SIUSLAW NEWS | SATURDAY, JUNE 15, 2019 | 3A Community News Learn the fundamentals of a living trust June 18 What happens to some- one’s estate after they die? While some leave the ques- tion to probate courts, re- tirement specialist and local resident Ralph Ray advocates a “living trust” instead, and will speak on the legal prac- tice in the Siuslaw Library’s Bromley Room on Tuesday, June 18. A living trust is a legal device that can be used to manage a person’s property during their lifetime and to distribute their property after their death. “If you think a will pro- Mural makes progress tects you and your loved ones upon death, you may or may not be correct,” Ray said. “A will is only effective after you die. ... A living trust estab- lishes you as the engineer of your financial destiny now, before you pass away. A liv- ing trust gives you power and control over all of your assets now and after death. This le- gal document offers privacy in estate disbursement which the government cannot stand against.” The free, 40-minute pre- sentation will begin at 11:30 a.m., and again at 3:30 p.m. LYNNETTE WIKSTROM Broker (541) 997-7777 EXT 118 OFFICE (800) 999-5343 TOLL FREE (541) 997-7159 FAX (541) 999-0786 CELL lynnette@cbcoast.com COAST REAL ESTATE Each Offi ce is Independently Owned and Operated COAST REAL ESTATE 100 HIGHWAY 101 PO BOX C FLORENCE, OR 97439 PHOTOS BY MARK BRENNAN/SIUSLAW NEWS T he “Stitching Time, Weaving Cultures” mural at the corner of Highway 126 and Quince Street is moving right along, thanks to nearly 200 community members and the work of artists Angelina Marino and Joel Heidel of Marino-Heidel Studios, based in Portland.

Her shows span tradition- al country, rockin’ original country, and gospel. Clawson has hit number one on the charts with the duet “Why Wasn’t It Me?” with Frizzell, and as a solo act with, “Cowboy Up.” Her most recent singles in- clude “She Loved” and “Still Breathing.” She was instru- mental in establishing the Bi-Mart Willamette Country Music Festival, and the Cape Blanco, Mountain Home, and Country Crossings Mu- sic Festivals with co-host Pam Tillis.
