Wilbur Roland Bouillez, 90, of Long Creek, died Jan. 28, 2010, at his home. A private memorial service is planned at a later date.

Mr. Bouillez was born in Fontanet, Ind., on July 24, 1919, one of nine children born to Joseph and Mary (McGranahan) Bouillez. While he was a young, the family moved to Oakland, Calif.

In October 1941 he married (Celia) Darlene Fuller.

Upon his wife Darlene's death in 1987, he began spending part of the year with his daughter's family in Long Creek, eventually making it his full-time home.

He enjoyed helping out on the ranch and spending time with his granddaughters.

Survivors include his daughter, Beverly (Richard) Courchesne of Long Creek; granddaughters, Danielle and Amanda Courchesne of Star, Idaho; one brother; and three sisters.

Arrangements are under the care of Driskill Memorial Chapel, 241 S. Canyon Blvd. John Day, OR 97845. (Blue Mountain Eagle newspaper, John Day, Grant, Oregon)
