MEMORIAM In loving memory of Dale Green i Husband, Father, and Grandfather March 27, 2003 We walked this road of life together for 33 years, but one year ago today you took a path I could not take. I know heaven's gain is our loss and your beautiful voice has joined heaven's choir, but I miss it so much. Every day I feel the void your leaving has left in my life. I miss your wisdom and humor. Your spiritual guidance and great love for God enriched our lives so much.

Nothing can replace your strong arms that made me feel so secure. The good memories of our life together are what comforts my heart. Love, Janice 2686715 NATIONAL UBITUARIES Peggy Bauer SEQUIM, Wash. (AP). Peggy Bauer, a wildlife and outdoor photographer who published dozens of books with her husband, died Tuesday in an automobile crash, police said.

She was 72. Bauer and her husband, Erwin Bauer, shared a lifetime achievement award from the North American Nature Photography Association in 2000. They published about 45 books, most recently "The Alaska Highway: A Portrait of the Ultimate Road Trip" and "The Last Big Cats: An Untamed Spirit," both in 2003. Peggy Bauer was married for seven years with three sons and had done little photography when she met Erwin Bauer, a widely recognized lensman, in Nairobi, Kenya. Both divorced their spouses, moved to Jackson Hole, and married in 1972.

She began learning wildlife photography three years later and before long they were shooting together as a team. Erwin Bauer died about a month ago. Joshua Eilberg PHILADELPHIA (AP) Joshua Eilberg, a former congressman who sat on the House Judiciary Committee during President Nixon's impeachment hearings and was later convicted on federal charges, died Wednesday of Parkinson's disease, a funeral home official said. He was 83. Three months after his defeat for a seventh term, the Democrat pleaded guilty in 1979 to conflict of interest charges in connection with money he received to obtain a federal grant for Hahnemann Hospital in Philadelphia.

He was sentenced to five years probation. Eilberg was an assistant district attorney before serving six terms as a state representative and six terms as a U.S. representative from Northeast Philadelphia. He had done court -appointed work for indigent defendants in the past 25 years and had been executive director of the local Brith Sholom, a Jewish fraternal organization. He also did work for immigrants from Northern Ireland, Israel and the Soviet Union.

Mary Goodhue MOUNT KISCO, N.Y. (AP) Former state Sen. Mary Goodhue, who was narrowly defeated by George Pataki in the 1992 Republican state Senate primary, died Wednesday after a long illness. She was 82. Pataki was a protege of Goodhue's and had worked on her staff before his election to the state Assembly in 1984.

When Pataki, known at the time to have gubernatorial aspirations, decided to challenge Goodhue in the 1992 primary, she was the only woman in the Senate Republican majority and had the support of the chamber's leadership. It was a bitter campaign. Goodhue, who had founded her own law firm, retired in 2002. She was a graduate of Vassar College and the University of Michigan law school. Governor Pataki ordered flags at the state Capitol and across the state lowered to halfstaff in honor of Goodhue.

Gribble, an All-American at the University of Miami, won two NCAA titles at Miami, a gold medal at the 1982 World Games in Ecuador, and set a world record for the 100 fly in 1983.

Nine-year-old Corey Graley, who lives in Rome Township, Ohio, is taking an introductory computer class required for all students at Marshall University. It covers programs such as Excel and PowerPoint.

Corey is the youngest student ever to enroll at Marshall, which offers a variety of early admission options for students who have not completed high school. Fifty or more high school, and more rarely middle school, students take classes each semester, said Martha Woodward, executive director of the John R. Hall Center for Academic Excellence and the Yeager Scholars Program. The students are admitted after a screening process that requires them to meet academic standards and obtain letters of recommendation. Students who are below junior status in high school have to see Woodward for admission.

"People call up and say, 'My child is really smart and needs stimulation, and should he take college The answer generally is no, it's probably not appropriate," Woodward said. "Occasionally, you have a child that yes, this is the appropriate thing, and let's explore and see how it will Corey's mother, Kim, had noticed that he grew bored with soccer and karate. He excelled in the talented and gifted math program at his elementary school and loved video games. She thought he might like computers. "We were trying to find a new hobby," Kim Graley said.

"I told Corey, 'This is a college class. You have to be sure you want to take I think he just needed a challenge." She and her husband, Jerry, couldn't find a children's computer class in their area in southern Ohio, so they turned to Marshall. Woodward had some concerns. How would a child who had already finished a day of school react to a 2 night class? "That's a long time for a child to sit," Woodward said. "We talked about how he would feel being in the class with all the big people.

Not that there would be anyone that wouldn't be nice to him, but there is an intimidation factor." Corey scored 95 percent on his first test, the highest in the class of 30 students, said professor Saleem Salameh. "It seems to me he's getting good help at home, and when he comes to the class, he knows the subject," Salameh said. "He prepares himself well." On the first day of class in January, Salameh thought Kim Graley was the student. "I've had experience before with students who couldn't find a baby sitter and had to bring a child to class," he said. "I told her, 'You can come to the class, and you can bring him any time." "I said, 'He's the and I showed him Corey's ID card," Kim Graley said.

Corey keeps his student ID in his wallet, and he's eager to show it to anyone who asks. Getting the ID card was difficult, Jerry Graley said. "I went into the office, and I said, 'I'm not kidding or anything, but I need to get him an I saw a sign that said you needed to provide a driver's license." "We didn't have it," Corey said. Although she attends class with Corey, Kim Graley is adamant that he does the work. "All the time, he looks at his mother, and she looks at him.

She gives him emotional support," Salameh said. "I think his mother is playing a big role in his Corey isn't sure whether he'll take another college class. Although he has enjoyed learning more about computers, he said he's still looking for a hobby. "I told him I would like to see him in future classes, and he said he wanted to take a year off," Salameh said. "It's not easy going college and school," Kim Graley said.

"No, definitely not," Corey said.
