Local police issue warning
about unmarked vehicles
50th ANNIVERSARY
Kay and Larry Bacon
Kay and Larry Bacon of
Florence celebrated their 50th
wedding anniversary with a
trip to Washington’s San Juan
islands, where they honey-
mooned 50 summers ago.
The trip included several
days of sailing among the
islands, followed by a week’s
sojourn in a cliffside house
overlooking the water on
Lopez Island, where the couple
spent their honeymoon.
The Bacons were married in
Pocatello, Idaho, on July 9,
1965, and moved from there to
Florence in 1970, when Larry
took a job as the coastal
reporter for The Register-
Guard. Previously he was the
city editor for the Idaho State
Journal in Pocatello.
The couple still resides in
the same house they moved
into when they arrived in
Florence.
Larry retired
from The Reg-
ister Guard in
2002.
He
also
served in the
U.S.
armed
f o r c e s
reserves. He
spent six years
of service in
the National
Guard and 20
years in the
Navy Reserve.
Kay, also re-
tired, worked 11 years as plan-
ning secretary for Dunes City,
and 13 years as manager of the
Florence office of Edward
Jones Investments.
Kay and Larry met in Idaho
Falls, Idaho, where she was a
school district secretary and he
was a cub re-
porter for the
Idaho
Falls
Post-Register.
Later, they
both moved to
Pocatello,
where
she
attended Idaho
State Univer-
sity and gradu-
ated in 1967.
Larry is a
1963 graduate
of the Univer-
sity of Wash-
ington.
He is the son of Allan and
Frances Bacon. Kay is the
daughter of Phyllis and
LaWayne Chapman.
Three Bacon children —
Allan, Adam and Willow —
grew up in Florence. Allan and
wife, Tatsanee, live in
Florence; Willow resides in
Portland; and Adam and wife,
Megan, live in Battle Ground,
Wash.
Larry and Kay have three
granddaughters.
The couple volunteers their
time with the Friends of
Florence organization, which
provides free transportation to
the Eugene-Springfield area on
weekdays for cancer patients to
receive radiation treatment.
Larry is a driver; Kay, a former
driver, now schedules drivers.
Larry led or participated in
13 50-mile hikes as a former
Boy Scout leader.
Kay is active in the Florence
Ward of the LDS church and
has volunteered with several
local organizations. She also
started a knitting group which
usually meets weekly in the
Bacon home.
Florence Police Department
(FPD) has received concerns
from local citizens about
unmarked vehicles attempting
to pull them over with red and
blue mounted flashing lights.
The latest report involved a tan
van with dash lights attempt-
ing to pull someone over.
FPD is not aware of any
local law enforcement agency
that uses an unmarked van.
If an unmarked vehicle
attempts to pull you over and
you do not feel safe, FPD Lt.
John Pitcher recommends
finding a populated place to
pull over or driving to the
police
station
at
900
Greenwood St. (off Ninth
Street) in Florence to pull over.
It is illegal to impersonate a
police officer.
If you think someone is
impersonating an officer,
report the suspicious activity
to Florence Police at 541-997-
3515.
