Letters To
A successful mealsite
To the editor:
I wish to personally extend
my thanks and appreciation to
all those wonderful, caring
people who have supported the
Heppner Senior Mealsite and
myself this past year.
The support of the seniors
and all volunteers has truly
made it a successful mealsite.
Although the job of cook car
ries a lot of responsibilities, it
is made easier by the helpful
ness and encouragement
given me by the seniors. The
many kitchen items and
monies donated have also
helped make the kitchen more
efficient to work in, which I
really appreciate.
Observe -
To the editor:
It would seem that two
people supposedly qualified
for their jobs, one presently
writing her own column in the
local paper and the other an
English teacher, would have
ovserved one of the basic rules
of writing articles for publica
tion, which is to check and
verify the facts, before signing
their names to last week's
letter to the editor, "Which
Willow Creek?". The opening
sentence. "Two men who ar
dently fought against the Wil
low Creek Project, etc." is
only half true. No one has been
a more enthusiastic and ar
dent supporter of the dam
project than Dick Wilkinson.
Anyone who has ever discus
sed it with him would certain
ly testify to his positive at-
It was a pleasure -
To the editor:
While visiting relatives in
Morrow County, I stopped at
the library-museum in Hep
pner. It was a pleasure to find
such an extensive collection of
furniture, everyday utensils,
clothes and pictures that re
minded me of visits long ago
to my grandparents. Otto and
Ann Lindstrom.

To the editor:
We would like to say thank
you to all of you who made our
class reunion such a wonder
ful success. A special thanks
to Rick and Susan Johnston
for all of their time and help.
We really do appreciate it.

The Editor
We should all be very proud
of our seniors for keeping such
an active part in our wonder
ful community. I feel we could
all learn something from
them.
My family and I have lived
here nearly four years. This
past year I have cooked at the
mealsite and it has made me
truly feel a part of our com
munity. Never having known
my own grandparents, and my
parents being so far away, it's
like having a whole "other
family" close by.
You are all dear
to my heart.
Cherrie K. Clark
titude concerning the dam,
and indeed, because he has
bothered to acquaint himself
with as much knowledge as
possible concerning the dam's
structure and safety, has been
responsible for allaying the
fears of quite a few people.
Also, the writers seem to have
missed a most important point
concerning circulating the
petitions about the naming of
the dam: two men who held
opposing views regarding the
project joined forces to work
toward the common goal of
obtaining the more popular
name for the project. The
more than 800 names on the
petitions contained signatures
of both proponents and op
ponents of the project.
