Please give the kids my best from \u201cMr. Bruce!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As I mentioned at the beginning of this blog, a career in public service is often prompted by wanting to make our communities better for today\u2019s residents, as well as tomorrow\u2019s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In my lifetime, no one exemplified this more than former Governor Dan Evans. He served during a more genial, collaborative time in government. I considered him my mentor and I\u2019m grateful for the many lessons I learned from him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He passed away at the age of 98 in September and I was honored to attend a celebration of his life and service at the University of Washington this week. His storied commitment to public service included three terms as a governor of the state of Washington, one term as our U.S. Senator, President of Evergreen State College, and a Trustee at his alma mater, the University of Washington.&nbsp; He championed education, fiscal conservatism, environmental causes, and human rights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The University of Washington wrote: \u201cIn every role and in all that he did, he was unshakably committed to his values and integrity, which always served as his north star. He believed deeply in civility, mutual respect, and bipartisanship, and throughout his long career in public service, he refused to sacrifice his principles for the sake of expediency or personal advancement.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>His character and leadership stood out the most to me.&nbsp; He unfailingly did what he thought was right for people of Washington, regardless of political consequences. &nbsp;Among the legacy he leaves behind for our benefit, he helped create the North Cascades National Park and Alpine Lakes Wilderness Area, founded Evergreen State College, and embraced Vietnamese refugees after the fall of Saigon in 1975. You can read his full obituary<a href=\"https:\/\/obituaries.seattletimes.com\/obituary\/daniel-evans-1091239679\"> here<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Speaking of public service, I want to congratulate the new and returning County leaders from the General Election: Executive-elect Ryan Mello; Sheriff-elect Keith Swank; Assessor-Treasurer-elect Marty Campbell; Council Member-elect Rosie Ayala; and returning Council Members Amy Cruver, Paul Herrera and Jani Hitchen.&nbsp; Also, congratulations to our newly elected Superior Court Judges: TaTeasha Davis, Rebecca Reeder, Scott Peters, Phil Thornton, and Ingrid McLeod.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before I wrap up this blog, I want to invite you to join us for a fun holiday celebration \u2013 the annual tree lighting at the County-City Building!&nbsp; Can you believe the holidays are already upon us?&nbsp; Come swing by the CCB on December 3 at 12:30 as we kick off the season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thanks for reading,<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"79\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.piercecountywa.gov\/executive\/files\/2022\/02\/Bruce-blue-signature-small-1.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3352\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Bruce<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Many of us are drawn to public service out of a strong desire to make things better for the generations who will follow us.&nbsp; I know I was.
