Janet Bates

I knew Janet when we both worked at the Forest Service in Ellensburg in the 60's. There was never a day when she wasn't upbeat and so nice. Janet always had a great smile for everyone!

I worked with Jan back in the late 60´s and early 70´s. Jan was always a big help, always pleasant. It was a prilvege to be able to work along side her. And I still remember the stories about the family of ratcoons that lived in their house

I was privileged to know Janet for the last almost four years. She was the total person, beautiful, smart, funny, caring, sweet, strong - everything good that you know. A great role model for anyone. She leaves a huge hole in my heart with her passing, while still filling it, all at once. I´ll never forget this beautiful woman, and I´ll miss her always.
