We were saddened to hear of the death of Richard (Dick) White who passed away on September 29, 2009 of a brain tumor in Portland. Dick was the boys' counselor during our time at The Dalles High School. He eventually moved to Portland and the Southern Coast areas and took various high school and community college counseling positions. He attended last year's gathering at Beckenridge.

Mr. Jensen passed away on March 17, 2009. You may read his obituaries at these two sites: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Surgery for Mike Elston Mike Elston underwent a kidney removal two weeks ago and is doing well at home.

She was born on 1/25/47 in Rome, Italy to Virgil and Vera Adkins. She graduated from The Dalles High School in 1965. She is survived by her husband, David Kong; a son, David Hess of California; a daughter, Karen Hess of Portland; her sisters Shirley Fischer of Warren, Oregon; Barbara Adkins of Portland; and four grandchildren.

His school was the first to be nationally certified. He is very proud of his efforts and truly enjoys the work. We are pleased that an "old dog can learn new tricks" since not many of us would go through the work that Marnie did to get his certification.
