The Cedar City Rotary Club assembled and donated 200 face shields to Intermountain Cedar City Hospital to help protect frontline healthcare workers in Iron County. The face shields are an ongoing project of the Cedar City Rotary Club, which also recently assembled and donated 200 face shields to health- care workers supporting the Navajo Nation. Becki Bronson, Cedar City Hospital Communications Manager, said, “Going through this stressful and unprecedented time makes this donation to our hospital from Rotary even more poignant. It’s hard to put into words what it means to have such an outstanding, loving, supportive community constantly looking for ways to help support our hospital workers. Our caregivers have loved these. They are light and easy to wear, which makes all the difference when you consider all the personal protective equipment our workers must have on. What a fantastic thing for our local Rotary to do for those who are working so hard in such difficult conditions to best protect us.” One of Rotary International’s foundational goals is to fight disease, and Rotary members worldwide are helping combat COVID-19 through this and similar projects.

Tipping is not a science and can be confusing. Reportedly, Utahns are especially cheap when it comes to tipping. It’s easier to figure 10% rather than 14% and, to many, it seems reasonable that a tip should be no more favorable than a faithful tithing payment. I’ve even known people who delete the sales tax before calculating the server tip. At the same time, it is not uncommon for customers to leave no tip at all when picking up a take-out order from a server. The jury may be out on this one; there is certainly a difference between not tipping a cashier at a takeout pizza joint and not tipping a full-service restaurant server who prepared the salad and packaged the three-entrée order with the accompanying condiments.

They can recall the clueless family that allowed their children to litter the floor with crumpled saltine crackers and discarded fries, and then “stiffed” the server for not delivering a fourth Dr. Pepper to one of the undisciplined brats. There are people who also object to the entire concept of tipping. They argue that restaurant owners should pay the servers a decent wage folding the added cost into the meal as is the custom internationally.

In March of 2020, Southern Utah University was prepared to host the Utah Municipal Clerks Association’s Institute and Academy on their campus in Cedar City. The food was ordered, conference supplies were ready and plenty of bottled water was on hand. When the new coronavirus struck the nation and states started following federal shutdown guidelines, the team at SUU Community and Professional Development quickly jumped into action. In June, the UMCA Institute and Academy for Utah municipal workers, city clerks, and recorders was held for the very first time, virtually. All participants, and most of the presenters, participated in the conference through Zoom Video Webinar.

here are many rotten ruts in this world that try to ruin days, weeks, and even years of your life. Often, they aren’t afflictionsT caused by addictions, but by the daily discouraging dilemmas of normal life. Some days are just plain tough; sometimes tougher than you are. That’s when you need a friend, a true friend, to not only lend a hand, but their heart to help you through the storm. I haven’t always been such a true friend. Thankfully, failure (and friends’ forgiveness) has been a meticulous, but merciful teacher as my true friend skills continue to become even better. That being said, I know how frustrating it is when I’m going through a difficult time and a friend nonchalantly asks if there’s anything they can do, as they’re dropping anchor for the night. If I start sharing my troubles I feel guilty for keeping Every true friend should “ remember to focus on the person before the problem. them awake, even if they say they don’t mind. Nevertheless, when we’re reaching out from the depths of our despair, some people can be quite adept at drowning their compassion for our calamity with their counseling. When you’re hurting, a true friend knows that the last thing you need is a courtesy call, or to offer counsel. You need comfort. Yes, they can still offer coun- sel, but where’s the wisdom in not offering any consoling, first? True, you may need some caring counseling, or adamant advice, but every true friend should remember to focus on the person before the problem. It’s better to tackle trouble together. When you focus on the problem, you can get frustrated when your counsel seems to fall on deaf ears. You may give up too soon, thinking there is nothing you can do because they’re not responding to, or recovering, according to your

Maybe a phone call, or text, isn’t enough. Sometimes you’ve got to put down the phone and pick up your car keys, or roller-blades, and go to them. A true friend knows when to be the lighthouse, and when to be the rescue boat; even if they must dismantle their soap box to build that boat. This is important because when you have been hurt, feel like a failure, or are afraid of facing your future, you can endure most anything when you know you’re not alone. Not just having another person being there in person, but being there emotionally and even spiritually. A true friend doesn’t just stand up for you, they stand with you, beside you to the end. If you have that kind of true friend, you know how great it is. If you are that kind of true friend, you know what a great responsibility it is, and also what a great joy it is to be able to help someone in need. That even might be the way i roncountytoday.com you find such a true friend; helping someone else. Iron County Today life Wednesday, July 29, 2020 21 obituaries

he people of Northern Europe are sometimes called the Norse. Long ago, the Norse people believed in many gods and goddesses. Let’s meet some!

Odin was one of the Norse gods. It was said that he created the universe. He was the god of magic, wisdom, war, poetry, and the alphabet.

A Norse origin myth says that Odin and his two younger brothers, Vili and Ve, killed the frost giant Ymir. They used Ymir’s bones, blood, and flesh to form the universe.

The goddess Frigg was Odin’s wife and she alone HEIMDALL could sit with him on his UNIVERSE high seat, or throne.
