Free Firewood Offered in Brian Head Burn Area
InsIder
ESCALANTE - Last Thursday brought another small storm, which, while giving us a few inches of the pretty white stuff to look at in the morning, was all but melted off by mid-day. The Natural Resource Conservation Service snow report shows many of our areas in Wayne & Garfield counties hovering at 25-50% of average snow-to-date for this year. Mack Oetting says in his column this week that, "This Sunday the LDS faithful will be fasting for some moisture all over our area." Something we can all join in on. —Insider
Thanks, Dr. Jake, for Bringing Quality Animal Care Back Home
LYMAN - As many of us have experienced, life has a way of turning one direction when we are headed in another. That’s exactly what happened as Jake Van Dyke completed his veterinary training last year. He had always planned to return to Wayne County to start a veterinary practice after eight years of university training and clinical experience. He envisioned partnering with other veterinarians in the area for a few years while working toward a clinic of his own. But, when a building went on the market, a building that could accommodate an animal clinic, that was the unexpected but perfectly timed turn that led him to start his own private practice as Dr. Jake Van Dyke at the Fremont River Veterinary Clinic in Lyman. Dr. Jake, his local moniker, grew up on a dairy farm in Dry Valley. That meant he spent plenty of time around animals of all sorts. If you

to speak for themselves. That’s why Jake works hard to listen to animal caretakers who are often the first to detect and describe problems. Jake explains that preventative care is extremely important. This includes vaccinations; heartworm, flea, and tick treatments; addressing diarrhea and air-borne diseases; nutrition and herd management; and annual checkups. Not only are these concerns important for the health of animals, they are also important to the health of people since some animal diseases can spread to humans. Dr. Jake

Every morning for Dr. Van Dyke begins with surgery. This includes spays, neuters, and mass removals. The remainder of the day is filled with appointments and emergency calls. Tuesdays and Thursdays he spends in Richfield working with Dr. Utley. Saturdays are filled with ranch calls. It’s hard to imagine this veterinarian has any spare time, but, on occasion, you can still find Jake with his wife Casi and their four children, Konrad, Travis, Gary, and Paityn, camping, four-wheeling, starting young horses, or working several hundred acres of alfalfa. While Dr. Jake focuses on preventive medicine and provides surgical intervention, the list of services available at the Fremont River Veterinary Clinic goes on and on. A new mobile unit helps provide better service during house and farm calls. And Kelbi, their groomer, is ever ready to transform your pooch from good to gorgeous. Any time, day or night, weekday or weekend, just call 435.836.2211. If it’s after hours, just leave a message, and your call will be returned quickly. Thanks from clients are already pouring in.

Utah youth suicide task force demands immediate action

SALT LAKE CITY Utah’s youth suicide task force is demanding immediate action against Utah’s staggeringly high suicide rate. According to Utah’s Public Health Data Source, Utah’s suicide rate is consistently higher than the national rate. Suicide is the leading cause of death for Utahns ages 10–24, and one person is estimated to die by suicide every 14 hours in Utah. The task force — made up of activists, mental health workers and political and religious leaders — gathered at the Utah Capitol Tuesday for a news conference on the issue. At the conference, Sen. Orin Hatch, R-Utah, said youth suicide is one of the most critical issues facing the state. “There is no perfect solution, but there are a lot of things that we can do to save lives, and one of the most important things is to remind these young people, these kids, how much they matter, how much we love them, how much they mean to all of us,” Hatch said. Over the past couple of weeks, the task force looked at evidence-based practices and programs focused on immedi-

So we are going to talk about the pain more and we are going to have these conversations that we think are going to be hard.” Cox said these conversations aren’t as hard as people think and that having them will save lives. Rep. Steve Eliason, RSandy, said the public needs to understand mental illness is just as real of a health issue as a broken bone or asthma. “We don’t blame people for those diseases and we shouldn’t blame people for mental illness,” Eliason said.

Eliason said parents could also reduce their child’s chance of dying by suicide by about 50 percent if they use a trigger cable lock or a gun safe to keep their firearms locked away. “Every child we’ve lost this year in the state of Utah died by a firearm. If it had been secured, we may have had a different outcome,” Eliason said. Gov. Gary Herbert said over 40,000 gun locks have been distributed, which is a step in the right direction. “All these things working together will help. It is a good start, but it is just a start,” Herbert said. Herbert also said LGBTQ individuals are at a higher risk of committing suicide, and it is imperative to reach out to them. “One of the successes of Utah is our ability to come together despite some differences of opinion of maybe politics and policies out there,” Herbert said. “Let’s come together shoulder to shoulder — no credit, no blame.” Taryn Hiatt, Utah’s area director for the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, said she knows the emotional pain that comes with feeling like everyone would be better off without her, but she made it through. “I beg of you right now, if you are thinking of suicide, please find someone you can tell, and tell as many people as you have to until someone takes you serious and connects you to the support you need, because we need you,” Hiatt said.

SALT LAKE CITY USDA Rural Development State Director Randy Parker has announced that in Fiscal Year 2017 USDA invested $29,550,000 in charter schools in rural Utah. “Opportunities for education should be plentiful in both rural and urban areas,” said Parker, “Investments such as these announced today can help schools gain security, financial independence, and free up more of their budgets to support students and staff.” The funding is provided through the Community Facilities Direct Loan Program, which is intended for projects such as schools, libraries, municipal centers, first responder vehicles and equipment, social service buildings, recreational activities, and other community needs. Projects in Utah include loans to five public charter schools serving primarily rural students: Valley Academy in Hurricane, Utah received a $6.9 million loan to purchase the
school’s building, providing a sense of permanence to the school and its students as well as improving their financial position. Soldier Hollow Charter School in Charleston, Utah, received a $3 million loan to secure a new building which will allow the school to expand and be prepared for growth. The new building is located nearby the school’s former location and was originally intended as an equestrian center. It has been redesigned to accommodate the school’s needs. Excelsior Academy in Erda, Utah, received $9.95 million to construct a junior high building adjacent to their current building, which will increase their capacity. Utah Charter Academies received a $5 million loan to purchase a school in Salem, Utah, which was facing discontinuation. The purchase provided security to nearly 500 students. Maria Montessori Academy in North Ogden, Utah,
received a $4.7 million loan to expand their existing campus, providing continuity for students who would like to remain at the school for grades seven through nine. Currently, upper grades are attending classes in portable rooms. USDA Rural Development provides loans and grants to help expand economic opportunities and create jobs in
Wayne and Piute students for excellence in their rounds. The Wayne High School Speech and Debate Club Officers are Kaelee Barton, President, Trena Wilson, Vicepresident and Jaden Blackburn, Secretary and Competition planner extraordinaire. Other members include Tanner Faddis, Tommy Van Dyke, Jessica Jeffery, Arianna Whipple, and C.J. Roderick and from Piute, Charlotte Snyder and Belle Camp. Hikari Ito, Maddee Barton, and Sierra Wilson helped with tournament operations. "It was great to be a part of this event, said Jane Erickson, judge. "They were so articulate and it was amazing to see them tackle a topic with one minute prep time and speak with such poise and knowledge!" Other judges from the community included: Barry Morgenstern, Clark Taylor, Darrell Mensel, Diane Borgeding and Mary BeddenfieldSmith. Wayne High School students are coached by Leigh von der Esch. On to success in March!

Wills, Trusts, and More Drafting Your Own Will or Trust
Page 5
t H e
by JeFFery J. mCkennA In this article I would like to talk a little about doing your own estate planning. When people ask me if they can do their own estate planning, my simple answer is “yes.” There are many wills probated that were prepared by the decedent without professional assistance. Many of these wills are submitted to the court and the estate is administered without problem. Additionally, there are many trusts prepared without professional assistance. Although the degree of error is often higher with the use of a trust, these can also be prepared and administered without professional assistance and without problems. However, there is also a large portion of these documents (both wills and trusts prepared without professional assistance) that do have problems. Often, when there are problems, the problems are significant. I like to compare estate planning to having a baby. Can someone deliver a baby without a trained and experienced professional? The answer is yes. It was done that way for hundreds and thousands of years. However, is there less likelihood of having serious problems if someone with more training and experience is involved in the process? Again, I believe most would agree that the answer is yes.
Like most undertakings, the more training and experience one has planning an estate the greater likelihood that serious complications can be avoided. In deciding whether to do your own estate planning without professional assistance, I believe the question to be asked is how much time are you willing to devote to understanding the process and how much risk are you comfortable taking regarding the disposition of your estate. In writing this article as a professional involved in estate planning, it is not my desire to “create” work for estate planners. Improper estate planning resulting in complications generates much more work and legal fees than proper estate planning and a subsequent, smooth estate administration. It may be that estate planning can be compared to preventive mechanics. You can pay for the tune ups and oil changes now or you can pay more for the repairs later. However, a significant difference is that it is not you but rather your heirs that pay.

I heard recently about a stay-at-home Mom. One evening she went to a PTA meeting and her husband and her oldest daughter got together and decided they would clean up the kitchen for her. They put away all the food, wiped all the counters, washed all the pots and put them away, put the dishes in the dishwasher and ran it. They swept and mopped the floors and then sat down, awaiting her arrival. Two hours later she returned from the meeting, took off her coat, hung it up, walked through the kitchen into the den, grabbed the remote control, and began watching television. They followed her over to her chair and stood by her side. Finally she felt them looking over her shoulder and looked up at them and said, "What?" Her husband said, "The kitchen." "The kitchen. What?" "The kitchen. We cleaned up the kitchen. Didn't you notice? It's sparkling clean. We cleaned it for you." The woman replied, "Yes, I noticed. Thankless job, isn't it?"

But it's always in the way, and after banging my shin on it for the umpteenth time, I asked the staff to please keep it somewhere safe. The next day, I found the ladder neatly collapsed and placed where it couldn't hurt anyone: on the top shelf.

Waterproofing
The telephone solicitor selling basement waterproofing must have thought she'd died and gone to heaven when she got my very patient son on the phone. At the end of her very long sales pitch, she asked, "Do you mind if we send someone out to give you an estimate?" "Not at all," my son said. "When would be a good time?" "As soon as I dig a basement," he replied.

Jeans
Three days of suffering through a nasty virus left me wiped out. But I found a silver lining the very first day I could crawl out of bed. Throwing on a pair of pants, I called out to my husband, "Look! These jeans fit, they finally fit!" "Great," he said. "But they're mine."
Military Chat
During the second Gulf War, I was an Air Force colonel. I routinely flew on different aircraft to familiarize myself with their capabilities. One day I was aboard an intelligence aircraft where each crew member was surrounded by complex gear. A young airman showed me his computer screen. "That's a chat screen, Sir," the airman said. "We use it to relay enemy information to the crew. It's like instant messaging." Nodding, I moved down the line. Flashing on an airman's screen several feet away was this warning: "Heads up! The colonel's on the way!"

O bituaries Ted Chidester PANGUITCH - Ted Henry Chidester, 81, passed away February 24, 2018 in Panguitch. Ted was born, April 27, 1936 to Loris E. and Hilda Orton Chidester in Panguitch, Utah. He was the third of four children. He was always very active in sports and played basketball, baseball and ran track in high school. Ted graduated from Panguitch High School in 1954 then attended C.S.U. (now S.U.U.) on a basketball scholarship. After completing two years he joined the US Air Force. He was stationed at Castle Air Force Base at Merced, CA. for two years. He was transferred to March Air Force Base near Perris, CA. for two years. After completing four years in the Air Force he enrolled at Utah State University. He was very patriotic. While at Utah State he drove city bus and was also a driver for chartered bus tours all over the country. Ted’s first teaching/ coaching job after graduating from USU was at Fielding High School in Paris, ID. He was the assistant basketball and football coach. After one year at Fielding, the position at North Summit High School in Coalville, UT opened and he was hired to be a history teacher, head basketball coach, track coach and assistant football coach. His basketball teams at North Summit finished in the top sixteen every year except the first year. That was when there were only two divisions of teams in the state, the A and the B. North Summit won the B division state championship in 1967. He coached there for 13 years. While there he was named "Coach of the Year" and received an award given by the Utah Basketball Officials in 1975 for "Coaching and Proper Bench Conduct". At the age of 40, Ted decided to go back to college to earn his Master’s Degree. Because he had been a friend with Coach Bob Knight for several years, Coach Knight told him if he would like to go to Indiana University in Bloomington, IN he could work with Bob and the IU Hoosiers basketball team while working on his degree. He was able to do on-the-floor coaching and also recruiting and scouting for IU. He was part of the coaching staff when Indiana University won the NCAA championship in 1976. He has a beautiful championship ring to show for his work with the team. He also received his Master’s Degree. They were there for two years. He was named the head basketball coach at Northern Montana College in Havre, Montana where he served for two years. Ted was then offered the head basketball position at BYU Hawaii. He worked hard to build up the young basketball program. He took his team to the National tournament in Kansas City, MO for the first time in the school’s history. He was there for eight years. They moved back home to Panguitch. Ted became the principal of the middle school and later the principal of Panguitch High School and the basketball coach. As their coach PHS won the state championship in 1990. Their next endeavor was to serve a mission for their church. They were called to serve in Lubbock, Texas. While their Coach Bob Knight gave them tickets for all home football and basketball games. Their mission president gave his approval if they would wear their missionary apparel. After 21 months as missionaries they went to thank Coach Knight for his kindness to them and he invited Ted to come back to Lubbock in the fall and work with the Texas Tech basketball program. He was anxious to return to the basketball scene. He did on- the-floor coaching and served as academic supervisor for the team. He was invited back the next year to do on-the-floor coaching and was the "color man" for the Texas Tech basketball radio broadcasts. They were there for two years. Ted was inducted into the Utah Sports Hall of Fame in 2011 as a "Utah Coach of Merit." Ted is survived by his wife, Shirley; children: Bret (Elizabeth), Julie, Jill, Bart (Julie V), Maria (Tile) Sio; and foster son, James (Geremy) Chidester; 12 grandchildren and 4 great- grandchildren; brother, Arthur; and sister, Lola C. Henrie. He was preceded in death by his parents; brother, Dee L; and great-granddaughter, Emi Addison Chidester. Funeral services will be held on Monday, March 5, 2018 at 12:00 Noon in the Panguitch LDS Stake Center, 550 South 100 West.

fyI PanguItch
by Mack Oetting ~ mackoetting @gmail.com I have just watched the closing of the Winter Olympics in South Korea and I am tired so bear with me. I love track and field in the summer games, but these winter games have really surpassed them big time. From the opening ceremony to the closing, it was great, non-stop entertainment. The facilities were first rate, with great snow coverage at all of the venues and beautiful arenas for the hockey, curling and ice skating events. Watching Shawn White win the gold in the half pipe, snowboarding on his last try was really something. There were young winners, 15 year old figure skater from Russia and a 17 year old American winning our first gold with a great run in snowboarding event. Our women’s Hockey team won the Gold medal, against Canada, who had won the last 4 gold’s at the games. It was in a shootout, after the score remained in a 2-2 tie after an overtime period. The US team scored first followed by Canada who scored the next two. Then a US player tied it up on the last shot. The teams alternated shots with a US player scoring on the first shot and Canadian’s shot was
blocked. The US team has a pair of twins, one scored the tying goal in regulation and her sister made the winning goal in the shootout. The US also won the Curling event and it was the 1st medal in Curling that we ever had. Then there was from Norway, Marit Bjofrgen, who was 38 years old, who won 5 gold medals in cross country skiing, to go along with three other golds and 14 all told from other Olympics. She won the last race, a 30k cross country by over 2 minutes and didn’t seem to even work up a sweat. Norway won the medal count with 39, surpassing the 2008 record held by the US team with 37. The US finished with 4th with 23 medals. From the opening ceremony, that was really something, with a standing ovation for Korea entering the arena, as a united country. As in any sport, the training that goes into these events are really something. However many of these events are really dangerous that requires a lot of nerve to go with it. How many times do you crash doing those flips, landing backwards after being airborne for so long. The closing exercises were just

ESCALANTE - Sheila Woolsey Faulkner, 91, of Escalante, passed away February 26, 2018 in West Jordan, Utah. The wife of the late Robert Faulkner. Services are pending for March 10, 2018 in Escalante, Utah, with burial in the Escalante Cemetery. Further information will be announced by the Magleby Mortuary, Richfield, Salina and Manti.

as impressive as the opening ceremony was, with all kinds of special effects. Part of the Olympics Anthem words were, "all nations unfurl your flag and come join the games in brotherhood." It is too bad these games couldn’t go on forever with this brotherhood thyme. Beijing China will be hosting the 2022 games and if their presentation was any indication they will be special also. Utah has put in for a bid for the 2030 games and many of the facilities already in place they could get it. Japan will be hosting the Summer Games in 2020. Pat and I went down to St. George last week to celebrate our anniversary and to see the Home Tour. This is really a big deal, they expect to have 40,000 visitors to the city for these viewings, many of the motels were full or had jacked up their prices. Well things are really going well in St. George money wise, with many of the 28 homes that were on display going for over a million dollars. 9 to 10,000 square foot homes were the norm, but you can really have some fancy digs if you have the bucks. Pat decided that she is really hap-
py with our old 100 year home here in Panguitch, besides what would we do with an 8 bedroom house? We woke up to a bright sunny Friday morning, but by the afternoon the clouds came in and it started snowing! Yes in St. George. The snow didn’t slow down any of the lookers, they just kept motoring on. We saw about 10 of the 28 homes, it is a fun time and when we get ready to build our next home we got some good ideas. We have three more weeks of winter and we are getting snow at 1” to 4” at a time, as the storms keep rolling through here. SLC has been getting much of snow with over a foot from this last storm, with it they had over 400 fender binders on the freeway. This Sunday the LDS faithful will be fasting for some moisture all over our area. Sorry to hear of the passing of a Ted Chidester. Ted was a Teacher, Principal and Coach. He was an assistant Coach to Indiana’s Billy Knight and their National Championship team. Ted will be missed by all who knew him. His funeral will be this Monday at the Stake Center at 12:00.
