A tribute to Henry
By DOROTHY KREBS
Henry Krebs was a sheep
man. Sheep were his occupa
tion, hobby, concern, and love.
The Bible, in the book of
John, describes a good sheep
man as one who is willing to
lay down his life for his sheep.
Few are called upon to go to
that extreme, but certainly
everyone who calls himself a
sheepman must be willing to
make sacrifices.
Being a sheepman meant
that Henry Krebs could not be
at his wife's side when their
daughter was born. It meant
not ever being able to see his
son play in a football game. It
meant being absent when his
children graduated from both
grade and high school. There
were many other things he
had to give up because the
sheep demanded his presence.
His family was taught trial the
welfare of the sheep had to
come first on many occasions.
During his long illness,
Henry never lost interest in
the sheep. He kept close track
of everything that concerned
the sheep operation. As his
body weakened, it became a
source of amazement to his
family how the mention of the
sheep would bring a response
from him. Two weeks ago.
when his son told him he was
going to bring the sheep from
Montana to Oregon, Henry's
hold on life was but a
heartbeat. The sheep arrived
on Tuesday and he was told
the sheep were on the range on
Wednesday. His heart grew
