  FOGLE, John Meyers 01/04/05 The New Republic
  September 8, 1918 -  January 4, 2005
  
    John Meyers Fogle, 86, of East Wenatchee, Wash., passed away Tuesday, January
  4, 2005, in Central Washington Hospital.
    He was born September 8, 1918 to John and Emma (Meyers) Fogle at Garrett.
    John was eleven years old when the depression hit his coal mining hometown of
  Garrett. He completed a tour of duty in the U.S. Navy during World War II and
  for a time raised three children by himself.
    Working hard and saving money was his highest priority. John was a
  disenfranchised Republican who spoke against our rising national debt and
  raiding of social security. John's generation did not talk about feelings or
  what ifs, they worked and saved for themselves and their families. 
    Everyone who came in contact with John rapidly came to understand his values
  and interests. As a person who valued his privacy, he was always a gentleman
  and enjoyed a good one on one conversation.
    John grew to love the outdoors from fishing with his dad and later in life
  hiking and worked on the trails around Denver, Colorado. He loved the
  snowcapped Rockies. As the years progressed and health issues became a focal
  point, John was able to concentrate on his financial investing hobby as an
  all-consuming passion. He will be missed by all those he touched. Goodbye John.
    During his life he earned a B.S. in geology, worked as a hotel credit manager
  for the Hilton hotels and was a member of the Church of the Brethren.
    Survivors include his daughter, Emilie Fogle Overmiller and her husband, Don
  of East Wenatchee; two sons: David J. Fogle and his wife, Susan of North
  Barrington, Ill.; Jamie R. Fogle and his wife, Faye of Brooklyn, N.Y.; four
  grandchildren: Isaac P. and Carter J. Overmiller and Sara and Emily Fogle.
  Funeral services will be held at a later time in Meyersdale.
  Arrangements were by Telford's Chapel of the Valley, East Wenatchee.
