Monday, March 06, 2017Roland retired from a career at GE of Schenectady as a milling machine operator in 1983 in his words to “Chase the salmon and trout” and he and Shirley pursued their dream of travel and adventure. He was passionate about fly fishing, there wasn’t many streams, lake or pond that he didn’t fish in the Northeast, Canada and even as far as Alaska.His second passion was Whitetail deer hunting. Every Fall you could find him at his camp nestled at the base of Hayes Mountain in Minerva. His favorite season was Fall, he made 19 consecutive trips to Cape Britain Island, Nova Scotia in pursuit of the Atlantic Salmon. In most recent years it was a common thing for him to be on his son’s logging jobs regularly; he loved the smell of fresh cut wood. He often in his younger days cut and split wood to pay for his fishing and hunting trips.Roland was a dedicated husband, father, grandfather and friend to all he loved and he was loved by all. He was well known for wit and humor, his wink and the twinkle of his blue eyes. One of his favorite most recent pastimes was playing with or watching his newest granddaughter Allie.Besides his parents, he is pre-deceased by his wife, Shirley; brothers, Richard and Timothy Mitchell; sister, Marguerite White; step daughter, Linda Mitchell; and grandson, Alfred (Alfie) Sutch.He is survived by his brother, Trent and his wife Judy of Gallaway; daughters, Susan and her husband Fred Sutch of Gallaway, Kathy Palmer of Schenectady; step- daughters, Colleen Cook of Queensbury, Kathy Williams and her husband Mark of Loon Lake, Holly Vaughn and Neal Hubbell of Queensbury; son, Roland Mitchell II and Tammy Bruno of Queensbury; grandchildren, Jenny, Andy and Kyle Mitchell, Scott Mitchell, Stacy Eastman, Jeremy Williams, Travis Cook, Ryan and Justin Vaughn, Rosie Neahr ...
Monday, February 27, 2017The sheriff's office said her boyfriend, Joshua Jackson, was arrested on an unrelated warrant.The death occurred in a remote region of the Salmonberry Trail area, said Sheriff Andy Long. Responders used all-terrain vehicles and hiked about two miles to get to the couple after a third party called 911 shortly before 6 a.m. Saturday to report McVay was injured, deputies said.The zip line stretches across the Nehalem about two miles away from the Salmonberry Bridge on Foss Road, said Lt. Gordon McCraw of the sheriff's office. The couple went on a trail normally taken by experienced hikers, he said.The zip line's seat is a piece of wood, which is connected to the line by a piece of rope, Long said in an email.Officials haven't yet determined ownership of the spot where McVay died, but Long said the area is mostly Tillamook State Forest and includes some private property.He also said he is unaware of any other death in recent memory caused by a homemade zip line in the county. But he said responses occur in the area involving water-related activities, such as people jumping off of bridges into the rivers.McVay, 34, had three children, according to her obituary. She enjoyed the outdoors, went to school in Tillamook and later earned a culinary arts degree. Records indicate she lived in Tillamook.Jackson, 38, was booked into the Tillamook County Jail. Records show he had an outstanding warrant in connection with a 2012 conviction for fourth-degree assault, a felony, and recklessly endan...
