BARSTOW -- A memorial service for former Mayor Bill Pope,
62, will be at 2 p.m. Saturday at the Desert View Memorial Park chapel in
Victorville.
Pope, who was mayor from 1988 to 1990, and served on the
City Council from 1984 to 1988, died Sunday at Kaiser Permanente Medical Center
in Fontana of brain cancer.
On Monday, people who knew him and his work lauded him.
"Bill Pope was a great family man, who loved his
community and always worked for the underdog,” said former Mayor Mal Wessel,
who succeeded Pope. "He was in the
forefront of the city's efforts to bring the Factory Merchants Mall to
Barstow."
Pope also played a key role in the League of California
Cities.
"He was an
innovative person, who was instrumental in founding the High Desert division of
the League of California Cities," said former Councilman Manuel Gurule,
who served with Pope. "Through
this effort, cities in the region work together to deal with mutual
problems."
Pope served as vice president of the league division for
several years.
He was mayor when Barstow went to court in a historic
water-rights case that eventually assured the city an equitable share of Mojave
River flow. And Pope helped launch a
concentrated economic-development program.
Pope's resignation as mayor in September 1990 came as a
surprise to Barstow officials. He said
he was stepping down for personal reasons.
"He loved Barstow, feeling he could make a difference
by serving in elective office," said Luz Pope of Hesperia, his wife of 16
years. "His election as mayor was a highlight in his life."
Pope served as a San Bernardino County sheriff's deputy for
20 years, and was stationed in San Bernardino, Yucca Valley and Barstow before
retiring in 1979. He later became a
private investigator.
He lived in Barstow from 1977 to 1990 when he and his wife
moved to Apple Valley. In 1996, the
couple moved to the San Francisco Bay area, returning to the High Desert two
years later to live in Hesperia.
Pope was active in the sheriff's search-and-rescue programs
in Barstow and Yucca Valley, his wife said.
When Pope was 6 years old, his father died from burns
suffered while rescuing seven people from a house fire in their hometown of
Shelbyville, Ind., in 1944. Ore* Pope
was honored posthumously with the Carnegie Medal of Honor for heroism.
"That left a significant impact for Bill," Pope's
wife said. "His father was a role
model in all directions Bill took in life.
He always stood up for what he believed, regardless of the personal
cost."
Similarly, Bill's brother, Jim, died while rescuing a
nephew from a truck fire in Nashville, Tenn., in 1976.
Pope was a graduate of San Bernardino Valley College and
was a licensed polygraph examiner.
Surviving in addition to his wife are three sons, Dan of
Yucca Valley, Billy Jr., of Helendale, and Mathew of Hesperia; a daughter,
Nicole Stillwell of Havelock, N.C.; his mother, Martha Pope of Hesperia, two
brothers, Jack of Yucca Valley and Dan of San Bernardino, his sister, Judy
Mathis of Last Vegas and six grandchildren.
Bishop Nathaniel Jones of the Barstow church of God in
Christ will officiate at the memorial service, which will be at the Desert View
Memorial Park chapel, 11500 Amargosa Road, Victorville. Burial will be private.

who preceded her in death in 1988. One

and his wife, Sarah Jo, of Devola, Jane Kapes and her husband, Robert, of
Sarasota, Fla., and Linda Tucker and her husband Stanley, and Pamela Slater and
