Glenda Anne Perkins

Glenda Anne Perkins succumbed to ovarian cancer on January 6^th after nearly a four year valiant struggle against the disease.  She continued to exhibit her characteristic verve and exuberance for life throughout, as noted by her many new friends she met during her far too brief stint in Seattle.  For her, family was the single most important aspect of her daily existence.

Glenda was born in Akron, Ohio on February 26, 1947. She grew up in Kokomo, Indiana, where she met her future husband, Greg, when she was in the first grade. They were married for forty one years, and have one son Sean who is an attorney residing in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Prior to moving to Seattle, the couple lived in Iowa, Indiana, North Carolina (  Sean’s birthplace ), New Jersey, and Georgia.

She had Masters Degrees in education from Indiana University and the University of North Carolina. Outside the home after her son was grown, she was a consummate educator, concentrating on the lower grades of elementary school in which she focuseded on reading instruction. She truly loved children, and this was reflected in her abilities and achievements in this endeavor.

Glenda’s basic motto was to live life to the fullest, and few days passed when she didn’t strive for and meet this objective. Equally important, she achieved a remarkably high batting average in achieving her objective.  She enjoyed reading, travel inclusive of all the continents ( exclusive of Antarctica ), and meeting interesting and unique people.

Glenda is survived by her husband, Greg Perkins, Seattle; a son, Sean Perkins, Fort Lauderdale, Florida; brother, Mark Gill, Denver, Colorado; mother, Bonnie Gill, Denver, Colorado; and sister-in-law, Toni Kubly, Tampa, Florida. She was preceded in death by her father, Jessie Owen Gill, of Kokomo, Indiana. A memorial service will be held on a date as yet to be determined. In lieu of flowers, please send donations to The Marsha Rifkin Center for Cancer Research, Swedish Hospital.

Douglas Bunker

Douglas Bunker was born in Renton, Washington on July 19th, 1956; he passed away on December 23rd, 2009 in his home surrounded by family.   He was 53 year old when he lost his battle with cancer.

Doug grew up with 5 brothers and 2 sisters in a small 3 bedroom house in Renton and quickly learned the meaning of a close family.
Although he lived a simple life, he enjoyed it to the fullest and never let life’s challenges get in his way.   He loved bike riding, long walks, fishing and riding ATVs on the back roads at the lake.

Doug’s idea of a good day was to get up at 4:30 am, drink two pots of coffee with his brother and best friend, Tony,  grab his bike and hit the trails for 5-6 hours, come back home to have lunch, take a 6 mile walk in the afternoon, eat his crock-pot dinner and hit the sack by 7:00 pm.
He loved his job working in the warehouse at KWL in Kent, where he made some good friends, put in a hard day’s work and felt really good at the end of the day.  Thanks to all of you at KWL for making Doug feel so needed and loved, and for your commitment to him during this last year and a half.  You’ll never know how much it meant to Doug.
Doug was loved by many, but the love of his life and his best friend forever was Mona.  Thanks Mona for your dedicated friendship.  You and your family were everything to Doug that the rest of us weren’t able to be.  He treasured your friendship deeply.
Doug is survived by 4 brothers (Ken, Steve, Curt and Tony Bunker) and two sisters (Mary LeMay & Jan Means).
We will miss Doug dearly but he will be forever in our hearts.

Memorial services will be held on Friday, January 8th, 2010 at 2:00 pm at Valley View Christian Church 25605 124th Ave SE • Kent, Wa.

Dorthyan Lund

Dorthyan Lund, age 92, passed away on Thanksgiving Day, November 26, 2009, in Sammamish, Washington. She was born in Portland, Oregon to Florence and James W. Ethington on May 24, 1917. Before she was 2 years old, the marriage ended and her mother moved to Seattle where Dorthyan attended the public schools and graduated from Broadway High School. She met her future husband, Hans Lund while both were students at the University of Washington where she majored in English literature and was a member of Alpha Phi sorority. Hans and Dorthyan were married on June 20, 1938 in Seattle.  They moved to Tonasket in 1946 where Hans joined his uncle and father as an officer in The First National Bank in Tonasket. Along with supporting her husband in his banking career and raising 4 daughters, Dorthyan was actively involved in the community affairs in Tonasket including the Congregational Church, Tonasket Garden Club and serving as President of The Civic League. She supported numerous youth activities, serving as Camp Fire Leader, as Bible School Director and as Youth Fellowship Teacher in the Congregational Church and as the Governor’s appointee to a White House Conference on Youth. She was an avid reader and supporter of the library system and was appointed to State Regional Library Board.

After her youngest daughter entered college, Dorthyan spent several summers living in the dorms at the University of Washington while taking classes in Danish literature and ethnic studies. In 1979 Hans and Dorthyan moved back to Seattle where they lived on Bitter Lake for the next 23 years. Dorthyan quickly embraced a new interest by enrolling in the first of many exercise classes that ranged from Jazz Dance to Tai Chi, an activity that she continued to pursue into her 90’s.  She also embarked on an intense period of foreign travel with whomever she could round up as a traveling companion:  Aunt Rosie, a friend from the Library Board, a former UW roommate and, eventually, her husband became an enthusiastic traveler as well. Together they visited Great Britain and nearly every country in Asia, as well as Scandinavia, Switzerland, and France with their daughters and grandchildren.

In the fall of 2002, Hans and Dorthyan moved into an apartment in the Ida Culver Broadview retirement community where they both made new friends and where Dorthyan participated in both the book and play-reading clubs and in the exercise programs, being just one of the two remaining participants in the aerobic class when she celebrated her 90^th birthday. In 2008, following a sudden illness and a stay of several months in the nursing home at Ida Culver, she moved to an Adult Family Home in the Issaquah area, near the home of her daughter, Sally.

Dorthyan had many interests and talents that will long be remembered by her family and others who knew her.  She was an avid gardener and landscaper, and a talented flower arranger who won numerous blue ribbons in the Tonasket Garden Club shows. She was also an excellent cook whose meals for special occasions were legendary in her family. Her artistic nature and designer’s eye were evident in each of her homes where the treasures from her many travels were beautifully displayed. Her family was the center of her life and she embraced each new family member and generation with great interest and enthusiasm, especially delighting in activities and trips with her grandchildren, and experiencing the special joy of seeing each one of her 9 great-grandchildren.

She was preceded in death by her second daughter, Kristin (1942-1944), her mother, Florence Ethington (1890-1968), her grandson, Brett Bakke (1967-2004), and her husband of 64 years, Hans Lund (1914-2006). She is survived by 4 daughters and 2 sons-in-law:  Karen Lund and her husband, John DeMoss of Houston, TX; Judith Wood of Seattle, WA; Jani Bakke of Fort Washington, MD, and Sally Lund and her husband, Donald Campbell, of Issaquah, WA; 6 grandchildren and 9 great-grandchildren.

No funeral service is planned, but a family gathering will be held later to celebrate her life. Contributions in Dorthyan Lund’s memory may be made to the Legacy Tree Program, Seattle Parks Foundation (860 Terry Ave N, #231; Seattle, WA 98109 or online at <seattleparksfoundation.org>).

The family is extremely grateful to Viorica (Vivian) Pop and her staff at Pine Lake Adult Family Home in Sammamish, WA, not only for the loving care that Dorthyan received, but also for the generous support and guidance that Vivian gave to us.  We also thank Valer Marin Pop, Daniela (Dana) Sancraian and the rest of the Pop family, the residents, and, especially, her devoted caregivers, Tatiana (Tania) Chirica and Zinaida (Zena) Palanchuk, for their patience and kindness.

At the age of 69, Wayne A Dominick passed away peacefully on the evening of October 19th 2009 surrounded by his loving family and friends after succumbing to a long battle with heart disease. Wayne was born May 1st 1940 in Yakima, Washington. As a baby, he was adopted by Henry and Alice Dominick from Aberdeen Washington where he proceeded to grow up. After graduating from Aberdeen High School in 1958,  Wayne enlisted in the US Air Force in 1959 when he was 19 years old and enjoyed the many places in the world the military took him and often, with enjoyment, shared the stories of his experiences. After spending 6 years in the Air force, Wayne found he had a passion for sports, and began to play minor league baseball, until he decided that he enjoyed coaching even more. He went on to coach several little and minor league baseball teams as well as football teams. He undyingly enjoyed car racing, such as NASCAR, especially Sprint car racing, and spent over 12 years of the 80’s and 90’s at Skagit Speedway in the pits, which he referred to as, “the greatest place on earth,“ riding in the wrecker and push trucks. When he couldn’t be in the pits, Wayne would watch from the stands behind turn #4, where he has one day asked for his ashes to be spread. All you needed to do was just mention a sprint car, and you would witness his face light up with pure enjoyment. Also he greatly enjoyed UW husky football, wore their colors proud and often attended games with his  wife and daughter. For a living, Wayne studied to become a contractor and estimator with an asphalt company which is what became his career. He was a lifelong Western Washington resident, residing mostly in and around Skagit County.
Wayne had a passion for life, and tried to live every moment to the fullest. He had an unstoppable sense of humor, and enjoyed making people laugh, all the way to the end, he made sure the people around him had smiles on their faces. He enjoyed sharing the things he learned in life, to hopefully enlighten others. He had a strong passion for music and movies, he loved watching and listening to them on his surround sound, which he thought was one of the neatest things. Wayne enjoyed many things in his life, but mostly, he enjoyed his family, friends and dog, Baron. He loved to spend time, love and laugh with the people who were close to him, and that spirit of his will never be forgotten, but always celebrated.
