2A THE DAILY ASTORIAN • WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 7, 2016 ‘How do you feel about Walmart breaking ground in Warrenton?’ Rosanna Gildner, Knappa THE DAILY ASTORIAN // QUESTION OF THE WEEK OBITUARIES Marilyn Jean (Paulson) Halbrook Seaside Oct. 22, 1938 — Dec. 1, 2016 The warming center also loans out clean, presentable clothes for their guests to wear at job interviews and other appointments. In previous years, the center opened only during inclement weather, or when the temperature dropped below 40 degrees. Last winter, the center operated 66 nights and put up 98 people, according to cen- ter tallies. Peterson said the center needs more volunteers. For information, visit the warm- ing center’s Facebook page or email astoriawarmingcen- ter@gmail.com. Shower, laundry services available The Astoria Warming Center reopened in Novem- ber and will operate every night through March 15. The nonprofi t shelter, housed in the basement of the First United Method- ist Church on Franklin Ave- nue and 11th Street , is a place for homeless people to come in from the harsh winter weather, eat a warm meal, get some sleep and enjoy break- fast the next morning. It is open 8 p.m. through 7:30 a.m. The warming center offers limited shower and laundry service, in addition to new cots and sleeping pads. Lately, the center has been averaging 23 to 24 guests per night, according to Dean Peterson, a nonprofi t board member and volunteer. The capacity is 30. “Some people, they actu- ally use (the center) to sleep before they go to a job. They take showers before they go to a job,” Peterson said. “I mean, they’re homeless, but some of them are working.” FIVE-DAY FORECAST FOR ASTORIA TONIGHT THURSDAY FRIDAY Breezy with increasing cloudiness ALMANAC Milder with rain 49 39 Occasional rain Tillamook 30/46 Rain at times Full Salem 29/40 Newport 33/50 Dec 13 New Dec 20 Source: Jim Todd, OMSI TOMORROW'S TIDES Astoria / Port Docks Time 1:13 a.m. 2:28 p.m. Low 1.5 ft. 2.2 ft.

What the world didn’t know, had it cared, was that she had been dealt a game-of-life card so worthless, it hadn’t paid to play; yet to her credit, she had stayed “in” for the ones she loved. Also unknown: She had been a God-sent teacher of “mercy over wisdom.” Repatriated to God, Candi Ross of Arizona, died in Portland, Oregon, at 4 a.m. on Nov. 30, 2016, following a lifetime of heartbreak. Candi was the beautiful and beloved adopted daughter of Seaside resident Anna Ryan. She is survived also by a sister, her life-partner of 15 years, and three lovely young girls. In honor of Candi’s contribution to the education of many, my annual gift-giving to homeless shelter residents hereafter will be known as “Mercy over Wisdom by Candi Ross Christmas.” DEATH Dec. 7, 2016 WRIGHT, Mildred Grace, 96, of Seaside, died in Seaside.
