Clarence M. “Cub” Bare
Clarence M. “Cub”
Bare, 85, passed away on
Jan. 8 at Mid-Columbia
Medical Center in The
Dalles due to complica-
tions of diabetes. Cub was
born on Dec. 20, 1932 in
Fossil, OR to Clarence M.
and Veva (Edwards) Bare.
Services will be held at a
later date.
Cub first attended
school in Fossil then moved
to Wamic after his dad died
and later to Maupin, where
he lived with relatives and
friends while working his
way through school. He
graduated from Wasco
County Union High School
in 1951, where he was a
standout athlete and made
many lifelong friends. After
high school Cub joined the
Navy, serving from 1952-
1956. He then took advan-
tage of the G.I. Bill to earn
a degree in education from
Eastern Oregon College.
While attending EOU, he
was a member of the 1956
football team which was
later inducted into the EOU
Hall of Fame Class of 2006.
He met Mary L. Swiger of
Baker and they married on
Jan. 18, 1958 in LaGrande.
They moved around eastern
Oregon and eventually set-
tled in Condon where they
raised their three children.
Cub had several dif-
ferent careers throughout
his life, all of which he
was proud of. He did odd
jobs on farms, a sawmill
and restaurants when he
was young, often washing
dishes or chopping wood
for a meal. After college
he taught grade school in
Heppner and Condon, then
decided he would rather be
outdoors and spent many
years working on and man-
aging farms. He and his son,
Tom, also started the T &
D Storage business, which
he managed until his death.

A three-day vegetar-
ian cooking class will be
held Feb. 5, 6 and 7 from
7-8 p.m. at the Heppner
Seventh-Day Adventist
Church that will cover reci-
pes for each of the basic
meal times.
The class is geared to-
ward learning what a vege-
tarian eats, what to make for
of his family. He was fre-
quently seen (and heard)
sitting in the front row of
his children’s and grand-
children’s events, travel-
ing many miles across the
northwest to support them.
He enjoyed family and
school reunions and could
spend hours sharing stories
and reminiscing. He hosted
the Edwards family reunion
in Condon this past Septem-
ber and got to share more
of his family’s history and
the family homestead near
Fossil with his immediate
family and several of his
nieces. Cub loved to fix
things, rarely giving up
on any piece of equipment
and shared many “how-
tos” with his children and
grandchildren. He was a
fiercely independent and
hard-working individual
who did anything he could
to support his family.
Cub was preceded in
death by his half-sisters,
