6 October 7, 1997 SMOKE SIGNALS iiiyftiMjii tin (? Tribal member Mike Linton passes away William Michael "Mike" Linton, 44, of Brookings, died August 16. Mike was born in McMinnville on June 9, 1953 to Gordon "Tim" and Caroline Linton, of Brookings. He worked in the timber industry since the age of 18, and was employed at South Coast Ply wood Company at the time of his death. Mike is survived by his wife Chris of Brookings; daughter Dawn McMillian and son Eric, both of Cen tral Point; stepson Charles "Herk" Studervant and stepdaughter Tina Hines, both of Crescent City; and twelve grand children. Also surviving are his parents Gordon and Caroline of Brookings; grandmother Doris Voutrin of Barlow; brothers Les Linton of Lake Oswego and Greg Linton of Trinidad, California; sister Chris Parke of Brookings. Mike was a proud member of the Grand Ronde Tribe, an avid hunter, and he enjoyed competition darts. He also was a strong family man. He was a caring, outreaching person to not only his immediate family, but also of his extended family including aunts, uncles, nieces and nephews. Family memories of Mike include his love for the "babies" and children, and all the way to the oldest adult in the family. Some memories of Mike recognize him as a "great baby-sitter," and the "best friend" of sister, "r I .('' jrfiiiv- - mi,v,, 0 f N 1 - I V f " - iHm1, ; Chris. He loved good cooking, especially his mom's gravy. Growing up, he wasn't alone, as he had younger brothers. Since he was the eldest of the boys, he spent much time pulling them around in their wagon. This apparently was the beginning of his life of doing for others. He was always the first one to volunteer when it came to helping out, especially for those who were hurting or down on their luck. One of Mike's activities, along with his brothers and sister, was a two-week trip to visit his Grandma and Grandpa Voutrin. The depth of the meaning of his relation ships with family and friends is reflected in the fact that he kept every card that was given to him in a special drawer. These in cluded Christmas, Birthday, or any card re vealing special expression from another per son to him. Many people in Mike's commu nity thought of him as a son, and his friend ship was felt by many. 1 037 2 cups whole-wheat flour 2 cups white flour 4 level tablespoons baking powder 1 teaspoon salt 14 cup vegetable oil 1 cup warm water 1 .
