SUNNYSIDE - Elmer Lee Satterfield, 81, beloved husband,
father, and grandfather died Thursday, July 28, 2005, peacefully at home in
Sunnyside after a long fight against cancer. Elmer was born September 7, 1923
to Roper Lee and Ersa Margaret (Brown) Satterfield in Palisade, Colorado. He was the youngest of ten children. He never
had a chance to graduate from school so farming was the dearest thing to him
besides family. He loved working with mother earth and could always be found
outside till dark. In 1942,
Elmer came to Washington to visit his brother and met his future wife, Thelma
I. Kinkade, of Mabton. He went into the Navy in 1943 and served in World War
II. On June 19, 1945, he received military leave and married Thelma in Selah.
Later that year he received an honorable discharge. In 1946, the first of his
two children was born, David E., and Karen L. They were his pride and joy.
Elmer and Thelma settled in Mabton and
farmed on Satus for several years. He loved raising mint, hay, corn, potatoes,
sugar beets, and cattle. Elmer was known
for his beautiful, straight rows, and large and
weed-less gardens that grew the best tasting vegetables around. In 1971, Elmer
went to work for the Mabton School District as maintenance man. He later went
to work for the Grandview School District and retired in 1988 as Maintenance
Supervisor.
After retirement, Elmer and Thelma
had time to travel. They spent most of their time traveling to Washington State
Fiddlers Contests and to the best-known fishing holes. Elmer learned how to
play guitar at a young age and enjoyed playing with friends till the wee hours
of the morning. He won many awards and
trophies for best accompanist at various local contests and at the National
level.
After Elmer was diagnosed with
cancer, he wasn't able to go fishing and camping as much so he spent a lot of
his time chewing the fat with various people at the Outpost while having
coffee. Elmer will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him. Elmer is survived by his loving wife
of 60 years, Thelma; two dear children, David Satterfield and wife Margaret of
Richland and Karen Satterfield of Sunnyside; three special granddaughters,
Rene' Martinez and husband Ramon of Palmer, Alaska, Monica Stanton and husband,
Paul of Grandview, and Nanci Shrauner and fiance' Mike Rushman of Pasco; four
darling great-grandchildren; his faithful companion, Mandi, his dog; and
several nieces and nephews. His parents, four brothers, and five sisters,
precede him in death.
Viewing will be Sunday from noon

Lacy Ray Yost, 47, of Lancaster, went to be with our Lord
and Savior on Feb. 8, 2005, after a courageous battle with cancer.
God saw that you were getting
tired,
And a cure was not to be,
So He put His loving arms
around you
And whispered, “Come home
with me.”
With Tearful eyes we watched
you suffer,
And saw you fade away,
Although we loved you dearly,
We could not make you stay.
A golden heart stopped
beating
A determined spirit was at
rest.
God broke our hearts to prove
to us
He only takes the best.”
Lacy was a very proud member of Alcoholics Anonymous for 12
years. He also enjoyed spending time with his family, riding his motorcycle,
and hunting. He is dearly loved and will be missed by all who knew him.
Lacy is survived by his parents, Lester and Jean (Hill)
