2151 I580  Spangler  Raymond Luper  23 Jan 1904  21 Sep 1997  Published in SF Chronicle Tuesday, September 23, 1997

Raymond Spangler of Redwood City, a force in Peninsula journalism for eight decades and a former president of the Society of Professional Journalists, died Sunday at the age of 93.

Born Jan. 23, 1904, in Oakland, Mr. Spangler died in a local hospital after breaking a hip in a fall this month.

Mr. Spangler began his career at South San Francisco High, where he passed out a newspaper he wrote by hand on butcher paper. He enrolled at Stanford University in 1920 and became editor of the Stanford Daily.

During prohibition, he worked for the South San Francisco Enterprise and the South San Francisco Journal, writing stories supporting municipal reform at a time when bootleggers corrupted local politics.

In 1937, he joined the Redwood City Tribune as courthouse reporter and began writing a column, titled "Under the Courthouse Dome." He wrote some 7,000 columns over 32 years, offering background and opinions on such issues as the explosive growth during the post-World War II years.

Mr. Spangler served in the Army on the eve of World War II, helping to build Fort McQuaid near Monterey. During the war, he served in the U.S. Coast Guard Temporary Reserve.

He became editor and publisher of the Tribune in 1945. He relinquished his job as editor and remained publisher until 1968.

Mr. Spangler served on the board of directors of the Associated Press from 1951-61 and was national president of Sigma Delta Chi, now known as the Society of Professional Journalists, in 1966. He led the fight to admit women to its membership.

Throughout his career, he fought for open trials, access to public records and preservation of the First Amendment. After he retired in 1969, he was chairman of the California Freedom of Information Committee.

While retired, Mr. Spangler taught at local colleges and wrote about San Mateo County politics for three weekly newspapers until 1992.

Mr. Spangler and his wife, Nita, also fought to preserve lands around the Peninsula from development. The former Nita Reifschneider worked at the Tribune as a police reporter before the two married in 1946. The couple were to have celebrated their 51st anniversary yesterday.

In addition to his wife, Mr. Spangler is survived by his sons, Jon of Palo Alto and Thor of Albuquerque, N.M.; a daughter, Mary Spangler of Redwood City; his sisters, Edna Harks of South San Francisco and Althea Evarts of San Bruno; and five grandchildren.

Memorial services will be at 2 p.m. September 30 at St. Peter's Episcopal Church in Redwood City.

The family suggests donations to St. Peter's, 178 Clinton St., Redwood City 94061 or to the San Mateo County Historical Society, 1700 W. Hillsdale Blvd., San Mateo 94402 for a fund to convert the old courthouse in Redwood City to a museum.

SPEIDEL-The Speidel family on Dearborn street is a sadly afflicted family, three members of it having died within three months. A daughter, Mary, died Nov 23, the father died Jan. 7, and now we have to record the death of Frank, who died Feb. 24. He was taken ill with partial paralysis and went to the Sisters' Hospital a week later, where he lingered until last Sunday, when he passed away. For a few days before his death he was entirely speechless. The doctors were unable to locate his trouble, but knew it was some pressure on the brain. It appears that while working at the Buffalo Spring and Gear Works last fall he was struck on the head by a piece of machinery, which raised a large bump, but after the swelling want away he didn't notice any more of it and the family had forgotten all about it, but after his death it was found that a large tumor had formed in his head, hence the pressure on his brain and the consequent paralysis. Francis Xavier Speidel was born at 232 Dearborn street, where the family still reside, and was well known in Black Rock. He was 28 years, 5 months and 27 days of age. He was a carpenter by trade and worked for George Argus shortly before he was taken ill. He was a member of St. Francis Xavier Society. He was married Feb. 12, 1890, to Frederika Kling, who survives to mourn his loss, together with a little boy and little girl, his mother, five brothers and three sister. The funeral took place Wednesday at St. Francis Xavier church; the remains being interred in the River Road Cemetery

2159 I49  Speidel  Lenore Frances  23 Aug 1877  21 Dec 1968  Lenore Speidel Smith's synopsis of her life -- Miki Bratt
"Lenore was born in Corvallis. Hattie and Joe had a farm with some cows. Joe did blacksmithing there. (In 1940, the property was across from Oregon State University).

These were horse and buggy days. When Lenore was just a little bit of a thing, she had a pony and would ride out to round up the cows for milking. Her playmates and best friends were her cousins. She was very fond of Ora and Jennie's oldest, and her parents made many visits, back and forth to George's farm near Eugene to cousins Edna, Mollie, and Beth.

Once in the time before she started school, Lenore stood in her nightie near the wood stove to get warm. She stood too near and her nightie caught fire. Luckily, she was not badly burned.

The family came to California. Lenore went to High school with Kuchel's, Stern's and Smith's. She fell in love with Will Smith. They were married in the Congregational Church in Buena Park.

Lenore writes: "Lived in Fullerton for awhile. We moved back to Buena Park. Bought a little cottage that we made all over [remodeled] (Next to Park House Hotel).

"In 1901 I had my first child, a boy, Harry Frances Smith. Later years, March 9, 1967, he died of heart trouble. Five years later, we were blessed with another boy, 1907, Stanley Dunbar Smith and in 1909, William Leslie Smith. We moved to Carlsbad where my husband was a foreman of a 640 [acre?] ranch for two years. Moved back to Fullerton. My husband was interested in Orange and Walnut Groves. In 1913, Aug. 29, a baby girl was born. Later, the crash came and we lost the big Orange Grove.

Will was foreman of Thumb Ranch. Thumb made his money in sticky fly paper." From a 1909 Photograph.

Fullerton ranch waa purchased from the Zeyn girls (1920). From photo taken at party to celebrate moving to the Fullerton Ranch. Stanley home at 511 W. Ash, Fullerton is on old ranch property.

After the ranch was lost Hattie invited Lenore to come stay with her and keep house at 1342 Shatto St. In turn, Hattie promised Lenore half the house. Lenore lived there from around 1931, until a few months before her death in 1968. Will took a job as manager of a ranch on Orangethorpe (in Fullerton) across from Retta's place. He lived in a garage apartment.

Lenore and Will visited back and forth. They fixed a clapboard room and a curtained room in the basement at 1342 Shatto St. There were two double beds and a day bed there. Sometimes Lenore stayed with Will, sometimes at Hanna's ranch nextdoor to Retta.

In Fullerton, Lenore accepted care of Jeannie and Gloria Crawford children of Ted Crawford, a musician. Lenore had a lasting relationship with Ted. There were rumors. At the least he was a very gallant son. She gave him money from time to time. He was always in the hole.

There were also rumors about Will at the same time with a relationship with Mary Milrick, a fashionable Anaheim dressmaker. At the least Will and Mary played cards together with the Simths.

The Smiths were all great card players. Poker and Bridge. Will played cards regularly, much to Lenore's chagrin. he wouldn't play anything except rummy and a little casino. She usually did her iorning evenings while Will played with his sisters. There was a lot of ironing and it was still done with a flat iron, heated on a wood stove. But they had an automobile. Lenore was very proud of her home, her china and silver, and her position as a respected family in the community.

Obituary
(Hand Written: Jan. 7, 1894)

SPEIDEL-Another of Black Bock's oldest settlers has gone to join the great majority on the other side of Jordan. Joseph Speidel. was one of the pioneers of Black Rock. and has lived to see the place grow from a wilderness to what it is at the present time. But his call came Monday at 5 p. m., and he passed peacefully away at his residence, 232 Dearborn street. Six weeks before his daughter Lena died, and this seemed to affect him considerably, as he pined away gradually since that time, and three weeks ago took to his bed. At the time of his death he was aged 75 years, 8 months and 10 days. Joseph Speidel was born in Wertemburg [handwritten Alsaise], Germany, but came to Black Eock over 54 years ago, when there was very. little civilization here and before there was, any church. He was married in the o!d St. Louis' church on Main street Sept. 8, 1846. Some years ago he kept a blacksmith shop where Striker's jewelry store now is on Niagara street, between Hamilton and Amherst streets. When St-Francis Xavier's church was built he was one of the leading spirits in the work, and he was a charter member and helped to organize the St. Francis Xavier Aid Society. He leaves to mourn his loss a widow, six sons, and three daughters. One son, Joseph, and two daughters are in California and the other daughter in St, Louis, Mo. The others reside in Black Rock and Buffalo. The funeral took place Thursday, morning, the remains being laid away in the River Road burying ground.

2197 I5075  Straaberg  Vivian Sylvia  28 Sep 1921  25 Jan 2016  From Find A Grave Memorial# 157570914

Vivian Straaberg Hawkins Fellows, 94, passed away on January 25, 2016.

She was born to Hyrum Axel Straaberg and Johanna Martina Andersen on September 28, 1921 in Salt Lake City, the youngest of eleven children. All have preceded her in death.

Vivian was proud of her Scandinavian heritage. Both parents were immigrants to the U.S., her father arriving from Norway and her mother from Denmark.

Mom attended Lincoln Junior High and graduated from South High. She always remembered those days with fondness as some of her best.

As a young adult, she worked at an arms plant in the Salt Lake area, where she lived most of her life. She worked in California for the Signal Corps during WWII.

After the war, she met and married South Pacific veteran Eugene Hardy Hawkins in the family home in Sugar House; she was married to "Jimmy" until his death in 1975. Together, they raised a son and a daughter, James Craig Hawkins (Judy) of Twin Falls, Idaho and Susan Lee Hawkins (Dane Beck) of Salt Lake City.

Our mother was active in Boy Scouting when younger, serving as den mother for Cubs while living in the Canyon Rim area. Later, she was highly involved in Little League and Pony League Baseball organizations, serving as official scorekeeper for the Midvale teams her son played on. Mom felt passionately about the value of such programs for their influence in keeping kids out of trouble.

While living in Midvale, she was a member of Ladies Guild, serving for a time as its president. During these formative years of her children's lives, she was a great supporter and nurturer, always ready to listen to their troubles and successes.

A stay-at-home mom, Vivian was a wonderful cook and-way back then-a pretty good housekeeper. She managed finances efficiently and kept the family healthy, happy and secure.

When her husband died in 1975 following heart surgery in Palo Alto, California, Viv faced a new set of challenges as a widow. For a couple of years, she worked as a teller at State Savings and Loan in Murray.

In 1979, she renewed an old high school acquaintance with A. Wilford Fellows, also recently widowed. The two were married by Vivian's son, Craig, then Bishop of a Salem, Oregon LDS ward.

Wilf and Vivian shared eighteen good years together at the home they built in Cottonwood Heights, traveling to foreign countries and enjoying the company of friends, relatives, and members of their LDS wards. Wilford died of congestive heart failure in 1998. Our mother remained in their home in Fort Union until moving into her son's home in Twin Falls last August.

Mom was independent, spunky and much fun to tease, and always ready to go for a drive in the car. She was loyal to her family in everything she did and instilled the values of sharing, saving and self-sacrifice in her two children.

Mom adored the companionship of dogs and cats and played pinochle and other card games with friends. She also preserved fruits and vegetables well into her eighties and doted over her raspberry bushes.

Viv was intensely interested in national politics and kept herself well informed through television and newspaper. For many years, she was an election poll judge and enjoyed meeting people in that capacity.

She is survived by her two children, eight grandchildren, and thirteen great-grandchildren.

Funeral services will be held at 1:30 p.m. on Saturday, January 30, 2016 at Goff Mortuary, 8090 South State Street (100 East), Midvale. A visitation will be held there a half hour before the services.

Igor as son of Rurik of Kiev (d. 879).} He was the first prince of Kiev to
attempt conquest beyond Russia proper, invading Bulgaria and taking Preslav
in 968; he was forced to withdraw in 972 and was killed in a battle with the
Petchenegs (employed by the Byzantines to attack him).
