing on the
Christmas movie showing
on their school computers
because the wonderful

aroma was wafting through
the house. The littlest cowgirl
here, not quite 2 years old,
decided their dinner looked
much better than her own
lunch, so she shared some of
theirs. All the work the staff
put in to making that week
before break so much fun.
There were dress-up days for
Spirit Week and Christmas
stories on Wednesday night,
complete with cocoa and
popcorn delivered earlier
for all the students to enjoy
while they listened to the
stories from the comfort of
their homes.
Now the kids and teachers
are on their Christmas/
winter break and we hope
they all cram as much fun as
they can into that vacation.
I know the kids are hoping
for snow for playing and
snowmobile riding.
We would like to wish Eva
Feller a very happy birth-
day. Eva turned 102 years
old on Christmas Eve and
is a beloved treasure here
in Glenwood. She has lived
here in Glenwood all her
life except for a brief period
in Portland while attending
beauty school. Happy birth-
day, Eva.
We received news that for-
mer Glenwood resident Roy
Bolt recently passed away
at the age of 97. Roy lived
in Portland for much of his
adult life and is survived by
his three children and wife
Betty, sister Shirley Burril of
Glenwood, brother Jim, and
twin sisters Lily and Lillian.
He was preceded in death
by his parents, son Norman,
and sisters Mary Ladiges and
Helen Eaton. He was a child
of the Bolt and O’Neal pio-
neer families (Tye Bolt and
Lilivon O’Neal) who came
to the Glenwood valley from
Virginia. During the Korean
war, Roy served as a troop
truck driver in the Army. He
often visited in Glenwood on
Memorial Day weekends to
bring flowers to the ceme-
tery and catch up with family
and friends in Glenwood.
We at the Grange greeters ta-
ble there always enjoyed his
visits. Our condolences go
to his sister Shirley and her
family and his Ladiges and
Eaton nieces and nephews.
In a recent phone visit
with Shirley Burril, she asked
me to extend a sincere thank
you to everyone who calls
and stops by to visit her and
Skip and help when needed.
You all know who you are
and your kindness and care
are greatly appreciated.
Glenwood rodeo kids
Joslyn and Blaine Arnold
and Peyton Sanchey have
big reasons to celebrate.
They all competed in the
Central Washington Ropers
and Riders Association
(CWRRA) over the summer
and fall, with great success.
At the CWRRA awards ban-
quet last Saturday, Joslyn, a
ninth grader at Glenwood
High, was honored for
achieving first places in the
Open Goat Tying category
and Youth Breakaway rop-
ing. She also placed second
in Youth Goat Tying and
Novice Breakaway. Blaine,
in fifth grade at Glenwood
Elementary, placed first
in Calf Riding and third in
Peewee Goat Tying. Joslyn
and Blaine are the children
of Bo and Casey Arnold.
Peyton Sanchey, daughter
of Ryan and Jodi, placed
first in the Youth 2D Poles
and third in the 3D Barrels.
Peyton is in eighth grade
at Glenwood Middle
School. There were several
competitors in each class.
Congratulations to all three
ropers and riders. Way to
represent Glenwood.
Happy New Year,
everyone.
