Recently I found this postcard and letter in my files. The letter was to my father, Tom Staly Sr. from Daphne Dempsey.

 Peg Staeheli sent this information about Greg.

Gregory George Staeheli, 76, of Spokane, WA passed away May 20, 2021 at Fieldstone Memory Care. Greg was born in Sacramento, CA on April 28, 1945. Greg graduated from Gonzaga Prep High School in 1963, Seattle University in 1968 and Gonzaga Law School in 1972. He spent four years in college ROTC and enlisted in the Army after graduating from law school. He served from 1972 to 1979; six of those years in the Reserves. He worked as a Deputy Prosecuting Attorney in Gray's Harbor County and Spokane County Prosecutor's Office from 1973 to 1980 before going into private practice until he retired in 2016. He was a member of the Cheney School Board from 1991 to 1996; served as School Board President 1993-94. Greg had a passion for outdoor activities: bicycling, hiking, backpacking, boating, motorcycling, snowmobiling and golfing. He also had a passion for reading, learning and absorbing as much as he could especially historical facts. Greg had a zest for life and believed in living each day as if it was his last. But, what he loved most and enjoyed most was his family. He thrived in teaching his boys life skills and encouraging them to try all the good things life had to offer. He was truly invested in ensuring a good, healthy and fun-filled life for his family and in creating wonderful memories. He was successful in both missions. He lived life to the fullest and he left behind a legacy of wonderful, cherished memories. He will be deeply missed, forever loved and remembered by those he leaves behind: Esther Staeheli, his wife of forty-four years; sons, Gavin and Garrett Staeheli, daughter-In-law Sherrie Staeheli and three grandchildren. He was preceded in death by by his parents Richard and Patricia Staeheli and brother Richard A. Staeheli.

Today I was notified by Irene Dempsey that Den Dempsey died on June 12. He had recovered from covid which he had in December but recently contracted pneumonia. Doctors cleared Irene to take him home from the hospital so he spent his last week at home with Irene sitting with him holding his hand. To the end he was alert and pain free.

Irene has characterized Den as a brave and determined fighter against the stroke and a good man and mate.

 Dennis Dempsey -  July 10,1943 to June 12, 2021
