[ODF_Private_Forests] Kevin Weeks

[NICHOLS Rod L]

Hello everyone -

Our friend and colleague Kevin Weeks passed away Tuesday morning at his home in McMinnville, following a brief, acute illness. We don't many details, but wanted to get the word out. Many of you may have crossed paths with Kevin since he began his service as an Oregon Department of Forestry public information specialist in 2007.

As anyone who had the opportunity to collaborate with Kevin knew, he was talented, proud of the agency, good-humored, and ever-willing to go the distance to get the job done. During his time with us, he counseled and worked side by side with many people across our programs and across the state, and with staff in other agencies. He will be missed-and remembered with great fondness and respect.

His pastor says that Kevin's wife, Stacey, and daughter would cherish cards with remembrances, stories and tributes. These can be sent to Stacey Weeks at Adventure Christian Church, 2831 N.E. Newby St., McMinnville, OR  97128.

I don't have any information at this point on a memorial service or other such plans. I'll pass that along as it becomes available.

Thanks to all for your support and kind words during this challenging time.

-- Dan Postrel
