The second annual TAF Academy STEM Expo, formerly known as the Science Fair, showcased a number of innovations and ideas last Saturday from young teenagers and young adults alike. Topics ranged from electricity generation and water purification and even social science studies looking at bullying and inequality. Tyler Tezloff, along with Germaine and Mahlet, proposed an idea of placing piezoelectric discs on stairs to produce power through foot traffic. While the amount of energy generated wasn’t monumental, the idea helped them design and test a theory.

Kent’s Great American Casino to close in March
LOCAL

January 30, 2015 [3]
BY STEVE HUNTER
shunter@kentreporter.com
Kent’s one and only casino will close in March. The Great American Casino, 20500 108th Ave. S.E., in Panther Lake, is scheduled to close by midMarch. The casino’s 93 employees were notified recently about the shutdown. “Essentially, it’s been unprofitable for the last couple of years,” said David Fretz, president of Great American Gaming Corp., a
subsidiary of Great Canadian Gaming Corp., of Richmond, British Columbia. The company’s locations in Tukwila, Lakewood and Everett will remain open, Fretz said. A handful of employees at the Kent location might get jobs at the other sites. The casino offers table card games such as blackjack, baccarat and poker. An interior renovation of the Kent casino in June 2013 failed to attract enough more customers to
make the business profitable. The closure of an Albertsons store and a liquor store in the last two years at the same strip mall took away traffic, Fretz said. Great American opened the Kent casino in 2003. The business sat in unincorporated Kent until Panther Lake residents in 2010 voted to annex to the city of Kent. Kent city officials allowed the casino to operate under a grandfather clause because city code bans casinos. The Kent City Council

approved a gambling tax reduction in 2013 that dropped the city’s tax rate from 11 to 7 percent on gross revenues. “It helped somewhat but it wasn’t sufficient,” said Fretz, who lobbied the council for the tax reduction after the casino had net operating losses of $649,177 in 2011 and $533,038 in 2012. The casino paid about $300,000 in gambling taxes to the city in 2013 and about $200,000 in 2014, Fretz said.

Kent Fire Department receives grant to help reduce job-related cancers FOR THE REPORTER
The Kent Fire Department Regional Fire Authority and the Washington State Council of Firefighters received a Safety and Health Investment Project (SHIP) grant from the state to help reduce the risk of job-related cancers. Funding and support for this project was provided by the state Department of Labor and Industries. The $102,313 grant, announced this week by the Kent Fire Department, is entitled “Best Practices for Reducing Firefighter Risk of Exposure to Carcinogens” and as the title suggests will focus on:
• Creating a “best practices” manual outlining standards to reduce exposures • Developing a model policy which local jurisdictions can adopt • Promoting cancer awareness within the fire service through a publicity campaign The profession of firefighting is a dangerous one that includes not only the hazards that most people would consider such as building collapse and burns, but also long-term dangers such as job-related cancers, according to a Kent Fire Department media release. Oncologists and other ex-
perts throughout the world agree that the chemicals and other toxins inhaled, absorbed, and ingested by firefighters over the course of a career are the causes of some cancers. In fact, firefighters are more likely to develop testicular, multiple myeloma, non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, or prostate cancer than virtually any other profession. The SHIP grant is a major step toward education and awareness for firefighters and their departments. Reduced incidents of cancer means longer life expectancy, better quality of life, and reduced medical costs.
More work will soon be done to repair the Briscoe Desimone levee along the Green River in Kent and Tukwila. The Kent City Council on Jan. 20 awarded a $1.8 million contract to Tapani Inc., of Battle Ground, to fix section one of the levee between South 180th Street and South 200th Street. Tapani had the lowest of 10 bids submitted in December to the city. Tapani received the bid last year for $6.2 million to repair the first phase of the levee that stretches for 2.7 miles. "We are very pleased with the bids," City Public Works Director Tim LaPorte said to the council. A city engineer's estimate had put the cost at $2.6 million for the latest contract. The total cost for all of the repairs is expected to be about $18 million. The King County Flood Control District is paying for the repairs through a property tax of 10 cents per $1,000 assessed valuation. The state awarded the district a grant of $7 million to help pay for the

levee that protects portions of Kent, Tukwila and Renton from flooding. The flood district board hired an outside consultant in 2013 and eventually agreed to go with the city's plan to repair the levee rather than a muchmore expensive county staff plan that included purchasing large amounts of property around the river. Crews will install sheet piles about 30 to 40 feet into the ground to build a flood wall. About six feet of the wall will sit above ground. The upcoming work will be in the city of Tukwila, whose borders start just north of South 200th Street along the river. Levee certification studies in 2010 indicated four areas of the levee required improvements to meet federal levee safety requirements, according to city staff. The projects also include the city submitting applications to the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) to certify the levee so properties are removed from the Kent Valley floodplains and property owners are no longer required to buy flood insurance.

Velma May Sasser
Velma May Sasser went to meet her Jesus on December 23, 2014. She died peacefully in her Kent home with the lovely people at the Weatherly Inn. Velma (Adams) was born on May 14, 1925 in Wichita, Kansas. As a young child her parents died within six weeks of each other. She was taken to the loving home of an elderly aunt and uncle who became “Mama and Papa”. She seldom saw her half-brother, Forrest, or half-sister, Vivian, until they were grown. They treasured their time together later in life. Velma met her first husband, Bill Schooling, during the war years and they married in 1946. In 1953 they moved to the Seattle area. Bill preceded Velma in death in 1981. Velma then married W.G. Sasser, a widower, and enjoyed this union until Willie’s death in 1993. She had three children: Jean Zahn (Kenn), Jack Schooling (Donelle), and Sharon Long (Chris). She left four grandchildren and four greatgrandchildren, brother-in-law and sister-in-law, Phil and Ann Coffin from Las Vegas, NV, nieces, Jacque Everhart and LauraNelle Massey and nephew, Chris Schaeffer, including their families. Velma was a very conscientious and well-thought of worker. Her places of employment included Boeing, Heath Tecna, and Beech Aircraft Corp. She loved to travel and saw approximately 20 states,Washington D.C. and parts of Canada. She enjoyed learning about wildlife, the history and culture of different areas. She, also, took trips with grandchildren to Australia, Africa, and Europe. A major enjoyment for Velma was reading and studying the Bible. She loved her friends at Faith Baptist Church and helped in several areas within the church. Among other interests in her life were gardening, quilting, miniatures, and remodeling projects. Velma loved and was loved by Jesus, family and friends. A memorial service to honor her life will be held at 2:00 pm on Saturday, February 21, 2015 at Faith Baptist Church, 25636 140th Ave SE, Kent. Memorial donations can be made to The Salvation Army or Samaritan’s Purse.

An annual volunteer count found 135 homeless people in Kent, more than double the number from last year. The 35th annual One Night Count of homeless people in King County took place between 2-5 a.m. on Jan. 23. More than 800 volunteers fanned out across the county to count the number of men, women and children who were homeless and sleeping outdoors without shelter. The volunteers found people
[ FAA from page 1 ] according to a city media release. The U.S. General Services Administration (GSA), which will pick a site for a 300,000-square-foot facility to handle approximately 1,600 employees, expects to announce a decision in March. The new offices are scheduled to open in August 2017. Trammell Crow will submit the proposal to GSA. The company would own the property and lease the building to the federal government for use by the FAA. The FAA plans to leave its current SeaTac and Renton locations that do not meet criteria for the larger facility. The council voted in April to try to sell the course to a developer to help bail out the financially struggling golf complex, which also features an 18hole course, driving range and merchandise shop. Riverbend faces a $2.6 million debt, capital investments of at least $6 million and operating deficits of about $300,000 per year. “When we made the difficult decision to sell (the par 3) last year, our goal was to maximize the proceeds, both from the sale and from the tax revenue and economic benefits the site would generate,” Councilman Dennis Higgins said in a media release. “This deal is a grand slam in both regards. If Kent is selected,
the city will receive property tax revenue, permit fees, and best of all, there will be 1,600 well-paid employees in our city every day, shopping and eating in Kent, enjoying all the assets our great city has to offer. “According to our consultants, build-to-suit corporate office space is the highest and best use for this site. This proposed development fits the bill perfectly.” Councilwoman Deborah Ranniger voted against the sale. “This is something I’ve been struggling with mightily,” Ranniger said prior to the vote. “I feel in my heart of hearts I’m selling a little bit of the soul of Kent. When I look at the design it will be surrounded by a fence because it’s a FAA facility and there will be lots of parking (approximately 1,200 spots) at the Gateway to Kent. My feeling is we are losing something big. I cannot bring myself to support this.” Early last year, the city hired Jones Lang LaSalle, a commercial real estate services firm, to study the marketability of the property after the council asked staff to explore a possible sale. Mayor Suzette Cooke says the prospect is a potential game-changer for Kent’s economy. “It’s a rare opportunity to bring such a high-caliber, stable employer to our city and to this marquee gateway property,” Cooke said in the media release.
cent increase over last year. “This year’s count is heart-breaking evidence that we cannot cover our community’s most basic needs,” said Alison Eisinger, executive director of the Seattle/King County Coalition on Homelessness. “Clearly, the crisis of people homeless and without shelter is growing, and clearly we must respond by using every resource we have. Everyone needs a safe place to rest.” The reasons people are without shelter vary. Lack of affordable housing, poverty, unemployment, untreated mental illness or addiction, and domestic violence all contribute to homelessness. For more information and to find out how you can help, go to homelessinfo.org.
Economic Development Director Ben Wolters says this project is part of a highly competitive process that required confidentiality leading up to the council vote. “Because of what’s at stake, competition for the FAA is fierce,” Wolters said. “Trammell Crow Company needed this sale to demonstrate they’d be able to move forward with construction should the Kent site be selected. We’re fortunate to work with Trammell Crow Company, which has a record of success delivering quality projects. They won the competition to build the FAA headquarters in Fort Worth, Texas. Their expertise and credibility is unmatched.” The FAA started looking for a new site several years ago. Kent as well as the cities of Renton, Tukwila, Des Moines and SeaTac submitted potential locations. But cutbacks by Congress put the search for new location on hold. The project now has received full funding. But the FAA also extended its radius for potential sites within 10 miles of the current Renton offices. That attracted even more cities, including Seattle, to go after the new headquarters when initial proposals were due last May. “To be clear, this is a conditional sale, which will only occur if Kent is selected,” Wolters said. “It’s an extremely competitive process. If the GSA doesn’t choose this site, the sale will

be null and void. Then the city will immediately begin marketing the site to attract other developers.” A GSA spokeswoman said she couldn’t talk about how many proposals and from which cities were submitted. “GSA is still reviewing the proposals received in response to the Request for Lease Proposal issued last year,” said Sally Mayberry, GSA public affairs manager, in an email to the Kent Reporter. “Due to federal regulations, we can’t share the list of those sites that have submitted as an expression of interest because that information is procurement sensitive.” If Kent is selected, the city and Trammell Crow Company have committed to a design for the project. “The building conforms to and fits in with the natural contours of the site,” Wolters said. “It would be set back from both the Green River and the trail. The trail won’t be impacted, in fact, it will be enhanced with a new connection and trailhead open to the public.” As part of the purchase price, Trammell Crow Company has agreed to contribute $500,000 towards construction of a new 3-acre park and trailhead adjacent to its building, creating public access to the trail that doesn’t exist today.

A King County corrections officer takes Ken Sharp, a former Kent City Councilman, into custody on Jan. 22 after a judge sentenced Sharp to 43 months in prison for stealing money from his mother, Helen Sharp. STEVE HUNTER, Auburn Reporter
King County senior deputy prosecuting attorney, who handled the case and specializes in elder abuse crimes. The length of Sharp’s sentence was contingent on how much money he paid back to his mother. Sharp needed to pay at least $100,000 to have his sentenced reduced. In October, Cayce granted Sharp three extra months before sentencing to give him more time to come up with money but he paid back just $1,500, Ulrey said. With no restitution paid, Ulrey recommended a high-end sentence. “Miss Sharp was 93 years old when this occurred and had dementia,” Ulrey said. “She was completely vulnerable. She and the Sharp family entrusted
the defendant with her life savings, her finances - literally everything. But rather than comply with his judiciary duty as her power of attorney he squandered her assets, her life savings. He lived a lavish lifestyle and truly disregarded her concerns.” Carol Grothe, a sister of Ken Sharp, asked the judge to impose the maximum sentence. “We are pleading with you to take this case seriously enough to deter all of those contemplating stealing money from the elderly,” Grothe said. “Do not make it light, do not make it profitable. …Do not leave the elderly unprotected.” The thefts started in 2008 after Sharp agreed to help take care of his mother and her financial affairs follow-
ing her stroke. “He started withdrawing money in November 2008 and continued almost every month for the next three months,” Grothe said. “When that money ran out, he took out a reverse mortgage on mom’s house and took that money.” Grothe said Sharp used much of the money for trips. “He continuously and blatantly with his wife posted pictures on Facebook of his many travels out of the country, parties, hotels and restaurants,” Grothe said. “He and his wife, we are told mostly his wife, bought a diamond ring, a wedding, a car and a house.” Sharp told his two sisters he needed the money to payback his ex-wife but Grothe said that wasn’t
bank accounts. He reported the alleged theft to the Kent Police that same month. Detectives investigated the case and later turned it over to the King County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office. Baker admitted to detectives to stealing more than $200,000 from league accounts from May 2012 through September 2013, according to court documents. Baker also told detectives he was a victim of a Nigerian Internet email-solicitation scam in which he sent tens of thousands of dollars
to the United Kingdom and Nigeria on the premise that the lender would provide him with a much-needed business loan he couldn’t otherwise qualify for in the United States. Detectives received a search warrant for bank records for all accounts where Baker was an authorized signatory, including two with the Kent Little League, his business account and his personal account. The bank records showed Baker used league funds for personal expenses, includ-
ing restaurant and bar tabs. Records also showed checks written to Baker and his business from the league accounts, including two cashier checks for as much as $20,000 each to his business account. Cash withdrawals from the league account by Baker coincided with cash deposits into his business account. The league’s board of directors sent a letter in September to Little League parents and volunteers to notify them about the loss of funds.

A King County corrections officer handcuffed Sharp and took him into custody after King County Superior Court Judge James Cayce sentenced the Kent businessman. Sharp had not yet served any jail time. Sharp, 67, the owner of Minuteman Press in Kent, pleaded guilty in June to seven counts of first-degree theft and one count of mortgage fraud. In 38 separate transactions, a total of $479,417.58 had been transferred out of Helen Sharp’s account and into Ken Sharp’s account between 2008 and 2011. Detectives later discovered an additional transfer that boosted the total to $485,417.58, according to court documents. Relatives of Sharp tipped off police about the thefts. His mother lived in Federal Way at the time of the thefts. Federal Way Police arrested Sharp in June 2013 but he stayed in his first race for city council and voters elected him over Bailey Stober in a close November 2013 contest. Sharp resigned in January 2014 after only two weeks in office because of what he said were “pending legal issues I fear will become too distracting for my fellow council members, for the mayor and for city staff.” Helen Sharp, his mother, died in November. Despite her death, Sharp still must pay restitution to her estate, said Page Ulrey,
true. He also told them he needed the money to help out his printing business, but she said he continued to take trips, even to other countries. Sharp’s decision to run for the Kent City Council surprised his family. “He ran for Kent City Council while under investigation,” Grothe said. “Knowing he was guilty, he decided he was qualified enough to run for office making a joke out of the whole city,” Grothe said. “This made this case very public and caused absolute humiliation for the whole family.” Defense attorney Greg Girard asked Judge Cayce to consider the good work in the community Sharp had done. Sharp was a former Kent Chamber of Commerce president. “I think it’s appropriate to consider the positive things he’s done in his life in as-
sessing what the appropriate sentence is,” Girard said. “He’s been a positive man in the community for a long time, helping people along the way justifies a sentence below the standard range.” Cayce declined to consider the good work. “I’m here to sentence you on eight separate crimes you committed over a period of a year,” Cayce said. “I appreciate the good work you’ve done, this wasn’t part of it.” Cayce told Sharp the state Department of Corrections will determine where he serves his sentence. “It’s up to DOC where you go,” Cayce said. “I know any amount of time is going to be very difficult for you. I suspect you will be in a halfway house well before you are released but this jurisdiction has nothing to do with that, it’s totally up to DOC.”

Headline to probe story misleading I am very, very troubled by the headline, “Deputy questions Kent’s role in probe,” to a Jan. 23 article in the Kent Reporter. It seems to me entirely reasonable, in fact it seems very important, that Kent Police Chief Ken Thomas followed protocol and began an investigation. This is backed up by the Sheriff 's response. If there was no wrongdoing, then the investigation would clear King County Sheriff 's Office Deputy Andy Conner, and this is what happened. However, the article, and the headline especially, take an advocacy role for Deputy Conner and suggest that something is amiss in the KPD, when exactly the opposite is the case. Would the Kent Reporter prefer that allegations of wrongdoing not be investigated? This is not to take away from the important work done by Deputy Conner and others to rescue sex trafficking victims
that your headlines would be considered very carefully in this light, as many folks will glance over the headline and come to the conclusion that there is something wrong in our police department. Nothing could be further from the truth.

MY TURN
Moving beyond the gas tax as our system takes on new look With gas prices plummeting to less than $2 a gallon, some politicians think this is the ideal time to increase state and federal gas taxes. The theory is when gasoline is expensive, voters vehemently oppose higher gas taxes; but when the price drops,
motorists don’t pay as much attention. They just fill up and drive off, thankful for the savings. The flaw in that theory is that gas prices will inevitably climb again. But a larger concern is that the debate over fuel taxes distracts us from the real question: what is the best way to pay for road projects and bridge

Question of the week:
Have you ever wondered why people volunteer? I suppose it may be to shine a favorable light on a business in which they may be involved. Sponsorship of a community project may be just the thing that would draw us in to buy products from the big warehouse company on Main Street or Whatever Boulevard. What about these people who don’t have a company that they are associated with, you know, the ones who just show up for Kent Downtown Cleanup Day or some other remote endeavor that brings no visible credit to the volunteer whatsoever? Like, there is this business owner in Kent who doesn’t wait for a special day where he will be recognized for his volunteerism, he just goes out and blows the leaves and dirt off the sidewalks and streets in front of businesses all over Kent. I don’t even remember the name of his company and he doesn’t carry a sign to advertise his wares, he just does it. What is with this guy? Then there is this lawyer in town who is at every volunteer function and then some. He is always ready to help and I never have seen him hand out a business card. In fact, as I think about it, there is actually more than one Kent lawyer fitting that description. We just don’t have any big people in Kent, just people who are gigantic in stature and caring. That bring us to the volunteer organizations in Kent. These are interesting because you can really get buried in one of these so deep, never to surface enough to have anybody recognize that you belong. I know people in Rotary, for example, who go to every meeting in Kent and when they are away on vacation in another state, they go to a totally unknown Rotary group in that location. You can go by their office and the door will be locked because they are
maintenance and reduce highway congestion? The real issue is how taxes are collected and distributed for transportation projects. Today, the federal gasoline tax is 18.4 cents per gallon and 24.4 cents for diesel. Washington state’s gas and diesel taxes are among the nation’s highest at 37.5 cents. Therefore, truckers in our state are taxed 62
cents a gallon for diesel and car owners fork over nearly 56 cents per gallon in taxes. And there’s more to come. Although not a direct fuel tax increase, Gov. Inslee’s cap-and-trade program and his proposed low carbon fuel standard will both raise fuel costs. The cap-and-trade program [ more BRUNELL page 8 ]

“Gone to Rotary.� To heck with business, to heck with vacation, I just want to serve. But an interesting thing looms up in the middle of all these faceless Rotarians who give their time and money, a big wonderful fountain looms up, that is filled with kids in the center of downtown Kent. They bought it and built it and I suspect many of the people who bring their kids to be a family there, don’t know one name of one person, who was a part of creating that little bit of heaven for them. Then there is the Kiwanis. They too, are filled with Kent business people who are nameless. Most Kent citizens wouldn’t know why they give so much time and personal money without some kind of recognition.

I don’t get as tired as easily.” Sarah, a Kent Phoenix Academy graduate, was admitted to Western Kentucky University, but decided to have the corrective surgery

system. As the system was expanded and upgraded over the decades, the tax was increased in 1982, 1990 and 1993. That system worked pretty well when the price of a gallon was under 30 cents a gallon and when the only electric vehicles in Seattle were the electrified trolley buses. But the 1973 Arab Oil Embargo changed all that. Overnight, the price of a barrel of oil quadrupled. President Nixon responded by rationing gasoline and imposing a 55 mph speed limit. As Congress got involved, the auto industry began shifting to cars that got better mileage. Now, President Obama wants cars to average 54.4 miles per gallon by 2025. More fuel-efficient cars and the growing popularity of hybrids and electric cars means less gas is sold, which generates less gas tax revenue for transportation projects. The formula for funding highway and bridge construction must change; state and federal fuel taxes
are no longer sufficient. Carbon fuels can no longer bear the brunt of funding our transportation system. Congestion-based funding, tolls, licensing and fees on all vehicles, including electric and alternative fuel cars, will have to pick up a greater share of the costs. Recently, the Wall Street Journal editorialized that the time has come to abolish the federal gas tax, saying the costs of transportation can reasonably be borne by the people who enjoy the benefits – a user fee of sorts. While it seems highly unlikely that Congress will repeal the gas tax, elected officials need to look at the core issues with transportation and shift away from reflexively raising fuel taxes. That just won’t work anymore.
would cap industrial carbon emissions at a certain level and facilities that exceed the cap would have to pay money to the state. Inslee estimates the program will bring in $1 billion a year, $400 million of which would pay for road and bridge projects. Presumably, the refineries and fuel shippers covered by the program will pass their added costs on to consumers in the form of higher fuel prices. And analysts for the state’s climate change task force estimated his low carbon fuel standard would increase gas prices 93 cents to $1.17 per gallon. Here’s the problem. Depending solely on gas taxes and carbon-based fuels to pay for transportation may have worked in the past, but it ignores modern realities. When President Eisenhower set up the federal Highway Trust Fund in 1956, the proceeds from the original three-cent gas tax built the interstate highway

They’re members of a pickup Iraqi soccer team, one of a wide swath of soccer teams that organize based on homeland or ethnic groups. Multicultural soccer leagues around Kent have sprung up over the past several years, the largest and most prominent being the Liga Azteca, which hosts a slew of different cultural communities in Kent ranging from Iraqis to Latinos. Jose Gomez, who started the league two years ago, said that his creation started with only a few teams but has ballooned to more than 70 teams, many based on countries. While teams aren’t strictly divided by country, says Gomez, they tend to attract people from the same country. The Fiji and El Salvador teams might be 70 percent Fijian or El Salvadorian.

The 2004-05 Falcons squad finished fifth at state.

Aziz Bader, a junior at Kentridge High School, manages an Iraqi soccer team, one of many multicultural teams that play in the Kent area.
team to coordinate practices, says Bader, often because of the amount of money needed to secure a field. It’s costly to pay for Kent’s varied fields, and without an organization to boost the fledgling team they’re struck with practicing when they can raise money to rent a field, and playing when they can raise money for league fees. Bader has signed the team up for a local eight-on-eight league. “Other teams are really prepared,� says Bader. “They have money to practice, we have frustration getting the money to practice, we can’t always raise money to practice.� Still, Bader and his teammates are optimistic about getting the team off the ground this year. Being in the new league is a step in the right direction. “Every time we get to here,� he says, pointing at the first hole in the three-hole notepad he’s holding. “Now,� he says, moving his finger to the halfway point, “we’re here.�

Longtime Kent Parks volunteer passes away FOR THE REPORTER
Douglas Hill
Douglas Hill, known to the city of Kent Parks staff and community members as one of its most dedicated volunteers, passed away in his sleep on Jan. 9 after a brief illness. Hill was honored at a Dec. 17 awards dinner for contributing more than 120 hours to the Green Kent Partnership and other
volunteer events over the years, beginning in 2009. His final volunteer event was Green Kent Day on Oct. 25, when, though it was clear he was battling his illness, he delighted in teaching a few more kids how to plant correctly. Hill was a trained Green Kent steward. He elected not to have his own park site to work in but instead chose to support the work of all the other stewards. Because of his many contributions, he was inducted as a master steward.
“I want to remember Doug as the man who showed up at my event last spring,â€? said Gina Tallarigo, a fellow Green Kent steward. “It was a gorgeous, sunny day, and Doug showed up right on time. ‌ I asked Doug to give the safety talk. He gave the most thorough safety talk I ever heard. “This was the day we removed many laurels, not just the branches, but a majority of the trees,â€? Tallarigo said. “Doug was so pleased to be part of this huge accomplishment.Â
“As we all know, Doug was very knowledgeable about a lot of topics, and no one knew the history of Kent as much as he did. He could tell a great story, and he was typically serious, at least when I would see him. The day was fun and productive, and I saw the super joyful, even silly side of Doug, the Doug Hill I will remember.� Hill’s wife, Vickie Lynn, said that in lieu of flowers, he requested that people volunteer at Kent Parks or their local park.

From roses to seeds, some things to add to your garden
1. Buy and
plant bare root roses. Area nurseries have a great price on roses during the winter because they are sold “bare root� or without a pot and soil. This means they usually have their roots encased in a plastic bag with damp sawdust keeping the bare roots damp. Bare root roses this time of year are still dormant so this also makes them easier to plant as they won’t suffer as much from the shock of transplanting. Bare root roses are much easier to load into the car and carry about the garden. This is the best time of year to find named varieties of hybrid tea roses like the disease resistance Peace rose, climbing roses like the classic New Dawn pink rose and hardy shrub, landscape and species roses such as the thorny but tough Rosa Rugosa. Planting Tip: Soak the bare roots overnight in a bucket of water and if you buy a boxed bare root rose, do not plant the cardboard box with the rose no matter what the package recommends. Our mild winter climate means the rose roots do not need the added protection of cardboard.
2. Buy and plant bare
root fruit trees and berries. Once again winter is the best time to add bare root fruit trees because they are under the anesthetic of winter and won’t suffer from the transplant operation. If your New Year’s resolution is to become more self-
THE GARDENER
Five things you can do this winter for your garden:
sufficient by growing more food, make this the week you add a mini orchard to your property. Apple trees come in dwarf and semi-dwarf root stocks and there is also a “Columnar� apple tree that bears fruit on the trunk or short spurs. This tree does not branch out. The “Columnar� apple tree needs just 2 feet of room and can be grown in a half whiskey barrel. Raintree nursery of Morton Washington sells this super compact apple tree for under $30 and will ship it to your door. Go to www. raintreenursery.com Marianne Binetti
The end of January and beginning of February means it is time to dig in and start planning and planting.
3. Buy and plant bare
root flowering shrubs. Old fashioned favorites such as lilac, spiraea, forsythia and quince can be purchased bare root and a dozen of these blooming shrubs will take up less space in your car than a week’s worth of groceries. Use a mix of inexpensive bare root shrubs and a few evergreens to design a border of plant material along a property line or in front of a fence line to create a tapestry of bloom. A mix of blooming bushes can replace the evergreen and ever boring line of pyramidalis arborvitae lined up like green soldiers. The more diverse the plants in your landscape the better it is for local birds, bees, insects and wild life.
4. Order seeds from
catalogs now or buy seeds from local nurseries offered by local seed companies. Those of us that live in Western Washington are lucky to have Ed Hume Seed Company based in Puyallup with Ed Hume himself still recommending the best seed varieties and planting tips from

It is still too early to start many seeds either indoors or out, but purchasing seeds now ensures that the varieties you want will be in stock and you can use the information on the package to plot out when and where to plant the seed. Tip: Displaying colorful seed packs in a basket or bowl is a great spring tonic. You can also string a piece of twine across a window or mantel. Then use clothes pins to clip the seed packages to the twine for an inspirational banner of summer bounty to come.
