The following is a tribute to Lynn Murray whose untimely death created
shock waves for his family, friends and the community.
Ode to Lynn Murray
For pleasure or for work, he rode with a smile
In sunshine or pouring rain, travelling many a mile
Horses he loved, be it stallion, gelding or mare
And he also treated people with the greatest of care
May Lynn ride through the heavens astride one of the best
As his spirit lives on through his friends in the West.
Fredrick and Helen Horton Martin of lone will celebrate their 50th wed
ding anniversary on Sunday. Feb. 24 at the lone United Church of Christ
after the regular 11 a m. service. All friends are invited to attend. The Mar
tins request no gifts.
They were married in Astoria on February 22, 1941 and the city girl
was taken to the country of Madras where Fred farmed with his family in
the area.
While in Madras, they had three children. Melvin, Moses Lake. WA.;
' Jean Brazell, Lexington; and Ralph, Lake Oswego.
In 1948 the couple purchased the Earl Morgan wheat ranch near Cecil
and moved the whole family to lone in the spring ot 194V, where they have
lived since that time.
The couple have been very active in the lone United Church of Christ
and in other community and county organizations. Fred retired from farm
ing after 50 years and currently "putters” at Lexington Machine Works.
Helen is still organist at the lone church and is active in the lone Garden
Club.
The Martins also have nine grandchildren, one who is serving in Saudi
Arabia, and two great-grandchildren. They enjoyed a long weekend with
the family at a Gearhart beach house Feb. 15-18. An open house was held
for them on Sunday.

spokesperson, and left there know
ing the Lord as his personal
savior. He now oversees about 70

most of the western states and
Canada. Everyone is invited to at

Hope, Valby sponsor film presentations
Wednesday evening, the second in
a series of presentations by Bishop
Herbert Chilstrom entitled "What
Does it Mean to Be a Christian?”
will be held. "Faith and Sin” will
be the topic at Valby Lutheran
Church at 6:45 p.m. A soup supper
will be served at 6 p.m.
Hope Lutheran will have the series

respective worship services. (Valby
at 9 a.m. and Hope at 11 a.m.)
Pastor Hoobing will preach on the
theme "G od’s Gifts of Love,” bas
ed on a reading from Romans
5:1-11. A special children’s sermon
will be given entitled, "God at the
End of the Ladder,” based on a
reading from the 28th chapter of
Genesis.
The war in the Persian Gulf, crisis situations on the home front and every
day struggles make every one of us aware of our own mortality. But we
often fail to appreciate the contribution to our lives from the interaction
with others. And sometimes it is too late to say ‘thank you.’
Lynn’s helpful ways and his many talents-such as horsemanship skills,
leather work and horse shoeing—will be missed. However the wisdom that
he shared with others will never be forgotten.
None of us can walk in another’s footsteps. But may the memories of
the happy times that revolved around him be a comfort to family members
and friends.
