Britt Mortimer Obituary

As a child from a military family she resided in California, Ohio, Florida, Wyoming, Hawaii, Virginia and Nebraska, before moving to Bellevue, Washington, in 1973. There she attended Hyak Junior High School and graduated from Interlake High School in 1978. Britt worked for several years at Barnaby's in Seattle and Tukwila, at Calabria in Kirkland and the Lazy K in Carnation. After a courageous battle with cancer, Britt left us on January 1st.

I just learned of her passing tonight from Biff Moss. I had the privaledge of knowing Britt for many years working at Barnaby's as well as after she left there. She was one of the special ones, and I will deeply miss her upbeat spirit and kindness. My thoughts go out to her family, as well as to Dale.

I met Britt while she was working at Barnabys and feel very fortunate to have known her. I was so shocked to have learned of her passing. She was the most positive and optimistic person I have ever met. I am certain that if there truly is a heaven then Britt is surely there.

I worked with Britt for a long time at Barnaby's-she was such a fun gal-we went to a few concerts together at the St Michelle Winery and hung out quite a bit in our "single" days. So sad to hear about this...she will be missed by many...
