A memorial service was held for Ruth Augsburger, 79, of Coos Bay, on Wednesday, February 25, 2009 at the Bay Area Church Of The Nazarene in North Bend.

Ruth was born on November 22, 1929, in Houston, Texas. She died February 22, 2009 in Coos Bay. Ruth was married to Fr. Will Augsburger for 53 years. He predeceased her in 2001. Ruth was a homemaker and mother to eight children, grandmother to 32, and great-grandmother to 20. Ruth is survived by her children and their families: Jim and Kim Augsburger, Chris Duval, Joe and Caren Augsburger, Mary and Dale Southmayd, Chris Augsburger, and Tom and Mandy Augsburger.

Arrangements are under the direction of Myrtle Grove Funeral Service-Bay Area, 269-2851.]]> no@spam.com (Coquille Valley Sentinel Staff) http://www.oregonbeacon.com/CoquilleSentinel/articles/933/1/Ruth-Augsburger/Page1.html http://www.oregonbeacon.com/CoquilleSentinel/articles/932/1/Oregon-Senate-Passes-Novelty-Lighter-Bill/Page1.html
Governor Kulongoski is expected to sign the bill which was carried to the Senate floor by Senators Suzanne Bonamici (DWashington County/Portland) and Larry George (R-Sherwood). “This is an exciting day for the fire service,” said State Fire Marshal Randy Simpson.

“We’re glad that Oregon Senators and Representatives have taken a leading role in keeping these deceptive devices out of the hands of children. This bill will save lives, prevent injury and property loss from fire.” Under the bill, novelty lighters with features attractive to children, including visual effects, flashing lights, musical sounds, and toylike designs are prohibited from sale, sold or distributed, or manufactured for the purpose of sale or distribution in Oregon. OSFM’s Juvenile Firesetter Intervention Program Coordinator Judy Okulitch has worked for years to get toylike lighter bans on the state and national level. “This has been a long road to success,” said Okulitch.

“It’s taken a lot of hard work by many people but now we can rest a little easier knowing these dangerous tools that are so attractive to children will be removed from retail shelves in Oregon.” The bill becomes effective 90 days after the Governor’s signature and would make Oregon the third state to ban toylike lighters, after Maine and Tennessee. Fourteen other states are considering similar bans.

The National Association of State Fire Marshals as well as The Lighter Association, a national trade group, is supporting an effort to ban novelty toylike lighters across the country.
