Rick De Young and the family of Timber Valley resident Nusha De Young wish to express their gratitude to all the residents who were able to attend her memorial service in the Timber Valley club house last Friday afternoon. Thanks are also extended to those folks who baked and brought food and made the punch that was offered. It was truly incredible to see approximately 90 people attend the memorial service and have more than enough refreshments, all with less than two days notice!
Pastor Stewart Fowler, soloist Betsii Outland, pianist Helen Schrader and friend Becky Holm all made the memorial service special to all who attended and we thank them for their tributes to Nusha.
Funeral arrangements are being handled by Umpqua Valley Funeral Directors of Roseburg, Oregon and burial will occur with a short service at the Roseburg National Cemetery on Wednesday, October 3, 2018 at 2:00 p.m. Reverend Stewart Fowler will conduct that service. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests those who wish to do so make donations, in Mabel De Young’s name, to the Roseburg Community Cancer Center or to the American Cancer Society.
A big Timber Valley Welcome to new members Karen and Garrett Billington. They’re on lot 186.
The flags were flown at half staff on July 31, 2018 to mark the passing of Anne Arnette. Anne and her husband James were long time members of Timber Valley. They left the park a few years ago and made their home in California.
Gardens discovered is more like it! Fifteen people walked among over 20 different gardens getting a behind the scenes tour of work being done there by the many Master Gardeners. At an adjacent Victory Garden some gardeners were harvesting vegetables for donation to UCAN that are then distributed to local food pantries and community kitchens. Master Gardeners Jude Stenslund and Kish Doyle provided a very interesting and informative tour in an environment that beckoned us to linger and come back.
