Donald (Donny) Michael Braendle May 1, 1952 - May 2, 2011 Don passed away on May 2,2011 in Boise, ID after a courageous battle with cancer. Don was born to Mary A. and K Whitney Braendle on May 1, 1952 in Havana,lL. After his father passed away, his mother moved his family to Boise. Don attended Sacred Heart, Bishop Kelly, and Boise High School. He was trained to be a medic in the Air Force. He married Kristina Priest in 1978 and they had a son together, Glen Whitney Braendle, in 1983. They were later divorced. Don was a master carpenter. He did construction work ranging from re-modeling to new home and commercial construction. He enjoyed creating and transforming "something from nothing." Don was an avid reader and loved horses, but his true passions were outdoor activities. Throughout his life, his favorite past times included water and cross-country skiing, hiking, fishing/camping, and most especially bird hunting. Don always had a faithful Labrador at his side. Don will always be remembered for his unique quick wit, humor and that very special distinctive smile/grin, which allowed him into the world of so many friends and family. Don had a special relationship with each of his family members. His genuine personality invited many wonderful friends into his life wherever he happened to be, whatever he happened to be doing. He had an extraordinary way with people from all walks of life. He truly accepted people for who they were, unconditionally. This was Don's gift to his friends. He would literally give a friend his last dime or the shirt off his back. 'Things" were not important to Don, but people were. He was deeply loved by so many friends and family. Laurie Ann West was Don's life partner and best friend for 16 years. They moved to Rupert in July 2005, where they truly loved living in a small town. They made many lasting friendships. On March 26, 2011 Laurie became Don's beloved wife. Don is survived by his wife Laurie Braendle, his son Glen Braendle and Glen's mother Kristina Priest, 4 step-children: Stephanie West, Jessica West-Craig (Donald), Adrianne West, Emory West III, and 12 beautiful grandchildren, 3 sisters: Frances Reichert (Rick), Ann Frei (Dave), Carol Daley, 5 brothers: Ken and Jim Braendle, Mike (Janelle), Chris and Sam Briggs, and numerous nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his father K Whitney Braendle, his mother Mary A. Briggs and his step-father Lynden Wesley Briggs. The family would like to thank the wonderful staff at the VA Hospital: Oncology, 2MS and CLC. Their kindness, care, humor and support will never be forgotten. There will be a private service at the VA Cemetery. Arrangements are under the direction of Aclesia Funeral Home. At a later date, there will be a Tree Planting Ceremony in Rupert in honor of Don. |

Jack Bicandi 1948 ~ 2011 Jack Bicandi, 62, died in Boise on Sunday, May 1, 2011. The second of four sons, Jack was born on August 14, 1948, in Nampa, to Nina Mae Hale and John Bicandi. Jack grew up with his older brother Gary and younger brothers Jimmy and Pat on the family ranch in Marsing. Jack attended school in Marsing, and graduated from Marsing High in 1966. As a Husky, Jack was a varsity football and baseball player and a state wrestling champion. Jack spent many summers in McCall, Idaho, where he enjoyed snow skiing, water skiing and generally creating havoc with his brothers, Gary and Pat. He attended Boise State on a wrestling scholarship and also played football for a year. He was a life-long Bronco fan and liked to think he was one of the early pioneers of the current Bronco craze. With several Basque cousins and friends from Marsing, Adrian and Homedale, Jack joined the Oinkari Basque Dancers in the fall of 1964; and the boys drove to Boise each Sunday for practice. As a member, Jack traveled around the country with the group and made many lifelong friends. It was in Oinkaris that Jack first met Antonia "Toni" Arana. Jack & Antonia were married May 15, 1971, and were ready to celebrate their 40th wedding anniversary. They have two children, Jacqueline and Nicholas. He was an extremely proud and often boasting father. Jack's work history included co-ownership of the Forum in downtown Boise, management of the Brass Lamp Pizza on the Ditch in Caldwell, and a long-time position of manager of the Elk's Lodge in Nampa. Jack enjoyed following Jacqueline's and Nicholas' many activities. Jack was a natural athlete and shared his love for sports particularly with his son, Nicholas. He enjoyed the outdoors for many, many years-- bird hunting, fishing and camping. His true passion, however, was golf. Jack not only enjoyed the sport itself but the time he spent with his close friends at courses throughout the Valley. He enjoyed playing muz (Basque card game). Jack played in many club-sponsored muz tournaments; and in 2010, he and Nicholas were the Euzkaldunak champions and played in the NABO tournament. He especially enjoyed the "home" tournament championships. He shared his many interests with friends and family members. Many old golf buddies will miss their days with Jack, as will the Basque Center's Sunday muz players. He enjoyed many years of celebrations with his especially large extended family, but he and Antonia's annual tradition of going out to dinner to celebrate their wedding anniversary with their lifelong friends, John and Juliana Aldape, was a particular highlight of each year. Jack's favorite role was that of aitxitxa to Isabella, Jackson and Gabriella—hiding candy in his pockets for them to accidently "find" when they came to give him hugs and kisses. Jack is survived by his wife Antonia; daughter Jacqueline and son-in-law Geoff Kite-Powell; son Nicholas and daughter-in-law Izar Bicandi; grandchildren Isabella, Jackson and Gabriella Kite-Powell; father John Bicandi; brothers Gary (Janice) Bicandi and Pat (Ruth) Bicandi; brothers-in-law Frank (Kathy) Arana and Ramon (Darla) Arana—as well as many nephews, nieces and cousins. He was preceded in death by his brother Jimmy and his mother Nina. A vigil service will be held on Thursday, May 5, 2011 at 7 p.m., at Cloverdale Funeral Home. Funeral Mass will be celebrated on Friday, May 6, 2011 at 10 a.m., at St. John's Cathedral. Memorial donations may be made to Euzkaldunak Basque Foundation, PO Box 2613, Boise 83701; Oinkari Basque Dancers, PO Box 1011, Boise 83701; or St. Joseph's Catholic School, 825 W Fort, Boise 83702.
