P UMPKIN PICKING C ORRECTION P RAIRIE C ITY In a story last week about Prairie City City Council, it was incorrectly stated Councilwoman Carole Garrison voted on a proposal for a cellphone tower. Garrison abstained from voting on the issue. In the same article, Public Works Director Chris Camarena was paraphrased as stating the city water pumps were on “borrowed time” when he was actually referring to the city sewer pumps. The Eagle regrets the errors.

His death was following a courageous 10 month battle with esophagus cancer. Butch was born in Prairie City, Oregon to Hank and Naomi Goslin on June 10th of 1954. He attended school in Grant County and graduated from Prairie City high school in 1973. Over his life he had many jobs including working for the forest service and many years of doing construction with his longtime friend Shannon Voigt. He was also the second-generation owner of his father’s business “Hanks Sanitation”. However, work was not what life was about for Butch, in fact he often referred to it as a “four letter word”. He had lots of things he truly enjoyed doing like hunting, fishing, reloading, traveling, and spending time with his friends and family to name a few. To him life was about living to the fullest no matter the cost. He put his heart and soul into everything that he did and left a piece with every person that he met. Anyone that knew Butch knows what an impact he had on those around him. He was known for having a heart of gold and of course a way with the ladies, who he was never seen without. serve you! He was proceeded in death by his parents Hank and Naomi Goslin, grandparents, and a few good ol’ boys along the way. He is survived by his daughter Lacy Goslin of Pocatello, Idaho, significant other Chelsey McDaniel of Prairie City, Oregon, sister Lynette (Jim) Sullens and their children Tiffany, Jeremy and Brady of Prairie City, Oregon, extended family Chuck and Marti Boatman, Larry and Nanci Norris, Talon and Taron Case of Burns, Oregon, and also by his lifelong friend and brother Shannon Voigt and the Voigt family of Prairie City, Oregon. A memorial “poker party” is scheduled in his honor on November 4th in Prairie City, Oregon. It will be held where he was known for spending his time, the shop, at 642 N. Johnson St, Prairie City, Oregon. There will be a potluck dinner beginning at 4:00 pm so please bring a dish to share. We will be playing cards and sharing stories around 6:00 PM and will end the night Butch Goslin style.
