Congressman Al Ullman rang the new bell at Saturday’s
dedication ceremony of Anthony Lakes’ ski lodge. The
bell is an original from the old Sumpter Railroad which
is dedicated to the founders of the area who snowshoed
eight miles up the mountain in the 1930s to prove it was
worthwhile to develop Anthony Lakes.

Gelling fuel, hungry cows, and tractors and trucks that

Is the new biodiesel fuel blend required for sale in

Rep. Cliff Bentz, R-Ontario, is working with local ranch-

answer that question.
ONE YEAR AGO
from the Baker City Herald
December 28, 2018
The Oregon Trail Interpretive Center near Baker City re-
mains closed due to the partial federal government shut-
down, and some other agencies’ offi ces are also closed.
The Interpretive Center, about fi ve miles east of Baker
City along Highway 86, is operated by the BLM, an agency
of the Interior Department.
That’s one of the nine federal departments affected by
the partial shutdown.
Another is the Agriculture Department, which includes
the U.S. Forest Service, one of the major federal employ-
ers in Baker County.
There are about 190 federal workers in Baker County,
according to the Oregon Employment Department.
The shutdown has a smaller effect on the Interpretive
Center than it would during the spring, summer or fall be-
cause the Center has been on its reduced winter schedule
since Dec. 1.
One of the items contained
food, some of which had been
eaten, and Duman said the
intended recipient didn’t
want what was left.
Police also recovered a pair
of shoes, but as of this morn-
ing they hadn’t determined
who was supposed to receive
that package.
Duman said police started
investigating after taking
multiple reports, over a few

their family.
Raymond graduated from La Grande
High School in 1957, and he joined the
U.S Army where he served from 1959 to
1964 as a Private First Class. Raymond
met his wife, Liliane, in 1965 while he
was working with her father in Rose-
burg and they were married later that
year on Aug. 14.
Raymond and Liliane moved to Baker
City in late 1977 where they were able
to establish a great life for their family.
Raymond worked for the Local 701 Op-
erating Engineers Union. He was a part
of many large projects and was proud
to say, “I built that.” He retired after 40
years of service in the union. During
his retirement he enjoyed staying busy
by volunteering with the Oregon State
Forest Service, maintaining his ranch
and traveling with his wife to visit his
children and grandchildren. Raymond’s
favorite past time was always getting a
good deal on things he set his mind to.
He is survived by his wife, Liliane
Green, and his six children, Ronda
McLaughlin (John) of La Grande,
Lesli Northup of Boise, Tina Carpen-
ter (Jasen) of Marysville California,
William Green (Liz) of Portland, Susan
Thistlewood (John) of Boise and Avery
Green (Trevee) of Portland; 18 grand-
children and 15 great-grandchildren;
and two sisters, Lois Smith and Bon-
ney Bryan.
Raymond was preceded in death by
his parents, Avery Nuell Green and
Edna Dolly Green; his sister, Doris
Allen; his granddaughter, Kimberly
Christensen; and his great-grandson,
Austin Lisk.
Raymond will be greatly missed
by all who knew him. For those who
would like to make a memorial dona-
tion in honor of Raymond the family

He recommends residents
try to ensure someone is
home when a package is
likely to be delivered, or have
it delivered to their workplace
if that’s possible.
Duman also encourages
residents to report any suspi-
cious activity at neighbors’
homes, and to get a license

of suspects.
