I have called the Tri Cities home my entire life and this cemetery has ever been a part of it. Having family that has always been employed at some level has given me a deep connection and admiration for the work that is done here. My own employment history funnily enough has also led me full circle. My first job was in fact pulling weeds here as a teen. From there I journeyed my way from McDonalds, a couple server positions, to Reception at the Red lion and finally as a carrier for USPS. Approaching each job with the same hard work, detailed focus and respect I observed growing up. Now I pour everything I’ve learned towards my new position in Administration. Somewhere along the way I also received my BFA from Central Washington University following my passion in painting and photography depicting fantasy landscapes and capturing the beauty of nature. Both of which I now do in my spare time as hobbies. In 2021 I became a proud first-time homeowner where I hope to create my own small secret garden that comes even close to the one that I have the privilege of being a part of every day.
