Former Kirkland deputy mayor Doreen Marchione dies at 80 - Kirkland Reporter

According to a city of Redmond press release, Marchione was born and raised in Seattle. She graduated from St. Edwards, Holy Names Academy and Seattle University. For more than 30 years, Marchione was dedicated to public service. During her 15 years as CEO of Hopelink — the largest provider of social services in north and east King County — she oversaw a 150 percent increase in the number of residents Hopelink assisted. In the city release, Hopelink CEO Lauren Thomas said Marchione was instrumental in developing Hopelink’s Avondale Park housing facility. It bears her name today, leaving a legacy that “holds local families in her arms,” Thomas said. “She was so much more than a great leader. Doreen was a mentor, and a fierce advocate for those in need; a caring, passionate woman who wore her heart on her sleeve and lived her commitment to our community every single day,” Thomas said in the release. “She will be deeply missed, and her passion will be carried forward through the lives of her family, friends, and Hopelink family.” Marchione also served on multiple regional boards and committees, including 15 years on the Seattle University College of Arts and Sciences Leadership Council, State Transportation Improvement Board, Commissioner of King County Housing Authority, president of the Washington State Association of Community Agencies, and board member of the Kirkland Performance Center. “Doreen was a true force of nature in our region,” said Joan McBride, former Washington state representative for the 48th Legislative District, in the release. “Befriending and mentoring countless women on the Eastside, Doreen set the example of collegiality and dignity that exemplifies the best in an elected official. May her legacy of commitment to the community, zeal for justice, and dedication to the precepts of good government live on.” Marchione is mother to current Redmond Mayor John Marchione. A funeral mass will be held at 11 a.m. on Aug. 2 at Holy Family Catholic Church in Kirkland. Friends are invited to view photos and share memories in the family’s online guest book at www.flintofts.com. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in Doreen’s name to Hopelink or the Kirkland Performance Center. Doreen Marchione is survived by her four sons, John, Paul (Grainne), Michael (Christina) and David, and four grandchildren, Andrew, Maria, Sofia and Daniel. She is also survived by her significant other, Robert Caldwell and her brother, John Foster. -- -- ...

Whitleigh Woods - it certainly brightened up my day." Read More But her brighter day didn't last long as the comments soon rolled in. Maree Edwards asked: "Were they a memorial or just a gift to anyone?" Charlotte Taylor said: "Maybe a dog had passed away and they left them for that." The woman quickly replied: "I'm a dog walker so that hits me even harder :-( will replace them tomorrow." Several people then pointed out the flowers could even be a memorial to a deceased person - possibly a murder victim. Teresa Ricketts said: "I know there was a murdered woman found in the woods a few years back maybe her family left them as it may be her anniversary." Read More Tina Mark Nutbrown added: "Its coming up to the anaversary (sic) of the lady that was found there people lave flowers and a memorial." The walker has promised to replace the flowers.

Bay Nature Magazine: Why Do Flowers Exist? - Bay Nature

Age of Dandelions. Contra Costa goldfields (Lasthenia conjugens) in Solano County. (Photo by Stephen Edwards) The Bay Area is blessed with many wonderful places to see wildflowers. In Napa County just outside Calistoga is the Oat Hill Mine Trail. This old wagon road is steep, connecting with trails to Mount Saint Helena in Robert Louis Stevenson State Park, but the floristic reward is great—lupines, larkspurs, and many other species plus sweeping vistas. One of my favorite mid-April hikes is Chimney Rock at the westernmost tip of the Point Reyes Peninsula. Pussy ears, a lily that lives up to its name, are a favorite there, along with lots of Douglas irises and goldfields. Just south of San Francisco, San Bruno Mountain offers several unique plants and insects. Mitchell Canyon on the northeast lower side of Mount Diablo has fantastic displays of mariposa lilies. Edgewood Park in Redwood City is a small refuge with an abundant display of native flowers, including many adapted to the park’s rocky serpentine grasslands. Among these flowers are a few serpentine endemics—plants that can only grow on serpentine soil. Henry Coe State Park south of San Jose is HUGE!! But the rangers recommend Manzanita Point Road for the best display. Hiking here anytime is great, but the chance to see the gorgeous wildflowers of spring is dessert.
