| 752 | | Thomas Scott A Tragedy The closing hours of Good Friday were marked with as sad an occurrence as has been recorded in Almonte in many years ? the accidental death of Mr Thomas Edward Scott. He was a son of Mr W.H. Scott of New England and a boy well known an well liked in town. He was just beginning to develop and gave every promise of making a fine athlete. It seems hard to realize that one so full of the vigour of life should be so suddenly called away. He was alighting from a freight at the station about eight o'clock Friday evening when in some manner he slipped and fell under the wheels. His right leg was completely severed. Medical help was quickly on hand, and he was removed to the hospital, but the loss of blood and shock had been too much and the power we call life departed Saturday evening. He was sixteen years of age. The funeral on Monday was very large. Among the floral tributes were: Wreath from the Victoria hockey team, wreath from the High School hockey team, wreath from the Knitters' hockey team and a pillow from his chums. --The Almonte Gazette, Almonte, Ontario, April 16, 1909 front page | |

| 771 |  | Two Children Die in Fire on Quebec Farm --The Winnipeg Evening Tribune, Winnipeg, Manitoba, January 30, 1931 | |
| 772 |  | Two Children Die of Burns in Farm Fire Two Children Die of Burns in Farm Fire Varda Campbell, Aged One, and Gerald, Aged Two, Victims at Thurso Explosion of coal oil poured into a stove to hasten the fire resulted in the deaths of two children in the farmouse of Donald E. Campbell at The lower", seven miles north of Thurso yesterday, Verda Campbell, his one-year-old daughter, died in the Civic Hospital early today, while Gerald Campbell, aged two, died on the way to the train from the farm house. According to Miss Ethel MacKenzie, 6 Fifth avenue, a step-daughter of Mr. Campbell, the latter wanted to light the fire in the stove in the kitchen of he farm house. He decided to put some coal oil on the coal to quicken the blaze. Thought Fire Was Out Miss MacKenzie said Mr. Campbell poured some oil on the supposedly dead coals, but apparently one of the pieces of coal was hot enough to ignite the liquid. There was an instant explosion. One-year-old Verda was sitting in her high chair beside the stove and Gerald was playing on the floor. With the explosion of the oil fumes, the curtains on the windows took fire. Mr. Campbell tried to extinguish the blaze with oats and succeeded in smothering it. Articles in the room caught fire as well. Misa MacKenzie related to The Journal, and the light clothing of the two children was ignited. In his frantic efforts to beat out the fire in the room and to help the screaming babies, Mr. Campbell's arms and legs were terribly burned. No one else was at home at the time. The other members of the family, Mrs. Campbell and an 18-year-old son, Gordon, were in Thurso shopping, a daughter, Muriel, and another son, Arthur, aged eight, were at school. They did not discover the disaster until after they had returned from the town and school. Sent to Hospital. Difficulty was experienced in obtaining a physician, as the farm-house is isolated. Finally, Dr. Poliquin was located near Thurso. He gave first aid to the three injured and ordered the children removed to a hospital. While the father remained at home under treatment of Dr. Poliquin, Mrs. Campbell took the two babies in a sleigh driven by the eldest son and started for Thurso. Gerald died before they reached Thurso. The mother and Verda continued on to the city, where Verda died in the Civic Hospital early today The body of the child was removed to Woodburn's undertaking parlors.

| 786 | | Vernon Rogers Vernon Joseph Rogers, Sr. passed away on Dec. 8, 2004, at the Oregon Veterans Home in The Dalles. He was 81 years old. Vern's parents, Jarret Rogers and Adda Belle (Anderson) Rogers were married in Heppner, Ore., on Dec. 3, 1904. Their oldest child, Frank Edward, was born in 1906 in Condon, Ore., before the family moved to the Hood River, Ore., area in 1913. Vern's two sisters were born in Hood River; Rita Margaret in 1915 and Zella Mae in 1917. Vernon Joseph was the youngest, and was also born in Hood River, on Sept. 27, 1923. Vernon grew up in the Hood River, Odell and Dee area, and attended school in Hood River. He went into the Army Air Corps in November 1942, two months after his brother Frank joined. As a Top Turret Gunner in a heavy bombardment crew, Technical Sergeant Rogers participated in 33 operational missions over enemy-occupied Europe while with his unit, the 8th Air Force, 95th Bombardment group, 336th Sq. He was awarded the Air Medal, 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th Oak Leaf Cluster, and was recommended for the Distinguished Flying Cross. According to his mother's journal, there was a particularly difficult few days for the family and community when they were erroneously notified that Vern was "missing in action." He was honorably discharged in September 1945. Returning to the Hood River area, Vernon met Betty Lou Bostwick, and they were married in February 1947, at the Riverside Community Church. They initially lived in the Hood River and Dee area, later moving to Portland, and several years later moving to the Eagle Creek, Ore., area. They had four children: Vernon Joseph, Jr., Craig Jarret, David Lyle, and Joan Marie. Vern and Betty were married over 20 years, but were divorced in 1967. Hardworking and industrious, throughout the years Vern held a variety of occupations - if need be, working two or three jobs simultaneously to make ends meet. Occupations included working at the lumber mill in Dee, teaming daily with wife Betty to deliver The Oregonian to Dee and Odell residents, at the aluminum plant in Troutdale, as a warehouseman at United Grocers, and for years operated his own farm in the Eagle Creek-Dover area. After retiring from United Grocers, for a time he owned and operated a commercial fishing boat out of Brookings, Ore. He moved to Nehalem, Ore., spending many happy years semiretired there. Vern grew up fishing and hunting. He was also an accomplished musician with a very good singing voice. Having been taught to play several instruments as a youngster, his favorite became the guitar. For a very short time, he played as part of a band in the Columbia Gorge area, but later played for many years at family sing-a-longs. He developed a lifelong habit of daily Bible scripture reading. He became quite skilled at cooking, and loved to cook for others. Later in his life, his hobbies were simple - fishing and hunting, cooking and family. In 1998, after beginning to experience health problems, he moved to Spray, Ore., to be near his daughter, Joan. In September 2004, after increasing health concerns, Vern moved into the Oregon Veterans Home in The Dalles. Early in the morning on Dec, 8, 2004, he suffered a stroke, and that evening he passed away. He was preceded in death by his parents, brother Frank and sisters Rita and Zella, and by two very special canine companions: "Lucky" and "Rocky." He is survived by: sons Vernon Rogers, Jr., Craig Rogers, David Rogers, daughter Joan Field, and former wife Betty; numerous other family members, grandchildren and great-grandchildren, and many, many good friends. A memorial service will be on Dec. 17 at 11 a.m., at the Anderson Funeral Home and Tribute Center, 1401 Belmont Road, Hood River. Vernon will be laid to rest near his family at Idlewild Cemetery, Hood River. Memorial remembrances may be sent to: The Mighty Eighth Air Force Museum, c/o Anderson's Tribute Center, 1401 Belmont, Hood River, OR 97031. | |

She fought cancer the way she lived her life with all of her strength and determination. Eileen was sustained throughout her life by her deep faith in God. Eileen was born March 8th, 1926 in Tillamook, Oregon to Rev. B. Ross and Ruth Evans. She began her schooling there and in 1934 the family moved to Corbett, Oregon where she attended Corbett Grade School. She later spent a year in Eugene, Oregon until the family moved to Hood River in 1936. Eileen graduated from Hood River High School in 1944. After graduation she was employed at the United Telephone Company of Hood River. Eileen was married to George E. Bostwick September 9, 1946. George had been Eileen's High School sweetheart and recently returned from serving in the Navy during WWII. Eileen and George had two children, Tom Bostwick of Hood River and Annette Owen of Independence, Missouri. After Tom was born Eileen and George moved to Sweet Home, Oregon for several years where George was employed in the lumber business. They returned to Hood River and bought a home on Belmont Drive. After building a new home on the same Belmont property they adopted a sister for Tom. Annett Bostwick Owen. George was employed with the United Postal Service until he retired. Eileen and George were longtime members of the Valley Christian Church where they were very active in the church. Later they joined the Odell Baptist Church and Eileen became the church organist and were very active members. They later transferred to the Tucker Road Baptist Church where Eileen became the organist there. They were both very active in the church until George's death in 2004.
