FOND MEMORIES
The rustling of leaves in a soft morning breeze
The dancing shade patterns beneath the tall trees
The bright splash of bluebells, yellow snaps and paint brush
The hills with their scent of blooming sage brush
Riding through this splendor with friend by my side
Hot chocolate and cookies at the end of the ride
A game of Mahjong before going to bed
On the enveloping softness of an old feather bed
The bleating of sheep at the shearing sheds
Aromas from the cook shack of pies and baked breads
Of fresh perking coffee and smoked bacon frying
The wind through the quaking asps - sighing then dying
The memory of Grandmother with cane in her hand
Watching over the flocks that carried her brand
Caring so deeply for the land she surveyed
The fields and the mountains - the home she had made
Gentle winds blowing through leaves of the trees
Always bring back these fond memories

From March 1, 1948 to August 31, 1949, Margaret worked for Missoula White Pine Sash Company, Wholesale Manufacturers, in Missoula, Montana as a stenographer and general office work. A letter of recommendation states they were pleased to recommend her to anyone in need of her services. On June 5, 1950, Frank graduated from the University of Montana with a degree in Bachelor of Science in Forestry. Throughout the years he supported his family working for various lumber companies as a manager in which he was very successful and later owed a sawmill in northern California.
Only July 8, 1953, their second child was born, Adele Madge Hasy, in Stockton, California. They then moved to Los Angeles area and Catherine Russell was born.
Frank was offered the manager's position at the Tarter, Webster & Johnson Lumber Yard, a wholesale company in Rialto, California.

Only one other house existed in the groves in which it later became known as El Rancho Verde Country Club with a golf course and numerous homes.

In a short time, she was promoted to Supervisor of the Graveyard Shift. She loved her job and working for law enforcement. She was dedicated and known as a very hard worker, often staying past quitting time without pay which added up to many hours of volunteer time over her 10 plus years on the graveyard shift. She received many written commendations from deputies, police officers, detectives and the Highway Patron. She became known as Maggie, someone they could count on to provide them with the information they needed, such as criminal records and warrants.
She also conducted telecommunication (aka teletype) classes for dispatchers from Southern California at the Sheriff Bland Training Academy at Glenn Helen. To make her presentations interesting, she would insert a drawing on the overhead projector of two streakers, a male deputy wearing his holster with his gun inside it and badge attached to the bottom of his holster, chasing a naked woman pulling a flag with the words STREAK on it. Everyone got a good laugh from it. This was back in the days when streaking was new. She was also Vice President of San Bernardino County Peace Officers Association.

In 1977, she joined the Order of the Eastern Star, following in her grandmother Emma Yearian's foot steps. Her grandfather Thomas Yearian was a member of the Masons.
In 1978 she moved back to Idaho, after purchasing a home in Salmon that she fell in love with. One day when she was visiting Jock and Roberta Slavin, family friends, she asked if they would be interested in selling their home. The rest is history. The home was located on the bar at 122 S. Lombard St, one block from the Court House. It had a creek and was on 1 1/2 acres. She enjoyed decorating and remodeling her home. She added on to the kitchen and living room which included a sun room, her happy place. Barry Solk and Bob Wiederrick built her beautiful sun room. They did an excellent job. There were 3 walls off the living room, all windows from ceiling to floor looking out into her backyard which included English and Japanese gardens. She loved to entertain in this room and also watch the deer that would stop to eat as they passed through. She had bird feeders that she would make sure they were always full. In her past time she enjoyed oil painting of outdoor scenes and people. She also loved to play scrabble and usually beat everyone. It was no wonder she was so good at scrabble, as she was Salutatorian of her graduating class.
Due to illness, she had to sell her home in 2005. She went to live with her daughter Cathy & Rod in Nevada. In 2006 she went to live with her other daughter Adele in Highland, California, until October 2014 when she broke her hip, could no longer walk and resided in a residential board and care home in Loma Linda. She received great care there and shared a room with Rose Murphy for 7 years, Adele's mother-in-law, who is still there.
She is survived by her two daughters, Adele Murphy (Richard) of Highland, California and Cathy (Rod) McCormick, daughter-in-law Valerie Hasy of Meridian, Idaho, four step grandchildren, cousins and dear friends. Her parents and her son Frank Hasy preceded her in death.
