Rhea also noted that Friends Helping Friends raised funds to cover more than half of the cost of the larger glidescope currently used in the PMH emer- gency room. “That’s saved many lives,” she said. The blood warmer de- sired for the ER will warm blood and IV luids before they go into the patient. Ac- cording to Rhea, it is a sur- prisingly crucial component in emergency situations. “One of the things we’re always trying to do with a trauma patient is warm them. For one reason or another, they’re often very cold, and the blood we use is coming straight from the fridge,” said Rhea. “When we put cold luids into people, we’re not doing Rhea also said the blood warmer ills a two- fold need, as it can also be used to increase patient comfort during elective procedures in the hospital, such as blood transfusions for anemic patients. “The Friends Help- ing Friends committee is excited to have chosen emergency service items this year, that can help save lives,” said one committee member. The annual Remem- brance Walk/5K Run will take place March 19 dur- ing the St. Patrick’s Day celebration. The event will begin with a social hour and registration followed by the the walk/run starting at 9:30 a.m. The walk/run will pro- ceed following a route of handmade green sham- rocks. Each shamrock sports a pink heart with the name, and sometimes a photo, of a remembered loved-one. Donation is $5 per name. Due to limited supplies, Feb. 29 will be the last day to order shamrocks. Pre-registration for the walk/run is encouraged. Friends Helping Friends is again asking for a $5 dona- tion per walker or runner. Children accompanied by adults are free. Everyone is encouraged to wear green or pink. New this year is a drop location inside Heppner City Hall for fundraiser stubs and donations. Com- mittee members say St. Pat- rick’s Day Remembrance Walk/Run lyers will be in the mail shortly, and sham- rocks are being made. For more information on the walk or shamrocks, contact Susan Hisler at 541- 676-5878. Anyone wanting a photo shamrock needs to mail photos to Hisler at 56504 Little Butter Cr. Rd. Heppner or drop them off at Heppner Windwave in care of Sandy Matthews. BERGSTROM RETIRES -Continued from PAGE ONE regionally throughout the horses and a quarter horse. ask the farmer to bor- row his tractor to go ahead and pull them out. He was pretty nice about it.” And then there were the occasional natural disasters. “I’ve seen it be spring up here and winter on the river, and I’d be ice skating in the rig,” he says. “When St. Helens blew, that was another challenge, playing in the ash.” Bergstrom’s entire life wasn’t spent look- ing through a windshield, though. He met and mar- ried his wife, Rita, and the two spent the next thirty- some years in Heppner, where they raised their two children, Adam and Emily. Bergstrom spent time watching his kids play sports, plus more time on the road traveling for 4-H and rodeo court activities. He also put in more than 30 years as a volunteer with the Heppner Fire Department. Bergstrom’s last of- icial day on the job was Monday. When asked how it feels to retire, he says, “Cool. It’s been cool.” “It’s a good feeling for me that, after this long, I don’t have to get up at three or four in the morning and go someplace, or come home at 10 or 11 at night,” he adds. Bergstrom isn’t going to let himself go to seed, though. He and Rita plan to travel, he says, probably Northwest. “We’ve been to Cana- da,” he adds. “I’d go back.” They also plan to get in- volved more in horse activi- ties; his wife and daughter are already afiliated with a sidesaddle group, and the family is also thinking of getting into trail challenges. “We love horses,” he says, adding that they have three horses, two Morgan “Two of them are older than dirt, kinda like me,” he jokes. Morrow County Grain Growers is planning a re- tirement open house for Bergstrom this Friday, Feb. 5, from 2-4 p.m. at MCGG Lexington. Refreshments will be served, and all are welcome to attend and help Bergstrom celebrate his retirement.
