 Greg
Quigley
On Tuesday, September 16, 2008 Greg Quigley, 48, beloved husband, father and friend, was taken from us too soon as he was riding his Harley to Quigley, Mont. Greg was born to Carol and Bob Quigley in Lewiston Oct. 6, 1959. He grew up in Headquarters and graduated from Timberline High School in 1977. As a young man, Greg loved spending time on the Weippe ranch of his grandparents, Ellis and Bessie Snyder. One of his proudest moments was winning the team roping competition with his grandpa at the Weippe Rodeo in 1980. Greg rode his much-loved horse, Chief. Greg moved to Lewiston shortly after graduating from high school and got a job at Bruneel Tire. It was during this time that he met the love of his life, Joan. The couple married Jan. 12, 1980, at Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church. Greg and Joan had two beautiful daughters, Alyssa, now 26, and Jenna, 21. Greg started working in the forest industry in the early 1980s. In 1984, he and his family moved to Rowan Bay, Alaska, where he worked for Seeley Logging. In 1987, they moved back to Lewiston. Later, he got a job at Potlatch Corp., where he worked the rest of his life. Greg belonged to the Northwest Timber Workers and lobbied for forest health. He was influential with politicians around the Northwest. Greg died doing what he loved, riding his Harley. He rode his bike all around the West, including numerous trips to Sturgis, S.D. He loved to find obscure, out-of-the-way places. He would rather spend nights in his tent than at a hotel. He loved the freedom that riding gave him. Greg was a member of the Crusaders Motorcycle Club, with whom he took many trips. The club's members were his brothers. The group helped gather donations for the food bank and participated in poker runs for the Lewiston Veterans Home. Greg loved to read all sorts of books. One of his favorite writers was Jack Kerouac, whose books about travel resonated with him. Greg was always there for his daughters. If Alyssa needed a light bulb changed at her house in Twin Falls, Greg would hop on his Harley and be there in a flash. The girls say their dad always had the best advice - he always had the answers. Greg went out of his way to make his wife feel special. He e-mailed her every day to tell her what he loved about her and how special she is. She lovingly referred to him as "Craig," a nickname her dad had given him. Greg had a gift for talking to people and making everyone feel wanted and welcome. He had a sharp wit and was a talented storyteller. He was representative of all the colorful characters he grew up with on the Hill. Greg is survived by his wife, Joan; and daughters, Alyssa of Twin Falls and Jenna of Lewiston; as well as the family dog, Sammie Joan. Greg also leaves behind Grandma Bessie of Lewiston, and parents-in-law, Jerome and Jeanne Schrempp of Lewiston. Sisters-in-law include Barb Baney and husband Don of Lewiston; Nancy Orton and husband Duane of Lewiston; Jill Young and husband John of Glasgow, Scotland; as well as cousin Rachel Johnson and husband Roger of Coeur d'Alene. Survivors also include brother Mike Quigley and wife Dawny of Lewiston. Greg's nieces and nephews include Matt and Tara Baney of Lewiston; Nathan Orton of Portland, Ore.; Marcus Orton of Boise; Elizabeth Young of Glasgow; and Gib, Garner, Denver and Derrick Quigley, all of Lewiston. He is also survived by several great-aunts and uncles, and many friends. A celebration of his life will be conducted at 1 p.m. Thursday at Our Lady of Lourdes in Lewiston. In lieu of flowers, the family suggests memorial donations be made to the Lewiston Veterans Home. There are many comments and memories on the Lewiston Morning Tribune site that should be viewed. go to http://www.lmtribune.com/story/obituaries/24619/ , read and add yours. Greg touched so many people in an amazingly varied walks of life. He was always a welcome face to see at the Union hall, the mill or on the road.

Harley David Casteel, 83 passed away from Alzheimer's disease Sunday, Aug. 3, 2008, at Wedgewood Terrace, Stepping Stones Care Facility in Lewiston. He had been living at the facility for the past four years. Harley was born July 10, 1925, at Orofino, to George and Blanche Oliver Casteel, where he grew up and farmed on Harmony Heights. Harley married E. June Hollingsworth Dec. 20, 1950. They raised three children living in Pierce, Townsite 4, and Headquarters, Idaho. Dad always enjoyed being in the outdoors and loved to spend time camping and fishing on the North Fork of the Clearwater, cutting wood, and driving mountain roads looking for game or huckleberry picking. Dad enjoyed hunting for years but eventually got to the point that he enjoyed looking at wild game more than hunting it. Dad spent many years as a scoutmaster in Headquarters, taking scouts to many spring camps and winter camps, and on a "50-miler" hike that subsisted on, among other food, a massive amount of fish and gallons of Tang. He worked different jobs, including at the creamery in Orofino and at the Ahsahka mill. He eventually landed in Headquarters working for Potlatch Corp. He started out working as a cat mechanic and then eventually went to a salaried job, then shop foreman. At the end of Dad's time with Potlatch, he was shop foreman at Jaype. He put in 32 years with the company. Dad always kept busy after retirement and worked at Barney's gas station on Riverside and was on the Riverside Water Board after retirement in 1985. He also did various jobs for Charlie (Red) McCollister on his property above Orofino. Harley was preceded in death by his parents; his sister, Vy; brothers, Marshall and Arden; and by his daughter, Vicki. Survivors include his wife, June; two sons, David and Elsie Casteel of Great Falls, Mont., and Brian Casteel and Elaine Best of Lewiston; two grandchildren; and four great-grandchildren, soon to be five. A memorial service is scheduled for 11 a.m. Friday at Malcom's Brower-Wann Funeral Home in Lewiston.
