TURNING BACK THE PAGES
50 YEARS AGO

October 21, 1996
A relative newcomer to Grant County who has im-
mersed himself in resource industries and politics for the
past two years hopes to become the next state senator
from District 28.
Ted M. Ferrioli, 45, a Republican, is the executive direc-
tor of Malheur Timber Operations Inc., a consortium of

Tim Burns loves to walk the Leo Adler Memorial
Parkway, but he’s not so fond of some of the people
with whom he shares Baker City’s paved path along the
Powder River.
Actually it’s not the presence of people, per se, that
bothers Burns. Rather, it’s a couple of habits shared by a
minority of LAMP users. One of Burns’ pet peeves, as it
were, is the unleashed dog.
ONE YEAR AGO
from the Baker City Herald
October 22, 2020
Eight months after a bacterial illness was confi rmed to
be spreading through one of Baker County’s two herds of
bighorn sheep, animals in the other herd are also getting
sick and, in a few cases, dying.
The newest outbreak of pneumonia is affecting sheep in
the Burnt River Canyon herd.
That’s the smaller of the county’s two groups of big-
horns, consisting of about 85 sheep, said Brian Ratliff,
district wildlife biologist at the Oregon Department of Fish
and Wildlife’s (ODFW) Baker City offi ce.
The much larger Lookout Mountain herd, in eastern
Baker County, has about 400 bighorns. ODFW biologists
have been monitoring pneumonia in Lookout Mountain
sheep since February.
The Burnt River Canyon sheep range mainly in the
deep, steep and exceedingly rugged canyon between
Bridgeport and Durkee. The canyon is about 20 miles
southeast of Baker City.
Bighorns were extirpated from the area early in the
20th century, but ODFW reintroduced the animals in the
canyon in 1987, releasing nine ewes, four lambs, and two
rams that were caught from the Leslie Gulch herd along
Owyhee Reservoir in Malheur County.

Kay Francis Daniels, 83, formerly of
Baker City, died early
Tuesday morning, Oct.
12, 2021, at her home in
Weiser, Idaho, surround-
ed by her family.
A small private
service is being held for
family only. Thank you
Kay Daniels
for your prayers.
Kay was born on
June 25, 1938, in North Platte, Ne-
braska, the middle daughter of Howard
and Freda McClain. She had one older
sister, Elenor, and one younger sister,
Sonja. When she was three years old
the family moved to Electric City, Wash-
ington, where she spent her early child-
hood, then to Baker City at the begin-
ning of her high school years where she
continued to live for the next 50 years.
The summer before her senior year
she met Chuck Daniels, the love of her
life. After graduating from high school,
they were married on Aug. 18, 1956.
Over the next seven years they had fi ve
children, which kept her busy as a stay-
at-home mom and homemaker. Her
family was her life, sewing and cooking
for them as well as teaching these skills
to her children as they grew. She did
everything from baking to upholstery,
PTA, room mother, 4-H leader and Girl
Scouts. She always had a garden, she
canned it all at the end of the summer
in time to go hunting with her family
every fall.
When weekends were free, they
were spent enjoying the outdoors with
her family, fi shing, camping, boating,
snowmobiling, and mushroom hunt-
ing. She worked side by side with her
husband remodeling every house they
lived in. She instilled in her children a
good work ethic, strong values, and a
love of family.
When her youngest started school
she went to work for Baker School
District in food service. After just a few
years she took a full-time job at the
District 5J Administration Offi ce where
she worked in food service, transpor-
tation and the production room. She
excelled in her work, taking on more re-
sponsibility all the time, even learning
and succeeding at writing grants. She
ran the production room for the entire
district for a few years. At the time of
her retirement, she was supervisor of
the district’s Food Service and Trans-
portation departments.
After 26 years with the school
district, she was ready for a new
adventure, and she and Chuck began
spending their winters down south
near Lake Havasu, where they made
many friends. They both loved it there,
golfi ng, fi shing, and playing cards with
people from all over the country and
Canada. They traveled down every win-
ter for 17 years. They started taking all
the grandchildren camping during the
summer, passing on all the traditions
they taught their own children. These
are some of the best memories and
stories that get shared during family
get togethers. During this time in 2005,
they relocated to Weiser, Idaho. It did
not take them long to become involved
in the community, coffee at McDonald’s,
and golfi ng. She loved attending the
sports events of her grandchildren and
football games at Memorial Park.
Kay adored her husband Charles for
64 years, and their family was every-
thing to them. They had fi ve children,
14 grandchildren and 25 great-grand-
children, and there was nothing they
liked better than spending time with all
of them. In their later years they were
rarely seen apart. They loved to dance,
and you could often catch them danc-
ing to a tune, jitterbugging their way
around their kitchen or shop.
Her family included her husband,
Charles Daniels; her daughters, Diana
Cutsforth (James), Carey Hopkins
(Mike), Holly Palmer, and Charlene
Trevino (Rudy), and her son, Lance
Daniels; her grandchildren, Kaitlin Ya-
mamoto (Thomas), Amanda Cutsforth
Blatter (Kyle), Jillian Cutsforth, Dani-
elle Marvin (Brent), Robert “Bobby”
Hopkins (Dani), Hallie Hopkins,
Marcus Palmer, Olivia Palmer (Eric),
Erin Wheeler-McKenzie (Brad), Kyle
Wheeler (Olina), Ryan Wheeler (Alora),
Kali Oesterblad (Alex), Justyn Boyer
(Licia), Carlee Daniels; and 25 great-
grandchildren.
Kay was preceded in death by her
husband, Charles; her parents, How-
ard and Freda McClain; her sister,
Elenor; and her son-in-law, Charles
“Cork” Palmer.
Samuel Orr
Formerly of Haines, 1951-2021
Samuel F. Orr, 70, formerly of
Haines, died Sept. 21, 2021 in Port-
land, Oregon. A celebration of his life
will take place in the spring of 2022,
when it can be outdoors, as the family
does not want anyone
else to endure the
hardship of the CO-
VID virus. A memo-
rial heavy equipment
procession is planned
to follow with a recep-
tion for family and
friends at The Frontier Samuel Orr
in Haines.
Samuel F. Orr was born on May
28, 1951, in Lewellen, Nebraska, the
fi rst of six children born to Ted and
Virginia Orr. His younger spunky
years were spent on family ranches
in Colorado and Wyoming. Sam was
drafted during the Vietnam War and
was stationed in Alaska as part of a
construction battalion. There he met
and later married his wife, Kathy. The
new family started on Sam’s family
ranch in Colorado but later moved
to Haines.
Once settled in Haines, the fam-
ily raised cattle, hay, grass, and drove
farm and cattle truck. Eventually the
trucks transitioned into an excavation
business that focused on road and
infrastructure projects, mining and
reclamation, as well as many other
various areas. The business moved to
Roosevelt, Washington, in 2005 to as-
sist in mineral reclamation. It is there
that Sam settled and built a life with
his new companion, Alicia Profi tt.
Throughout his life, Sam loved to
be outdoors, working at his latest job
site, chatting with friends about busi-
ness opportunities, and telling stories
from yesterday over a shared drink.
Sam is known for those tall tales, his
quick laugh, and his hardworking and
ambitious nature.
Sam is survived by his mother,
Virginia Orr; his wife, Kathy; his three
children, Theodore (wife Laura), Tyson
(wife Sheila), and Kylie (husband
Scott); four grandsons and four grand-
daughters; siblings, and numerous
nieces, nephews and cousins.
Memorial contributions can be
made to your local FFA or 4-H chapter

Valley Funeral Home & Cremation
Services PO Box 543 Halfway, Oregon
