The Hermiston Public Library
recently turned the page with lon-
ger hours, which started earlier
this week.
The library is now open Monday
through Thursday from 10 a.m. to
8 p.m. — an extra hour each eve-
ning. Library director Mark Rose
said the change provides the pub-
lic with an additional hour in the
evening to hold classes, use library
resources and peruse the collec-
tion and check out items.
The Friday/Saturday hours
remain the same from 10 a.m. to
5 p.m.
“To serve you better, we will
be open more hours,” Rose said.
“These new hours will help get
a little more homework done, a
bit more time to look for a job
or housing, or to find the movie
you’re been wanting to see.”

Irrigon veteran cruises into 95th birthday
Robert Reid recently had a
birthday to remember.
The 95-year-old Irrigon
man is a World War II vet-
eran who spent most of his
time during the war in the
South Pacific. Richard Scar-
lett and Wanda Hunt of Uma-
tilla made arrangements to
meet him at the Stanfield
Senior Center for lunch.
Then, Reid’s granddaughters,
Michelle Williams, who lives
in Utah, and Heather Kandle,
who resides in North Dakota,
showed up. Unbeknownst
to Reid, his daughter, Janie
Kepler, had made arrange-
ments for the surprise.
Reid lived most of his life
in Heppner, moving to Irri-
gon about 10 years ago. He
worked in the lumber indus-
try and has made furniture,
bird houses and wooden
boxes that he sells at area
farmers markets.
Scarlett and Hunt met Reid
about 10 years ago and said
he has a smile that lights up a
room. Later after a pizza din-
ner, Reid headed to Hat Rock
where Scarlett and Hunt took
him on a sunset cruise on the
Columbia River on their pon-
toon boat. Hunt said Reid
commented, “This is a birth-
day to remember.”
