Ivory Bunting stands a picture of his older sister Phlisia by a cross that the family has just placed by a lake in the Island Acres section of James 
M. Robb Colorado River State Park. The body of Phlisia, who was 16, was found in the lake in July 1990.

Nothing comes easy for Carrelyn Bunting when it comes to Mesa County.
Driving west on Interstate 70 during a trip earlier this month to Grand Junction to pick up her grandson, the brakes on Bunting’s sport-utility vehicle failed at the worst imaginable point: on descent from the Eisenhower Tunnel into Silverthorne. They avoided a crash and, with some quick repairs in Silverthorne, carried on the next morning.
