Berg passed peacefully a few days prior to her 98th birthday on Sept. 3, 2016 at her daughter’s home in Newberg, Oregon. Mrs. Berg was born Sept. 12, 1918, in Whit- ney, Nebraska, in a three-room house. She was the second of six children born to Lewis Guy and Delia Aleta (Mobley) Mershon. She attended school in Crawford, Nebraska, in a one-room school house, completing grades one through 12. Mrs. Berg was a career business woman. She began working as a legal secretary, then as a court reporter, then for the Flour, Feed and Cereal Employees Association, where she nego- tiated labor agreements. During that employ- ment she met Kenneth S. Berg, ofﬁ ce manager of Pillsbury Mills in Astoria. They married Feb. 5, 1949, in Astoria. Kenneth later became part owner and manager of Paciﬁ c Shrimp Inc. of Warrenton. After her marriage, she and Kenneth lived in Hammond. Mrs. Berg was employed by the Warrenton U.S. Bank, (where she was the ﬁ rst woman teller at that branch), then as secretary at Warrenton Grade School. In 1963, Ferne was hired as secretary to Eben Carruthers at E.H. Carruthers Co. in Warrenton. Upon the retire- ment of Mr. Carruthers, she was promoted to president of the company, and served in that capacity until her retirement in 1968. Ferne and Kenneth had three daughters: Kathleen, who died prematurely, Andrea and Maridel. Kenneth passed away March 4, 1995. Mrs. Berg was an avid reader. She enjoyed grammar and words. Because of her knowledge of language, she accepted the task of proof- reading for The Herald Magazine, and also for authors who wrote articles for her religious organization. This she did joyfully after her retirement, and on into her 90s, until her eye- sight became limited. LONG BEACH, Wash. — Bad news keeps get- ting worse when it comes to a quick end to the marine toxin bloom that has indeﬁ - nitely delayed start of razor clam season on the s outhwest Washington coast. Test results released Fri- day by the Oregon Depart- ment of Agriculture found the toxin domoic acid wide- spread in shellﬁ sh on the Oregon C oast. The state has closed the entire Oregon C oast to shellﬁ sh harvesting. This means the algal bloom responsible for pro- ducing the toxin is wide- spread and not a localized outbreak that might swiftly dissipate. The recreational harvest of bay clams and crab remains open on the Oregon Coast. According to the state, commercial shellﬁ sh prod- ucts remain safe for consum- ers because samples show no biotoxins.
