Bandon plant fancier has a flowering paradise

Hackett has lived in Coos County much of his life, growing up in the Millington area of Coos Bay, where his parents owned several properties and a roofing company. He's worked mostly as a local business owner, but also as a cranberry grower in Bandon, among other endeavors. He owned Bay Burger in Empire as well as Davey Jones Locker in Charleston for 16 years. He met his wife Wanda during that time and moved to Bandon. He and Wanda ran Jack's Pizza (formerly Ragtime Pizza, now Brewed Awakenings) and also owed the Bandon Bay Company, located in Old Town. A jack of many trades, Hackett also is a builder. He built all the buildings on his property, including their home, shop and many outbuildings. He has a passion for making birdhouses, which he now gives away. He tried selling them once, but people wanted to special order and then he had to make them, which took the fun away.  Wanda supports what he's doing, but doesn't have the passion for it that her husband does. "Seventy-five percent of the people in the Rhododendron Society are men," Hackett said. "We all work together and support each other. I think it's just the challenge. I just love it." Tom and Liz Hultin and Bob and Marjene MacIntyre are two other local couples, among others, who also are rhododendron enthusiasts. MacIntyre, who is the most knowledgeable of the group, was former president of the local chapter and is now president of the national chapter of the American Rhododendron Society. He recently attended the annual meeting in Williamsburg, VA. While there is no overall plan, Hackett just wants to cover most of his property with flowering bushes and trees. It all keeps him busy most days, between taking care of the gardens and attending meetings and functions. He also hosts the annual picnic for the local rhododendron society chapter and other events at his property. Something is in bloom in his garden all year long. Rhodies bloom through July; then the hydrangeas kick in. Hackett wants to encourage people to come out to tour the property and hopes to publicize his gardens through local businesses.  "I think it could be an attraction for this area someday, if I keep going -- and I will keep going," he said. "I'd like to have something here that everyone can enjoy." For more information about the Southwestern Oregon Chapter of the American Rhododendron Society, those interested can visit http://www.sworegon-ars.org/. Monthly meetings are the third Thursday of the month, with social time at 6:30 p.m., meeting at 7 p.m. at the Coos-Curry Housing Authority, 1700 Monroe Ave., North Bend. Everyone is welcome.

Sheridan, 99, of Eastside, at 1 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 9, at Sunset Memorial Park Cemetery, 63060 Millington Frontage Road in Coos Bay, with pastor Don Berney of New Beginnings Christian Fellowship presiding.

She passed away peacefully, with her daughter at her side, Jan. 1, 2016, at Always There Adult Foster Home in North Bend, where she resided. Florence and her younger brother, Gene, grew up in Eastside, where her parents opened Eastside’s first grocery store. For easier accessibility, they had the store moved from the waterfront to the old location of Boyd’s Market. They also successfully petitioned the state of Oregon to build a bridge at the location of the current bridge connecting Eastside to Coos Bay. Florence attended Eastside school, Coos River and Marshfield High schools and graduated from, what is now Oregon State University, with a degree in secretarial science.
