MY TRIBUTE TO MARK HATFIELD
Tillman Houser
My freshman year at Salem, Oregon high school found me in the same home-room with Mark Hatfield. Since both our last names began with “H,” we saw each other daily. Always carefully dressed with shirt and tie with trousers of “cords.” This is the way he dressed throughout our time together the four years of high school.
It took a little time to get acquainted because he always seemed a little reserved. When I told my...

While I was in high school, we also went Christmas Caroling at the Governor's mansion and he and his wife came out to greet us. That impressed me too.

I met Senator Hatfield in 1977 while helping him move in Georgetown. I was a day laborer, and he sat down during a break and talked to us like we were peers. What a great and humble man.

Hatfield was a great Governor and Senator. I first met him when I was 14 years old. He was a wonderful influence in my life by his words of encouragement. A supporter of the Arts as well as Native culture, he told me to always do my best, get my work out there for people to see and share my creativity with the world. Thank you Sen. Hatfield.
