THANKS TO THE PPP PRESIDENT--DALE BARNETT

DALE BARNETT PRESIDENT OF PEOPLE PRESERVING PETEETNEET (PPP)
THANKS FOR ALL THAT YOU DO FOR PETEETNEET

     The People Preserving Peteetneet Executive Board and Board of Trustees would like to take this opportunity to thank our President, Dale Barnett for all that he does for the Peteetneet.  He always sees what needs to be done and then he usually takes it upon himself to take care of the problem or the situation himself without bothering anyone else.. 
     He has been involved with the new mission bell monument that has been erected on the southeast corner of the building.  He donated the original California Mission Bell that an uncle gave him many years ago.
     The new bell tower was erected under his direction with a number of volunteers donating their time and talents to erect the new additon.  Dale had assembled the brick and stone work and a local mason donated the work to complete the base of the tower.
     Dale created the metal top and the bracket for the bell.  He later had a beautiful plaque made to tell the history of the bell.
     Dale also had a plaque made for the new gazebo and this will be installed as soon as the weather permits.
     Everything Dale does for the Peteetneet shows that love that he and his late wife, Gloria, had for this beautiful old building.
     Thanks again, Dale, for all that you do.  You are appreciated by everyone who volunteers their time at the museum.

There are designs embroidered on it also of a spider ai»d web, and insects which are Victorian symbols believed tq bring you good luck. These special designs were drawn by Liz and embroidered by Dee. It was quilted by Lynn Peterson.

SHIRLEY STEVENSON

    Shirley learned to embroidery at a young age from her grandmother. She truly learned the art of beautiful handwork throughout her life and she shared this talent with many friends and family. She loved the art of quilting and piecing together quilts.
     Her early accomplishments would prepare her for the beautiful quilt work she enjoyed in her later retirement years. Some of the first quilts she made were what she called her utility quilts. Those were made and shared for practical reasons. But her favorite quilting season in life came when she joined several quilt guilds and it was during this time that she became a skilled artist. Her favorites were her "Red" work quilts and scrappy quilts. She always had a project going and another two or three in line.
    She truly was happiest when her hands were busy creating another quilt. With each challenge and project completed, she found satisfaction in the beautiful work she was able to accomplish. One of the most difficult things she endured in the last year of her life was to no longer be able to do her quilting and piece work. It is an honor to have her work displayed and shared with family and community. That would have brought her joy.
