A memorial celebration for longtime Forest Service Ranger Irwin C. "Irv" Puphal, 89, of Thompson Falls, is to be held Friday, Dec. 1, 2 p.m. at the Community Congregational Church in Thompson Falls with the Rev. Gaylund Olson officiating. Family burial will be earlier at Whitepine Cemetery. Mr. Puphal died Tuesday, Nov. 28, 1995 of natural causes at St. Patrick Hospital in Missoula. He was born April 17, 1906 at Farley, Minn., to Herman F. Puphal and Martha *Bruesemeister) Puphal. He was graduated in 1930 with a bachelor of science degree in forest management from the University of Minnesota, where he was president of the forestry fraternity. Mr. Puphal had a lengthy and distinguished career with the U.S. Forest Service spanning over 42 years in several positions and locations. He began working for the Forest Service in June 1928 as a seasonal employee in the Kaniksu National Forest at Porthill, Idaho. He completed the requirements for a B.S. degree in forest management while working summer periods with the Forest Service. He progressed through positions of construction, survey, maintenance, fire dispatching, project foreman, ranger alternate and ranger to a forest staff position on the old Cabinet National Forest. He was the ranger of the first structural sight at Ninemile District from 1935 to 1938. "Irv's Creek" was named after him by the USFS as he discovered it. When the national forest lands in the Thompson Falls area were included in the Lolo National Forest in 1954, Irv elected to stay on as ranger in charge of land management activities in the Thompson Falls area. Upon retiring April 30, 1971, Mr. Puphal was lauded by his superiors as an important public service worker, both in his job performance over the years and as an active participant in public service activities in the Thompson Falls area. Earlier, he was recognized for his performance in the administration of mining activities in the Thompson Falls District. Irv and Winnifred A. Graham were married Dec. 22, 1933 at Whitepine, and were the parents of two children, Susan Marie and Patricia Ann. Mr. Puphal was an active member of the Thompson Falls Golf Club, Lions Club and of the Community Congregational Church. He enjoyed golfing, fishing, gardening, walking and reading. Survivors include his wife of nearly 62 years, Winnifred, of the family home in Thompson Falls; two daughters, Susan Marie Koch and husband Doug, of Missoula, and Patricia Ann Sularz and husband Frank, of Colorado Springs, Colo.; and three grandchildren, Lisa (Sularz) Visintainer of Seattle, Wash.; Jeffrey Sularz, Colorado Springs, and Lance Koch, Winter Park, Colo. Memorials were suggested to the Thompson Falls Volunteer Ambulance or to the Community Congregational Church. Coffelt-Bunch Funeral Service of Thompson Falls is in charge of arrangements.
