Distinguished Young Women show their stuff

Distinguished Young Women

MOSES LAKE — The fire department places a maximum on the number of people who can fit into the Moses Lake High School auditorium, a maximum that was nearly met Saturday night. Fortunately, there is no cap on the amount of beauty, talent and achievement that can be packed into the building. If there were, the seven young ladies who participated in the Distinguished Young Women pageant would undoubtedly have exceeded it.

‘Where I live’

Museum show features cross-section of Central Washington

MOSES LAKE — Jan Cook Mack covers a lot of ground with her art. “She has such a wide range of talent,” said Angela Hunt, a staffer at the Moses Lake Museum & Art Center. “She can paint people, landscapes, through rocks, anything and make it look good.” Mack’s current exhibit at the museum, entitled “This is Where I Live,” features a wide cross-section of her work. There are enormous sweeping landscapes, portraits of people she knows and still lifes of fruit. Mack, who lives in Wenatchee, grew up in the U.S. and Taiwan, according to the mini-biography posted at the museum. She established herself as an artist in New York City and moved to Eastern Washington in 1986. The show opened on Aug. 19 and runs through Sept. 23. A reception was held Friday, but it was unclear at press time whether Mack would be present for it. As the title suggests, much of Mack’s work on display showcases the unique beauty of her adopted home, the Central Washington coulees and palisades.

Rosalinda Uvalle

It is with heavy hearts that the family of Rosalinda (Rosa) Segundo Uvalle writes this testimony to her life. Rosalinda (beautiful flower) was born (and raised) in Texas on Aug. 22, 1960. After a brave fight with cancer, Rosa left us to be with her Lord on the morning of Dec. 24, 2022. Rosa never met a stranger. She had a gift for making friends wherever she went. She was a friend to and loved by so many. Rosa looked for the positive in people and in all situations even the one at hand. Rosa had an infectious smile (and a great sense of humor) and brought light to any room she found herself in. A strong woman, Rosa had a strong faith in her Lord. While she fought hard to stay on this earth for those she loved, due to that strong faith, she was not afraid to meet her maker. She would have wanted you to know that she went peacefully with her family constantly by her side; the second most important thing to her. Rosa could never have children of her own, but she found her family in her marriage to her husband. Rosa was an integral part of her stepchildren’s and grandchildren’s lives.

Dennis Hall

Dennis G. Hall, 65, passed away unexpectedly on Nov. 30. He was born in Tacoma, Washington on Oct. 19, 1957, to Anthony “Tony” J. and Gertrude “Trudy” A. Hall. A celebration of life will be held after the new year (date to be determined). Dennis was a loving father of five, grandfather of one and friend to many. He was always up before the sun and the first to say “Good morning” and give a smile; therefore, he had earned the nickname Mr. Morning. He married the love of his life Patsy L. Conner on Sept. 15, 1979, in Othello, Washington. Shortly after, they moved to Moses Lake, Washington to create a loving home and raise a beautiful family.
