As a home boy from Ortley South Dakota I appreciate the effort you
made to create this site. Its refreshing to see someone taking an
interest in Ortley. I lived in Ortley for the better part of 18 years
before leaving for the Army and to this day miss the place dearly
even tho I get back to see the folks once or twice a year. Have alot
of great memories of swimming in the Ortley pond diving off the
dock, hanging out and eating choke cherries near the Melanders,
snatching apples off Selma Grindes trees plus Swensons, riding on
the hay trailer with my Granpa Miller, shooting pool and watching
the old timers play cards, and the list goes on and on.

As a former resident of Ortley it is so nice to visit this site. I would like to find old friends and this may be possible now.

Hello to all you Ortleyites near and far..

I would sure like some current news about my hometown of Ortley.

I heard that BJ's cafe closed..bummer.

Does anyone have any news about how the big storm damaged Ortley?

Are there any businesses in Ortley?

Thanks,

Pat O'Riley, Silver City, New Mexico

Thanks for the post. We've moved away, and obviously haven't updated anything lately, but glad to keep this up as an extended community bulletin board for Ortley.

Not sure if this blog is up and running, but will post anyway. Looking forward to returning to Ortley this summer. My brother Jan and I will be renovating my parents house. A little abuse over the years and needs some attention.

Hello Ortley!

My name is Eric Becker, and I am the eldest grandson of
Clayton* & Theresa From; I regret to inform you that
Theresa has passed away, finally rejoining Clayton in
everlasting peace. Services are being planned as of this
email - should anyone wish to be kept up to date, please
feel free to reply to me. Thank you.


* Clayton was a native son of Ortley, part of the
Anderson/From clan extending far back in the town's history
from what I understand.

When I went to college, the registrars thought I was trying
to be funny when I told them that my address was "PO Box 1"
in Ortley. I guess they didn't realize that SOMEBODY had
to have "Box 1" in a small town...
