Gregory L. Quigley, 48, THS graduate
(October 6, 1959 - September 13, 2008)
Greg Quigley, beloved husband, father and friend, was taken from us too soon as he was riding his Harley to Quigley, MT Sept. 13, 2008
Greg was born to Carol and Bob Quigley in Lewiston Oct. 6, 1959. He grew up in Headquarters and graduated from Timberline High School in 1977.
As a young man, Greg loved spending time on the Weippe ranch of his grandparents, Ellis and Bessie Snyder. One of his proudest moments was winning the team roping competition with his grandpa at the Weippe Rodeo in 1980. Greg rode his much-loved horse, Chief.
Greg moved to Lewiston shortly after graduating from high school and got a job at Bruneel Tire. It was during this time that he met the love of his life, Joan. The couple married Jan. 12, 1980, at Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church. Greg and Joan had two beautiful daughters, Alyssa, now 26, and Jenna, 21.
Greg started working in the forest industry in the early 1980s. In 1984, he and his family moved to Rowan Bay, AK, where he worked for Seeley Logging. In 1987, they moved back to Lewiston. Later, he got a job at Potlatch Corp., where he worked the rest of his life.
Greg belonged to the Northwest Timber Workers and lobbied for forest health. He was influential with politicians around the Northwest.
Greg died doing what he loved, riding his Harley. He rode his bike all around the West, including numerous trips to Sturgis, S.D. He loved to find obscure, out-of-the-way places. He would rather spend nights in his tent than at a hotel. He loved the freedom that riding gave him.
Greg was a member of the Crusaders Motorcycle Club, with whom he took many trips. The club's members were his brothers. The group helped gather donations for the food bank and participated in poker runs for the Lewiston Veterans Home.
Greg loved to read all sorts of books. One of his favorite writers was Jack Kerouac, whose books about travel resonated with him. Greg was always there for his daughters. If Alyssa needed a light bulb changed at her house in Twin Falls, Greg would hop on his Harley and be there in a flash. The girls say their dad always had the best advice - he always had the answers.
Greg went out of his way to make his wife feel special. He e-mailed her every day to tell her what he loved about her and how special she is. She lovingly referred to him as "Craig," a nickname her dad had given him.
Greg had a gift for talking to people and making everyone feel wanted and welcome. He had a sharp wit and was a talented storyteller. He was representative of all the colorful characters he grew up with on the Hill.
Greg is survived by his wife, Joan; and daughters, Alyssa of Twin Falls and Jenna of Lewiston; as well as the family dog, Sammie Joan. Greg also leaves behind Grandma Bessie of Lewiston, and parents-in-law, Jerome and Jeanne Schrempp of Lewiston. Sisters-in-law include Barb Baney and husband Don of Lewiston; Nancy Orton and husband Duane of Lewiston; Jill Young and husband John of Glasgow, Scotland; as well as cousin Rachel Johnson and husband Roger of Coeur d'Alene. Survivors also include a brother, Mike Quigley and wife Dawny of Lewiston. Greg's nieces and nephews include Matt and Tara Baney of Lewiston; Nathan Orton of Portland, OR; Marcus Orton of Boise; Elizabeth Young of Glasgow; and Gib, Garner, Denver and Derrick Quigley, all of Lewiston.
He is also survived by several great-aunts and uncles, and many friends.
A celebration of his life will be conducted at 1 p.m. Thursday at Our Lady of Lourdes in Lewiston.
In lieu of flowers, the family suggests memorial donations be made to the Lewiston Veterans Home.

Charles R. Morlan, 78, Dworshak Dam worker
Charles R. (Chuck) Morlan died Friday, Sept. 12, 2008, at his home. He was born Feb. 2, 1930, in Stafford, Kan., to Ralph and Jewell Morlan.
Chuck was born on a farm in Stafford. His family moved from Kansas to California, to eastern Oregon, then on to Portland, OR, finally settling in Moses Lake, WA. He was a Teamster; that was his life's work and he loved it.
He married June Harper in 1953; they later divorced. He married Beverly Weller in July 1986. When asked about his marriages, he would tell you that he was very lucky to have had two good wives; he would also tell you that he had it easy - he went to work, the moms raised the kids, and they had the hardest job of all.
He had an interesting and full life, with lots of adventures. He faced his illness as if it were another adventure and kept his positive outlook to the very end. He had many stories about his life as a kid on the farm. He boxed as a teen, and was a member of the Teamsters Union at the age of 16. He was in the Navy, and visited 17 countries during his lifetime, including a more recent three-month trip to South Africa.
As a Teamster, he worked many job sites, the bigger the better. He worked on most of the dams in our area, including Little Goose, Lower Granite and Dworshak. At the end of his career he worked in Alaska on the pipeline, at the North Slope and Prudhoe Bay, where he drove on ice roads and on the ice of the ocean while helping to build islands in the ocean.
Chuck is survived by three daughters, Carla and Mike Metcalf and Chris and Dave DeWitt, all of Clarkston, WA and Terri and Stewart Sackett of Seven Fields, PA; and a son, Kim and Glenda Morlan of Gardnerville, NV; and many grandkids and great-grandkids.
He was preceded in death by his parents; his brothers, R.L. Morlan and Earl Morlan. He buried two sons, Ralph L. Morlan and Bob Freeman; and his beloved Beverly. Those were the toughest times for him; he loved his family.
A graveside service will be at 3:30 p.m. Tuesday at Vineland cemetery in Clarkston, followed by a potluck dinner at the Clarkston Eagles. Merchant Funeral Home in Clarkston is handling arrangements.
In lieu of flowers, the family suggests donations to the Tri-State Home Health and Hospice of Clarkston.
