Each Memorial Day I visit the Flanders Field section
of our cemetery to pay tribute to four of my classmates
who served in Vietnam and will be forever young. Bunk
Avery, Dana Muskgrove, Leonard Harjo and Lynn True
. . . genuine heroes.
As I walk thru the veteran’s area of the cemetery I see
many familiar names and I think of how these families
must have felt when they received word of their death.
One of the greatest columnists of my lifetime is
Frank Boggs. He wrote the following during the Vietnam War.
They Buried Bill Chambers Today
Bill Chambers was buried Tuesday afternoon on a
hillside in the cemetery at the edge of town. There were
a lot of very old trees there and a lot of very young flowers and a lot of very good people. It is peaceful there and
peace is what Bill Chambers wanted most.
The funeral procession, an unusually long one for
such a small little town stuck off from any major highway,
inched down a narrow asphalt road toward the cemetery. It
passed a house almost surrounded by purple iris and other
pretty flowers I don’t know the names of. It passed the
Maysville water tower which is white, except for where
various students have taken red paint on some nights and
identified their particular class. Maybe Bill Chambers
helped paint it once himself.
Inside the cemetery gate the pavement quit. The dirt
began, wide enough for only one lane of traffic. The
people parked where they could, then assembled for their
last respects. This whole town closed. Everything. Absolutely everything. The business area, which would be lost
in a larger city, was marked with flags which flapped in
Tuesday’s sultry breezes. Even school was dismissed.
A few hours earlier Paul Pratt sat in the first chair at
the Trend barber shop. He knew Bill Chambers well.
“I was his best buddy,” he said. And he bit his lip.
He turned to the barber. “My hair’s kinduva mess,”
he said. “I guess whatever you can do with it is the best
thing.”
Not many blocks from the cemetery is where Bill
Chambers was a boy. Tuesday the townspeople here—all
those who bake pies and make salads and slice ham and
fry chicken and make sure they’re there when someone is
having trouble—knew that Bill Chambers was a man.
Cars lined both sides of the street in front of the house
Bill Chambers visited in last November. He was home for
16 days. He reported to the west coast. He called home
soon after arriving there. He talked to Lawrence Chambers
for 45 minutes. “I don’t think we’ll leave tonight, Daddy,
and if we don’t I’ll call you again tomorrow night.”
He didn’t call back. He left for Vietnam.
It so happened he was here during a Veterans’ Day observance at the high school, which is a low-slung structure
on the other side of town from Bill’s house. He wore his
army uniform and he participated in the observance at a
school assembly. Chester Wohl remembers.
Mr. Wohl is a short little man who knows everybody
in Maysville. He teaches typing at the high school. He
taught Bill Chambers how to type one semester.
“He was a real conscientious boy,” said Mr. Wohl. “A
hard worker. He wasn’t the best student in the world, but
he always got his work in on time. He didn’t have to be
pushed. He had initiative. He was well thought of by his
class members.”
Bill Chambers’ picture is on page 32 of the 1968
Warrior, the school yearbook. He was a senior then. A
fine looking young man. His hair parted on the left and
draped down a little on his forehead on the right side. And
he had sort of a twinkle to his eyes that day he posed for
the yearbook picture. It’s the sort of pose guys use while
knowing that in some future year various gals from that
same class will get out the old yearbook and look at it and
eat their hearts out.
“His favorite subjects,” said Mr. Wohl as his present
class pecked out imaginary business letters to imaginary
firms, “were government and history. He always talked
about different freedoms this country had and some the
others didn’t. He always said he wanted to do something
some day to help preserve those freedoms.”
He did.
Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence Chambers were notified of
Bill’s death last Tuesday. He had been killed the previous
Sunday. One of Bill’s buddies had been horribly wounded.
A leg was gone. Bill loaded him into a helicopter. He
patted his shoulder. “Everything’s going to be all right,”
he told him. And it is. Apparently, it happened right after
that.
Before the funeral Mr. Chambers stood in the front
yard which fits against the modest white frame home. He
sipped iced tea and smoked cigarettes. He said if there
was one word that described Bill it was “honest.”
Mr. Chambers recalled all the times he wrestled around
with Bill and Paul Pratt,
the best friend who now is
in the army, too. “I never
would let my boys throw a
firecracker under me,” and
Mr. Chambers. “I always
made sure I threw it first.”
He kinda smiled. “Bill and
Paul there would get pretty
tough with me sometimes
but I never would admit that
to them.”
It was about time for
Paul to go change clothes.
“Mr. Chambers, would
you like for me to wear my
army suit?” Mr. Chambers
said, “Would you like to,
Paul?” and Paul said, “Yes
sir. I believe I would.” Mr.
Chambers said, “That will
be fine. That will be just all
right.” Paul left.
In a family photo album, which is kept on the
shelf underneath the coffee
table, Mrs. Chambers got
the letter for me to read.
It has been folded and unfolded many, many times
since Bill wrote it only one
month ago. It will be folded
and unfolded forever. They
let me read it:
“Dear Mom. As I sat
here thinking of what happened last night and this
morning, I just wonder what
is happening to mankind
these days. Was man put
here on earth to destroy, to
take the life of other men,
and to commit the sins that
everyone commits today?
“I just don’t think so.
As I carried a wounded VC
down to the log pad today
I began to wonder about
these things. I believe men
were put here to love, not
destroy, to build and carry
on one’s life for the good
of other people.
“As I looked upon the
dead this morning I began
to wonder if I could put my
sight upon an enemy soldier
and pull the trigger and take
the life of another man like
I did the other day. I don’t
know, but as they say, ‘Time
will tell.’ Or will it?
“I feel like laying my
gun down now and just go
home, but would that be
right to these people here?
Can one just leave and let
the enemy go on beating
and killing innocent people
and run to the safety of
home? I don’t think that
would be right.
“I know I couldn’t run
away from a problem and
live with myself. I was not
meant to be a coward and I
will not be one. I will die
before I disgrace myself
and my family. I could not
hurt any one of you. I am
not that kind of person and
I ask you all to forgive me
for the worries that I have
brought you.
“Mom, I believe you
will understand this letter
because it is the way I feel
and I hope this war ends
soon and with God’s help
everyone will live in peace.
Love always, Bill”
Bill Chambers was buried Tuesday afternoon on a
hillside in the cemetery at
the edge of town. There
were a lot of very old trees
and a lot of very young
flowers and a lot of very
good people. It is peaceful
there and peace is what Bill
Chambers wanted most.
He was 19.

Adam Stapp opened the worship services this Sunday by sharing his class’s memory verse. The veterans who were present
were then recognized, and the congregation recited the pledge
to the United States flag.
In times when a few loud voices shout disrespect, it is good
to be among those who proudly respect God, family, and country.
Thank you, Veterans, for paying the price for our freedom to
freely express our thoughts, views, wisdom, lack of wisdom,
and revised opinions. Thank you, too, for paying the price for
our freedom to worship as we see fit.
Joyce Searcy brought the special music this Sunday, singing
“Heaven’s Sounding Sweeter all the Time.” As we listened, we
could almost hear one another thinking of friends and family
members who have gone on to heaven ahead of us.
Rev. Karch’s message was about signs of the End Times.
No one knows the exact year, day, or time when Jesus will
return. Anyone who claims that they do know can be considered
a false prophet. People who are fooled by these “prophets”
haven’t read what the Bible says about signs of the End Times.
When several of these signs occur relatively close together it is
time to take note that the return of Christ could well be near.
Matthew 24: 27-31 says that the coming of Jesus will be like
the lightning flashing from the east to the west. It speaks of
the sun being darkened, and the moon not giving its light, the
stars falling from heaven, and the heavens being shaken.
Jesus will come in the twinkling of an eye, and at that time
people won’t have time to make a decision. Those who haven’t
accepted Jesus as their savior will be left behind, but believers
will be taken up to heaven. Jesus told us about these events so
that we will be sure to be ready.
Acts 2:19-21 speaks of the sun being turned to darkness and
the moon into blood. There will have been an eclipse of the sun
(March 20, 2015) and 3 of what are called Blood Moons—April
1 and Oct. 8th of this year and Sept. 28th of 2015—all within a
year and a half. This is worth thinking about. It is also important, though, that the passage ends with “Whoever calls on the
name of the Lord shall be saved.”
Salvation for all is made possible by grace through Jesus
Christ. Whether Jesus returns today or in a hundred years, now
is the time to receive Him as Lord and Savior.

Having More Retirement
Accounts is Not the Same
as Having More Money.
When it comes to the number of retirement
accounts you have, the saying “more is better” is
not necessarily true. In fact, if you hold multiple
accounts with various brokers, it can be difficult to
keep track of your investments and to see if you’re
properly diversified.* At the very least, multiple
accounts usually mean multiple fees.
Bringing your accounts to Edward Jones could
help solve all that. Plus, one statement can make it
easier to see if you’re moving toward your goals.
*Diversification does not guarantee a profit or protect against loss.
To learn why consolidating your
retirement accounts to Edward Jones
makes sense, call your local financial
advisor today.

obtained this little group of
pages, but I have used them
many, many times over the
years, to check dates. Some
times I wanted I have wanted to check on a date about

I was the 10th child in my

as were most of the children in our family. All my
young sisters and brothers
were sent to a neighbor that
day, while my mother gave
birth. When someone went
to tell them they could come

‘Guess what we have at

One Pharmacist’s View
It’s A Wonderful Life
“This is a terrible front
page,” my wife exclaimed!
We were driving down the
road and she had the front
page of “The Ada Evening
News” in her hands and
reading. “What do you
mean, it’s a terrible front
page?” “It’s just full of
crimes of the worse sort and
all right here at home,” she
replied. After we got home
I decided to see what she
was talking about. Well,
she was mostly right. There
wasn’t anything wrong with
the paper but every story on
the front page was a crime
story and it was local stuff.
Child abuse, drug arrest,
robberies and assaults totally took the Ada paper. It
was depressing to read.
I t reminded me of a
Christmas Classic — “It’s a
Wonderful Life” that came
out in 1946. This great
movie only won one academy award. Nor was it a big
box-office hit at the time.
But it survived over time to
America’s Greatest Generation
be the much watched classic
that it is. You who saw it
will remember that George
Bailey (James Stewart) as
a good old boy who owned
the local savings and loan.
Old Man Potter (Lionel
Barrymore) who owned
the bank was a bad guy
who was always trying to
ruin George and take over
the town. Try as he may,
Potter was not successful
— and that was a good thing
for more reasons than you
might think.
As it was, George Bailey’s
good nature is what nearly
did him in. He provided
a job to his incompetent
and bumbling Uncle Billy
(Thomas Mitchell) who lost
a $12,000 dollar deposit in
Potter’s bank which was
found by Potter’s equally
evil bodyguard and swiped.
This drove the Bailey Savings and Loan into immediate bankruptcy ruining everything (at least in
Light from God’s
Word
Mark Legg,
Allen church of Christ
A lady in a pharmacy
asked the pharmacist if
he had a cure for hiccups.
He said, “I sure do,” and
immediately and unexpectedly yelled, “Boo!” as loud
as he could. This nearly
scared the lady to death!
She looked at the pharmacist and asked, “Why in the
world did you do that?”
He replied, “Because a
good scare will rid a person
of hiccups.” The lady then
said, “But I don’t have the
hiccups. My husband does
and he’s out in the car.”
Oops! Making inaccurate
assumptions can be costly.
However, the greatest costs
of inaccurate assumptions
are in the spiritual realm.
How many people assume
they believe and practice
the things that please God?
To assume that something
pleases God because it
pleases us could be a terrible assumption. “There
is a way that seems right
to a man, but its end is the
way of death.” (Prov 14:12)
If we have never read and
studied for ourselves, how
can we assume that our religious beliefs and practices
are from God?
People tell us things like,
“It doesn’t matter what
you believe, just so you are
sincere,” and “It doesn’t
matter what church you
are a member of.” Should
we assume that these statements are truths from God
or should we examine God’s
word to see if they are from
God? Surely it would be
a terrible mistake to assume
such statements are true
just because they please
us! The Bible says to “Test
all things; hold fast what is
good.” (1 Thessalonians
5:21)
Also, we should not assume something is true
because a preacher, priest or
other religious leader taught
it. We must be like the
people of Berea who tested
everything the Apostle Paul
taught. They “received the
word with all readiness,
and searched the Scriptures
daily to find out whether
these things were so.” (Acts
17:11) Let’s put our faith
in God’s word, and never
assume any man’s interpretation is true.
Class of
1974
All classmates from the AHS Class of 1974, their
teachers, families and friends are invited to their 40th
Reunion/Get-Together on Friday, June 13th, at the

George’s mind) that George
had worked for. Forsaking
everything Bailey goes out
to the Mill Dam to toss
himself into the frigid waters and drown. During this
hard time, George is being
watched over by God who
decides to use a new guardian angel, Clarence, played
by Henry Trevers.
It’s Clarence’s first case
and his first job as an angel
he is unsure of himself. By
this time George has taken
his suicide leap uttering that
he wishes he had never been
born. Clarence rescues
George and takes him on
a tour of what was originally called Bedford Falls.
Now its name is Potterville.
George got his wish and he
had never been born. He
never existed. The rest of
the movie shows how much
of a difference George Bailey had made in the lives
of so many and in general
the direction of an entire
town. George meets several
people whom he had saved
from poverty or bad decisions who were now just
bums. No one knew him
of course, even members
of his own family—since
he had never existed.
The town itself was full of
bars and nightclubs. Drunks
were everywhere and drugs
rampant. Crime was out
of control and derelicts lay
around on the streets. His
beloved wife, Mary, is an
old maid, his kids don’t exist and no one remembers
the Bailey Savings and
Loan. Uncle Billy is still in
prison for his incompetence
and finally Clarence leads
George to the point where
he turns back to God for
restoration and he is. So
is his town and his family.
Potterville no longer exists
but the law is after George
because of Uncle Billy’s
losing the money. But
George has friends and in
the spirit of Christmas they
take up enough money to
pay off the demanding Bank
Examiner and not only is
Bedford Falls restored to its
former beauty and wholesomeness but so is George’s
faith in God and humanity.
Contrasting Bedford Falls
with Potterville makes me
think of Ada in 1946. It was
a town of thrifty hard working citizens with a large
middle class of merchants
who owned their own businesses, professionals serving a hardworking citizenry
and virtually no crime. I
remember the first armed
robbery (in my life) in Ada.
I was shocked. “Ordinary
crime right here in our
town” I thought. We hadn’t
seen anything yet. Ada is
much changed. Most of our
retail business and money
is now owned and operated
by far-away corporations.
Crime and drugs are ever on
the rise, church attendance
on the downswing, children
abused and neglected, it
makes one wonder what’s
next? And I don’t see a sign
of Clarence anywhere. Pray
for our country.
Have a good weekend and
be sure that you and yours
are in church this Sunday.

to it, “the grapes of wrath trip
to California.” He graduated
from Dinuba High School at
age sixteen with the Class of
1944. Upon graduation, he
and a teammate were offered
contracts to play minor league
baseball in Fresno, California.
Roy declined, and the family
returned to Oklahoma. Roy
enrolled at Oklahoma A&M,
Stillwater, Oklahoma.
While home on semester
break and Christmas shopping
with his grandfather, John
Ruble, at the local J. C. Penny
store, he saw a girl working
in the shoe department that
caught his eye. His grandfather
bet him he couldn’t get a date
with that girl. Grandpa lost
the bet. Roy and Kathryn
Amelia Harrison were married
on July 20, 1946.
In 1945 Roy enlisted in the
U. S. Navy and ultimately
was stationed on the island of
Guam, in the South Pacific,
where he was in radio
communications. Although
his naval career was brief, he
was proud to serve in the U.
S. Navy, and it is fitting that
he passed away on Memorial
Day, May 26, 2014.
Returning to Holdenville
upon his discharge, he went
into the electrical business
with his good friend Jack
Amrey. Later he owned and
operated his own business and
in the early 1960’s purchased
the local Carrier Heat and Air
dealership, which he owned
until his retirement in 1975.
His greatest joy came after
moving to Yeager in 1975 and
working with his cattle.
Roy was the definition of
a “yellow dog democrat”,
and was looking forward to
the inauguration of President
Hillary Clinton in 2016. He
had many likes and dislikes.
He very much disliked “longwinded funerals” and flowery
eulogies. Therefore, there
will be no public service.
But, visitation and viewing
will be at Hudson-Phillips
Funeral Home, Holdenville,
Oklahoma, on Thursday, May
29th, from 6:00 to 8:00pm.
Roy was predeceased by
his wife Kathryn A. Shirley
on November 2, 2011; his
parents Dave and Artie
Shirley; an infant sister Ollie
Mae Shirley; brother Joe
Carl Shirley; sister-in-law
Founzeine Shirley; nephew
David Michael Shirley; and
brother-in-law Jess Howard.
He is survived by his
daughter, Patricia A. Allford;
brother W. D. Shirley and
wife Barbara; sister Florence
Howard; and many nieces and
nephews.
It is requested that any
memorial contributions
be made to the Oklahoma
Medical Research Foundation,
locally to the Lanny Scroggins
Memorial Scholarship

Holdenville, Oklahoma, or to
