This photo by Sharon Hoseley shows some of the 3,227 masks she and her granddaughter have sewn since March. Remembering my New Year’s challenge of “doing something I’ve never done before,” I jumped at the chance. With determination, I conquered the ability to type and print, followed by the frustration of hitting the wrong key and losing it all. “Delete” seemed to be the computer’s main language. But I did it. I already had fulfilled my New Year’s resolution. There’s a new list on my refrigerator each year titled: Things I’ve never done before. It tracks things big and small and holds memories which I read each New Year’s Eve. Here are a few examples from my lists over the years: ï Took my two teenagers on a road trip to California for a month. ï Learned to play rock-paper-scissors (I still struggle with this one). ï Flew to Germany alone. ï Taught driver’s education. ï Became a professional night janitor. ï Became a grandma. ï Grew Jerusalem artichokes. GOLDEN TIMES
ï Made divinity. Whether big or small, “something I’ve never done before” is a part of new chances. I even found a way to do something
new during the pandemic. I had cloth, a sewing machine, thread — all I needed was elastic. I’d never made a mask before. I taught my granddaughter to sew. We watched a tutorial, and away we went on the adventure of making and giving away masks — 3,227 so far I challenge you in 2021 to open your eyes and step through the doors of something you’ve never done before. It’s a no-fail resolution. Hoseley is a freelance writer and retired kindergarten teacher who lives in Clarkston. She looks forward to sharing her out-ofthe-box, out-loud thoughts with you each month. She can be reached at sah32@cableone.net.

Loretta Ready, 90
Chloe McCulley, 95
Leo Snider, 96
Sid Bradley, 95
Loretta Genevieve Kaschmitter Ready celebrated her birthday Sunday at Golden Girls Residential Care in Lewiston. Ninety is an important milestone, but she would credit God more than herself for reaching it. John Edward Ready was one lucky so-and-so when Loretta became his wife on Oct. 5, 1957. They had six children: Joe, Mark, Lori, Lisa, Jack and Pat, and were together until John’s death on Feb. 13, 2016, after 58 years of marriage. “We kids are lucky so-andsos, too,” her son, Mark Ready wrote. “I remember Mom peeling potatoes while holding my infant twin sisters and watching over my brother and I at the same time. I remember dinners made from a seemingly empty cupboard, and her walking to the laundromat to do our laundry. She revels in her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren and was always there when we needed her. She showed us what was important in life by her example.” Loretta says she’s had a good life and misses her husband John — and son Pat who died earlier. She says she values her family and Catholic faith more than anything else. We know Mom, you showed us. The family plans to serve cake and ice cream ASAP.
Chloe McCulley of Grangeville was born Chloe Bentley in 1926 and has spent every one of her 95 years on “the Prairie” as an Idaho County resident. She was born at White Bird and grew up on the Doumecq Plains. She married Marshall McCulley, and together they raised four children — Jack, Janice, Wayne and Wanda. Chloe and Marshall enjoyed an outdoor life. In the early days of their marriage, they ran the McCulley Ranch on Doumecq together. After moving to Grangeville, they camped, traveled the Western states and followed the sports activities of their children and grandchildren. Idaho County history is still of great interest to Chloe. She can recount family trees, early 20th century home sites, and various historical events that affected numerous generations of Prairie residents. Her other interests include family, church, politics, sports (particularly Gonzaga basketball and rodeo), and following her many Facebook friends. Although COVID-19 has limited Chloe’s out-of-home activities for the past year, she enjoys hearing from friends and family via telephone, text message, e-mail, Facebook and an occasional old-fashioned written letter. A celebration gathering for her will be held this summer.
Leo Snider was born in 1925 to Cecil and Flossie Snider in Cereal, Alberta, Canada. In 1928, the family moved to Clarkston, where he still lives. Leo attended school in Clarkston, graduating in 1942. He started playing golf at Clarkston Country club the year it was built, 1937. He excelled at golf and was proud of winning the Wingding tournament in Lewiston, making three hole-in-one shots and shooting his age more than once until age 87. After graduating high school, he went to work at Mason Ehrman. When World War II started, he enlisted in the Navy, serving on Pitili island and on the USS Pocomoke for two years. He returned to Clarkston and married Mildred Byers in 1949. They had two sons, Mark of Clarkston and Craig of Puyallup, Wash. He has three grandchildren and six great-grandchildren. He worked at Morgan Brothers in Lewiston until retiring at 59. He is a member of the First Presbyterian Church in Clarkston. Leo loves to tell a good story and enjoys singing at church and karaoke at any opportunity. He took loving care of his wife, keeping her at home until her death in September 2018. He lives at Evergreen Estates.
Merlin Sidney Bradley of Clarkston was born in 1926 in Hunters, Wash. Sid grew up on a ranch outside of Daisy, Wash., and graduated from Hunters High School in 1943. He was drafted into the Army at age 18, and was sent to Germany, where he went through the Battle of the Bulge. After coming home, he attended Seattle Pacific College, where he met his wife, Pat. They married in 1948, and after working in the U.S. Post Office for six years, they moved to Clarkston. Their family grew to five children, and later 11 grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren. Sid worked in the sheet metal industry for 33 years and has been retired for 33 years, spending many hours playing golf. He and Pat have been married for 72 years and have been members of First Baptist Church.

“Our whole life was in the Orchards. We all went to the Orchards School and had the same principals and teachers. We were all pretty favorable, and we didn’t get into a lot of trouble or anything like that.” DONALD SNYDER, 87, LEWISTON

T

Snyder — are the surviving siblings out of a group of seven, all of whom lived to be in their 90s. “I talked to a doctor about the age thing in the family, and he said, ‘You just simply have very good genes,’ ” said Chuck, who recently turned 90. “The work ethic is probably what did it. All of us kids
worked hard. I don’t know what else it would be.” The Snyders grew up on a large plot of land in the Lewiston Orchards, where their family grew fruit trees and raised their own animals. Their father, Charles, worked at a flour mill, and their mother, Myrtle, did most of the work in the garden and GOLDEN TIMES
focused on raising the kids. “I don’t remember ever going hungry,” Chuck said. “We raised everything ourselves except for the sugar, of course, and dad brought home plenty of flour (from work.)” All three have fond memories of living on the farm. Donald, who is the youngest of the three at
87 years old, said the kids spent a lot of time hunting squirrels and groundhogs. “Our whole life was in the Orchards.

a lot of trouble or anything like that.” As kids, Donald and John both took on paper routes for the Lewiston Tribune under the watchful eye of Joe Girard, a man they said had no legs, but an impeccable work record. While the pay wasn’t the greatest, it gave them something to do. When they were old enough to leave home, the oldest brother, John, who is 95, said they jumped at the chance. “Every one of us kids, I guess we got out as soon as we could make a buck, and boy, were we after it,” John said. “I think just living a good, hard life did us some good.” In the Snyder clan, six of the seven siblings served in the military. Donald spent 20 years in the Air Force, mainly as a pilot. He retired as a lieutenant colonel. Chuck spent four years in the Air Force, where he was a drill sergeant and later became an aircraft technician, while John was drafted and served three years as a Marine. Once they returned from service, the brothers spent stints living in other states, but they all returned to Lewiston. Each went on to get married, although Donald’s wife, Helen, is the only spouse still alive. “He was a little rascal, and he was a hard working son of a gun as well,” Helen said. Each brother worked a variety of jobs before they retired. Chuck owned a Harley-Davidson Motorcycles shop and worked for the Lewiston Police Department. He also spent time in the integrated television department at Washington State University and was later the town marshal in Colton. After he retired from the Air Force, Donald built houses, had a rock-crushing business and made investments in real estate. John also was a real estate investor. He built subdivisions, was a truck driver and worked in the woods. “I ended up doing pretty good for myself, and I had two darn good wives. If I hadn’t had them, I probably wouldn’t be where I’m

Hospice care focuses on making people comfortable in their final six months of life. Palliative care, however, aims to relieve the symptoms and stress of serious illness with the goal of improving quality of life, and it functions as an extra layer of support for patients and their families.

Can musculoskeletal strength and flexibility screening utilizing a floor to stand transfer impact long term survival in middle aged to elderly people? Levi Frasier, PT
Musculoskeletal strength and flexibility testing is important in the justification of physical therapy due to its impact on function. Screening tests are used frequently in physical therapy but there is limited specific data on indicators for musculoskeletal fitness required to maintain a good quality of life and increase survival. 2002 participants completed a sitting to rising test (SRT) to and from the floor. Results of the study concluded that lower SRT scores were predictive of higher mortality rates and results are statistically significant. They further concluded that a one point increase in the SRT score which is score out of 10 points improved survivability by 21% in this population. Physical therapy emphasizing proper screening and evaluation can positively influence survival rates. Specific screening tools for function including the Selective Functional Movement Screen can accurately assist in diagnosing movement dysfunction. The test will allow the therapist to focus specifically on the areas of the body that need to be addressed to meet the demands of the sitting to rising test. Please contact the Institute of Physical therapy with any concerns you have regarding strength to allow us to evaluate and assist you in restoring function.

> BEWARE OF CATFISHERS LOOKING FOR “LOVE” Catfishing is when someone fakes an online identity to scam victims for money, romance or physical harm. These predatory online relationships can last for months or even years. It’s catfishing if ... They ask for money: An online friend or romantic interest whom you’ve never met asks you to send money or provide your bank information. They won’t meet. Beware if the contact strings you along but avoids meeting in person. Some catfishers agree to meet but have an “emergency” — such as a canceled flight or a medical issue — that prevents it. Catfishers often claim to be stationed abroad or working on an oil rig as an excuse for not meeting. Skyping is off limits, too. Catfishers refuse to video chat. They seem too good to be true. Some people who catfish feel bad about themselves and often assume the online persona of a fashion model, actor, successful businessperson, etc.
