Mark Joseph Trenery 1974 - 2017


Laketown,  Utah.  Born in Seoul Korea on October 25, 1974. He lived in Korea until the age of three when he was adopted by Joe and Daria Trenery. They raised him in Ferron, Utah. He graduated from Ferron High School as Class President and then continued to go on to college in Price at the College of Eastern Utah as Class Vice President. He earned his Associate of Science.

He met his wife Terra while working in Salt Lake City at Northwest Toxicology. They soon got married March 14, 1998 and had 4 incredibly beautiful children. Hunter 18, Kasin, 16, Amiya, 14, and Malia 11. Marc was a fun loving man who loved his children. His whole world was watching his kids grow and play sports and watch them do any activity they loved.

Marc loved his wife, family and extended family and was always the life of the party. He loved all of his nieces and nephews like they were his own. We went on many family trips with all of them and he always made the best of them. He also worked for Exxon Mobile and loved the men he worked with. Everyone Marc came in contact with instantly loved him because of his infectious, funny, witty personality. He was nicknamed Treat Boy because he was always buying and surprising everyone and anyone with treats, food and candy.

Marc's wife and kids will miss his exciting personality every day. We will even miss him coming home from graveyard shift in the mornings and driving all of us nuts lol.

We want to thank the Sheriff's department. and the ambulance crew for all of their work at this hard time. We also would like to thank Daren and Tricia Wallentine and all of their family for their support and help at the Trenery household. And thanks to all those who stopped by or dropped off food to our family.

He is proceeded in death by Ralph Walker (Grandpa), Daria, (Mother), and Cassandra,(niece)

The family has asked for contributions at www.gofundme.com/MarcandTerra. Condolences and memories may be shared with the family at www.allenmortuaries.net

Good Stuff

Son of the Black Sword

By John Brown, The Man


I just finished reading Larry Correia’s Son of the Black Sword, and enjoyed it immensely.

It takes memes from King Arthur’s sword, Moses, the Shaolin monks, special operations forces, ancient India, prophets, and freedom and mixes them into an epic fantasy that’s simply tremendous.
It has all the action and entertainment you expect from a Correia production. There are monsters. There are battles and wonderful scenes of sword fighting. There are magic and wizards, but it’s not the magic and wizards you’ve seen before (magic from demon body parts?!) And unlike many fantasies, which revolve around the magic—discovering how it works and some chosen person growing in its power—this story revolves around matters of justice and mercy and law and truth.
This isn’t a story about magic. It’s a story about far more.

The main character, Ashok, is not just a Lord Protector, one trained in battle to kill demons and administer death to those who break the law, he’s the most fearsome of them all. And the most pure in his devotion to the law. There’s just one problem—he finds out that he himself is a terrible affront to the law.

Discovering why that is and how it occurred is part of the enjoyment, so I won’t give it away. But along with that and all the action, you’ll be transported to a new world based on the old Indian caste system, but with a number of twists. You’ll encounter the court intrigue found in so many fantasies. But probably what was most delicious to me was a central mystery shrouded in the ancient past and a whole cast of wonderful characters. There’s Ashok, but we also get a courageous librarian/legal assistant, a tough female boat captain, a funny black market smuggler, and a veteran soldier who wants to restore the honor that was unjustly taken from him.

As a reader, I was delighted. As an author, I found many things to admire (and some to be envious of), including the fact that when you’re in the point of view of a character, you’re with that character, caring about what they care about and seeing the world through their eyes.

Son of the Black Sword is a book chock full of delights. If you like fantasy and action, I think you’ll love it. As for me, I can’t wait for the second in the series.
