Jennifer Omdahl and Troy Goos Omdahl to q:tarry Goos Sep-00 0000[ber 8 geanifer Ross Omdahl and Y Michael Goos are engaged arty. Their wedding is sched- to take place on Saturday, raber 8, at the Shelton Civic ter. The bride-to-be is the daughter of Max and Vikki Omdahl of Shel- ton. She graduated from Shelton High School in 2001. Her fianc is the son of Teresa Coos, also of Shelton. He gradu- ated from Shelton High School in 2000. Early graduate is still studying (Continued from page 14.) Her graduate study research pa- per addresses leadership and she plans to have it completed within the year. "If I don't get it finished, that's okay. It's been the journey, that's all. I guess that's life; it's the journey that's worth it." She selected leadership for her research paper because of her back- ground. "I guess, I look at education as being the thing that gives every- body a chance," she says. Someone can accomplish almost anything they want to if they use their edu- cational expertise, she adds. "It just breaks my heart to see kids quit school," she continues. SEWING IS ONE of Betty's big- gest hobbies. As a member of the philanthropic organization Luther- an World Relief through the local chapter at Faith Lutheran Church, she helps sew book bags for school kits the organization ships to sup- port education in Third World countries. In places receiving these school kits, pencils and other ba- sic school supplies are possessions prized by many impoverished stu- dents. Betty finds that knowing her modest contributions are of use is very rewarding. Lutheran World Relief members sew hundreds of quilts and put to- gether other care packages for com- munities sponsored by the organi- zation. "It's really lovely when you think that kids somewhere are get- ting something that they wouldn't have otherwise," she reflects. "I think that's the strength of Lu- theran World Relief- is they take their stuff to people. It never gets sold on the black market or left in some warehouse. It goes to people. There are other places who do that. It's just that it makes me feel good to know that these things are go- ing directly to the people who need them." Betty also serves on the church I)evaney, Paysse wed in February Rachel Devaney and Kyle Paysse were married February 17 at the Featherwinds Lodge in Leavenworth. Pastor Steve Olson of Faith Lutheran Church in Shelton performed the double-ring cer- emony. Elena Smith attended as maid of honor, along with bridesmaids Emily Heaton and Hanna Paysse.

"Anybody who's lived that long's had quite a few occurrences during their lives," she says. Among the transtbrmations she's witnessed over the years have been traveling to Olympia over the water on the stern-wheeler, Sol Simpson, instead of driving. Her memories also date back to when the railroad tracks leading into Shelton were under construction. The construc- tion crew brought all of the equip- ment ashore near where she lived at the time. She and other children would watch the construction crew and visit the cookhouse, where the cooks would sometimes share their food with them. Turning nine decades won't be the only honor she has to look fbr- ward to, either. She has also been named grand marshal of this year's Mason County Forest Festival Paul Bunyan Parade. Characteristically, Betty reacts modestly to the recog- nition. "THERE ARE SO many people who've done so many things and I don't know if' l'm the worthiest one of all the worthy pebple," she says. "There's so many worthy people. I think, when I look back at all the people who have been honored, that it: is an honor to be selected." When her children were in school, they appeared in the Forest Festival parades with the march- ing band. "You knew how it is when you're younger: Everybody makes floats," she reminisces. "If you aren't involved in floats, why, you're not involved. Everybody makes floats." Betty shared a recipe ibr cake that's so moist, it doesn't need frost- ing.
