Prince was found dead at his home on Thursday in Minneapolis, according to his publicist. He was 57. Prince, hugely inYenWiYe, inÀuenWial musician, dead at 57 CHANHASSEN, Minn. (AP) — Prince, one of the most inventive and inÀu- ential musicians of modern times with hits including “Little Red Corvette,” “Let’s Go Crazy” and “When Doves Cry,” was found dead at his home on Thursday in suburban Minneapolis, according to his publicist. He was 57. His publicist, Yvette Noel-Schure, told The Associated Press that the superstar “died at his home this morning at Paisley Park.” The local sheriff said deputies found Prince unresponsive in an elevator late Thursday morning after being summoned to his home, but that ¿rst-re- sponders couldn’t revive him. No details about what may have caused his death have been released. Prince postponed a concert in Atlanta on April 7, after falling ill with the Àu, and he apologized to fans during a makeup concert last week. President Barack Obama, for whom Prince was a White House guest last year, said he and his wife “joined millions of fans from around the world” in mourning Prince’s sudden death. “Few artists have inÀuenced the sound and trajectory of popular music more distinctly, or touched quite so many people with their talent,” Obama said in a statement. “ ‘A strong spirit transcends rules,’ Prince once said — and nobody’s spirit was stronger, bolder, or more creative.” The dazzlingly talented and charismatic singer, songwriter, arranger and instrumentalist drew upon musicians ranging from James Brown to Jimi Hendrix to the Beatles, creating a gender- and genre-defying blend of rock, funk and soul. He broke through in the late 1970s with the hits “Why You Wanna Treat Me So Bad?” and “I Wanna Be Your Lover,” and soared over the following decade with such albums as “1999” and “Purple Rain.” The title song from “1999,” his funky and Àippant anthem about an oncoming nuclear holocaust, includes one of the most quoted refrains of popular culture: “Tonight I’m gonna party like it’s 1999.” The Minneapolis native, born Prince Rogers Nelson, stood just 5 feet, 2 inches — yet he made a powerful visual impact at the dawn of MTV. Prince was a Little Richard for the ‘80s, from his wispy moustache and tall pompadour to his colorful and suggestive out¿ts, the counterpart to the openly erotic lyrics that made him one of the most sexually daring artists of the era. But his greatest legacy was as a musician, summoning original and compelling sounds at will, whether playing guitar in a Àamboyant style that drew on Jimi Hendrix, switching his vocals from a nasally scream to an erotic falsetto, or turning out album after album of stunningly inno- vative material. Among his other notable releases: “Sign O’ the Times,” ‘’Graf¿ti Bridge” and “The Black Album.” Pilot Rock July 13, 1929-April 19, 2016 Verna L.

National Police Week is less than a month away, and Terry Cummings, chaplain for the Hermiston Police Department, is again coordinating a show of vehicle ribbons in support of local police of¿cers. “This is just a week for the community to say, ‘Thank you, we appreciate you’ to these men and women who put their lives on the line every day,” Cummings said. “The idea is for people to go around town to some of these businesses, pick up a ribbon and put it on a vehicle to show their support.” The ribbons are free and available at Ace Hardware, Banner Bank, the Chamber of Commerce of¿ce, city hall, the police department and Washington Trust Bank. Last year, 1,300 ribbons were distributed across the west end of Umatilla County, and Cummings said he hopes to break that record this year. The ribbons come from the “Concerns of Police Survivors” — or C.O.P.S. — organization. The ribbons were designed to tie around a radio antenna, but Cummings said the ribbons can be displayed anywhere on the vehicle — such as around rear-view mirrors or in a back window — to show support. National Police Week traces its origins to 1962, when President John F. Kennedy established May 15 as Peace Of¿cer’s Memorial Day. The week in which May 15 falls — beginning on a Sunday — is then National Police Week. Locally, a memorial event is scheduled at Til Taylor Park in Pendleton that week.
