Oregon Parks and Recreation

Department is offering grants

the related design elements of

monuments for veterans or

earlier wars, such as World

War I.

GRAY—Richard Gray, 89,

passed away peacefully Nov. 2,

2015, surrounded by his fami-

ly.

Dick was born March 12,

1926, in Oretown, Ore., to

Floyd and Gladys Gray. The

family moved around a lot, so

Dick attended many schools

including Mapleton, Siuslaw

and Minerva, up the North

Fork. He joined the Navy at the

age of 17, attending Radio

School at Texas A&M.

Dick won the heart of

Evelyn Etzel, who “didn’t like

that boy very much” growing

up, and they married Nov. 9,

1946. Together they raised

seven children and one grand-

child. They moved to Florence

in 1952, when Dick worked at

various sawmills around the

area. He was a supervisor at

Davidson’s when he retired in

1988. His children remember

him as the tallest and strongest

man in the world, the protector

of the family.

His sons will enjoy many

great memories of going hunt-

ing and fishing with Dad.

In his retirement, Dick

enjoyed golfing with his broth-

ers and mushroom hunting. In

his later years, the joy of his

life was his children, his grand-

children and his weekly poker

games at the Elks, where he

was a life member.

Dick was known for his

great smile, belly laugh and his

willingness to help his family

when they needed him. He was

the quintessential storyteller,

but not a slave to the facts.

He was preceded in death by

his parents; his sister, Betty

Lou Seifken; his brother,

Harley Gray; and his daughter

Cynthia.

He is survived by his wife,

Evelyn; his daughters: Debbie

Peterson and Teresa Bartlett;

sons: Jim, Matt, Dan, Tom and

grandson, Jeff; 19 other grand-

children and 21 great-grand-

children.

A private celebration of life

is planned for the summer.

SOKOLOSKI—Nancy B.

Sokoloski, 79, of Jacksonville,

Fla., formerly of Florence,

passed away Oct. 5, 2015, after

a long illness of 2-1/2 years.

She was born Dec. 7, 1935,

to Bruce Bateman, Sr., and

Carlina Gonzalez Bateman in

Panama Canal Zone Republic

of Panama. She was previously

married to William Johnson of

Whor, W.V. (1956-1959), and

Walter Sokoloski, in Calif.

( 1 9 7 1 -

1976).

N a n c y

held vari-

ous jobs

i n c l u d i n g

working for

the U.S.

S t a t e

Department

working at

Embassies

in Uruguay, India, Libya and

Ecuador. While in Ecuador, she

met and married Walter

Sokoloski of Ohio.

Nancy also spent time work-

ing for the U.S. Department of

Energy in both Houston, Texas,

and Las Vegas, Nev. She retired

from the U.S. Federal govern-

ment in 1983. She did work at

other various jobs until full

retirement in 2011. She also

lived in Green Cove Springs,

Fla., and Florence.

Nancy is survived by daugh-

ter, Kristy L. Sokoloski of

Jacksonville, Fla.; her brother

Bruce Bateman, Jr (Diane), and

their children: Bruce Bateman

III (Tammy) and sons Zachary

and Jacob of Orlando, Fla.; and

Caroline Bateman Sudhoff

(John) of Jacksonville, Fla.;

nephew Kevin Bateman

(Mickie), and sons Christopher

(Sarah), Joshua and Ryan;

niece Cassie Bateman-Organ

(Paul) and son Justin of Okla.;

numerous cousins; and her aunt

Fulvia Merrell of Panama.

She was preceded in death

by her father, Bruce Bateman

(1973); her mother Carlina G.

Bateman (2000); her brother

Lewis Whitfield Bateman

(1977); her grandmother

Marcelina Murillo (1975); and

youngest brother John

Bateman (2011).

Funeral services were held

Oct. 17 at the Kingdom Hall of

Jehovah’s Witnesses in

Jacksonville, Fla.

Anyone wishing to make a

contribution or donation in

honor of Nancy’s memory can

make them to the American

Music Therapy Association or

The family would like to

tahnk the nursing staff and doc-

tors at Orange Park Medical

care of her.
