				<content:encoded><![CDATA[Richard Eldon Arthur, 88, of Sweet Home, passed away on October 20, 2026. He was born on December 23, 1937 to Ernest and Blanche (Trento) Arthur in Bend, Oregon.

He moved with his family to Sweet Home in 1946 and graduated from Sweet Home High School in1956. He served in the US Army in 1961 and 1962 where he spent most of his time driving freight trucks in France. In 1968, while driving a logging truck in Southeast Alaska, he met his future wife, Sharon Tyler. They were married on October 24, 1970, in Sweet Home. They spent their first winter in Canyon City, Oregon, before moving to Petersburg, Alaska, the following spring. They stayed a total of 16 years in Alaska (Zarembo Island, Woodpecker Cove, Glennallen, and Kake), mostly in logging camps. In 1987, the family, which now included Amy, Rick, and Adam, moved back to Sweet Home where he continued driving a logging truck. 

In Alaska, Richard loved to hunt moose and goats, fish, scuba dive, and pan for gold. After moving back to Sweet Home, he got a few beef cattle and a couple of horses. He enjoyed trail riding and haying in the summer. He spent many hours keeping his old tractors and haying equipment running. He especially loved being with his family and researching his ancestry. 

Richard is survived by his wife Sharon; his children Amy (Neal) Philipsen, Rick (Janelle) Arthur, and Adam Arthur; 6 grandchildren, 1 great grandson, and many nieces and nephews. Richard was preceded in death by his parents, his sister Juanita, and his brothers Bud and Jim.

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[Dean Curtis Robbins, 79, of Shedd, passed away on Tuesday, October 20, 2026. 
He was born on February 6, 1947 to John and Glennadean Robbins in Portland, Oregon. 

He spent most of his childhood in Woodburn, OR. Dean was very active as a child spending most of his time outdoors and getting into mischief on the farm. He loved playing sports, driving his car a little too fast and enjoyed basketball, baseball, and football in high school.

Following graduation, Dean spent two years serving as a missionary for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in the British South mission. Upon returning home from his mission, he attended BYU where he met the love of his life, Rosalind Davis. Dean and Rosalind married September 6, 1969 in the Oakland California Temple. During their 57 years of marriage, they built a life centered on faith and family. Together they raised six children; Dawn, Deyce, Deena, Kelly, Kaysha and Stephen.

After graduation with a degree in Industrial Arts Education, and finding a job as a crafts (woodshop) teacher at a Jr. High school, Dean quickly learned that teaching high schoolers was not for him. He went on to become an electrician and was very successful in that career. 

Dean loved fishing, cars, sports and woodworking. You could often find him at his children’s sports events, or in his garage working on his latest project. He loved to rig up inventive contraptions and could do anything with a roll of duct tape. He was meticulous in his woodworking and built his own fishing boat. He then went on to build the home that the family lived in for many, many years. 

He was a quiet man who would often find sitting and listening to the conversations around him. But he could go from silently listening to talking you ear off if the right subject came up.

Dean was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis in 1997 and spent many years fighting that battle. He endured more than anyone should have to endure.

He was a faithful member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and served many different capacities over the years. He had a strong testimony of his Savior.

Dean is survived by his wife, Rosalind Robbins; their children, Dawn Jones (Jon), Deyce Peterson (Garrick), Deena Ditto (Brent), Kelly, Kaysha Burgess (Dustin) and Stephen Robbins (Oksana), 17 grandchildren and his sister Susan Schlack.

A memorial service will be 10:30 am Saturday, November 7th at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints meeting house, located at 1111 North Main St. Brownsville. Followed by a private family graveside service. Sweet Home Funeral Chapel is handling arrangements. www.sweethomefuneral.com.

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[Mason Mathew Flores, beloved son, brother, grandson, nephew, cousin, and friend, passed away on October 5, 2026, on his 16th birthday. Mason was Born on October 5, 2010, and although his life was far too short, he brought love, laughter, and countless cherished memories to the lives of those who were fortunate enough to know him. 

Mason had a passion for sports and the outdoors. He enjoyed playing basketball, football, and baseball. He especially loved spending time fishing. He also enjoyed the fun and friendly competition of yard games, including ladder toss and cornhole. 

Mason had a way of turning ordinary moments into memories that will be treasured for years to come.

Mason was known for his love of shoes. A true “shoe junkie,” he took pride in his collection and always appreciated a great pair of shoes. It was one of the many things that made him uniquely Mason.

He is survived by his mother, Jenna Anderson; father and stepmother, Daniel and Megan Flores; stepsister, Rylie Noonchester; brothers: Avery and Elijah Flores; maternal grandmother, Bev Hay; paternal grandmother, Linda Flores; aunt, Leslie Anderson; uncle, Zack Graber; aunt and uncle, Brandi and Jody Williamson; aunt and uncle, Becca and Dan Wilson; cousins: Justin and Emma Graber, Gracie Hamilton, Allie Wilson, and Colton Pickett; along with extended family and many dear friends. He was preceded in death by his maternal grandfather, Jerry Hay; paternal grandfather, Dan Flores.

Mason’s absence leaves an unimaginable emptiness in the hearts of those who loved him. Sixteen years was not nearly enough time, but within those years he created a lifetime of memories that will never be forgotten. His family will forever remember the joy he brought into their lives, the things he loves, the laughter he shared, and the moments that made him who he was. 

Though we cannot hold him in our arms, Mason will forever remain in the hearts of his family and everyone who loved him. His life will continue through the stories we tell, the memories we cherish, and the love that will never fade. He was deeply loved, is profoundly missed, and will be forever remembered. 

Rest peacefully, Mason. You will be loved for all the days to come. 

Celebration of Life will be 11:00 am, Saturday, October 17th at Sweet Home Husky Field Stadium. 
Please bring a favorite photo of Mason to share with Mason’s family. There will be a board set up to attach the photos to. If you do not have a printed photo, please email one to LLM8HUSKY@gmail.com.
