JOYCE HARRIS
It is with great sadness we report the recent passing of SGS member Joyce Harris. She passed away suddenly last month in Benson, Arizona. According to member Pat Ness, “Joyce was very enthusiastic about genealogy and her family history research”.

DEADWOOD CEMETERY PROJECT
SGS Treasurer Pat Rongey who is involved with the Deadwood Cemetery revitalization project, reports the group received a grant from Western Lane Community Foundation for software and computer equipment. The group has mapped the graves, continues to do grounds improvements and will begin replacing missing and temporary grave markers. They invite the public to a Memorial Day – Heritage Day event with ‘Pioneer’ actors, historic displays and demonstrations.
