Neoma Loretta (Larrick) Shouse died January 14, 2012, in Twin Falls, Twin Falls Co., ID (age 90).
TWIN FALLS - Neoma Loretta Shouse, age 39 (at least that is all she admitted), passed away Saturday, Jan. 14, 2012.
Neoma was born April 14, 1922, in Craigmont, Idaho, to PR and Marie Larrick. She married Thomas E. Shouse in November 1941. Following the war, they began their farming life in several locations around southern Idaho. During this time, two sons were born, Robert and Gary. Seeking a more stable life, in 1965 Tom and Neoma applied for and got the secretary-manager position at the Twin Falls County Fair. They quickly took on the whole new life of running the “Filer Fair” as it was known in those days. Neoma took on the fair office management and for most of the year she was the fair office 24 hours a day. She remembered where people’s rodeo reserved seats were, what they entered in various fair departments and probably most important, their names. In addition to the inside office tasks, she planted flowers just about everywhere there wasn’t lawn and trees. She put planters in the front of every building so people using the grounds would see pretty flowers. One of her large and long-lasting projects involved planting 100 red roses along the fence south of the office for anyone driving down Fair Avenue to enjoy. These added touches to the grounds gathered comments from not only the local people who came to use the grounds every summer but from those around the entire country who came for the numerous national stock shows, professional rodeo and the Miss Rodeo Idaho contest during the fair. The grounds were used for some event whether that was family picnics, 4-H, FFA, horse, lamb, pig and dog shows almost every summer weekend. Neoma and Tom strived to put the fairgrounds on the map for people around the country for 22 years. Neoma was on the Miss Rodeo America Board of Directors and was honored in the Western Stockman Hall of Fame. In 2001, the fair grandstands were named the Shouse Arena. Neoma was recently awarded a 50-year pin from Twin Falls Chapter 29 of the Order of the Eastern Star and another from the Pocatello Chapter of the Social Order of the Beauceant. Neoma is survived by son, Gary, and Lauren, a daughter that she never had; grandsons, Todd, Steven, Chad and Cory; 11 great-grandchildren; and four, soon to be five, great-great-grandchildren. Neoma was happiest when she had her family and friends around her. In lieu of flowers, she would appreciate donations to the Filer American Legion and Auxiliary, Boys and Girls State program for Filer, Buhl and Castleford. Donations may be sent to Filer Post 47, P.O. Box 66, Filer, ID 83328. Thank you. A service will be held at 11 a.m. Monday, Jan. 23, at Rosenau Funeral Home, 2826 Addison Ave. E. in Twin Falls. A brief graveside service will follow at Sunset Memorial Park. A viewing will be held from 4 to 7 p.m. Sunday, Jan. 22, at Rosenau Funeral Home.

Harold Hunt Stiles
CALDWELL - Harold Hunt Stiles, 87, died at his home in the early morning hours of Feb. 19, 2008. Harold was born April 21, 1920, in Twin Falls, to Floyd and Ruth Stiles, who came to Idaho from Grenola, Kan. Harold attended school in Filer. Harold married Elizabeth Shouse of Filer on July 24, 1938. Harold began working for the Times-News in 1932 as a paper carrier. He worked his way up and eventually became circulation manager and continued in the employ of the Time-News until 1968. He was much respected by his paperboys and their parents. Harold subsequently worked for newspapers in Kennewick, Wash.; Idaho Falls and in Boise for the Idaho Statesman. Harold's passion for motorcycling began as a young boy and led him on many adventures throughout his life. He and his wife, Elizabeth, rode to Dearborn, Mich., in 1942 to pick up a new car. Later, he preferred BMW motorcycles and generally riding alone, with his brother Herb, or one or two friends. Harold also made some rides with his son, Harold. His sister, Maxine Mogensen, and his granddaughter, Kristin Jarvis, also accompanied him on eventful rides. He became an ambassador for the BMW Owners of America and attended many rallies during his retirement years, finally hanging up his helmet when he was 81. Harold served in the Army Air Corps during World War II, serving as a navigator and gunner on B25s. He was about to ship out when the war ended. Harold was also active in the Masonic Lodge of Twin Falls and was a member of the Lion's Club. He collected a few golf trophies along the way. He skied with his children at Magic Mountain and Sun Valley. Harold is survived by his wife, Elizabeth of Caldwell; his son, Harold L. (Valentina) of Caldwell; daughters, Deanna Jarvis of Caldwell and Linda (Tom) Moore of Idaho Falls; two sisters, Maxine Mogensen and Donna Scott, both of Wendell; five grandchildren, Bob (Kim) Guyon, Stephanie Guyon, Mark (Rachel) Jarvis, Kristin (Michael) Haverty and Altan Stiles; and nine great-grandchildren, Kailey, Kaycee, Payton, Colton, Caiden, Liam, Tyler, Callie and Rayn.
