Dick "Shop Teacher" Easley

I (Patty Plunkett Holler) attended the funeral service recently for Anna Easley, widow of Mr. Easley. While there, I saw a nice photo of the Easleys displayed along with other photos & mementoes of Mrs. Easley. So, I snapped a picture of this photo to post here: (Have no idea when it was taken, but he passed away in 2004.) Now... also scroll down below the picture for an interesting link:

While I was thinking about posting the picture here, I wondered when Mr. Easley passed away, so I googled his name and learned that he passed in 2004. And, I also unexpectedly found a link to a very interesting document concerning him. In 1989, he was interviewed by a Military person, and this link takes you to a long (74 pages!) typed transcript of the interview. It tells of Mr. Easley's military experiences including being at Pearl Harbor on Dec. 7th.

Sorry these links are not "clickable." But one or the other should get you to the article. You can copy and paste them into your browser & then read it.

Mr. York, 1959 Paul Donald York, (12-12-1913 - 8-17-1997. Born in Oklahoma.

In June Mr. Jesse Unruh, a teacher whom some of you remember, attended the class breakfast. He brought some interesting artifacts from the past, among them was this roster of Lincoln County teachers for the year 1950:

Published in Newport News-Times on 21 January, 2015

January 4, 2015 we heard that Harry McAdams passed away. We have not located an obituary or a death notice for him, but we heard that he is buried in Valley View Cemetery in Newberg.

December 17, 2014 The Newport News-Times had a whole-page tribute to Harry McAdams. Mr. McAdams is very ill (cancer) and receiving Hospice care now. He is living in Newberg. Noting that he graduated from high school in 1953, he must be around 80 years old! (That's hard to imagine.)
