Live Christmas tree to be dedicated to Dick Kelson

October 28, 2011
At 11 a.m. Saturday, December 17, "The Village of Bonners Ferry" will dedicate a live Christmas tree to the memory of life-long resident Dick Kelson, who died at the age of 77 May 16, 2011, while tending his nursery on Deep Creek Loop.

The dedication will coincide with activities being organized as part of the Village of Bonners Ferry's "Gingerbread Winter Village" celebration, in remembrance of a quiet but stalwart man who contributed much to the community he loved.

Dick was born in Bonners Ferry September 2, 1933, and except for stints at school and serving in the U.S. Navy, he spent most of his life in Bonners Ferry and Porthill.

The dedication ceremony will take place in front of the Bonners Ferry Visitor's Center, and everyone who knew him is encouraged to attend.
