      Kissam, Wilhelmina Elizabeth Burr - died peacefully Friday, Feb. 7, 2014, after a short illness at St. Luke's Medical Center near Ketchum, Idaho. She was born July 7, 1914, on her family's farm on Pierce's Road in Newburgh, N.Y., to Richard V. Kissam Sr. and Minnie E. Kissam (Whitlow). Willie grew up in Newburgh with two sisters and a brother, Marie Keesler, Richard V. Kissam Jr. and Cornelia V. Early. She attended West Street School and Newburgh Free Academy. On July 13, 1934, she married the love of her life, Charles "Kenny" Burr, in Goshen, N.Y. They had three children, Thomas K. Burr, Janice Steele and Christine (David) Nelson. She kept her home and family in order for many years and enjoyed her pinochle card club and bowling. When life was tough, she worked harder and made ends meet. In 1968, Willie and Ken, in search of some wide-open spaces, moved to Idaho. They settled in Idaho Falls close to Tom's family. Willie soon found a clerical job with the Idaho National Lab and enjoyed riding the bus to the site for eight or nine years. Every weekend was spent Nordic skiing, fishing, camping, exploring Idaho, gold panning, arrowhead hunting, bowling and canoeing. When Ken passed away in 1991, Willie settled her affairs in Idaho Falls and moved to Hailey. The Hailey Park Townhouses became her new home until recently, when she moved to Safe Haven in Bellevue, Idaho. Willie will be missed by those who knew her and called her Mom or Grammy, as she never tired of giving us advice, love, understanding and encouragement. She had the gift for making us all happy. She leaves her three children, Tom (Paula) Burr, Janice Steele and Chris (David) Nelson; seven grandchildren, Leslie (Paul) Nelson, Tom Jr., Tim (Jennifer) Burr, B.J. Steele, Bobby Steele, Matt (Angela) Nelson and Kenny (Shanell) Nelson; 17 great-grandchildren; one great-great-grandchild; and countless nieces and nephews.

          Lamb, Amherst Howard Jr., Class of 1932, was born in Winsted, Connecticut on November 27, 1915 to Amherst Howard Lamb, Sr. and Florence Harriet Lamb (Brown). He was the eldest of three children. Most of his early years were spent in Connecticut. The family moved to Newburgh, NY where "Am" to his family or "Howard" to his friends graduated from Newburgh Free Academy. In high school Howard was an excellent student and Student Manager of the football team. In January 1935 he eloped with his High School sweetheart Jane Lamont Smith of Newburgh, only to learn a few months later that he had received an appointment to the United States Military Academy at West Point which he was not able to accept. In 1942 Mr. Lamb was the first father drafted from Dutchess County, NY. He served in the United States Army in the European Theater until the end of war. He was honorably discharged in 1946. Mr. Lamb worked for Central Hudson Gas and Electric Company and IBM in Poughkeepsie, NY and Ames Rubber Corporation in Hamburg, NJ. He and Jane were married for over 28 years and had two sons Amherst Robert and Roger Abraham. Jane passed away in 1963. In 1964 Howard met Judy Dority and her daughters who stole his heart and gave him a new life. In 1966 Howard married Julia "Judy" Dority and adopted Judy's two daughters Ann and Nancy. He raised them like his own and gave them a wonderful life and education. Howard was very active in Sparta, New Jersey where he lived for more than 50 years. He was an active member of the First Presbyterian Church as an Elder and was an avid golfer and belonged to the Lake Mohawk Golf Club and served as President in the 1970's. After retiring from Ames Rubber Corporation as VP in Sales and Marketing in Hamburg, NJ, he and Judy moved down to Bonita Springs, FL, and traveled between Sparta, NJ and Bonita Springs every 6 months to keep us with their golfing interests and friends. After Judy was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease they both settled in Charlottesville, VA where both their daughters lived. Once again Howard became a widower as Judy passed away in 2005. He has been living in Charlottesville since then at Our Lady of Peace, where he lived a very active life, making new friends and creating great memories. He read four newspapers a day and continued correspondence with all his friends near and far, sending articles of interest to friends and keeping in touch. Howard passed away March 6, 2011. Howard's wonderful outlook on life, his famous sense of humor, great sense of citizenship and his strong belief in god was part of his tremendous personality. He will be remembered as a truly gifted and admired man. He touched everyone he met and made friends everywhere he went. Dad never met a stranger. We will miss him terribly. He was truly one of a kind. Howard leaves behind two sons, Robert Lamb and his wife Kathleen, Roger Lamb and his wife Cheryl, two daughters, Ann Davis and her husband Eric and Nancy Howell and her husband Jesse. He has seven grandchildren, Terri, Toby, Robert, Todd, Christopher, Julia and Ethan, and six great grandchildren, Adrienne, Nicolette, Soryn, Alex, Isabella, and August.

       Owen, Evelyn Palen, Class of 1932, died Wednesday November 21 at her home in Balmville, NY. She was 96 years old. Evelyn Irene Owen was born October 3, 1916, to Edward Owen and Iva MacNary Owen, at home, in Fostertown, NY. She attended a one room schoolhouse and graduated from Newburgh Free Academy at age 15. She was later declared emancipated from her parents and lived on Bannerman Island with her brother Leonard Wayne Owen, the assistant caretaker, and his family. At 19 she went to Delhi Agricultural School and took both Secretarial and Dairy Commercial studies, graduating a two-year program in one year. She met Wade Palen on her birthday at Delhi. They loved to dance. They were married at the Palen Farm on Creekside Road, south of Kingston, on January 22, 1938. Over the years they lived in Kingston, Auburn, Walden, New City in NY; Ridgewood, NJ; Wilton and Stamford, CT; Tacoma, WA; and finally four miles from where she was born, in Balmville, NY. From 1946 to 1952, Wade and Evelyn built their unique home of concrete and cinder block in Walden, NY. Evelyn carried a concrete block in each hand while walking a narrow beam. She mixed all the concrete and all the mortar for the entire house herself while Wade created the forms, poured the concrete, and laid all the block. The house was designed to be efficient and easy to clean. Evelyn worked as a secretary in law firms in Walden and then for New York Trap Rock. She was the Executive Assistant to the CEO of Lone Star Industries in NYC and in Greenwich, CT. She was the first woman elected to the Board of Directors of Lone Star Industries. She was active in the Walden Women's Club, serving as a President and also as a Resolutions Chairwoman. In the 1950's she created Walden Day to showcase town businesses; the children were excused from school to attend. Evelyn and Wade taught square dancing to Explorer Post 33 and helped young boys grow into solid young citizens. Many still write to her with their gratitude. She served on the Board of the Bannerman Castle Trust and occasionally gave lectures about the Island on river cruises to benefit the Trust. Evelyn attributed her good health and longevity to her loving family, hard work, and yoga. Evelyn was predeceased in 1993 by her husband of 55 years, Wade. She is survived by her devoted son, Stanleigh Wade Palen and his wife Mary, of King George, VA; her daughter E. Virginia Donovan, of Poughkeepsie, NY; her grandchildren Catherine and her husband Andrew Geislzer and children Emma, Katrina, and Wade of Fairfax, VA; Amy and her husband Dr. Michael Wentworth and children Benjamin, Christina, and Jason of Silverdale, WA; Caroline and her husband Jeffrey White and their children Corinne and Jorn of Washington, D.C.; and William Donovan of Asheville, NC. She was predeceased by her brother Leonard Wayne Owen and her half-brothers Denton, Edwin and Stanley. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that donations be considered to Bannerman Castle Trust, PO Box 843, Glenham, NY 12527-0843. A celebration of her life will be held on December 6, 2012 at 6 pm at The First Reformed Church, 70 Scofield Street, Walden, New York. All are welcome.
