CORCORAN - Longtime Kings County civic leader, Roscoe H.
Bessey, 94, went home to be with our Lord on Monday, May 29, 2000. Roscoe was
born March 7, 1906, in Codel, Kan., the oldest of 13 children. He moved with
his family, at the age of 11, to Strathmore. Roscoe had a full life surrounded
by many friends and family.
He graduated from Fresno State College, where he was
captain of the undefeated 1930 football team. After obtaining his teaching
credential at the University of California, Berkeley, Roscoe began his career
as coach and teacher at Corcoran High School. He met Bea Burtner who became his
loving wife for 53 wonderful years until her passing. Together they had three
children; Donald Bessey of Hayward; Joan Lusk of McMinnville, Ore.; and Stanley
Bessey, now living in Albuquerque, N.M.
Roscoe is also survived by his dedicated and loving wife of
eight years, the former Mabel McGahan of Hanford; two grandsons, Sterling Lusk
and toddler Adam Roscoe Bessey; and his brothers and sisters, Corky of Walnut
Creek, Ray of Porterville, Ronald of Porterville, Doreen* Landers of Tulsa
Okla., Elaine Frodsham of Oxnard, and Nadine Hardaway of Lebec. He was preceded
in death by his brothers Jay Bessey of Strathmore and Gerald Bessey of
Oroville.
Between outstanding careers as coach, teacher and athletic
director at Corcoran High School, Roscoe farmed and raised dairy cattle for
more than 20 years. After retirement, Roscoe enjoyed his hobby of breeding
Llamas for pets and pack animals.
Roscoe’s entire life was exemplified by a willingness to
serve in his community and give to others. He served as president of the
following organizations: Kings County Teacher’s Association, Kings County Farm
Bureau, Kings County T.B. Association and Corcoran Rotary Club. He served on
the board of directors of the Kings County YMCA, Sequoia Lake YMCA, Tulare Lake
Soil Conservation District, Tulare Lake Drainage District, Consolidated Milk
Producers Association, Dairy Herd Improvement Association, Corcoran Irrigation
District, California Farm Bureau Marketing Association, and High Sierra Stock
Users Association. He was a member of the Beet Growers Association, Kings
County Agriculture Committee, Boswell Scholarship Committee, Kings County Farm
Bureau Sales Yard Committee, Kings County Society and the Llama Growers
Association. He also served at trustee for the Corcoran Unified School District
and the First Methodist Church.
It is no wonder that he was voted Kings County Citizen of
the Year in 1958 and Corcoran Man of the Year in 1977.
Roscoe has been honored many times for his generosity and
giving spirit, but one of his greatest joys has been to be honored by the CHS
basketball team at every home game for the last several years. When the players
and coaches ran onto the court upon being introduced they continued to run up
into the stands to shake Roscoe’s hand and get a word of encouragement.
Roscoe had a passion for exploring the sierra with his
family and friends for weeks at a time on his pack horses and mules. He has
endless tales of his adventures, which started when he packed as a young boy
with little more than a blanket, fishing pole and frying pan. He was
instrumental in starting the High Sierra Stock Users Association.
Roscoe also raised heifers for the Heifer Project, which
helped underdeveloped countries in South America. He and Bea had memories of
sharing a small cargo plane with 40 heifers as they transported them all the
way to Guatemala.
Roscoe’s family and friends are so happy that he was able
to live out his life the way he wanted - working and relaxing on the Bessey
Ranch in the community he loved. He will be dearly missed by all.
A private family graveside service will be at the Corcoran
Cemetery. A memorial service celebrating his life will be at 10 a.m. Saturday at
the Corcoran Methodist Church.
Memorial contributions may be made to the American Cancer
Society or your favorite charity.

Warren
"Rocky" Delose Schreiner, former resident of Sunset Apartments,
passed away unexpectedly on Thursday, March 16, 2000, at Big Sky Care Center.
Cremation has taken place. There
will be no services. Memorials may be
given to the Lewis and Clark Humane Society.
Warren
was born June 24, 1921, in Townsend to Henry and Gertrude (Schindler)
Schreiner.
Warren,
known as Rocky to his friends, led an adventurous life full of mining and
travel on the hunt for the mother lode.
Rocky never grew tired of the quest for the big gold vein and the
possibility of striking it rich one day.
He had many friends with "gold fever" who shared his passion
for mining.
Rocky
gave many the pleasure of his company and talent,
while playing the piano, organ and guitar for all of his friends; he was one of
the best in town. He was quite a
storyteller and could entertain for hours over a cup of coffee. Rocky enjoyed frequenting many Helena area
restaurants and gambled for fun. Many of
you may remember seeing him in his blue Jeep Cherokee driving through town with
his dogs. Rocky loved his dogs, Freddy
and Lucky, and took them everywhere he went.
Rocky
was quite a ladies man, charming the women of Helena and possibly many other
towns. He was a sweet talker with that
ol' cigar hanging out of his mouth. A
man of adventure, he took off on a spontaneous trip to Las Vegas a few years
ago. Last fall he went on his last
mining expedition to Arizona.
Warren
was preceded in death by his parents and is survived by first cousins Bernice
Wiedman of Billings, Peggy Mannix of Port Angeles, Wash., Phyllis Fenner of St.
George, Utah and Wally Schreiner of Columbus.
Rocky
will be greatly missed by many friends.
Although Rocky's quest on earth has ended now, he has indeed struck it
rich, as the streets of Heaven are paved with gold. Rocky you hit the mother lode after all.

Former Petaluma
resident
Born in Medford, Ore., July 29, 1945,
Ms. Webber took her own life Jan. 22, 2000, after a long struggle with
schizophrenia. Her first 20 years were good
and filled with adventure and prospect, but then her life began to crumble.
Like other victims of schizophrenia,
she had to adapt to the extremes of her disease, and was often frustrated and
bewildered by what was happening to her.
Because of the many advances in science over the past decades, however,
her later years were much improved.
She will be remembered for her sunny
and outgoing manner. A 1964 graduate of
Petaluma High School, Ms. Webber lived in Petaluma until 1994, then moved to
Santa Rosa.
She was the daughter of Emma Latta
Webber of Petaluma and the late James Morgan Webber, and the sister of James
Morgan Webber Jr. and Laura Webber Pierce, both of Petaluma, and the late John
Arthur Webber.

Petaluma woman's
body found in
SF Bay
Coast Guard crews found the body of a
Petaluma woman floating in San Francisco Bay on Saturday and believe she
probably jumped off the Golden Gate Bridge.
Crews came across the body of
54-year-old Mary Irene Webber less than a mile southwest of Alcatraz around 2
p.m., said Marin County coroner Gary Erickson.
Employees working on the birdge saw a woman matching Webber's description
on the bridge around 9 a.m., he said.
When they rode out to try and talk to
her, she had disappeared. The bridge was
crowded with tourists and employees, but no one reported seeing anyone jump or
fall, Erickson said.
Investigators have not yet determined a
cause of death, he said.

FIRE DEATHS
OF TEACHER, GIRL
HIT COMMUNITY HARD
BLAZE IN MEIGS COUNTY HOUSE
The welding room at Meigs High School,
normally a bustling place where sparks and words fly, fell silent yesterday as
students grieved the loss of their young teacher.
So close were 16 seniors to Donald Yost
Jr., himself a welding student at their southeastern Ohio school just a few
years ago, that the teen-agers left class and gathered at the home of Yost's
grandparents.
While news of his death stung terribly,
Principal Dennis Eichinger said friends and family were proud -- and not at all
surprised -- that Yost died trying to rescue a child from the nighttime fire
that swallowed his girlfriend's house.
Yost, 21, and the girl, 4-year-old
Jordan Smith, were pronounced dead shortly after 1 a.m. at the scene along Winn
Road in Rutland, about 80 miles southeast of Columbus.
"Being the type of person he was,
that's exactly what he would do -- try to save a little kid," John Hill,
one of his students, said through tears.
"I feel so lucky that I was even
able to have him as a teacher. He wasn't very old, you know, and he was more
like our friend. We just had this connection."
Chief David Davis of the Rutland
Volunteer Fire Department said Yost and his girlfriend, Sarah Pullins, were
sleeping downstairs in the two- story, wood-frame house when Yost awakened to
fire.
"She said they ran upstairs to get
the kids," Davis said. Pullins made her way out with her two young
children, Michael and Ally Davis, who are not related to the fire chief. At the
same time, Yost apparently was trying to get out with Jordan, a friend who was
spending the night.
Pullins "thought he was right
behind her," Davis said. "When she turned around, he wasn't
there."
Pullins ran to a neighbor's house to
call for help. She told firefighters, who Davis said left their homes and
arrived within six minutes, that Yost and Jordan were probably inside.
"We made a couple entries while
the fire was still going, but had no luck," Davis said.
After the fire was extinguished, their
bodies were found near the collapsed stairwell. "I don't know if the smoke
got 'em upstairs, or if they were almost out," Davis said.
Investigators think that the fire was
accidental. Davis said it appears to have started in the living room, possibly
around a propane heater. He said Pullins told investigators there were smoke
detectors in the house, but she does not recall hearing them.
As is often the case in small, rural
counties, several people found themselves connected to the tragedy.
Many of the firefighters knew Yost, who
also was the freshman basketball coach at the high school. Jordan's grandfather
is a contractor working to repair recent flood damage at Birchfield Funeral
Home, which is handling the arrangements for both victims.
"I think we're going to have some
talkin'," Davis said, explaining that saddened volunteers planned a kind
of debriefing session with Meigs County Coroner Douglas Hunter.
Eichinger, the principal, said students
are "deeply affected" by the loss of Yost, a gritty, "hands-on
person who got down with them and did the work."
Hill said he and his classmates likely
will come up with a memorial to the popular teacher. For now, their class
picture -- with Yost proudly among them -- will be displayed with his casket.
"It was his first year, but you
couldn't tell," Hill said. "It was like he'd been a teacher all his
life."
