June 10, 2020


         Our River McKay Morgan, daughter of Sharla and Lin McKay, has graduated from Utah State University. She has a Bachelor of Science in Outdoor Product Design and Development. She isn't just adding a new chapter to her life, this step into her future will be a whole new section, recently married, now has a new job where she will be creating motorcycle gear in a new location. Adventure as life unfolds.
         Phee and Robert Crosland are announcing two new grandchildren. Malia and Jason Kunde of Rigby, ID, had a baby boy on May 18. He is a first and is welcomed by four excited sisters. Dr. Giovanni and Kristine Crosland, now of Tremonton, UT, added a little girl to their family, now numbering three boys, three girls.
         Many thanks to our sextons who take care of the beautiful Mink Creek Cemetery. Over the holiday the colorful flowers, decorations and photos of some of the cemetery residents made it a spot where visitors wanted to come, linger and browse. The field of golden mules' ear blossoms that flow up the slope east of the cemetery only makes the place more attractive. Our founding fathers chose the perfect spot for their resting place.
          Laural and Jody Janke and their children drove up from Richfield, UT, and spent the holiday weekend with her parents, Bob and Claudia Erickson. Even the rain and gloom that arrived one day couldn't dampen the fun of being together for the first time since Christmas.
          The annual Mink Creek School Reunion, previously scheduled for June 20 at the church recreation hall, has been canceled for this year, due to the restrictions of the COVID 19. It has been postponed to take place the summer of 2021. Karen Olson Tribett, now living in Payson, UT, has been planning this and will continue to be in charge for the next gathering. She asks that all those planning to attend keep their memories intact and just put them on a shelf, ready for a year from now.

        Some of you may recall some years ago when we had a snow storm on the 4th of July. We are hoping that doesn't happen again. This past week we have had rain, some cold, some a little warmer. We have had thrashing winds. No damage that I know of. For at least two nights it has been advisable to cover up our infant gardens and tomato plants. Not exactly ideal weather for haying season.
