Well, it all started out innocently enough. I was teaching in a mountain town in the center of Slovenia called Trbovlje (pronounced more or less as “turb-Olia”), and my husband was with me for several months.
On Palm Sunday we were planning to drive to Piran, a Slovene seacoast village. Our landlady asked us to bring back an olive branch, which she said was good luck.
“Sure,” I replied in German, the language I used to communicate with her, “but where do I find olive branches?”
She put out her hand and
with a quick twist of the wrist and closing of the fingers indicated I was just to take it anytime I saw one.
Europeans are great for clarifying things via hand gestures.
At the church I attend here in Idaho, parishioners are given palm branches on Palm Sunday, so I expected I would see something similar except with olive branches.
It was a warm, sunny Mediterranean day in Piran and, while enjoying a bela kava (latte) at an outdoor café, I noticed several people in the square carrying small olive branches. Most notable among them was an older
man with such a stern and forceful demeanor that the image that sprang to mind was that of the revengeful Roger Chillingworth, husband of poor Hester Prynne in Hawthorn’s “The Scarlet Letter.” I shuddered.
As we sauntered around touring the little ancient walled town, I kept my eyes open for a shop where I could buy an olive bough but never saw anyplace they were being sold. After visiting various points of interest, we found ourselves at the top of the town where St. George’s Parish Church stood watch. By that time of the afternoon it was empty of worshipers, but there in front of the altar was a table heaped with olive branches. Ah, so
this is where people found them. I chose one for my landlady and one to decorate our own little flat.
Pleased with my discovery and feeling lucky, we began our walk back to the distant parking lot where we left our car. Along the way, whom should we meet but the Roger Chillingworth look-alike. Yikes! He gave me such a look that it made my blood freeze.
My landlady was happy and we were also happy with our olive branches. I thought nothing more of the experience, but years later I was relating the story to a
friend from Germany. “Dixie!” she hooted. “You stole those olive branches! You are supposed to take them TO the church, not take them FROM the church.”
At last I understood Mr. Chillingworth’s hostile stare. I hope God forgave my blunder, and I also hope he got a good chuckle about this repentant sinner’s error.

Vera Holthaus, 90
Friends and family are invited to help Vera Holthaus celebrate her 90th birthday from 1-4 p.m. Aug. 12 at Cottonwood Community Hall.
Vera was born Aug. 10, 1933, to Anthony and Winifred Goeckner Uhlenkott, and is the eldest of seven siblings. Her mother died when she was 13, and she helped raise her siblings until her father remarried.
Vera has lived in the Cottonwood and Keuterville area her entire life. She worked at the Camas Cafe in Cottonwood and married Cliff Holthaus on Oct. 23, 1952. Together they raised their seven children, and Vera ran a home day care until she retired in 2007. Many of her “kids” still call her Grandma Vera and visit her when they can.
Vera is a member of the Women of St. Mary’s Parish, the St. Mary’s/Clearwater Valley Hospital Guild, and the former Happy Hours Club. She enjoys going to Senior Citizens and monthly birthday luncheons, playing cards and bingo, reading and having coffee with her friends.
Vera has five sons, two daughters, 18 grandchildren and 38 great grandchildren. Her children will be hosting the celebration.
Birthday announcements starting at age 70 are accepted for free publication in the month of the birthday only. Length limit is 200 words. Include a name and contact information. Submissions may be sent to goldentimes@lmtribune. com or Golden Times, P.O. Box 957, Lewiston, ID 83501. August birthday announcements must be received by 5 p.m. Aug. 19.

Elizabeth Heimgartner, 94
Elizabeth Heimgartner was born Aug. 15, 1929.
Mom, former postmaster, community volunteer and tireless sporting/ events chauffeur, turns 94 this month. She was born in Juliaetta, where she graduated from high school and also raised her family. Even following a move to Lewiston, she maintained the anchor in her life: Juliaetta Community Church.
Son Ken remembers both Mom’s and Dad’s loyalty to “always being there for family.” Ken’s career led him to eight military assignments in the U.S. and three overseas, all of which Mom and Dad traveled to for celebrating. They never missed a major milestone in any of their grandkid’s lives.
Son Mark remembers being shooed outside with the reminder to come back for lunch and dinner (perfectly safe then). The independence and courage learned while exploring prepared him to own a crop dusting business as an adult. Of course, all the siblings benefitted from “shooing!”
Daughter Carol grows more grateful every year for the organic farm and garden lifestyle of her youth; and the wonderful longevity genes gifted to each sibling from very young parents.
Daughter Joyce values the walks with Mom over the hills collecting wildflowers. She also recalls being told: “Don’t eat the peas!” Mind you, Joyce was sitting in the garden at the time. Fondest birthday wishes, Mom. Elizabeth’s family and friends will celebrate her birthday with her.
While summer heat keeps me inside more these days, an evening drive to the countryside still makes me marvel at the beauty of where we live. Rolling hills are caressed with light. Canola fields in bloom are so bright they are almost florescent. The farmer barbers blonde wheat fields.
Soaring hawks harvest along with the farmers, snatching mice that scurry
GALLIVANTING GRANNY Hazel Christiansenspot them. At the edge of the reservoir, butterflies gather for a drink while I watch the bobber on my line sink beneath the surface.
It’s the simple things in life that bring such joy, like the sights and
before the stars begin to peek. Who doesn’t say “good night moon” when that golden orb winks from between the clouds?
I gather my pups in my arms and bury my face against them. Closing the door, I feel little need to lock the door because I have such good neighbors — perhaps a false sense of security, but I like it.
Travel is fun but it always makes me grateful to get home to sleep in my own bed. I’m grateful
for new life lessons every day, new experiences and new friends.
Here’s a shameless plug: I hope to see all of you at my book signings when I reveal my first young adult novel “Cash, the Dog with Butterfly Ears.” It could make a nice gift for someone in your family who needs inspiration. I’ll be at DZ Design in Lewiston on Aug. 4 and 5. Look for more details in Inland 360.
It’s been an amazing year, as a gallivanting
granny I turned 80. I saw parts of Costa Rica, Thailand, Malaysia, Vietnam, Cambodia and Singapore. While judging a dog-grooming event in Colorado Springs, I saw Pike’s Peak and it was pretty, too. So, maybe the best is yet to come. But, as most of you already know, there’s no place like home where one always feels welcome to be back.

Iwas overwhelmed with the number of people who walked my life bridge in the month of June. I admit, I’ve become quite comfortable with the quiet of aloneness. I’ve always thought of myself as gregarious, enjoying people. However, living alone for nearly 40 years, I treasure silent time to converse with myself, plan, implement, read, write, listen to the water splash in my pond and the birds singing. June was filled to the brim with a convention, my granddaughter’s Walla Walla Community College graduation (out of town company), a writer’s conference, celebrating our 65th high school reunion and the Lewiston High School All Class reunion, two important meetings out of town, a dear friend’s memorial service and an impromptu reunion with former staff where I taught. I topped off the whirlwind of events with the Walk with the Ancestors at the cemetery July 4 and lunch with a friend. Whew! Actually, I enjoyed every single event, but it was exhausting. When I stopped long enough July 5 to look in the mirror, I discovered lines and wrinkles that were not there before. So that’s where they come from? The busyness that doesn’t allow down time? Lack of sleep? Expectations of always being on top of it all? The stress of “am I ready for the next event?” Outward focused so much that taking care
of “me” becomes nonexistent? Yes, I realized I even forgot to eat many days or take my vitamins. And I certainly hadn’t taken time to stimulate my mind with the daily crossword puzzle or Sudoku in the newspaper.
The yard work had run away because of my neglect.
Ivy crawled up the shop wall, the grass was so tall a squirrel could hide in it and the morning glory blossomed in the front yard.
I’m thankful my sprinkler system kept everything alive. For two days I tore into the outdoors around my house. What great therapy physical work is. I conquered the jungle and ate breakfast on the patio the next morning while reading the newspaper, listening to the gurgling pond and the chirping of birds.
Now don’t get me wrong. I do love people. I enjoy the comradery, the friendship, the stimulation of conversation. Relationships are the most important thing to celebrate in life. Long-term relationships are a gift. High school friends in their 80s share special memories of a long-ago time when we were young, naïve and eager to move on. More than half of our class of 1958 have left this life. Our time of remembering them and their special contribution in our lives was marked by a gong with each name and bagpipes playing “Amazing Grace” at the end. There was a “brag table” with items shared by class members present and
absent. We looked in awe at what had been shared with the world through our friends’ pleasures, gifts and accomplishments. We honored Sue Hall who lives on the East Coast, but has been instrumental in keeping our class together through the internet. We added our presence to the All Class Reunion on Saturday and were treated to a tour of the new Lewiston High School. Saturday night found us enraptured listening to Steve Branting’s “Born to the Purple” review of education in Lewiston. We visited and visited and visited.
Life is short. I’ve heard that and yet the reality was a hammer pounding in a reminder when a friend, Barb Reddekkopp, suddenly left us while at a special event in southern Idaho. Fourteen friends and staff from Grantham Elementary were brought together to remember her and give thanks for having her in our lives as teacher and friend.
What I’m saying is: Connections with people are vital. Isolation robs us. We need each other. I’m blessed beyond words for every single life who walked with me in June. Each impacted my story during some season as I’ve continued to build my bridge.
It’s my hope that in some way, I’ve influenced them, making their life more beautiful. Jump at every chance to share with others and take good care of yourself. We have this time to treasure.

are fun, too, say Lewiston men Bruce Brotnov and Will Godfrey, who will compete in Idaho Senior Games this month in Boise
By KERRI SANDAINE FOR GOLDEN TIMESStaying active is a key ingredient to healthy living as you age.
That’s the message from two Lewiston men who are competing in the Idaho Senior Games in Boise this month.
Bruce Brotnov, 78, and Will Godfrey, 85, are walking the talk as they train for field events and another opportunity to qualify for nationals.
Brotnov, a retired engineer for the federal government, moved to Lewiston in 2000 with his wife, Helen. He is a Kamiah graduate who earned degrees at the University of Idaho, and set a college record in the javelin that stood for 32 years.
Godfrey, who is married to wife Sandra, has lived in the area for about 20 years. He’s well-known for his numerous fly fishing accomplishments and is still a semi-retired ranch and sales broker.
“I do a lot of different things, just to stay alive,” Godfrey said. “I’ve been a senior athlete since I was 55, and I’ve qualified for nationals every year for the last 20 years.”
The two athletes became good friends who
train together whenever possible. Brotnov is adept at the hammer, javelin, discus, shot put, and football and softball throws.
“I’m just blessed by God to have a good arm,” Brotnov said. “All glory goes to God.”
When he’s not training for senior games, Brotnov enjoys golf and pickleball, along with going to the gym. “I think it’s much better than being a couch potato.”
Godfrey’s main events are discus, shot put and the standing long jump.
“I used to do a lot more, but things change as you age,” Godfrey said. “As you become a senior, you’ve got to stay active. That’s very important. It’s not about winning medals, it’s about staying alive and healthy. I still go to the gym every morning.”
Still, both men admit bringing home a medal is a great feeling. They’ve both done well at state and national events, where the competition is “tremendous,” Godfrey said. “We all just really have a lot of fun together.”
They encourage seniors to stay fit through golf, swimming, tennis, cycling, pickleball or any other sport that provides
camaraderie and exercise. The Idaho Senior Games is a good way to get involved and meet like-minded new friends.
Brotnov also competes in the National Veterans Golden Age Games, which is open to any military veterans aged 55 or older. Veterans can compete in a wide variety of events, from bowling to badminton, regardless of their athletic abilities. The
next competition is in Salt Lake City in 2024.
“We have a lot of veterans here, and they may not know about this opportunity,” he said.
Brotnov, who moved 28 times in his 57 years of marriage, was born at home in rural Idaho. A doctor from Grangeville came to the house, he said.
His father was a preacher who started a
Baptist church in Kamiah, and Brotnov is an elder at Emmanuel Baptist in Lewiston. In addition to his military service and extensive engineering career, he has taught at West Point, worked as an investment adviser and earned a master’s degree in divinity.
“Now I’m retired and just play with my own portfolios,” he said. “We like Lewiston. We don’t
have high humidity, tornadoes or earthquakes, and we like the people here. My wife graduated from Lewiston High School 60 years ago.”
Brotnov’s tips for seniors who want to get involved include a visit to Sunset Park, if you’re interested in pickleball. Almost 200 members play there on a regular basis.
“I’ve been doing it for five years, and I’ve never found anyone angry or disagreeable,” he said.
Godfrey, who has a Ph.D. in agricultural economics, worked in the agricultural field and owned Will Godfrey Fly Fishing Centers in Idaho. He was an international fly fishing outfitter, with trips that extended from the Arctic to the tip of South America.
“I’ve been all over the world fly fishing,” he said. “I don’t do that anymore, but we always spend a week to 10 days on the North Fork. My wife is a great fly fisher.”
