Rich County 4-H had an exciting 2021 year! At the Achievement Night held Nov. 1st Jennifer Casillas from Garden City was named 4-H Leader of the year. Jennifer puts her whole heart into everything she is involved in, from her family, to her day care, to 4-H and the quiet, sweet things she does for others. Congratulations Jennifer.
4-H Member of the Year is Tanner Nelson from the 4-H Family
of the year Brian and Tiffany Webb Nelson from Laketown. This awesome family (with
5 boys ) keeps everyone going to activities.
The Craig Hoffman Memorial Volunteer Award was given to
Kalon Downing and the Premier Exhibitor was Sage Bradshaw.
The State Horse Show Exhibitor is Sarah Wamsley. Other State
Fair Exhibitors: Darcy Bradshaw; Dominique Casillas; Emmalee Casillas; Madison
Moldenhauer; Carson Nelson; Whitley Payne; Sarah Wamsley; and Kasey Wilson.
Out of the 44 Belt buckles awarded, the Bear Country Club
raised the money for 30 buckles at $100 each. A big thank you to the sponsors
of the kids efforts to improve their Head, Heart, and Hands the 4-H way.
We have been asked to supply as many quilts as possible for Afghan refugees. They have nothing and are very appreciative of receiving these quilts.
Instead of only "quilting" on Tuesdays, we will also
meet on Thursdays until Christmas.
We call it quilting, but it is not actually quilting. It
is not even tying. You take two stitches in one place. It is so
easy that everyone can do it.
It takes place above the library from 1:00 to 3:00. There
is an elevator for anyone who does not want to take the stairs.
It is also a lot of fun. We hope to see you there.

Marcia was born on April 13, 1939, in Logan, Utah, the first born of Ira Lynn Petersen and Ione Allen. Her family moved to Soda Springs, Idaho when she was 11. She was the daughter of a finish carpenter and, like her father, she brought finish to each and every endeavor she undertook. It was not enough for something she made to be just good, it had to have the finishing touches to make it beautiful and reflect the love with which it was made. Marcia continually filled the lives and homes of those around her with hand sewn mementos of her love, a practice that started when, as a newlywed when funds were tight and furniture in her new home was non-existent, Dallas instructed her to go out and “buy whatever piece of furniture” she wanted for her home. She returned instead with a Bernina sewing machine and used it, and its progeny, to make all manner of beautiful things: clothing, drapes, theater curtains, pep club and drill team uniforms, quilts and baby blankets.
She enjoyed being involved in community activities, volunteering at the Garden City Library and serving on Garden City’s Zoning and Variance Board. Notwithstanding chronic pain, which slowed her down and made her hurt, she had a beautiful smile that she shared with everyone. She was a beautiful woman, inside and out. A life well lived, a beautiful caring spirit, and a loving family are her most treasured “finished” projects.
Friends may visit with her family from 10:30 – 11:30, December 4, 2021, at the Nelson Funeral Home, 162 E. 400 N. Logan, Utah. A graveside service will follow at approximately 12:30 at the Hyrum City cemetery. The full Obituary can be found at Nelson Funeral Home.

She's still declining a little bit. We have not put her in a
home as of yet. We each take a turn and spend the night at her place and then
my niece is her caregiver during the day for the week days the week days. She
knows something is going on and she knows that we are all really sad. He was at
home when it happened. We wanted him at home and not in the hospital since
there was nothing that they could do for him.
