While growing up in Trinidad, Linda was obsessed with having a horse. Her sister, Lois, fondly remembers Linda wanting to ride around on sticks or the goats. Finally, when she was a teenager, Linda got her first horse-Prince-a beautiful palomino gelding. Linda loved Prince and enjoyed riding him bareback on her parent's place in El Moro. Upon graduation from college from Adams State College in Alamosa, in 1964, Linda moved to Raton, where she began teaching at Raton High School. She taught English and literature. A few years after she began teaching, Linda and her mother Louise bought 100 acres on the north side of Raton and Linda was finally able to realize her dream of owning a place where she kept horses and other pets. It was there that Linda was able to enjoy caring for Prince, No Doze and numerous other horses she came to acquire. It was Prince that because of his sweet disposition was the horse chosen to give rides to every niece and nephew that visited Grandma and Aunt Lynn's home. In addition to horses, Linda loved all animals and was an active member of the Raton Humane Society. She was a big proponent of spaying and neutering pets and more than one unsuspecting stray barn cat got a new home and a snip snip. Linda was a charter member of the Raton Rodeo Association for many Pyears, which held its first PRCA-sanctioned rodeo in 1979. She designed the now familiar logo of the association (a stirrup with a boot indicating a mounted rider). She was secretary of the association from 1979 through 1988. Besides her service as secretary, Linda served at different times on many other committees and through the years was involved in nearly every project undertaken by the rodeo association. After 26 years of teaching, Linda retired at 47 and went on with the next phase of her life, where she could spend more time with her beloved horses. In 2004, Linda decided to pursue her dream of owning a Horse Motel. She took out a loan, built some barns, and started Jackson Stables catering to the horse stabling needs of overnight boarders as well as locals needing a clean, safe, friendly atmosphere to house their horses. She spent long, exhausting hours running her business, but she loved every minute of it. Linda was a renaissance woman. She loved art and painted several paintings some of which she kept and others that she gifted to family and friends. She also loved to collect the artwork of local artists such as Marv Newton, Dino Cornay, and Keith Avery. In addition, Linda appeared in the December 2010 issue of Western Horseman in a series written by Tim Keller called Women of the West. Linda was preceded in death by her father Leonard Jackson, mother Louise (Goslar) Jackson, brother Lyle Ray Jackson and sister Lorraine Marie Goodyear. Linda is survived by her sister Lois and her husband Earl Beard of Gladstone, N.M.; her brother-in-law Bill Goodyear of Springer, N.M.; her sister-in-law, Norma Fricke of Columbus, Neb.; her nieces Sherry Louise Goodyear-Romero and her husband, James and their daughter Jordan of Springer; Kaye Lynn Goodyear-Blevins and her husband Tim of Springer; and Rhonda Jackson of Omaha, Neb.: her nephews Larry Jackson and his wife Sarah Lynn of Columbus, Neb.; and Kenny Jackson and wife Annette of Columbus. She is also survived by numerous grand and great grand nieces and nephews. Linda was the kind of person who enriched the lives of all who knew her. As her nephew-in-law Tim Blevins put it, What a remarkable woman! She was doing it before it was common for women to be self-sufficient, and she lived out her dream. She will be missed by all who knew her. Memorial services will be Saturday, Dec. 15, at 1 p.m. at the Raton Middle School Gym with Pastor Ellen Swain officiating. After the service, please join the family and friends for a potluck reception at the middle school. Arrangements and celebration of Love for Linda L. Jackson are under the direction of the Yaksich-Long Funeral Home of Raton.

Jackson, Ray R.
Ray R. Jackson - Wray Rattler - October 9, 1903 - Ray R. Jackson, employed in the wire mill of the C.F. &I. company at Pueblo, died September 29th, on his nineteenth birthday, of injuries received by contact with the machinery. He was a graduate of the Colorado Springs high school, his father being J.M. Jackson, former treasurer of El Paso county.
Jackson, Robert A.
Robert A. "Bob" Jackson - Pueblo Chieftain - July 28, 2012 - Pueblo loses one of its 'finest citizens' - The mark Robert "Bob" Jackson left on Pueblo isn't hard to find. A successful businessman, civic and political leader. A foundation, youth camp and conference room that bear Jackson's name. A three-term state legislator, Jackson influenced water law and was a strong voice in the early discussion of Colorado hosting the Winter Olympics. He was a heavyweight in politics and in the Democratic party. He was a mentor and advisor for younger politicians. The lifelong Puebloan died Friday at the age of 84. "He was just such a special person here in Pueblo. We were lucky to have him as long as we did. He was definitely one of Pueblo's finest citizens," said Maggie Divelbiss, the former director of the Sangre de Cristo Arts and Conference Center. Jackson served on the center's board and was integral in fundraising. A conference room there is named after him. The YMCA's summer mountain camp between Rye and Beulah, Camp Jackson, also is named for him after he donated $250,000 in 1978 for improvements. And either through him or his foundation, the Jackson Foundation, millions -- "low millions" is how he reluctantly phrased it in a 2011 article -- have been donated to Pueblo groups and organizations. "Bob Jackson was one of the most generous folks in Pueblo that I know who contributed so much to this community," said Bob Rawlings, a close friend and the publisher and editor of The Pueblo Chieftain, where Jackson sometimes served on the editorial board. "He represented Pueblo officially in the state Legislature and did innumerable philanthropic contributions to local charitable groups and political groups. He was one of Pueblo's outstanding citizens and we will miss him greatly." The son of an auto dealer owner, R.L. Jackson, Jackson's career with the company began at ground level. He was not a college graduate, but took over when his father retired in 1956. Eventually, a young car salesman by the name of Tony Fortino joined the business, which became Fortino & Jackson Chevrolet. Their partnership proved fruitful as both men went on to be charitable community leaders. They sold their Downtown dealership to the Spradley family and it is still in business today on the North Side. In the late 1960s, Jackson, a Democrat, ran for the state House and served three terms. "Bob Jackson will go down in history as an integral part of Colorado as far as water law is concerned," said Ray Kogovsek, a former state legislator and U.S. congressman. "Bob was the go-to person for a lot of legislators. When it came time to rewrite Colorado water law, a good portion of that water law was rewritten in the late '60s, and Bob Jackson has his fingerprints all over it." Kogovsek and Jackson served together in the Legislature and commuted together to Denver for work. Kogovsek credited Jackson for influencing leaders against a Colorado host bid for the Winter Olympics in the 1970s. "He started to tell people, started long and hard, why Colorado shouldn't host the Winter Olympics. He went through all the reasons why it wasn't a good idea -- the economics, infrastructure -- and that he couldn't support it," Kogovsek said. "He would continue to talk and speak against it and the more he did, the more people listened. Minority leader Dick Lamm (who later went on to be governor) started to listen to him and picked it up and ran with it. The idea of not going with the Winter Olympics was Bob Jackson." Jackson chose to retire after three terms for family reasons. His political career didn't end, though. Political leaders, those already in office and those wanting to run, sought his counsel. "They came to Bob and asked his opinion and wanted his thoughts, and certainly wanted his support," Kogovsek said. "Just saying Bob Jackson is one of my supporters, that was golden." Jackson was Sal Pace's campaign treasurer when he first ran for the state House. Pace is now running for the 3rd Congressional District. "I wouldn't be where I'm at today if Bob Jackson hadn't helped me out," Pace said. "He was my mentor. He always advised me about water law and how to talk to The Chieftain editorial board." U.S. Sen. Mark Udall issued this message Friday about Jackson: "Bob served the Pueblo community as a businessman, state lawmaker and philanthropist. My condolences go out to his family and friends. His death is a loss to his community, but his service will endure as an example for others in Pueblo and across the state." In 1997, Jackson was appointed by then-Gov. Roy Romer to head the Colorado State Fair's Board of Commissioners. He was charged with bringing the expo into the state system. Jackson did this with the help of then-Romer staffer Chris Wiseman, who is now the Fair's general manager. "What a mentor he was. He was one of the smartest people I ever met. He really set the tone and direction of the Fair back then. The thing he did was, Bob understood the economics and knew the Fair would need state funding," Wiseman said. "Bob was always someone I could call for advice. Every year at Fair time we got a call from him wishing us well. And I always got a nice call at the holidays. That's a tremendous loss for the city of Pueblo." Politics and work aside, Jackson was a pilot, an interest of his father's he took up. Jackson flew recreationally, made trips to the West Coast and Illinois, but enjoyed flying around the Pueblo region. Jackson is preceded in death by his wife of 59 years, Nancy. The couple had three children. Funeral arrangements are pending through Montgomery & Steward Funeral Directors. Pueblo Chieftain - August 1, 2012 - Robert A. "Bob" Jackson passed away July 27, 2012, after a lengthy and debilitating illness. Preceded in death by parents, Reimer L. and Margaret W. Jackson; and loving wife of 56 years, Nancy J. Jackson. Survived by children, Carol Jackson-Hilton (Bill), David M. Jackson (Mary Lou) and James L. Jackson (Alice); grandchildren, Robert P. (Eva), Patrick R. (Corinne), Stephen W., James R., Ashley L. and Brian T.; and great-grandchildren, Zoe, Leo, Max and Anastasia. He also leaves behind Rosalie Rivas, caregiver and loving friend. A gentleman, businessman and politician, Bob provided leadership to the community of Pueblo and Colorado. Serving on numerous boards and committees, he began his career with the purchase of the Chevrolet dealership from his father. Jackson Chevrolet, which became Fortino-Jackson Chevrolet, served this community for almost 70 years. Elected to the state Legislature in 1968, he was a state representative for two terms but his influence in the political arena did not end there. He was appointed to numerous state boards, which included the Water Conservancy District and State Fair Commission. He was always sought out by others for advice and counsel as he had an astute mind in dealing with a great many issues. Not only did he serve at a state level but he was asked to serve on numerous local boards throughout his lifetime. Being instrumental in bringing the Sangre de Cristo Arts Center into existence, he served on its board for a number of years, donating his time and money to making it one of the centerpieces of this community. He also established the Jackson Foundation, which has granted millions of dollars in support of local charities and causes throughout Pueblo, many times giving advice and counsel to those services as well. His personal, civic and professional awards are too many to list but those recognitions serve as a testament to the outstanding individual he was and the asset he was to this community and to this state. He will be truly missed by family, friends and associates. There will be no viewing. Service, 11 a.m. Friday, Aug. 3, 2012, at Praise Assembly of God, 2000 Troy Ave., with Pastor Bobby J. Wilson officiating. The family respectfully requests the omission of food and flowers. Memorials may be made to Pueblo Cooperative Care or Sangre de Cristo Arts Center in care of Montgomery & Steward Funeral Home.

Estimates of the deaths last night included 10 bodies reported to have been recovered on the St. Charles Mesa and a number of bodies not yet recovered but declared by searching parties to have been located under water and debris which made their removal impossible. Ray McCarthy, acting coroner, announced today that no inquests would be held over the bodies of the flood victims. "The flood was an act of God. No inquest is needed to determine that," he said. El Paso County Democrat June 10, 1921 Former C. S. Man is Flood Victim Pueblo The body of Charles Jaeger, 60, formerly of 1030 North Pine street, Colorado Springs, was found in the slush and mud on Fourth street, between Grand and Court avenues. Identification was made by Jaeger's daughter, Mrs. Emma Richards, of this city. Jaeger and his wife moved to Pueblo from Colorado Springs last Friday morning to establish themselves in a tiny grocery store in Pueblo. The couple moved into the rear rooms of the store. That night the great flood came and swept away the store, taking the old couple with it. Mrs. Jaeger, an invalid, is definitely known to be missing.
Jagger, Frances Marie
Frances Marie Jagger - Pueblo Chieftain - May 23, 2009 - Annual memorial to honor Pueblo's homeless who died - Fifteen people, aged 37 to 86, will be remembered at observance - Most of them lived an isolated, lonely life. Some were addicted to drugs or alcohol, others had mental or other health issues. All of them had at one time experienced homelessness and for some, that lifestyle may have contributed to their cause of death. Regardless of how they lived their lives, those who interacted with the 15 homeless men and women who died in Pueblo during the past 12 months want to ensure that they are remembered in death. On Tuesday, friends and family of the 15 individuals are invited to remember their loved ones at the sixth annual Pueblo Homeless Memorial service. The annual service is set to begin at noon near the St. Francis of Assisi statue, located on the far northwestern edge of the riverwalk. "We want to make sure that all these people are remembered and recognized for who they were," said LaTanya Yarbrough, a case manager at Posada agency for the homeless and organizer of the memorial event. "Everybody deserves to be remembered and for some, this is the only way that family and friends can gain closure is by holding a service like this." As part of the event, Yarbrough said family and friends are invited to share their memories about those who have died this year. The Pueblo Veterans Ritual team also will offer a 21-gun salute in honor of the two homeless veterans - Daryl Holt and Thomas Reynolds - who died this year. There also will be music provided by the Wild West Cowboy Church band. A luncheon will follow the memorial service.

Angelic Jaquez - Pueblo Chieftain - April 1, 2012 - Investigators term death 'suspicious' - Police are investigating a "suspicious" death of a 40-year-old woman. The victim was identified as Angelic Jaquez. Pueblo County Coroner James Kramer said the victim also went by the last name of Baca. Jaquez died about 11 p.m. Thursday in a home in the 1500 block of Spruce Avenue , Detective James Olonia said. Police were originally called to the home on a suicide, but detectives are now looking at events leading up to Jaquez's death. "Without discussing too many details, some of the circ*mstances that led up to (Jaquez's death) were suspicious," Olonia said. "Pending results of an autopsy, we'll be able to make a determination as to what took place." Pueblo Chieftain - April 4, 2012 - Death ruled a suicide - Police and the coroner said that the death of a 40-year-old woman last week points to suicide. The Thursday death of Angelic Jaquez, aka Baca, was first labeled suspicious. Authorities now have classified her death as suicide. "Toxicology results are pending and that is an important part of this (but) she certainly died of a ligature around the neck," Pueblo County Coroner James Kramer said. Police Capt. Rich Goddard said there were circ*mstances surrounding Jaquez's death that made it suspicious, but after further investigation police believe it to be suicide. "We're going to rule it a suicide. There's nothing to indicate it's more than a suicide. That's the way it's sitting right now." Goddard said.

Jara, Deanna
Deanna Jara - Colorado Springs Gazette - September 4, 2006 - A Fighter to the End. "Hi, I'm Deanna Jara and I'm honored to be the 2006 honorary survivor for Pueblo County. I was born and raised in Pueblo. I have been married for 27 years to a great man who is always by my side. I have two great sons, 28 and 19, and a beautiful granddaughter (Destiny) who is 10." Deanna Jara starts her story as a breast-cancer survivor with those words, written early this year. Each year, the Komen Race for the Cure names honorary survivors from El Paso, Teller and Pueblo counties. It's a way to put faces to the cause, for women to share their stories and offer a message of hope. And there's cause for hope. Breast-cancer death rates are going down, falling about 2.3 percent each year since 1990. She's gone, but her story can still be told. "My journey with breast cancer began in February 2000. I noticed a lump, called the doctor and went for a mammogram. A few days later, I went to see a breast surgeon. A needle biopsy was done. The results confirmed it was breast cancer." Jara was 38 when she was diagnosed. She underwent a radical mastectomy, followed by chemotherapy, 30 days of radiation and another round of chemotherapy. "She was a fighter," said her mother, Mary Torres. And she armed herself with knowledge, researching her cancer online, asking questions of her doctor, talking to breast-cancer survivors. "She learned so much about what she was going through and what her body was going to be dealing with," said her sister-in-law, Desiree Jara. "She knew it all." Deanna and Desiree were friends even before family ties brought them together. "Deanna and I grew up together. We went to grade school together. And then it just so happened we became sister-in-laws in later years." Desiree remembers Deanna as always positive, always uplifting. "She was just full of life. She had a great laugh, and everyone would tell you that her laughter would make you laugh." Through her treatments, she continued to work in her job as a teller supervisor at Power Credit Union. "She would never stay home and rest in bed," said another sister-in-law, Marci Gonzales. "She was always getting up and going somewhere." "In 2002, I started having really bad back pain. I went to my primary doctor; they said it was a spasm and gave me muscle relaxants. They did not help. I went in for a bone scan and the results were negative. It was then time to see my oncologist; I told him about the back pain and gave him the bone scan results. He ordered an MRI and the results confirmed my cancer was back! This time, it had metastasized to my bones." Once doctors learned the cancer had spread to her bones, Deanna Jara was put on continual rounds of chemotherapy. There was no cure; the hope simply was to give Deanna as much time as possible, said Judy Musso, a friend who was a Race for the Cure honorary survivor in 2003. This time, Deanna had to cut back her hours at the credit union. Though she had used up her sick time, co-workers donated about 500 hours of sick time and vacation time. In October 2003, she took a leave of absence. She hoped to be back in a few months, but ended up taking medical retirement. It was tough on her. "She was really committed to her job, just like she was committed to her family," said Stephanie Cordova, a friend since junior high school. After she left the credit union, she began volunteering her time with the Susan G. Komen Breast Cancer Foundation, helping with fund-raisers and other activities, Musso said. Deanna wasn't the type to stew in self-pity, Musso said. Though fighting for her own survival, she wanted to help others. "As she told me, she had done all the crying she had wanted to do," Musso said. "I have met so many wonderful people during my journey. I attend a couple of support groups, where I have met many wonderful ladies. This is how I got to know about the Komen Race for the Cure. I went to see the race in 2004 as a team member for Pueblo Survivors and Friends. Wow! It was wonderful to see so many people all dressed in pink, walking and running to support the race." Deanna Jara was at the race again in 2005. Not long after, she was asked to be this year's honorary survivor for Pueblo County. It was known that her cancer was terminal, "but when we asked her, she was doing pretty darned good," Musso said. In early June, Deanna Jara went to Washington, D.C., for the National Race for the Cure. Cordova and Desiree Jara went with her. Deanna had always dreamed of seeing New York, so Desiree arranged a quick side trip by bus to the Big Apple. "She just thought it was the greatest thing," Desiree said. "She couldn't believe she was there." From the start, Deanna had been worried most about her sons, Robert Jr. and Jacob, and had prayed she would live long enough to see them both grow up. In D.C., Desiree said, "She told me, 'God granted me that wish, because my boys are grown now and they're men.'" Cordova said Deanna clearly was in pain during her time in D.C. "You could see it in her face, but she never would say anything." Upon returning home, her decline was rapid. She was constantly in pain and walking was a struggle. "I told her, you need to be in the hospital where they can watch you better," her mother said. "But she didn't want to go." Finally, though, she was admitted to the hospital. Musso saw her the day before she died. Deanna had been put in a hospice room. "I told her what a calm room it was, and she said, 'This is a hospice room and I don't want to be in it. I don't want to die here.' Real feisty, you know?" When she began having problems breathing, Deanna was transferred to intensive care. Gonzales was there in her final minutes. There was a reading from the Bible, a prayer. "Deanna wasn't talking at all, and then she opened her mouth and the last thing she said was 'Amen.'" She died moments later. "In 2005, I was at the race again, learning more about Komen. I will be at the race this year, if God permits, as honorary survivor representing Pueblo County. I will continue to spread the word and raise money for Komen."

Jenks, Dean N. (Lieut.)
Lieut. Dean N. Jenks - Pueblo Chieftain May 3, 1917 Many Volunteer For Service in State Cavalry Squadron for National Guard May be Raised in This District Pueblo and southern Colorado is to be asked to raise a squadron of the Colorado National Guard, according to an announcement made last night by D. N. Jenks, manager of the Beatrice Creamery, who returned from Denver where he conferred with Major B. H. Brooks, of the guard. If the outlook is favorable after an investigation here Major Brooks will come to Pueblo for the purpose of assisting in recruiting the squadron. The first cavalry has but three squadrons. Two are located in Denver while the other is at Golden and Boulder. Another is needed to bring the number up to the full quota of war strength and the officers are anxious to fill the regiment. As the conscription bill will do away with the volunteer system completely those who desire to see service and to volunteer at this time will be offered an opportunity to join the squadron. Mr. Jenks will confer with local men today with a view of forming the squadron and will also arrange to answer any question regarding the national guard. Pueblo Chieftain - August 26, 1917 Seven Pueblo Men Leave for Camp Officers Training Seven Puebloans were included in the list of 130 men from Colorado who left Denver last night at 10 o'clock in a special train over the Burlington railroad for Ft. Sheridan, near Chicago, where they will enter the second reserve officers' training camp. The candidates will receive training for three months at Ft. Sheridan at the close of which those passing the examinations will receive commissions in the United States Army. Six standard sleepers, one tourist car, a buffet and an observation car comprised the train to carry the prospective officers to the camp. Those from Pueblo were Dean N. Jenks, Ernest P. Rochester, Frank Pryor, Jr., Guy K. Donhar, Alvin E. Nye, Lewis Barnum and Morris Gerber. Pueblo Chieftain - November 28, 1917 Puebloans Receive Army Commissions Former Residents of This City Also Included in List of Those Successful in Passing Examination Two Puebloans and two former Puebloans were given commissions at the officers' training camp at Fort Sheridan
The list of Coloradoans appointed as officers from Colorado at Fort Sheridan follows: First Lieutenants, Infantry - Dean N. Jenks, Denver. Pueblo Chieftain February 6, 1918 City Briefs Gets Membership Card D. N. Jenks, former manager of the Beatrice Creamery, now in the United States army at Camp Kearney, in a letter to the Commerce club received yesterday the membership card which the Commerce club carries free of charge for all members who enlist in the active service of the government during the war. Mr. Jenks says that he expects to leave shortly for Europe and will mail the club a card from London, one from Paris and one from Berlin and only wishes he might be able to mail the last card first. Pueblo Chieftain August 22, 1918 Lieut. Dean Jenks Well Known Here, Killed in Action Lieut. Dean N. Jenks, formerly manager of the Beatrice Creamery Co. branch office here, was killed in action on July 28, according to official word received yesterday by his widow, who resides in Denver. Lieut. Jenks was a graduate of the Third Officer's Training Camp at Fort Sheridan, Wyoming, and held a commission as First Lieut. Jenks was in the employ of the Beatrice Creamery Co. at Denver a number of years before coming to Pueblo and taking charge of the branch office here, which position he held three years, and registered to enter the third officers training camp. He sailed to France early this year and has been on or near the front since. Mrs. Jenks is now in Denver, it is understood, and is employed by the Beatrice Creamery Co. there. Besides his wife, Lieut. Jenks is survived by two children, Dean, Jr., and a daughter a year and a half old. Pueblo Chieftain March 14, 1919 Coloradoan Rewarded First Lieut. Dean N. Jenks (deceased), 7th infantry. For extraordinary heroism in action at Fossoy, France, July 16, 1918. Lieut. Jenks fearlessly led his company in an attack under a heavy bombardment, encouraging his men by his example. He was killed by shell fire while in the performance of this act. Next of kin, Mrs. D. N. Jenks, 2454 Argyle Place, Denver, Colorado. Pueblo Chieftain - March 18, 1919 - City Briefs - Lieut. Dean M. Jenks - A former Pueblo boy, and once manager of the Beatrice Creamery company, has been posthumously cited for bravery in action. Lieut. Jenks was killed by a piece of flying shrapnel during action at Fossoy, France, July 16, 1918. Denver has been the later home of Lieut. Jenks, and his widow resides there, to whom the citation is to be sent. It reads: "For extraordinary heroism in action at Fossoy, France, July 16, 1918, Lieutenant Jenks fearlessly led his company in an attack under a heavy bombardment, encouraging his men by his example. He was killed by shell fire while in the performance of this act." Pueblo Chieftain - March 8, 1999 - Our Past Century, 1918 - 1919 - Pueblo Goes to War and a Deadly Flu Strikes - Look out, Kaiser! Here comes Bessemer!" That was the sign at Union Depot one chilly April morning in 1918 as another contingent of boisterous Pueblo draftees headed off to Army training camps in California and Kansas - just part of the 16,000 Pueblo-area men who registered for the draft in World War I. Pueblo's newspapers were bursting with pride as American soldiers, dubbed "Sammies" by reporters, began heading overseas that spring
It had to be a frightening time for Pueblo families because the newspapers were full of stories of terrible fighting in blood-drenched France. Gas attacks and terrible artillery barrages. Meanwhile, Pueblo's boys were writing home about life in Army camps, letters that often were printed in the papers. Innocent and sentimental accounts of "good chow" and high morale... Pueblo, like the nation, was on an austerity budget to help with the war effort. There were "wheatless" days and "lightless" nights. When the regional federal fuel administrator suggested that Pueblo citizens might want to "go to bed an hour early" or conduct combined church services to help conserve coal, Pueblo churches immediately sent back a terse "no thank you." All the patriotic fanfare, however, was dimmed a little on Feb. 6 when the troop ship Tuscania was torpedoed and sunk, killing hundreds. On board was Pvt. Paul A. Williams of Pueblo. He was the first of 52 local men who would die in the war. Pueblo families had to be anxious as they knew their sons and brothers (as well as daughters who were Red Cross nurses) came ever closer to the endless trenches and carnage of The Front. On March 1, a dispatch from Gen. John J. Pershing's headquarters in France said that Lt. Robert R. Cooper had been wounded in fighting. "Bob" Cooper, a South Sider, was praised for being the "first Puebloan to take a Hun bullet for his country." But April brought news of U.S. troops in heavy fighting in France and suddenly the Army dispatches became terse and grim. The Pueblo newspapers began printing the daily casualty lists. First of a dozen names. Then another 50 names. The stories only gave the soldiers' names and ranks, not their hometowns. The names were divided by categories: killed in action, died from wounds, missing, died from disease, or wounded. On April 10, a frighteningly long casualty list of 400 names was published, taking columns of print. But that would quickly become routine. By July 1, more than 5,000 "Sammies" had been killed and 6,000 wounded
All summer, the fighting raged in Europe, even though it was clear that Germany and Austria were at the end of their strength. Of course, the fresh American units were being pushed into the fighting and Pueblo's boys were now appearing on the lists of the killed: Carl Simonson, Dean N. Jenks, Charles Merriam, William Butt, Steve Lucero, Luther Collins.

Ashley Johnson - Pueblo Chieftain - November 21, 2008 - Victim Rememberd for Loving, Free Spirit - Ashley Johnson 'Gave and Gave and Gave,' Pastor Tells Family and Friends at Memorial Service - Ashley Johnson was remembered Thursday as being an "old soul" and a "free spirit." The 22-year-old Pueblo woman was recalled as being thoughtful, caring and mothering; someone who always had a smile on her face and a kind word to share about others. "She had a very short life, but look what she shared with so many of us. We experienced an unconditional kind of love. We experienced acceptance no matter who you were and what background you came from, Pastor George White told the estimated 250 family and friends who crowded into the George McCarthy Historic Chapel on Thursday for a memorial service for Johnson. Johnson died Nov. 13 in the explosion that leveled the Branch Inn and the neighboring building that housed A Classic Boutique. Johnson was working in A Classic Boutique, 303 S. Union Ave., with her best friend, Jennifer Flower, when what authorities have confirmed was a gas leak led to the explosion. Johnson was trapped in the debris for approximately 90 minutes before she was rescued. She died a short time later at Parkview Medical Center. Flower, one of several others injured in the explosion, was released Tuesday from a Denver hospital. At Thursday's memorial service, a smiling photograph of Johnson sat on a table surrounded by large bouquets of flowers, a single candle and a stuffed monkey, while a diverse crowd that included Police Chief Jim Billings and Fire Chief Chris Riley filled the chapel and an adjacent overflow area. White spoke of how Johnson was a selfless person who freely gave of herself to others. "She gave herself kindly and willingly. She gave and gave and gave," he said. "The greatest legacy we can leave for her today is to care for others the way she cared for us." White talked of Johnson's love of life and her way of living each day to its fullest. He encouraged her family and friends to follow Johnson's example of life and live each day confidently and full of love. "Treat people like Ashley would've treated them with love and encouragement," he said. "She was wise in her wisdom and she passes that on to you today." Johnson is survived by her mother and stepfather, a brother, a sister and a niece.

Johnson, Edwin C.
Edwin C. Big Ed Johnson - Colorado Springs Gazette Telegraph - May 31, 1970 - Big Ed Johnson, Former Governor and Senator, Dies - Denver, Colo. - Edwin C. Big Ed Johnson, who rose from a homesteaded farm to become a three-term Colorado Democratic governor and U.S. senator, died early Saturday. He was 86. His death at St. Joseph's Hospital followed hernia surgery. He entered the hospital earlier this month. Johnson was born to Swedish immigrants in a sod farmhouse and his formal education ended with a high school diploma. The strapping 6-foot-2 Johnson first worked as a railroad telegrapher in Nebraska but contracted tuberculosis. He moved to mountainous northwestern Colorado where he regained his health as a homesteader and carved out one of the most notable careers in public service in the state's history. Johnson, a big bear of a man who looked like an outdoor worker with callouses on his hands, seemed always to have popular appeal to the ordinary citizen. During his career he worked to conserve and increase water and other resources in the West. His political career - during which he never lost an election - started when he was elected a state representative in 1922. He became lieutenant governor in 1930 and in 1932 won the governorship and was re-elected to two more terms, retiring in 1954 to run for a third time for governor. Then past 70, he used a helicopter to campaign in Colorado communities stretched along the Rocky Mountains. He won over Don Brotzman, now a Republican congressman. When Johnson decided against seeking a fourth term as governor, he immediately was named the state's member of the Upper Colorado River Commission. During his tenure, the far-flung Upper Colorado River Project was enacted by Congress, opening the way for major water development in the mountain states. Johnson remained active in politics until just before his death. He headed a drive which beat a constitutional amendment intended to outlaw the union closed shop in Colorado. Johnson was a lifelong sports fan, particularly baseball. He helped revive the Class AA Western League after World War II and served for a time as its unpaid president during the period when minor league clubs were competing with televised major league games. In a recent interview, Johnson claimed being a governor was more difficult than being a U.S. senator. A senator has a lot of time to reach conclusions and develop programs, he said. But a governor must commit himself and make immediate decisions - take a chance and act right now. Johnson's body will lie in the state Capitol rotunda Monday. Funeral services will be in the Scottish Rite Temple in Denver Tuesday. Survivors include the widow, Fern, and two daughters, Mrs. Henry Arrance and Mrs. Robert Howsam, wife of the general manager of the Cincinnati Reds baseball team. Pueblo Chieftain - May 10, 1999 - Our Past Century, 1936 - 1937 - Good Times Begin Returning - They Made a Difference - "Big Ed" Johnson, born in Kansas in 1884, moved to Colorado in 1909 because he had tuberculosis. After beating the disease, he became a legislator from Craig and in 1933 began his first term as governor. He was re-elected in 1934, and in 1936 Colorado sent him to the U.S. Senate. He retired in 1954, but not for long: The Democrats drafted the 70-year-old Johnson for yet a third term as governor. In 1936, Johnson sent the state's National Guard to the New Mexico border to keep out "indigent and alien workers." Even when he was in Washington, Johnson dabbled in local affairs. He was credited with getting interstate 70 extended through Colorado, and eventually, to the West Coast. Before his death in 1970, he said, "Being governor of Colorado was the best - and toughest - job I ever had."

Johnson, Lysander L.
Lysander L. Johnson - Pueblo Indicator - August 9, 1913 - Murder and Suicide - Frank Dohlman, an ex-policeman, shot and killed Constable N. F. Patterson in the Mint saloon at 186 North Union avenue Wednesday last at 5 o'clock p.m., and then seeming to realize the enormity of his crime he shot himself twice in the head and died within two hours. Patterson was shot through the heart and was killed instantly. The trouble is said to have been caused by Patterson serving an ouster notice on Dohlman to vacate the house in which he was living, although at the time Dohlman did not seriously object. He brooded over the affair and went to drinking. As a result he became a murderer and killed his victim in a treacherous and cowardly manner. The deed was a parallel to Policeman Lysander L. Johnson's act who shot and killed Maud Murray in a restaurant in the same locality last spring and then blew his own head off. Johnson was said to have been somewhat off balance and Dohlman was mentally weak from over-indulgence in liquor. Note: This man was buried under the name of Lysander I. Johnson in Mountain View Cemetery in Pueblo, Colorado.

Thomas L. Johnson Pueblo Chieftain July 18, 1917 Pueblo Boy Who Joined Navy Dies Thomas L. Johnson, son of Mr. and Mrs. E. J. Johnson, one of the first to enlist in the United States Navy when war was declared on Germany, is the first Pueblo youth to die in the service since the war began, according to a telegram received yesterday from Pensacola, Florida, where young Johnson died of pneumonia which followed malaria fever. Mrs. Johnson went to the bedside of her son a week ago when naval authorities apprised her of his illness and she was present when the lad died. Johnson enlisted in the Navy on April 12 and was sent to the training school at San Francisco. Later he was transferred to Pensacola. He is survived by his brother, Charles Johnson in Grace, Utah, and his parents living in Pueblo. He will be buried here. Pueblo Chieftain July 19, 1917 Thomas L.

Mrs. Emma J. Johnson, who hastened to her son's death bed by advice of naval authorities, is unable to travel as she is prostrated over the death of her son. Charles Johnson, a brother of Thomas, who lives in Grace, Utah, is now en route to Pensacola where he will attend the burial. Mrs. Johnson is a member of the Monroe Council, American Ladies of Security and the funeral will probably be in charge of the naval authorities and that lodge.

Johnson was given an impressive military funeral, and his remains were laid to rest in the Pensacola National Cemetery. While in the service of the Navy, Johnson evidently made a good impression on his officers who wrote his mother, Mrs. E. J. Johnson, the following letter of condolence: "U. S. S. Huntington, "Pensacola, Florida, July 18, 1917. "Mrs. Emma Johnson, 315 W. 5th St., Pueblo, Colo. "Dear Madam: "The enlistment record of your son, Thomas L. Johnson, seaman second-class, U. S. Navy, shows that he enlisted as an apprentice seamen on April 12, 1917, at Denver, Colo., and that he was rated seamen second-class eighteen days later at the Naval Training Station, San Francisco, Calif. "He has had an excellent record while in the naval service, and his division officer, Lieut. O. O. Kessing, states that he was a man whose character was beyond reproach and made a good impression on his shipmates. "I beg you will permit me to express my sympathy to you in your sorrow. "Very sincerely yours, "John K. Robison, "Capt., U. S. Navy, commanding." C. H.

Pueblo Chieftain January 16, 1919 One More Gold Star Another gold star has been added to the service flag which hangs in the office of the Santa Fe division superintendent in Pueblo. This makes three gold stars there. The latest is for William Kitts, whose mother lives at Rockvale, and was just notified Monday that her son was killed in action during the last days before the armistice. Before going to war, Mr. Kitts was a telegraph operator on this division of the Santa Fe. The other two gold stars on this flag represent C. E. McFarland and T. L. Johnson. Mr. McFarland was a Santa Fe switchman, and went with the railroad regiment sent "over" a year and a half ago; and he died of pneumonia. Mr. Johnson who went from the Santa Fe's Mechanical Department, was with the Navy, and died at Pensacola more than a year ago.

Johnny Jones Pueblo Chieftain February 16, 1919 Pueblo Boy Is Fatally Hurt near Cotopaxi Man Identified to Be Johnny Jones, 1438 Cypress, in Dying Condition With his skull fractured, his left leg severed, one arm broken, and both hands frozen, Johnny Jones, 22 years old, 1438 Cypress St., this city, was picked up from the Rio Grande railway track at a point near Cotopaxi by an eastbound train yesterday forenoon, and taken to a hospital at Canon City. He died at midnight last night. An inquest will be held by the coroner of Fremont County at Canon City. Canon City's sheriff at once reported the matter to the sheriff's office in this city, though with no details as to the injuries, it was stated however, that the injured man had in his pockets a card indicating his name, a receipt signed by Lucille Harris, 1236 Rio Grand Ave.; a registration card signed by Frank Steck, Goodpasture, and some papers signed by volunteer workers. Sheriff Thomas took up the investigation at once and dug up the information concerning the address of the injured young man, and other particulars including the extent of his injuries. Jones, the sheriff ascertained, has been employed at the co*ke ovens of the Minnequa steel works; he left Pueblo for a trip west in company with Claude Hines, about a week ago. His mother, Mrs. Ellen Jones, resides near Muskogee, Okla., her address being R. F. D. No. 1, Box 45.

Jorgensen, John
John Jorgensen - Colorado Springs Gazette - February 17, 2005 - 8 Die as Jet Crashes Near Pueblo - Circuit City Plane Was Trying to Land in Freezing Rain -Pueblo - Federal authorities today will start looking for the reasons a corporate jet crashed and burned Wednesday morning east of Pueblo Memorial Airport, killing all eight people on board. The victims were the pilot and co-pilot, four employees of Circuit City Stores Inc. of Richmond, Va., and two others. The identities of those killed hadn't been released by late Wednesday. The twin-engine Cessna Citation C560 left Richmond on Wednesday morning en route to Irvine, Calif. It went down at 9:13 a.m. and burst into flames about five miles east of the Pueblo airport, Federal Aviation Administration spokesman Allen Kenitzer said. The crash site was near a dairy farm, west of the Pueblo Chemical Depot, where the military stores chemical weapons. The plane was attempting an instrument landing in freezing drizzle after filing a flight plan citing Pueblo as its destination, FAA spokesman Mike Fergus said. However, Pueblo County Sheriff Dan Corsentino said Pueblo was to be the aircraft's second of two fuel stops. "Two witnesses said they heard loud popping," Corsentino said, adding that they didn't actually see the crash. It was traveling with a companion aircraft, Corsentino said, which was 10 to 12 minutes behind it and landed safely. He did not identify who the second plane's passengers were affiliated with but said some of them boarded commercial flights out of Denver later Wednesday to "return home." He did not give their destination. Sheriff's deputies and investigators initially searched the site for survivors. When they found none, they cordoned off the site and waited for National Transportation Safety Board investigators. Pueblo Memorial Airport Manager Jerry Brienza said the airport has never experienced "a crash of this magnitude." "As far as I know, (the pilot) didn't declare an emergency," Brienza said after talking to air traffic controllers. He described the weather at 900 feet as "broken sky," at 1,400 feet as "overcast" and said the wind was at 7 knots - about 8 mph. A small Mesa jet had just landed at the airport minutes before. "It's not uncommon for aircraft to land safely in this weather," Brienza said. Circuit City confirmed on its Web site that a plane registered to the company had crashed in Colorado and had eight people on board, four of whom were employees of the company. None was an officer, the posting noted, adding no comment would be made pending notification of relatives. "Our thoughts and prayers are with their loved ones during their time of need," Circuit City CEO W. Alan McCollough said in a statement to the Associated Press. Circuit City owns about a half dozen stores along the Front Range and 50 stores within 100 miles of Irvine. The investigation will be conducted by an eight-member NTSB team from Washington, D.C., headed by chairman and CEO Ellen Engleman Conners. The team was to arrive in Colorado late Wednesday. NTSB teams are sent to multiple-fatality or air-carrier crashes. The crash site, which covered a half-mile radius, was bordered by sheriff's and coroner's vehicles who kept vigil over the wreckage and did not remove the bodies until federal authorities arrived. Sheriff's spokesman Steve Bryant said late Wednesday a representative from a local funeral home was on the scene to remove the bodies. Note: There is a memorial stone honoring the plane crash victims in Chico Cemetery in Pueblo County, Colorado. None of the victims were buried there.

Mrs. Prax Zedis Jrigillo - Pueblo Chieftain October 8, 1917 Mystery Surrounds Death of Mother and Daughter - Mystery surrounds the death of Miss Maggie Medril and her mother, Mrs. Prax Zedis Jrigillo near Undercliff. The former, died Saturday and the latter yesterday. The peculiar manner in which the two women, died has caused Corner Dr. Ray Taylor to make an investigation. He was called to Undercliff yesterday when the second woman died and from the investigation made yesterday determined that both women died from taking some sort of powders for headache. Saturday Miss Madril was suffering from a severe headache and took the contents of a capsule. She died shortly afterwards and the indications are that the capsule contained strychnine. The mother, grief stricken, wheat so much that she contracted a headache and took one of the capsules yesterday morning to relieve the pain. She died a few hours later in the same manner as her daughter. Dr. Taylor investigated and believes of the capsules contain strychnine. He has empty capsules and some of the others. Where the capsules were obtained and the circ*mstances surrounding the sale of them to the women will be thoroughly probed by the corner to determine whether or not it was a result of a plot.

Melvin Arthur Jurgens - Pueblo Chieftain - July 13, 2011 - Melvin Arthur Jurgens, Dec. 25, 1927, to July 8, 2011. Melvin A. Mel Jurgens of Grand Junction, left us for his next journey on July 8, 2011, from the comfort of his home. His family was by his side. Mel was 83 years of age. He was preceded in death by his wife, Bonnie Jo; his parents, Claus and Eva Jurgens; two brothers, Robert Rob and Eugene Yukor; and three aunts, Tina, Clara and Margret. Mel grew up in Arthur, Ill. He joined the U.S. Navy in 1945, and served for three years. Upon his return, he met Bonnie. The two wed in 1951, and spent the next 56 years inseparable. They were residents of Grand Junction, Colo., since 1998. Mel's career spans decades. He imparted knowledge and great influence to all who knew him. Mel began working at the stockyards in Chicago and then moved to FS Feed Mill in Mendota, Ill. Mel continued to work as a sales manager and became general manager of DeKalb Feed in DeKalb, Ill. He was eventually given the opportunity to purchase and co-own the business from Mr. Herman Cortelleau, whom he held in highest regard. Also, having served on the Chicago Boards of Trade, Mel went on to become a commodity broker and founded Jurgens Commodities, Inc. The year 1972 brought more business opportunities to Mel, when he purchased Taylor Fence Co. in Pueblo, Colo., and then opened a second office in Grand Junction, Colo., in 1983. Mel was a member of Rotary International for 50 years and a member of the Lions Club for numerous years. One of his passions was being a private pilot, which he began doing when he was 18 years old. He flew his last flight at 82 years old. Mel also was an avid golfer. Many who have known Mel would tell you he was devoted to his family, but he also was a kind- hearted, generous, faithful and ethical man. Although he loved to tell jokes, he could never hit the punch line. He will be missed by all who knew him. Mel's survivors include two children, Todd Jurgens of Grand Junction and Heather Worthinger of Westminster, Colo.; six grandchildren, Rachel, Chelsea, Brennan, Elizabeth, Christopher and Aspen; and four great-grandchildren.

Jurie, Carl A.
Carl A. Jurie - Pueblo Chieftain - February 9, 2010 - Carl A. Jurie, November 9, 1917 - February 7, 2010 - Carl A. Jurie, 92, passed away February 7, 2010 in Pueblo, Colorado. He was born in Henry, West Virginia and raised in Kempton, Maryland. The second oldest of six children, his older brother Stanley died in infancy during the Spanish flu pandemic of 1918. Joining the Civilian Conservation Corps, he participated in the construction of Camp David, Md. He enlisted in the U.S. Army in 1941 and was stationed at Schofield barracks on Oahu, Hawaii, where he witnessed the attack on Pearl Harbor of December 7, 1941. Serving in the 25th Infantry Tropic Lightning Division, he fought in the Guadalcanal campaign and was wounded in New Georgia. Convalescing at the Fort Sam Houston military hospital near San Antonio, Texas, he met Eunice Jeri Tullos, a nurse's aide who became his wife. He mustered out of service in 1945 and enrolled on the G.I. Bill at the University of Colorado in Boulder, where he completed his bachelor's and master's degree. In 1956, he accepted a position as instructor of Geology at what was then known as Pueblo Junior College. He retired in 1980 as associate professor emeritus from what is now known as Colorado State University-Pueblo. He was active for many years in the Pearl Harbor Survivors Association and was a long-time member of the Colorado Mountain Club, the Rockhounds, and the Pueblo Historical Society, as well as being a regular participant in several local dance groups. Carl Jurie was predeceased by his brothers Francis, John, and Ray, and his sister Elizabeth, by his wife Jeri Jurie, and his daughter, Cherie Lyn Jurie Zwick. He is survived by his son Jay (Cindy) Jurie of Sanford, Fla. and by numerous nephews, nieces, cousins, and friends. Cremation has taken place. A memorial service will be announced in the near future. Pueblo Chieftain - February 10, 2010 - Pearl Harbor survivor dies - Carl Jurie, 92, was also a geology professor in Pueblo - Pueblo lost another of its dwindling number of Pearl Harbor survivors with the death of 92-year-old Carl Jurie on Sunday. Jurie was a 22-year-old Army GI at the time the Japanese struck on Dec. 7, 1941. Forty-eight years later in an interview with The Pueblo Chieftain commemorating that "date that will live in infamy," Jurie remembered standing outside the Schofield barracks on Oahu, 10 miles away from the point of attack, when he heard the Japanese planes flying overhead. Jurie said in the interview he remembered thinking: "Geez, those Air Corps guys are out there maneuvering early. Then, they started dropping their bombs." He said he thought if the Japanese knew how much damage they'd done, they probably could have landed troops that day. In anticipation of such an attack, Jurie said he and other "Wolfhounds" of the 25th Infantry began stringing barbed wire on the coral along the beach. The land assault never came. Jurie later shipped to Guadalcanal where he fought for four months before being wounded. Upon his discharge in 1945, Jurie enrolled at the University of Colorado, where he earned his bachelor's and master's degrees. In 1956, he joined the Pueblo Junior College staff as an instructor of geology. He remained at the school through its transition to a four-year college. In 1965, he was among 29 college instructors to study the structure and origin of volcanic rocks in various areas across the U.S. as part of a National Science Foundation program. He also helped in the school, receiving 99 cases of geological books from Colorado School of Mines. Jurie retired in 1980 following a 24-year teaching career. He is survived by a son. A memorial service, which will be handled by Davis Mortuary, is pending.
