He and Linda, who were maimed in Lewiston, Idaho, have three children-Robtn, who was bom in 1963, Shawn, who was bom in 1964, and Michelle, who was bom in 1965; and seven grandchildren. LaRue was bom in Milton- Freewater and graduated from high school there, where he played basketball and baseball. After high school, he went to Pacific University at Forest Grove and graduated from there in 1960 with a degree in physical education and a minor in social studies. He played basketball his freshman year at PSU, but decided playing took too much of his time. After graduation he got a job teaching social studies, biology, geometry, and PE and coaching "everything" at Lostine, where he taught for four years and also met his wife. When the Lostine schools consolidated with Wallowa, LaRue taught at Wallowa for two years. At Wallowa, he taught social studies and PE and was assistant football and track coach and head basketball coach. After leaving Wallowa, he got a job at Fossil, where he taught social studies and PE. He was assistant football coach there for two years, head football coach for two years and head basketball and track coach. After Fossil, he thought he wanted to go to a larger school, but there weren't many basketball coaching positions at larger schools, so he took a year off from teaching. During that year, he worked at building pickup campers at Pendleton. "I wasn't sure I wanted to go back to teaching, so I applied for a couple civil service jobs. I had a job in Bend working with the unemployed, but then I decided to go back to teaching. And that's when I got this job." LaRue is licensed to teach virtually everything and just about has over the years-listing PE, science, biology, earth science, health and counseling positions in lone, in addition to serving as athletic director. LaRue says that educational reform is a contributing factor in his decision to retire this year. "There are just so many new things," said LaRue. "I guess I'm not ready to change the way I teach. I'm not willing to change the way I've done it for all these years." Change is not always a good thing—especially for lone students, school staff and parents who will miss their beloved teacher and coach.
