Irrigon
June 26, 1936-December 20, 2016
Daniel Creamer was born
in Ogden, Utah, June 26,
1936, to Arthur and Lillian
Creamer. The family moved
to Irrigon, Oregon,
when he was 10
years old and he
attended
Irrigon
schools until he
graduated in 1954.
Dan
learned
to run tug boats
while still in school
and worked on
several ferryboats.
He worked on the
Paterson
Ferry,
Richland
Ferry,
Maryhill Ferry and
Vernita Ferry.
During
his
senior year, Dan Creamer
was working on
the Paterson Ferry
and dating his future wife of
62 years, Rita Jean Reeves.
In 1958, he joined the Navy
and went through “Boot
Camp” and was the Honor
Man of his unit. His Navy
experience was short lived
with an honorable discharge
due to osteoarthritis in his
knees. He returned home to
run ferries and line boats for
Tidewater and Inland Navi-
gation. During this time, he
and Rita Jean started raising
their three children.
For a short while he
worked for the Union Pacific
Railroad, but again returned
to the tug boats and was
eventually sent to Stockton,
Calif., on a huge sand bar
project to rebuild a portion of
Interstate Highway I-5. Dan
was also employed at the
Army Depot on the train. In
1974 he was injured in a train/
truck accident. The injury
received kept him from his
normal type of employment,
and then he began a different
type of life.
He was on the Morrow
County Planning Commis-
sion, Morrow County Budget
Committee, he was a Port
of Morrow commissioner
(1989-2005) and president
Actress Debbie Reynolds dies at 84
By LYNN ELBER
AP Television Writer
LOS ANGELES —
Actress Debbie Reynolds,
the star of the 1952 classic
movie “Singin’ in the Rain”
has died one day after
the death of her daughter,
actress-writer Carrie Fisher.
Reynolds was 84.
Her son, Todd Fisher, said
Reynolds died Wednesday.
“She’s now with Carrie
and we’re all heartbroken,”
Fisher said from Cedars-
Sinai
Medical
Center,
where his mother was
taken by ambulance earlier
Wednesday.
He said the stress of his
sister’s death on Tuesday
“was too much” for Reyn-
olds. Carrie Fisher, who was
60, had been hospitalized
since Friday.
“She said, ‘I want to be
with Carrie,”’ her son said.
“And then she was gone.”
Reynolds enjoyed the
very heights of show busi-
ness success and endured the
depths of personal tragedy
and betrayal. She lost one
husband to Elizabeth Taylor
and two other husbands
plundered her for millions.
Fisher, who found lasting
fame as Princess Leia in
“Star Wars” and struggled
for much of her life with
drug addiction and mental
health problems, died after
falling ill on a plane and
being hospitalized.
Reynolds was a superstar
early in life. After two minor
roles at Warner Bros. and
three supporting roles at
MGM, studio boss Louis B.
Mayer cast her in “Singin’
in the Rain,” despite Kelly’s
objections. She was 19 with
little dance experience, and
she would be appearing with
two of the screen’s greatest
dancers, Donald O’Connor
and Kelly, who also co-di-
rected.
“Gene Kelly was hard
on me, but I think he had
to be,” Reynolds, who
more than held her own in
the movie, said in a 1999
Associated Press interview.
“I had to learn everything in
three to six months. Donald
O’Connor had been dancing
since he was three months
old, Gene Kelly since he was
2 years old. ... I think Gene

Rain” and mother of Carrie Fisher, died Wednesday,

knew I had to be challenged.”
“The Unsinkable Molly
Brown” was based on the life
of a Colorado woman who
rose from poverty to riches
and triumphed over tragedy,
including the sinking of the
Titanic
The 1964 Meredith
Willson musical, with
Molly’s defiant song “I
Ain’t Down Yet,” brought
Reynolds her only Academy
Award nomination. She also
received a Tony nomination
in 1973 when she starred
on Broadway in the revival
of “Irene,” in which her
daughter also appeared.
After her transition from
starlet to star, Reynolds
became immensely popular
with teenage girls and even
more so when in 1955 she
married Eddie Fisher, the
pop singer whose fans were
equally devoted.
The couple made a movie
together, “Bundle of Joy,”
which seemed to mirror the
1956 birth of Carrie. The
Fishers also had a son, Todd,
named for Eddie’s close
friend and Taylor’s husband,
showman Mike Todd.
During this period,
Reynolds had a No. 1 hit on
the pop charts in 1957 with
“Tammy,” the Oscar-nom-
inated song from her film
“Tammy and the Bachelor.”
But the Cinderella story
ended after Mike Todd died
in a 1958 airplane crash.
Fisher consoled the widow
and soon announced he was
leaving his wife and two
children to marry Taylor.
The celebrity world
seemed to lose its mind.
Taylor was assailed as a
husband stealer, Fisher as
a deserter of his family.
Reynolds won sympathy
as the innocent victim,
a role emphasized when
she appeared before news
cameras with diaper pins on
her blouse. A cover headline
in Photoplay magazine in
late 1958 blared: “Smiling
through her tears, Debbie
says: I’m still very much in
love with Eddie.”
Fisher’s singing career
never recovered, but Taylor,
who left him for Richard
Burton in 1962, remained a
top star. And Reynolds’ film
career flourished. She starred
with Glenn Ford in “The
Gazebo,” Tony Curtis in
“The Rat Race,” Fred Astaire
in “The Pleasure of His
Company,” Andy Griffith in
“The Second Time Around,”
with the all-star cast in “How
the West Was Won” and
Ricardo Montalban in “The
Singing Nun.”
for 16 years. He was involved
with Pacific Northwest
Waterways Association. He
was also on Oregon Public
Ports Association
and a board member
for Morrow County
Small
Business
Loans
(1994-
present). He served
as the 2015 grand
marshal for the
Irrigon Watermelon
Festival.
Dan had a real
appreciation
for
firearms, not so
much for the new
ones, but for the
older
traditional
kind. For years he
had a cabin in Dale,
Oregon, where he
enjoyed spending
time with family and friends.
Dan is survived by wife
Rita Jean; son Daniel; daugh-
ters Dana Shook (Lynn)
and Danita Clary (Josh);
granddaughters
Danielle
(Steve McNutt), Christine
(Forrest Lowell) and Caitlyn
Clary; grandsons Joseph
Creamer, Cody Sherman
(Brittney) and Cameron
Clary; great-granddaughters
Camryn Lowell, Addysen
Sherman
and
Victoria
McNutt;
great-grandson
Ty McNutt; and numerous
nieces and nephews.
A graveside service will
be held on Wednesday,
January 4, 2017, at 11:00
a.m. at Desert Lawn Memo-
rial Cemetery in Irrigon.
A luncheon will follow
at Stokes Landing Senior
Center in Irrigon.
