Audrey Carol Scoles, 69, Orofino
Audrey Carol Scoles, 69, passed on April 11, 2009, to be with her previously deceased father, mother and sister. Audrey was delivered into this world on the kitchen table, July, 15, 1939; born to Arthur and Opha Vignery of Caldwell. Audrey was a little sister to Betty Harris and brother, Wayne Vignery.
Audrey was raised in Idaho, Oregon and Washington State. If you were lucky enough to have known Audrey, you know she was a special lady that never knew a stranger. She always gave that second chance and was known to frequently invite a person to her home for a holiday meal if she knew they were spending it alone.
It was a testament to her tenacious spirit that she was a multiple cancer survivor of over 30 years. Her family has always felt blessed to enjoy her upbeat spirit and personality these many years.
Audrey's life passions were her family, traveling, camping and reading. She loved Westerns on television and always had one on in the background.
Audrey owned and managed several businesses in Orofino before her retirement due to health reasons. She was well liked by her customers. Audrey was very civic minded and in her own way, supported her home town of Orofino and the people she felt needed help.
Enjoying her friends and family was the primary spark that kept her going and as her health diminished, Audrey was unable to get out and about as often as she liked and was always appreciative to those that were able to take time out of their lives to visit her and was thankful for the special things done for her. Betty Crutcher's visits with her fresh baked bread and cookies probably added several years to her life.
Audrey was preceded in death by her sister, Betty Harris; companion, Douglas Walker; and former husband, Robert Scoles. Audrey is survived by her ex-husband and good friend, Roger Fisk of Orofino; a brother Gerald Wayne Vignery of Bennington, KN; and her four children, Viva Davis of Port Hadlock, WA; Debra Ehlinger of Scottsdale, AZ; Roger Fisk, Jr. of Poulsbo, WA and Carol Anderson of Orofino.
Audrey was blessed with seven grandchildren, two great grandchildren and several nieces and nephews. We, her surviving clan, were blessed to have her as our mother, wife and grandmother. We will forever miss her caring, giving way and her spiritual energy.
Audrey's family would like to thank all the wonderful care-givers, doctors and nurses for their attention and assistance to her. Yours' is sometimes a thankless job that we acknowledge with our grateful appreciation.
Audrey has requested that in lieu of flowers, donations in her memory be made to the Sister Stephanie Wardle Scholarship via the Clearwater Valley Hospital Mission Committee.
A memorial service will be held at 11 a.m. Thursday, April 16, at Pine Hills Funeral Chapel in Orofino. Pine Hills Funeral Chapel is caring for arrangements.

Robert Marvin "Bob" Hansen was born Dec. 26, 1931, in Coeur d'Alene to Peter and Ida Hansen. Bob passed away, Saturday, April 11, 2009, at Pullman Regional Hospital in Pullman, WA due to complications of pneumonia and Parkinson's disease, he was 77.
Bob was the youngest of seven children and his mother died when he was two years old. He spent his youth in Coeur d'Alene and Spokane, WA with family until he moved to Elk River in 1945 to live with his sister and brother-in-law, Pearl and Vern Totten. Bob graduated from Elk River High School in 1951. At Elk River, Bob made life long friends. He also learned to work in the woods.
On June 4, 1952, Bob married Doris Shreffler of Deary, at Moscow. They were married for 57 years. In 1953, Bob was drafted into the Army. He was stationed in Austria and in 1955 was discharged from the Army.
Bob and Doris continued to live in Elk River where Bob began many years of working in the woods. His first job at that time was for Carney Pole. He also worked for J.E. Hall, Buswell Logging, S & M Logging, C&B; Logging, Farley and Son's Logging and Bert Souders Logging when he was forced to retire due to his health. Bob was known by all of his logging friends as "Crazy Horse".

Bob served the City of Deary as a member of the City Council for 5 years and served as Mayor of Deary for 16 years. He was a member of the Deary Fire Department and lifetime member of the Veterans of Foreign Wars.
Bob lived for his family. He loved to watch ball games, boating, dancing with wife, taking trips to the Oregon and Washington coast, and spending time with friends. When his health began to fail, his love for his family remained a priority. He and Doris rarely missed seeing a ball game when a grandchild was playing, whether it was football, basketball or volleyball. He was there to watch and loved every second. Bob was blessed to be able to stay home the past several years, even though his health kept him from being able to enjoy many of his loves in life. It could not have happened if not for the constant help of family and dear friend, Russell Foster. He so enjoyed his trips to the coffee shop with Russell and trips to Spokane for doctor's appointments so he could meet with friends Dick and Roberta Payne.

After the sudden and untimely death of her only son, Dick, Esther sold her home in Riverside and moved to Brookside Landing in 2001.
