Robin Claunch’s family is having a memorial service for her father on Saturday October 17th at 11:00 at the Episcopal Church in American Falls. There will be a luncheon following the services. If anyone would like to help out with providing food for the luncheon, they are serving chili and soup. Side dishes and desserts are the most needed food items.
If you desire to provide food and will not be attending the services, your food items can be left at the school Friday afternoon and will be picked up and taken to American Falls Saturday Morning. Food can also be taken to Michele Hayden, Debbie Curry, or Cheri Evans.

Letter from Dan Nuckols
Dear Jamie Evans,
What a joy it was to talk with you this morning. I can’t tell you how much it means to me to remain a part of Arbon Valley and have “The Nuckols” place still in conversation. I do so love that valley and the time I spent going to school there 6th – 8th grade…. seems like only yesterday. Â Jerre was the first one to ever lay a punch on my jaw…. I can’t remember why, but he jumped in the air and connected a good one. Â Some things a fella just never forgets.
Please add me and my wife, Karen, into the “walk” status of the fun run as spiritual apparitions. We will be there as such. Â Best of luck to all in acquiring new payground equipment.
Please give my love to the valley,
Dan Nuckols
