0 Comments

James E. “Big Jim” VanAlstine, 92, passed away on Saturday, June 29, 2024, at Pinecrest Manor.

He was born on September 12, 1931 in St. Marys, PA, a son of the late Earl and Pearl Rice VanAlstine.

On June 14, 1952, in Portville, NY, he married the late Inez Hoak VanAlstine, who preceded him in death in 1995. Together they shared more than 43 years of marriage.

Jim was Methodist by faith and retired from Pure Carbon after more than 40 years of dedicated service. He was a 50 year member of the Masonic Lodge, where he had also served as Worshipful Master for 2 years.

He was also a faithful volunteer for the Crystal Fire Department for more than 25 years.

Always enjoying the outdoors, Jim loved hunting, going to camp, and riding his 4-wheeler. Throughout the years, Jim came to be somewhat of an expert when it came to the lost Dent’s Run gold, after having spent more than 50 years researching its whereabouts and looking for it when time allowed. In his earlier years, he was one of the founders of the Mountain Rangers Emergency CB Club, one of the first communication radios in the area for the local police and search and rescue organizations. A carpenter by secondary trade, Jim put on many roofs in the area to help support his family, and loved nothing more than spending time with his family.

PennDOT Announces Bridge Preservation Project in Potter County

​Clearfield, PA – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) announced a bridge preservation project will begin in Roulette Township in Potter County on Wednesday, July 10. The bridge is situated on Route 4003 (Pomeroy Street) over the Allegheny River and this will improve safety and ride quality for motorists by improving the overall condition rating of the structure from poor to good.

The structure is 114 feet long and carries an average of 1,010 vehicles daily. PennDOT anticipates completion in early September, but all work is weather dependent.
