Cameron County Community Chest 2024 Fund Drive – Dec. Update

 

Cameron County Community Chest 2024 Fund Drive – Dec. Update 

We are 8 weeks into the 2024 Fund Drive. We have had a great start. Through Dec.29th we have collected $13,887 toward our $16,600 goal. Thanks to all who have contributed. This drive will run through September 30, 2023.

 Watch for monthly updates. Each month we will feature a write up on one of the organizations that the Cameron County Community Chest contributes to. This month’s feature will be the Cameron County Recreation Center.

 Cameron County Recreation Center provides many different services to the local community. It is the mission of the recreation department to provide quality spaces, equipment, and opportunities for recreation to the residents of Cameron County. In doing so we hope to encourage healthy, educational, and constructive outlets to members of the community, especially our youth. 

The game room is open to members (ages 8-18) throughout the week and offers a variety of table games and electronic gaming. The Membership cost is $10.00 for one year. The game room may be reserved for private use and there are other rooms available for meetings and parties, all at a minimal fee. Tables and chairs can be used (when available) as well as outdoor party games. There is no charge for use by non-profit organizations. Locals hold regular fitness classes, and other public events are sometimes held at the center, often in coordination with community partnerships. Please contact the center for more information, visit camcorecreation.redesk.com, or check them out on Facebook at Cameron County Recreation Center.

 The Recreation Center hopes to continue to collaborate with the 4-H program to provide out of school programs for youth ages 8-18 as well as summer 4-H programs. Summer participants are able to enjoy time at the South Park and Third Street Playground. The playgrounds are supervised; participants are given the opportunity to participate in many collaborated activities including presentations from many community organizations, trips to Sinnemahoning State Park and the Elk Viewing Center, programs at Sizerville State Park, arts and crafts, STEM activities, and lots of other fun programs. The goal is to provide as many fun and educational programs as possible. Cameron County Recreation is also responsible for organizing the girl’s and boy’s 4 th through 6 th grade elementary basketball program. The County has also been working with the Center to help revitalize the old landfill on May Hollow Road. The land will be utilized as a dark skies and wildlife viewing area. 

Cameron County Recreation Center is funded by the County, Emporium Foundation, and the Community Chest. The 4-H and summer programs are funded entirely by grants from the Emporium Foundation. For questions about any of the programs that are provided please contact the Recreation Director, Sophie Fragale by phone (814) 486-9378 or by e-mail at camcorecreation@gmail.com. 

No donation/memorial is too small. Please send your tax-deductible contributions to: Cameron County Community Chest, PO Box 134, Emporium, PA 15834 Attn: Judd Schager. Help to support the Recreation Center, Community Nurses, Red Cross, Friends of the Library, the Package Team, Garden Club, Special Community Requests, Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, 4-H, Sylvan Heritage and the SPCA. 

 The Cameron County Community Chest Board of Directors wishes everyone a very Happy New Year

Patricia A. Harrier

 

Patricia A. Harrier, 64, of Austin, passed away Wednesday (December 27, 2023) at her home in Austin with her husband by her side.

Born May 18, 1959, in St. Mary's, Pat was the daughter of Elmer and Betty (Heivly) Stengel. She grew up "on the hill" in a family-built pink house in Emporium.

Pat is a 1977 graduate of Cameron County High School, and she attended the University of Pittsburgh at Bradford. She served as Township Secretary for Shippen and Roulette Townships for many years.

Pat loved music and attending concerts with her husband Bill. A self-described hippie, Pat could often be found flashing a peace sign while singing and dancing to her favorite songs. She also enjoyed gardening and loved animals, especially her cats and dog Whitman.

Pat is survived by her beloved husband H. William Harrier. They married on January 27, 2006, and have been inseparable since.

In addition to her husband, she is survived by three children. She was a fiercely loving mother of two sons, Dustin Newcombe of Los Angeles, CA, and Andrew Beck of Albion, and one daughter, Amanda Beck (William) of Monroeville. She is survived by one grandson, Marshall, whom she cherished dearly.

She is also survived by several brothers and sisters, Ronald Stengel of Valley Forge; Cathy Kwasneski of Rochester, NY; Connie Wolfel and Susan Polinick, both of Emporium; and Edward Stengel of Philadelphia, as well as many nieces and nephews. She will be missed by close friend Raymond Lindsey of Austin.

She was preceded in death by her parents, daughter Stephanie Beck, and brother Jeff Stengel.

Memorials may be made to the Teachers Pet Rescue, 19 Blackberry Lane, Coudersport, PA 16915

Following her wishes there will be no visitation or services at this time.

Support for Bill Harrier

 

To the friends, family, and students of Bill Harrier,

Mr. Bill Harrier lost his beloved wife Pat Stengel Harrier in the early morning hours of December 27th, 2023. Bill spent his time lovingly caring for her as she faced many health issues in recent years.

Mr. Harrier has taught generations of Panthers at Austin and continues to serve as a substitute teacher for the current generation. He has ignited the passions of countless students to love history, reading, hockey, and geography among a host of other things. Most of all, Mr. Harrier has shown his love for others, even those who are different or difficult to love, and those ripples continue to be felt today.

Let us return the love, compassion, and understanding Mr. Harrier has shown us by helping him to pay for a funeral for his wife Pat. He has been facing some health issues in recent years as well, and this gift would help alleviate some of the financial stress and burden he is facing.

Monetary donations can be dropped off at the Austin School.

We love you Mr. Harrier ❤️ 
Austin Area School District is organizing this fundraiser.

Glenn T. Gutgsell

Glenn T. Gutgsell, 94, of Emporium, PA passed away at UPMC Cole, Coudersport, PA on Saturday morning, December 23, 2023. He was born June 16, 1929 in Grand Rapids, MI, a son of the late Norman and Frances DuQuette Gutgsell. On November 8, 1952 at St. Mark Catholic Church he married the late Alice Hornung.

Glenn graduated from Galeton High School in the class of 1947. After high school, he served with the U.S. Air Force for 6 years. He was stationed in Japan, during the Korean War and honorably discharged as a Staff Sergeant. Glenn retired from Cameron Manufacturing as a machinist where he had worked for many years. He also drove school bus and was the weekend security guard at Sintered Metals for many years. Glenn served as a past commander of the VFW Post 6221, was a past Exalted Ruler of the former Emporium Moose Lodge, and served as an officer in the Cameron County Bucktail Rod and Gun Club. Glenn also was a deputy game protector under Norm Erickson. He was a member of Potter County Historical Society and a life member of the Cameron County Historical Society. Glenn was an active member of St. Mark Catholic Church.

Glenn was a kind and gentle soul dedicated to his church and faith, which helped to keep him strong. He loved to tinker, fix and resell; if you ever needed anything, he had it. He was always researching the history of Cameron and Potter Counties, which kept his mind sharp. He had a deep love for the outdoors, especially during hunting and fishing season with his brother, Jerry. You never knew what was curing in the fridge. "Papa G's" greatest love was his grandchildren and great-grandchildren. His eyes would light up upon seeing them no matter how he felt that day.

Glenn is survived by four daughters, Rea Ann Mallery (Bob), Portville, NY; Frances B. Klock (Randy), Pleasant Gap, PA; Pamela Keirle (Steve), Myrtle Beach, SC; Regina Smith (Bill), Emporium, PA; 13 grandchildren, 20 great grandchildren; brother, Mark Gutgsell (Dottie), Coeur D' Alene, ID; sister, Venita Myszkowski (Jerry), Simi Valley, CA.

In addition to his parents and wife, he was preceded in death by a son, Matthew G. Gutgsell; two brothers, Dean and Gerald Gutgsell; sister, Mary Erickson.

The family will receive friends on Thursday morning December 28, 2023 at St. Mark Catholic Church, 235 E. 4th St., Emporium, PA from 11:00 AM until the time of Mass at 12:00 PM, with Rev. Paul S. Siebert, Pastor, as Celebrant. A Military Service will follow by the Cameron County Memorial Detail.

Burial will be in the Germania Cemetery, Germania, PA. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to the Cameron County Bucktail Rod and Gun Club, Carl Carlson, 125 E. 5th St., Emporium, PA 15834. Or Germania Cemetery Perpetual Care, in care of St. Eulalia Catholic Church, 6 Maple St. Coudersport PA 16915.
