Kent approves funding change to human services agencies BY STEVE HUNTER shunter@kentreporter.com

The city of Kent has changed how it dedicates money from the general fund to human services agencies after a large decrease in 2011 required a $95,000 adjustment.

The City Council approved Dec. 11 funding human services based on a per capita rate of $6.96 per city resident rather than 1 percent of the general fund. The city funded 30 programs this year with amounts from $10,000 to $125,000.

“That’s really great,” said Marvin Eckfeldt, of Kent, who commented at the council meeting about the change. “That means the budget will have $828,000 to give to citizens in Kent who are in need.”

In 2011, the city’s Human Services Commission asked the council and received a budget adjustment of $95,000 to cover a drop in funds. The commission decided to come up with a new funding tool to avoid a similar

deficit in future years. The per capita funding creates a stable funding source, according to staff reports. Over the years, the city has determined that human services needs tend to [ more FUNDING page 6 ]

Phillip’s murder trial continued in death of city employee

Doctor leads effort to bring smiles to others

A Kent orthodontist will fix smiles for free and is asking recipients to pay it forward. Dr. Bob Haeger, of Kent’s Haeger Orthodontics, will offer free treatments to eight deserving patients a year beginning this spring. The work costs a minimum $5,000, but can go as high as $8,000 for braces and all that they require. “He’s always believed in giving back to the community,” said Marla Sherrard, Haeger’s financial coordinator and program contact.

The murder trial has been continued to Feb. 11 for the Oregon man charged with first-degree murder for the 2010 stabbing death of Seth Frankel, a city of Kent employee and Auburn resident. William L. Phillip had been scheduled to go to trial on Monday, Jan. 7. But King County Superior Court Judge Beth Andrus granted a request from defense attorneys Phillip to continue the date to Feb. 11 to have more time to prepare the case, according to the King County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office. Andrus granted a similar request to continue an Oct. 29 trial date. Phillip, 32, of Portland, remains in custody at the county jail at the Norm Maleng Regional Justice Center in Kent with bail set at $1 million. He pleaded not guilty in March 2011 to a first-degree murder charge after being extradited from Portland. Attorneys from both [ more TRIAL page 2 ]

City hires consultant to assess contaminated sites BY STEVE HUNTER shunter@kentreporter.com

The city of Kent awarded a $385,000 contract to Stantec Consultant Services to conduct a community-wide assessment for contaminated sites. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency awarded the city $385,000 in grants in June to inventory, assess and prioritize contami-

nated sites in an effort to redevelop the properties. Stantec has more than 190 offices in North America, including Seattle, and four locations internationally. The City Council approved the contract on Dec. 11. According to staff reports, “the city will use these funds to complete a community-wide [ more CONTRACT page 2 ]

[ CONTRACT from page 1 ] properties increases local inventory and prioritization of brownfield sites within the city, to perform up to 16 Phase I and 10 Phase II environmental site assessments on identified sites, to complete additional site investigation and remedial action plans for select sites, and to perform community outreach and education related to brownfields.� A brownfield is a property, the expansion, redevelopment, or reuse of which may be complicated by the presence or potential presence of a hazardous substance, pollutant, or contaminant. Cleaning up and reinvesting in these

tax bases, facilitates job growth, utilizes existing infrastructure, takes development pressures off of undeveloped, open land and both improves and protects the environment. A Phase I property assessment includes a historical investigation and preliminary site inspection. A Phase II assessment is more in-depth and includes sampling activities to identify the types and concentrations of contaminants and the areas to be cleaned. City staff projected it would take about three years to complete the project. “It’s not about a risk to the public,� said Josh Hall,

city economic development specialist, during an interview in June about the EPA grants. “It’s more about identifying idle property and trying to get the property back on the tax base and get development happening.� Borden Chemical operated a plant from 1956 to 2001 on First Avenue where the Kent Station shopping mall now stands. The state Department of Ecology (DOE) listed Borden as one of the worst hazardous waste sites. Clean up efforts put the property back on the market.

he was angry that someone else was dating the woman. Detectives connected Phillip to the murder through a blood-stained towel found at Frankel’s house as well as cellphone records that put Phillip near the home the night of Frankel’s death. Frankel’s girlfriend tipped off detectives that Phillip could be the one who killed Frankel. She said Phillip wanted a romantic relationship with her and spoke badly about Frankel even though he had never met him, according to charging papers. Phillip had

seen a photo of Frankel that the girlfriend had. Auburn Police – with the help of the U.S. Marshals Service – arrested Phillip in December 2010 in Portland in connection with Frankel’s death. According to court documents, the jury trial could last six weeks. Phillip has waived his right to a speedy trial. If needed, either side could again ask the court for more time to prepare the case and request a new trial date.

Those selected won’t necessarily be destitute people, she said. Many people with jobs still can’t afford to pay for braces for their children because of other costs. The office is looking for people who could dramatically benefit from the work, but for whom such services are out of their budget. Work on braces can typically go on for one to two years. The charity treatment includes all of the required X-rays and retainers, but does not include followup work at a dentist’s office.

That work may involve cleanings and fillings. Haeger’s office will try and work with dentists in the area to see if those services can be given at a reduced rate. The office has been in contact with schools and dentists in the area to promote the service. “We are really excited to get started,� Sherrard said. Four candidates will receive the service in May and four more in October. Applications are available at Haeger Orthodontics, 24909 104th Ave. SE, Suite 203, Kent. They also can be requested through email by calling the office at 253850-7043. For information about the national foundation visit, www.s4l.org.

Report shows educational challenges ahead at Kent, South County schools REPORTER STAFF

As South King County and Seattle schools celebrate a $40 million Race to the Top federal grant, a new regional report card reveals increasing need among students and shows data on 30 important indicators related to student success. Seven school districts – Auburn, Federal Way, Highline, Kent, Renton, Seattle and Tukwila – are among the many partners working on the Road Map Project. The 2012 Results Report was issued Dec. 13 by the Community Center for Education Results, the nonprofit organization supporting the Road Map Project, which is a regionwide effort to dramatically improve education results in South King County and South Seattle. The Road Map Project’s goal is to double the number of students in South King County and South Seattle who are on track to graduate from college or earn a career credential by 2020, and to close opportunity gaps.

The data shown in the Results Report are meant to motivate action and drive change. The report, which will be published annually, tracks the Road Map Project’s Indicators of Student Success, which are important measures related to student achievement, such as the percent of students proficient in 3rd grade reading or the percent of students who enroll in postsecondary education. Thirty indicators are reported in the Results Report. The report also includes bright spots – examples of great success and opportunity gap closure – from around the region. “We’ve known for years that education results in our region are not where they need to be,” said Mary Jean Ryan, executive director of the Community Center for Education Results. “The Results Report clearly shows where we need to focus. These problems aren’t new – what is new is the resolve and commitment in the region to improve education so all our students can be successful.” The recently awarded

$40 million Race to the Top grant will accelerate the work under way in the region to improve education. Over the past year, hundreds of people worked together as part of the Road Map Project to build plans that will tackle the opportunity gaps that exist across the education continuum. These efforts are beginning to take hold and future Results Reports will capture the outcome of this work. Here’s a look at what’s inside the Road Map Project 2012 Results Report: t ć F 3PBE .BQ TDIPPM communities have seen a rise in poverty and schools are seeing an increase in the number of low-income students. During the 2011-12 school year, 70,000 students or 58 percent in the Road Map Project region were classified as low income by qualifying for free or reduced-price lunch. (Source: OSPI Report Card) t 4UVEFOU QFSGPSNBODF in seventh-grade math is an important Road Map Project Indicator of Student Success. The percent of students

meeting the state standard has increased over the last three years to 58 percent from 52 percent. The goal is to hit 80 percent by 2020. t ć F 3FTVMUT 3FQPSU captured a sobering picture of attendance in Road Map Project region schools. Nearly 1 in 4 high school freshmen, sophomores and juniors missed a month (20 absences or more) of school during the 2011-12 school year. The percent was even higher for seniors at 29 percent. To see the full report, go to www.nxtbook.com/nxtbooks/ cced/2012annualreport/. The Road Map Project is a region-wide effort aimed at dramatically improving student achievement from cradle to college and career in South King County and South Seattle. The project builds off the belief that collective effort is necessary to make large-scale change and has created a common goal and shared vision in order to facilitate coordinated action, both inside and outside schools.

Question of the week:

It is only a snapshot, a gauge of self-reported driving behavior on our roadways. But some things are clear from a recently released Washington Traffic Safety Commission (WTSC) survey. For one, we are honest with ourselves when it comes to how we act behind the wheel. And second, we need to do a better job of steering away from hard-to-kick, unsafe driving habits. Data was collected at select Department of Licensing (DOL) locations throughout the state. DOL patrons were approached and drivers aged 18 years and older who were renewing their driver’s licenses were asked to complete the brief survey while they wait. To summarize, the survey said: t ć SFF RVBSUFST PG Washington drivers thought they were likely to get a ticket for going 68 mph on a freeway posted for 60. t ć SFF RVBSUFST PG ESJWFST TVSWFZFE thought they were likely to get a ticket if they did not wear their seat belt. t .PSF UIBO QFSDFOU UIPVHIU UIFZ XFSF likely to get arrested if they drove drunk. t .PSF UIBO UISFF RVBSUFST PG BMM ESJWFST surveyed reported talking on a cellphone or sending or receiving a text message while driving.

can have a call button installed in every school wired directly to the police station for absolutely the fastest response possible. Or perhaps there would be improved emergency evacuation plans. “No gun� signs on the doors should be larger, so they absolutely cannot be missed. We might consider flying a big flag above the school saying “Gun Free Zone.� No students, teachers, staff or employees should be allowed to have a firearm on campus. After all, one of them might shoot somebody. But let’s change the plan, allow those school staff members with concealed gun permits to carry a weapon on school property. A police call button could alert the armed staff. We also could station one officer at every school, but it would be cheaper, more efficient and effective to have six free and concerned school staff serve if the “one in a million� happens.

Accident scene photos uncalled for I am the youngest child of David Daniel. I have two issues I would like to address. First, my dad was 56 when he was killed, and second, I am very disappointed that your paper has chosen to publish not once, but twice the photo of the accident scene. It is a little like ripping off a scab that has just begun to heal. How about a photo of my dad when he was alive or a photo of the man who killed my dad? I feel offended by the use of the photo, as this was a major trauma for my entire family, as well as many members throughout the community. I believe the use of this photo is in extremely poor taste and I am frankly surprised at your paper’s judgment, especially since you didn’t even think to talk to or ask my family about it. My dad touched so many people throughout the community, and I know we are all devastated each time we see that photo. My parents were high

Does it give me a good feeling knowing that should a “onechance-in-a-million� nut decide to target a Kent school, our district would be prepared? Sorry, but I cannot say that it does.

[ KLAAS from page 4 ] residents annually for their opinions about driving and their awareness of enforcement campaigns. The WTSC uses the survey results to track trends and evaluate the effectiveness of programs, particularly with drivers involved in fatal crashes. “Evaluating drivers’ attitudes and awareness is very important to us,� said Darrin Grondel, director of the WTSC. “This information shows us the best ways we can reach our goals in Target Zero.� Target Zero is the state’s Strategic Highway Safety Plan with a vision of no traffic deaths and serious injuries by 2030. For the most part, more than half of all Washington drivers reported knowledge of enforcement campaigns. Wearing seat belts in the Evergreen State continues to be a big success story for traffic and safety leaders. A newly-released federal report shows that Washington had the highest seatbelt use rate in the nation in 2011 at 97.5 percent.

behind the wheel. “It’s a lot higher than we would like it to be,� Hoff said of the numbers. Hoff is working on tracking trends. That year-to-year report is due in several months and may reveal more information and insight. In the meantime, some government, policymakers and industry officials are making changes. The Metropolitan King County Council voted Nov. 5 to create the traffic offense of “inattentive driving.� The state already prohibits most forms of electronic distracted driving, but the county law adds activities such as eating, wrangling children, putting on make-up and eating. The King County law calls for secondary enforcement and fines of $124. It goes into effect with the new year. Distracted driving killed 122 people in King County between 2004 and 2008, safety researchers reported. The WTSC intends to do its part to put the word out, design marketing campaigns to target drivers and unsafe habits. It wants to make an impact. This is a never-ending quest. If anything, more drivers are aware of what they are doing – and not doing – behind the wheel. The 2011 Washington Driver Survey Report is available at www.wtsc.wa.gov.

SLEEPING PROBLEMS If you are feeling tired during the day, do not necessarily assume that age-related changes in your sleep patterns are to blame. While many seniors do not get as much uninterrupted sleep as they once did, others may be suffering from sleep disorders of which they are not even aware. For instance, “obstructive sleep apnea� (OSA), which has been linked with daytime fatigue and even heart disease, often causes sufferers to snore and stop breathing for prolonged periods. If you sleep alone, you may not be aware whether or not you snore. While between 4 percent and 6 percent of younger people have OSA, the risk is thought to be doubled or tripled among seniors. We hope you found this topic to be both interesting and informative. At PARKSIDE RETIREMENT COMMUNITY, the well-being of our senior residents is our number one priority. Our caring and knowledgeable staff is here to assure that our seniors receive the best care available. To learn more, reach us today at (253) 939-1332. You are invited to tour our unique senior community, conveniently located at 2902 I Street, N.E. We have been serving seniors since 1972. We wish you a happy and healthy New Year! P.S. “Obstructive sleep apnea� (OSA) is also more common among men than among women.

[6] January 4, 2013 increase when the economy trends downward. However, when the economy trends downward, the city’s general fund tends to decrease. Therefore, human services funding tends to be lower in Kent when there is a greater need for human services funding. The report continued that tying human services funding to the general population will result in a more predictable and stable stream of funding that is not diminished when the economy trends downward and human services needs increase. Kent established a human services fund in 1988 and established the 1 percent of the city’s general fund in 1989. According to the new ordinance, none of the per capita allocation shall be applied to staffing the city’s human services division. Recommendations for expenditures shall be made

Regional Animal Services of King County (RASKC) capped off a successful 2012 with the adoption of its 2,500th pet. Laura Grieve of Renton took home Gaston, a 6-year-old snowshoe mix cat, just minutes before the Pet Adoption Center closed on Monday evening. “We are thrilled that we have been able to find new, loving homes for so many pets this year,�

[ STARK from page 4 ] 900,000 recipients of Medicare in our state. As the Baby Boomer generation retires, combined with fewer doctors, this access problem and longer waiting lines will become much worse. After removing 5 percent for administrative costs to pay for the 160 new government agencies, the remainder of the $1.76 trillion will be spent on an expansion of Medicaid and for subsidies for individuals to purchase health insurance in the state exchanges. An additional 350,000 to 500,000 people will be added to the 1.2 million individuals in the existing Medicaid program in our state. Medicaid is in even worse financial shape than Medicare and provider reimbursements are even lower. Consequently our existing Medicaid patients find it difficult to find a doctor and access health care services. Government officials are pleased that thousands of new patients will be put into Medicaid. It will appear to reduce the number of uninsured, but in practice access to health care will be severely limited for these new enrollees. Washington is one of only 15 states that have already established a health insurance exchange. The exchange will duplicate the role of an insurance broker at an estimated cost to state taxpayers of at least $50 million per year. The exchange will provide taxpayer subsidies to individuals earning less than LOCAL BOY SCOUT TROOPS XJMM DPMMFDU BOE SFDZDMF $ISJTUNBT USFFT PO 4BUVSEBZ GPS B TVHHFTUFE EPOBUJPO ,FOU SFTJEFOUT DBO ESPQ VOEFDPSBUFE USFFT DVSCTJEF CZ B N BUUBDI UIF QBZNFOU JOTJEF BO FOWFMPQF XJUI #PZ 4DPVUT DMFBSMZ NBSLFE PO UIF PVUTJEF BOE UIFZ XJMM CF QJDLFE VQ CZ Q N 5JOTFMFE PS øPDLFE USFFT XJMM OPU CF BDDFQUFE 5SFFT BMTP DBO CF ESPQQFE Pò GSPN B N UP Q N BU 4FSWJDF $MVC

400 percent of the federal poverty level ($92,000 for a family of four last year) to help them purchase health insurance. It is likely many middleclass families will be forced into the state exchange, as employers cancel their health coverage. Benefits and pricing for the plans in the exchange will be determined by the government. There will be very little competition in the exchange and consumers will find very little choice in insurance plans. Premium prices will increase until government regulators set limits. Private insurance companies will at that point become public utilities, like energy companies. Exit polls in Washington done by Edison Media Research for the Associated Press reveal that 50 percent of state voters wanted some or all of the ACA repealed with only 40 percent wanting the law to stay intact. These percents mirror national figures of 49 percent favoring repeal and 44 percent wanting the law to stay in place. ObamaCare will soon control one-sixth of our national economy and will affect everyone’s health care. Although outright repeal is now unlikely, radical changes are needed in this complex, centrally planned and unwanted law.

Kentwood girls chasing Rams for first place

KENTWOOD’S MEYERS WINS SPSL WRESTLING TITLE Kentwood High’s Cassidy Meyers won the 124-pound title at the All-South Puget Sound League girls wrestling tournament. Meyers defeated Puyallup’s Jordan Bartelson 17-6. Taylor Lee of Kentridge placed second at 118 and Anna Watson of Kentwood took second at 137. Federal Way won the team title with 136 points. Kentwood placed ninth with 69 points, Kent-Meridian 13th with 34 points and Kentridge 17th with 22 points. The 21-team tournament on Dec. 27 included schools from the 4A SPSL North and South, the SPSL 3A Division and the SPSL 2A Division.

BY KRIS HILL khill@covingtonreporter.com

In some ways, there is a sense of deja vu to the South Puget Sound League North girls basketball season. Going into the Jan. 3 games, the Mount Rainier Rams sat atop the standings, led by standout Brittany McPhee who regularly scores 30 or more points, while Kentwood and Auburn Riverside are in a battle for second place. Last season, Kentwood won that second spot while Mount Rainier finished the league season undefeated. Not much has changed on Kentwood’s roster. What is different at the start of this season is a spate of illness and injuries have hampered the Conquerors. Still, the Conks beat the Ravens, 38-36 Dec. 15 on the road, then put together a 63-31 victory over KentMeridian Dec. 18 to improve to 5-1 in league, good enough for second place behind Mount Rainier. That lone loss came against Mount Rainier Dec. 13 which seniors Kylee Ashley and Allison Newcomb both say won’t be repeated when the two teams play again Jan. 19 at Kentwood. Newcomb, who took two years off after playing

varsity as a freshman to focus on softball, explained that Mount Rainier had expected to thump Kentwood by 50 points. Instead, it was a 27-point loss, something both seniors expect to change next time. “We’re always excited to play Mount Rainier,” Ashley said. “They’re an outstanding team. I’ve heard their coach say they like playing us because we give them some competition.” Ashley, a post player who stands at 6 feet tall, said teams may have misjudged the Conks at this point in the season because they’ve played without key juniors such as Sarah Toeaina and Alycha DeLong, which has required reserve players to step up when normally they’ve come off the bench. “We’re just focused on getting our bench ready,” Ashley said. “We need to just keep working hard and stay focused and play our game. Just because we have Alycha out, she is a huge part of our team, but it helps us, too. We have to change our roles and know what we have to do to fill that spot.” While the injuries did make the game against the Rams a challenge, Ashley said, the Conks have learned a lot about themselves as a team. Everyone

can shoot, she said, and the team is balanced. “And there’s chemistry,” Ashley said. “The juniors have played together a long time. And we just click as a team.” Newcomb said that offcourt chemistry makes it easier to work together on the court. “Girls sports, it can be hard,” Newcomb said. “Our biggest strength is we all get along. When we’re playing, we trust each other. We don’t take it wrong if we get on each other. This is a great team. I love the locker room. It’s so much fun.” Even though Newcomb is recovering from pancreatitis and has missed a few games, she wouldn’t trade the experience for anything. She hoped to get the goahead soon from her doctor to get back on the court. Talent, she said, is another major strength of this year’s team. Even when she’s not playing, Newcomb added, she enjoys the chance to watch the girls on the team because they are so talented on the floor. “We have a lot of talent of all different ages,” Newcomb said. “If everyone is healthy … I think we’ll be unstoppable. I’m really excited about this year and [ more KENTWOOD page 8 ]

Q. I never did prune back my roses. When was I supposed to do that? Believe it or not my rose plants were still blooming in December. T., Email A. Roses in Western Washington can be pruned in early spring or late winter but there is no exact date. You can wait until the weather is mild in February or March then cut your rose plant back by at least one half their height. The goal is to stimulate healthy new growth in the spring by taking out rose canes that are thin, weak, crossing or diseased. I like to use daffodils in bloom as a reminder to cut back the roses, ornamental grasses and to start pulling winter weeds. Blooming daffodils are also the colorful reminder that slugs are waking up - so you can get snippy with both your roses and your slugs in early spring.

ping from around the pot as it can trap drainage water and cause root rot. Hellebores will thrive in the shade of your rhododendrons as long as the soil drains well and the roots do not dry out in the summer. If you want to create heaven for your hellebore dig a hole that is twice as wide as the pot and loosen the soil to a depth of at least one foot. Add some compost, half-rotted bark mulch or peat moss to the loose soil and mix well. Now remove the hellebore from the pot and do not bury it any deeper than it was originally growing it the container. Your hellebore will now grace you with blooms each winter - which is how these plants earned the nick name “Christmas Rose.� Are you a procrastinator? At least place the potted plant outdoors in a protected area and keep the soil moist until you get around to planting it into the ground. Hellebores will pout if forced to spend more than a week or two indoors. Q. My vet told me that poinsettia plants are poisonous to pets. Should I be concerned about adding a poinsettia plant to the compost pile? I use my compost on the vegetable garden. G.R., Tacoma A.

Still have your tree up? This is the week to remove your cut Christmas tree from inside the house before it dries to a crispy crunch. Needles falling off of evergreens is a sign the branches have dried out. You can sweep up fallen needles and spread them around your rhododendrons and azaleas as a light mulch or even cut off boughs from a cut tree and use the branches to protect tender perennials from the winter cold. Just be sure to remove all traces of tinsel and ornament from trees before you recycle them. Crows and jays are attracted to all that is shiny – so it is not so bright to leave any metal on the petal or bows on the boughs when you compost or recycle. Q. I was given a gift plant with white flowers called a Hellebore “Jacob� and now the lower leaves are turning yellow. The tag says I should move it outdoors after a few weeks but I do not have a perennial garden or much space in my yard. Would it be OK to plant this under some tall rhododendrons? It would get only a few hours of sun a day. C.H., Olympia A. Congratulations on owning one of the most popular gift plants in Europe. In some countries hellebores outsell poinsettias as gifts plants for Christmas. When the foliage begins to yellow indoors, remove all wrap-

A grinder pump will also be installed next to the house, and the existing septic system will be decommissioned. The west fork of Soosette Creek runs diagonally across the western portion of the site.

The exit point of the bore will be near the house, within the buffer but in a maintained lawn and gravel area.

James Wallace Grad James Wallace Grad, born March 11, 1930 in Aberdeen, South Dakota, passed away on December 17, 2012 in Renton, Washington after a long life dedicated to his family, friends and the service of others. Jim joined the US Navy during the Korean War. His time in the Navy allowed him to see the world. He spent time stationed on each of the Iowa-class battleships—the Wisconsin, Missouri, Iowa, and New Jersey. After the Navy he returned to South Dakota where he married Caroline Shillingstad. Together they moved to the Seattle area and Jim went to work for the Union Pacific Railroad as an Engineer. During his long career he was a highly active member of Peer Support, a program dedicated to promoting safety on the railroad and helping his colleagues cope in the aftermath of traumatic accidents in the workplace. While with the Union Pacific and after his retirement, Jim was a strong supporter and advocate for his union, the United Transportation Union (UTU). In 2010 he was honored with a lifetime award for volunteerism from the UTU. Jim’s volunteerism was also generously spread throughout his community. He could be found donating time and energy to help others through the Catholic Church as a Fourth Degree Knight of Columbus. His charity also extended to dedicated work with the Kent Food Bank and the Kent Men’s Homeless Shelter where he offered not only assistance but compassion and dignity to those facing hard times. He helped raise funds to feed the men of the Homeless Shelter and could often be found cooking breakfast for them at the area churches. Upon retirement he committed more time to his volunteerism, he followed Mariner’s baseball, enjoyed his grandchildren, and splitting his time between his homes in Washington and Trail City, South Dakota. He is survived by his beloved wife Caroline, their five children and their families: daughter Laurie (Curt) Johnson, grandchildren Stacie and Tyler, and great-grandson Anthony; daughter Carol Nave and grandchildren Christopher, Brandon, Alexis, and Danielle; son Dennis (Lori) Grad and grandchildren Katie, Ireti and Cameron; son Darrel (Pam) Grad and grandchildren Lindsey and Samantha; and son James. He is preceded in death by son-inlaw Greg Nave, mother Agnes and father Alois. Jim will be buried at Tahoma National Cemetery. A memorial will be held on January 14, 2013 at St. John the Baptist in Covington. In lieu of flowers, remembrances in Jim’s name can be sent to Kent Food Bank. 723081
