While growing up
north of Opheim, it was
always homemade bread

a special treat when we got
that rare trip to Grandpa
and Grandma Murr’s
house and Uncle Roy
and Aunt Nona Jimison’s
house (both in Wheeler,
Montana) and munch
on bread that was store-
bought, spread with with
margarine, that was also
a treat, as we always had

Shirley continued from front page
and the uncountable hours of entertainment we gave
each other over the years. There was no such thing
as X-Box or even TV up north for that matter. And
then one day poor ol’ Clint got into the grain shed and
floundered himself. That was the sad ending for ol’ Clint
the Goat. What a way to go, I guess....
And you should have saw that huge garden
Mom always had each and every year. With much
complaining, my sister and I did plenty of weeding, as
that’s how we made our spending money for a trip south
to the Northeast Montana Fair. But that was okay with
me, as it meant staying in Wheeler for a couple of days
and getting in on that store-bought bread, spread with
that pale yellow margarine. It made, in my mind at the
time, the best toast in the whole wide world. Yum, yum!
Boy, did that all change when we moved to the
suburbs of Wheeler in 1976 and Mom didn’t have
time to bake bread any more as she took her job at the
Glasgow Veterinary Clinic. Oh, there was always those
occasional batches of bread, buns and caramel rolls, and
one of my favorites, oatmeal raisin cookies, but since
her retirement from the Glasgow Veterinary Clinic
(now the Valley Vet Clinic) Mom has taken her baking
skills to a whole new level.
My Mother, Shirley Siefert, has yet another keepsake
Northeast Montana Fair Best Overall Culinary Award!
Other awards to get her Best Overall was: Taster’s
Choice Banana/ Zucchini Pan Bread Award; Taster’s
Choice Cookie Award (Sugar Free Cookie Spice Drops
w/ applesauce); and Best of Fair Raised Doughnuts,
which Darcia Schindler said, “They are amazing!”.
Her cake donuts have also came a long way. It was
one warm summer day when she gave them a try (and
I can remember the year, because Dad had just bought
a brand new 1978 Ford pickup, the first new vehicle he
ever owned).
Well, Mom made a HUGE batch of cake donuts
and they were, to put it mildly, a dud. I tried to be nice
and said, “Mmmm, these are good and crunchy.”
Mom told my sister and me to haul them out to the
garbage barrel. On the way to the garbage barrel, there
were a couple of seagulls flying overhead, so I took a
couple of those cake donuts out of the bag and whipped
them up in the air. No sooner did they hit the ground,
and those seagulls swooped down and snatched them
up in a hurry.
After gobbling them down, they took flight again
and let out a couple of squawks. In no time, there were
a half a dozen seagulls, so me & sis decided to oblige
to their begging. Another half a dozen donuts out of
the bag, six satisfied seagulls. They let out a squawk
and pretty soon another dozen or so seagulls appeared
out of nowhere. We still had lots and lots
of donuts in the bag, so we started flinging them. Before
you know it there must have been at least a hundred
seagulls flying overhead! So we emptied that bag and
were having a blast watch those turd birds fight over the
remaining donuts.
But alas, we should have done what Mom had told
us to do, and that was to throw those donuts in the
garbage barrel as Dad’s brand new mint green Ford got
shelled by seagull sh... poop — it was a messy situation!
Needless to say, Dad was not happy when he got home.
Boy, did I get side-tracked to say how proud I am of
my Mom Shirley Siefert, not just because of her success
at the fair over the past several years, especially since her
retirement, but how much of her baked items she shares
with family and friends on a year-round basis: Burger
Nights at the VFW, helping out a funeral with a hot dish
and a fresh batch of buns — yes, we are blessed to get
buns, bread and other tasty treats here at BS Cental, and
the list goes on.
Looking back at my childhood days growing up
a mile from the Canadian border, I was very fortunate
to have Mom’s home cooking and her baked bread on
a daily basis and feel rather ashamed that I thought I
liked boughten bread over homemade bread and hand-
churned butter.
But I’ve learned a lot since those days, such as that
old saying, “Don’t look a gift horse in the mouth.”
Well, I think it’s time for a nice slice of Mom’s bread
that she delivered to us here at BS Central on Tuesday.
I don’t have hand-churned butter to spread on it, store-
bought butter will just have to do. I might even spread
some of her home-made pear jam on it.
Getting in a little Uncle Leo jab, if only she would
start slicing it for us... ~ KJS

WOW!
In photography, timing is usually everything — well, sometimes
a bit of luck plays into things — and it appears that Claire Bergtoll
has both going for her. She took Best of Fair - Portrait 1 person,

incredible Landscape enlargement “Frost on the Frenchman”.
If you didn’t mosey through the photography barn, you missed

Glasgow has been selected!
The Glasgow Area Chamber of Commerce &
Agriculture is so pleased to announce that Glasgow has
been selected to participate in the 2022 Reimagining
Rural Virtual Gathering that is designed to bring some
fresh ideas about how to create a vibrant future for rural
communities across Montana. It has been a challenging
year and organizers hope to help local volunteers and
leaders reset and reimagine a bright future for their
community by bringing them together to hear some
positive research and success stories about rural
communities.
Reimagining Rural Virtual Gathering was created
for local volunteers and leaders who are passionate
about creating vibrant, robust rural places, growing
local capacity, learning about new ideas, connecting
with others, and leading local change.
“We are excited to bring these great stories
about successful, vibrant rural communities to small
towns across the state” said Tara Mastel, Community
Development Program Leader for Montana State
University Extension. “We will share new research about
why people are moving to rural Montana communities
as well as inspiring and positive stories of successful
rural community projects. We hope it helps folks get
excited about what is possible for their small town.”
Reimagining Rural Virtual Gathering includes
three statewide sessions, broadcast virtually to groups of
local leaders gathered in-person in rural communities
across the state. Sessions begin with talks by rural
experts or local leaders of successful rural community
projects. Following the talks, people gathered locally
will have the chance to discuss the ideas shared with the
help of a local, trained facilitator.
The first night speaker, Tara Mastel of Montana
State University Extension, will share Montana’s own
research on the rural “brain gain”, including who
is moving to rural Montana communities and why.
The second night includes small-town experts Becky
McCray and Deb Brown on their “Idea Friendly
Method” for getting things done in small towns
without all the typical red tape. The final session
will feature a small-town Montana success story to
inspire your community members to imagine what is
possible.
Reimagining Rural is made possible through
support from MSU Extension and the Montana
Community Foundation. The event is hosted locally
by the Glasgow Area Chamber of Commerce and
Agriculture.
The sessions are set for September 8th and 22nd
and October 6th. Each session will be held from 6-8
PM. Community members interested in joining this
great statewide discussion can participate by joining the
Glasgow Chamber at the Cottonwood Inn and Suites.
For more information contact the Glasgow Chamber at
406-228-2222.

During the wedding rehearsal, the groom There’s always something August 20, 2022
approached the pastor who was to do the ceremony new at Robyn’s Nest! Zeiger & Pattison
October 8, 2022
with an unusual offer.
“Look, I’ll give you one hundred dollars if
you’ll change the wedding vows. When you get to
the part where I’m to promise to ‘love, honor, and
obey’ and ‘forsaking all others, be faithful to her
forever,’ I’d appreciate it if you’d just leave all of
that stuff out.”
Then he slipped the pastor a hundred dollar
bill and walked away.
The wedding day arrived. When it came
time for the groom’s vows, the pastor looked the
young man straight in the eye and said, “Will you
promise to prostrate yourself before her, obey her
every command and wish, serve her breakfast in
bed every morning of your life and swear eternally
before God and your lovely wife that you will not
ever even look at another woman, as long as you
both shall live?”
The groom gulped and looked around and
then said in sheepishly tiny voice, “I do......”
After the ceremony, the groom pulled the
pastor aside and hissed, “I can’t believe what you
just put me through, I thought we had a deal!”
The pastor slipped the $100 back into the man’s
hand and whispered, “The bride’s father made me a
much better offer.”

OBITUARY
Monte Eayrs
Monte Layne Eayrs, age 68, passed
away at the Glendive Medical Center
on August 15, 2022, after a courageous,
hard-fought battle with cancer.
He was born to Ralph “Dutch” and
Dorothy (Dolson) Eayrs in Glasgow, MT
on August 22, 1953. He joined his brother,
Jack, and was soon the big brother to his
three sisters, Tracie, Colleen, and Kristi.
Monte grew up on the Milk River where
he developed his hard work ethic and
love of raising cattle and seed stock.
Throughout his childhood, the Eayrs
showed Angus cattle all over Eastern
MT. During high school, he wrestled for the Scotties, and
his coach, Mr. Kato, left a lifelong impact on Monte.
In 1971 after graduating from Glasgow High School,
he attended MSU Bozeman for two non-consecutive
quarters and decided that the cowboy way of life was for
him. In 1974 he married Nina Ewing and with this union,
his daughter Kathryn was born. During these years, Monte
worked on ranches from the red desert of Wyoming to the
Canadian Border and always had a job at the Cornwell
Ranch. He also partnered with Sherm Ewing, running
cattle from Hardin to Browning.
In 1987, Monte and Stephanie Helland were wed, and
they soon welcomed their three sons Logan, Mark, and
Paul. They made their home north of Glasgow, ranching
and raising Black Angus bulls as seed stock alongside
Dorothy. In 2001, the opportunity presented itself to the
family to purchase a real ranch southeast of Fallon. They
moved and called Cabin Creek home.
Monte will be remembered as a family man,
storyteller, an old-school real stockman, a genealogical
history buff, and cowboy. He was humble, dedicated, and

methodical. Monte never believed in
taking shortcuts in life, always electing
to do things the right way. He raised four
wonderful children and was very proud
of each of them. Monte was blessed with
five grandkids, they were the light of his
life. He will be dearly missed, but we will
continue to see his presence in the cattle
herd he built and the lessons he taught
us. When Monte was diagnosed with
cancer, rather than asking for prayers for
himself, he asked everyone to pray for
rain.

wife of 35 years, Stephanie; daughter
Kathyrn (Jay) Dahlstrom of Picabo, ID;
sons Logan (Kacie) of Ismay, MT, Mark of Fallon, MT,

Response to St. Marie - a Current Overview #4
4. Initially there lacked enough owners and proxies to satisfy a quorum. After calling and driving to
owners homes to get attendance or proxy votes, a quorum was established. The Board Chairperson
and Secretary were asked if a legal quorum was official. NO ANSWER. Some owners spoke out
in protest. I simply said “Have the Registrars Tally” their check off lists. People starting walking out
of the meeting in disgust.
In response to your inaccurate statement that a quorum was established. I thought I would enlighten
you on what SMCA’s legal documents state. The Second Amended By-Laws of the Condominium
Association provide “Meetings and Voting” at paragraph 4, page 1, subparagraph d “Quorum:” No
meeting, regular or special, shall be convened to conduct business unless a quorum is present
in person or by proxy. A quorum shall consist of more than twenty-five percent (25%) of the total
aggregate interest of the Condominium. At any time, during any meeting that a quorum is not
present, such meeting shall be adjourned forthwith.
The Second Amended By-Laws of the Condominium Association provide For “Parliamentary Rules”
paragraph 18, page 5, subparagraph e, Robert’s Rules of Order (latest edition) shall govern the
conduct of the Association’s when not in conflict with the Act, the Declaration of these By-Laws.
Robert’s Rules of Order state in part… if it finds itself without a quorum it can do nothing but rise
and report to the assembly, which then adjourns.
Once the Chairperson made the announcement that there was “no quorum” the meeting was
adjourned.
Just because you gathered up more people or their proxy doesn’t automatically make them count
toward the quorum, the registrars have to determine if they are eligible to vote. Also, the hour and
a half that was spent trying to gather enough eligible owners for a quorum made it to where other
members became tired of waiting and left, so now you need to replace them as well. Furthermore,
the SMCA By-Laws states in part at paragraph 4, page 1, subparagraph c, “Notice:” Such notices
shall specify the date, time and place of the meeting and shall make provision to allow for the
voting of each Owner’s interest by proxy at the discretion of the owner. The proxies are to be
mailed along with the notice, thirty (30) days prior to the day of the meeting. Proxies are sent
to the address provided to the SMCA office by the owner, this helps guarantee that the owner
receives the proxy and not forged. This practice discourages association members from handing
out proxies and from soliciting proxies from fellow owners. This is standard practice in most HOA’s
and that’s precisely what Secretary Stewart and the Board of Directors did for this annual meeting.
As for the Board Chairperson, Alice Hawkins and the SMCA’s Administrative Assistant, DeAnn
Ketchum not giving you an answer to your question “if a legal quorum was official”, when you didn’t
receive an answer to your question why didn’t you ask Melinda Stewart, Secretary of the SMCA
Board of Directors and/or Tina Peabody, Treasure of the SMCA Board of Directors, not only were
they the majority of the board they were sitting right by you in the audience. At anytime, either one
of them could have asked the registrars or counted the votes themselves. Melinda Stewart made a
point of stating in her resignation letter that it wasn’t effective till after the Annual Meeting on August
11, 2022. The person whom you should have addressed with “have the registrars tally” was the one
causing chaos instead of fulfilling her duties as a board director. Chairperson, Alice Hawkins seat
was one of the two vacant seats up for election so, it wouldn’t be appropriate for her to insert herself
into the election process. Once again, the SMCA legal documents lay out all of this step by step. A
review of the documents may have prevented some of the confusion that you and Melinda Stewart
perpetrated.
