Debra Lynne Kellogg Elizabeth A. ‘Liz’ Day Pendleton April 3, 1954-November 28, 2016 Hermiston April 24, 1937-Nov. 28, 2016 After a yearlong battle with ALS, Debra Buck- ley-Kellogg “Nana” arrived at her final resting place on November 28, 2016, surrounded by family and friends. She was born April 3, 1954, in Salt Lake City, Utah, to Robert and Dena Buckley. The family moved to Pilot Rock, Ore., where she attended and graduated from Pilot Rock High School. Debra was a standout athlete in every sport she played and still holds records at BMCC, where she Kellogg attended and grad- uated college. Debra worked for the state of Oregon for 32 years as a child protective services worker and continued to be involved in city league sports. She truly enjoyed watching her kids and grand- kids participate in sporting and school events. An avid pinochle player, she enjoyed playing with friends and family. Debra was a proud parent and grandparent who always put her family first and truly cared about the relationships she built in both her professional and personal life. She is survived by her longtime companion and friend Ben Tate, kids Brandon (Linsey) Kellogg and Niki (Monte) Ludington, and grandkids Liam “Buggy,” Lane and Tatum Ludington, all of Pendleton, and sisters Deanna (Ron) Burton, Barbara (Matt) M o n t g o m e r y, Sheila Buckley of Pendleton and Pilot Rock. She was preceded in death by her parents, Robert and Dena Buckley. Graveside services will be held Friday, Dec. 2nd at 1:00 p.m. at Olney Cemetery, with a celebration of life/reception at the Eagles at 3 p.m. The family would like to thank the many friends and family that helped over the last year in making sure Debra lived her final days in peace, comfort and happi- ness.

The retired educator was met with the deafening screams of students during a recent assembly at Armand Larive Middle School. Sherman announced the annual food drive competition pitting the Bullpups against the Sandstone Middle School Desert Hawks. Food collected from the effort will be distributed through the Hermiston Police Department Christmas Express. First coordinating the food drive in 1979, Sherman gets excited about students making a difference in the lives of others. “The biggest contribution of food to this program is the schools,” Sherman said. “Our kids are really great kids.” Ben DeCarlow, Armand Larive seventh/eighth grade science teacher, said the food drive raises student awareness of needs in the community. It also helps drive home an understanding, DeCarlow said, that even as middle schoolers, they can contribute and help make a difference. In addition, DeCarlow said it gets students pumped up in being victorious over Sandstone. “That’s one of the things they take pride in — that Armand has been the winner of the crosstown rivalry with Sandstone in recent years,” he said. Sherman, a sort of ambassador for the Christmas Express program, said the program started 47 years ago when Ken Hodge, then manager of the Hermiston Sears, had some extra toys and called Bob Shannon, who was the Hermiston police chief, asking if he knew of some needy Staff photo by Tammy Malgesini families they could be distributed to. “It had humble beginnings,” Sherman said. Now, 500 families benefit from the program. Many individuals and groups, Sherman said, help in providing a bright spot during the holiday season. “This is definitely Hermiston’s finest hour,” he said. Top collectors will earn the privilege of attending a special Hermiston Rotary Club luncheon with their principal and sit at the table of honor with Mayor Dave Drotzmann. The meeting also features a “fleecing,” Sherman said. Rotarians will- ingly open their wallets to provide seed money for next year’s Christmas Express. During the assembly, Armand Larive principal Stacie Roberts encouraged students to talk to their families about making a food donation. “We’re not asking you to strip your pantry,” she said. Meanwhile, don’t be surprised if an exuberant youth shows up at your door asking if you’d like to donate food for the effort — remember, there is a contest going on. The competition continues through Dec. 9. Recipients of Christmas Express don’t sign themselves up. Names can be suggested through social service agencies, civic groups, churches or even neighbors, Sherman said. They must be submitted by Friday.

Terry Cummings, lead chaplain with the Hermiston fire and police departments, at 541-567-5519 or leave a message for Sherman at Umatilla Fire District No. 1, 320 S.
