Around About
By Juntine Weatherford
About this time of each year, during this month and
particularly as November comes toward Its end, we sort of
rush to count the blessings that we may not think about too
often during most of our busy days.
Early this month at the November meeting of the Heppner
Garden Club, members were asked to respond to the
secretary's rollcall by declaring "something I feel thankful
about." One well-known member declared he was very
thankful he had reached the age when he is qualified for
Medicare. The most oft repeated responses were "for my
family, for a home, for good health and for the community
and the country In which we are living." The last of these
thoughts got me thinking of many blessings we who live in
Morrow County share.
Ours is a sharing and caring community. In Heppner, the
area I know best, its citizens have cared enough to provide
good streets, a water system, many churches with pastors,
priesU and congregations past and present to continue to
Inspire sharing and caring, schools from kindergarten Into
college-level classes with capable teachers and staffs, a good
hospital and medical system workers, fire protection,
policing, a library and museum, public parks, cable TV, a
neighborhood center which Is very helpful to folks of any age
who are needing material aid and comfort, a mental health
office where helpful psychological counseling is available, a
fine group of lodges and other worthwhile organizations
which do many helpful things for many people, a senior
citizen program of meals and socializing directed toward
those citizens who have given so much during their more
active, working years, an electric power cooperative, even
the necessary legal and tax-management agencies and, very
nportantly, a fine collection and variety of dedicated and
tTH. "ty merchants and service persons who really want to
serve everyone.
Do you know that some of Heppner's fifth graders are
going weekly to the Nursing Home where they have adopted
grandparents? Both these youngsters and the oldsters are
gaining much in knowledge and enjoyment from this school
and hospital endorsed program for which all who participate
In are very thankful.
Almost everything good depends on individuals, parti
cularly on persons who must appreciate themselves and their
God-given powers and are thus able to feel good about all
people and are willing to share with neighbors next door and
further out In their communities. We believe no one can live
completely alone, and we recognize that each person has
some strength, some talents and some different thoughts
arising from his or her own background. The strength and
pooled talents can accomplish tremendous results.
Historically, doing good was first of all, up to individuals
who felt responsible for their own extended families; then as
churches developed they inspired folks to join in upraising
their communities. Although individuals and churches are
still great providers of care and comfort, modern, very
mobile Americans have come to depend on governmental
agencies, large and smaller, for the provision of much
assistance. Thus It behooves all persons of voting age to
register, to vote regularly, thoughtfully and most carefully
for those public servants who are given the power to
determine for what social and other services the taxpayer's
widely-distributed dollars are being used.
Morrow County is blessed with many fine volunteer
workers who contribute much time and energy toward
community functioning. Some of these are busy now
preparing to make Christmas 1981 more pleasing for adults
and children who are faced with a rather bleak holiday
because of various misfortunes. Many women working
through the Neighborhood Center, under the faithful
leadership of Pat Brindle, have been seeing that contributed
dolls and other toys are put in excellent condition for
Christmas boxes and along with the churches of the area, the
Juvenile Advisory Council, other organizations and some
unaffiliated volunteers will see that the boxes are assembled
and distributed. Surely Christmas will find many thankful
families. Volunteers regularly assert at the Senior Mealsite.
There are some individual citizens, particularly Irene
Anhorn, who volunteers to go at least once each week to visit
the residents in the Nursing Home and to make friendly calls
on hospitalized folks. Irene also joins other volunteers
helping at the city library and at the county museum and at
the Neighborhood Center.
This is risky business, mentioning names - and any writer
is very likely to omit mentioning several folks who deserve
recognition. However, as I think of a few of the many
individuals for whom we must all give thanks (not listing
them in any particular order and not having nearly the space
to innumerate their many and generous gifts) these names
come quickly into mind: Amanda Duvall, the Orville
Cutaforth Family, Oscar Peterson, Lois Winchester, Ida
Farra, Hazel Humlett, Rachel Harnett, Ola Mae Groshens,
Virginia Rosewall, Bob and Theta Lowe, Claude and Happy
Graham, the Hager Family, Glen and Joyce Ward, and a
rather newcomer, Ron McDonald.
There have been and are many excellent teachers and
preachers who have and do contribute so much to community
improvement. There have been and are many superior
parents and superior children in the homes of our
community. Each reader can fill in the names of several
persons who have made his or her life in Morrow County
more pleasant.
So, during this week, when we are being thankful for our
good earth, for bountiful harvests, for sunshine and for rain,
let us especially focus on the great human beings, our
neighbors, to whom we all owe many thanks. May God bless
them all!
