ROVIN' DUSTY DROVER STUFF


Don “Dusty” Maiers

  “Miss” Teresa, her daughters and Steve went back east for the ceremony at Arlington Cemetery for Ed“Paniola” Phillips about the middle of July. They are back now.

  Sad news... I received word about Tim“Durango” McIlvain. He was one of the original members. He made several items that we show proudly. He contributed a lot to our early meetings by keeping a regular pic-pic with “Roper”.

Tim 'DURANGO' McIlvain

Tim moved to Sacramento area last February in an assisted living place and passed away in April this year. His family did not notify us of his passing so we heard of it late. Via Con Dios, old Pal!



ROUNDING-UP

Got a call from Tom “Cowboy” Ratican up in Havala. Not much news but the fires were close to him. They evacuated him for two days but had no trouble. Good!!! All is well.

Erin, Tommy Farrell's daughter, called. Just checking in and bringing us up to date as to her activities. Not a lot happening but good to hear from her.


Happy Trails and Warm Campfires!

“Dusty”
