Kristine Susan Cavaille
Kristine Susan Cavaille
was born Jan. 5, 1949, in
Quincy. She died unexpect-
edly in Chico on June 18,
2011.
Kristy and her family, in-
cluding her aunt, uncle and
cousins, lived in Cromberg
until midway through the
third grade. The two families
operated the general store,
post office and cabin rentals
in Cromberg.
Kristy, being the only girl
out of six children, learned
to shoot a basketball and
catch and hit a baseball as
well, and perhaps better,
than her brothers and
cousins.
In 1957 she moved with her
family to Blairsden and at-
tended Portola Elementary
School.
Her years in the Portola
school system were fruitful
and enjoyable. She was an ex-
cellent student who enjoyed
many friends and in 1967
Kristy was crowned Home-
coming Queen for' Portola
High School. She was physi-
cally active and was consid-
ered one of the better
skiers/racers at the Johns-
ville Ski Hill. Skiing came nat-
urally to her with a style that
was easy and effective. She
successfully competed in sev-
eral races.
Kristy attended Chico
State later that year but be-
cause of ongoing physical
ailments that stayed with
her until her death, she
moved to the Bay Area to
work. With a new group of
friends, she left the states to
tour Europe. She stayed and
worked in Switzerland for
over a year and visited sev-
eral European countries. Up-
on her return to the United
States, she again worked in
the Bay Area and then on to
Sacramento, Indian Valley
and Mohawk Valley.
Kristy had many talents
and enjoyed artistic endeav-
ors such as sketching, paint-
ing, woodworking and pho-
tography.
Over the last 30 years she
suffered from chronic arthri-
tis, back problems and heart
irregularities. On Saturday,
June 18, she died of heart
failure.
Kristy is survived by her
mother, Helen, and her two
brothers, Edward and
Michael. She was an aunt to
Brodie and Tanner Cavaille.
She was preceded in death
by her father, Rene Cavaille.
Kristy is, and will always
be, dearly missed.

tied Ed Hall Jr.
Mary Ann, Ed and their

Mary Ann loved the out-
doors and, together with her
family and friends, camped,
fished, hunted, rode snow-
mobiles and helped her fami-
ly grow in the snow covered
mountains. She was a mem-
ber of the original 49er Ski
Club and made frequent
weekend trips to the Old Yu-
ba Pass and Johnsville ski
resorts, often helping out in
the local competitions. She
was a 4-H leader, and pa-
tiently and lovingly taught
the local children. Mary Ann
learned to play piano at an
early age and their home
was always filled with music
and children.
She later became a teacher
and tutor for those with
learning disabilities at Sier-
raville Elementary School.

special people she worked
with. Later she married
Doug Garton and together

ing business and lived year-
round at Webber Lake. She
was an excellent marksman
and equipment operator and
enjoyed the challenge of

sons Eddie and Chuck Hall;
daughter Dixie Lee and son-
in-law Robert Higgins;

nifer, Bailey and Karly; and
