Columbia Sportswear's 'Tough Mother' Gert Boyle dies at 95 - KTVZ

An iconic photo from the campaign, which has her flexing her arm emblazoned with a "Born to Nag" tattoo, still hangs in the company's Beaverton headquarters.Boyle's father founded Columbia after the family fled Nazi Germany and settled in Portland. Her husband took over the business in 1964. When he died, the business took many calls wondering if Columbia would close and the bank urged her to sell the company.Always plucky, she entertained an offer for its sale at the time but told a prospective buyer that for the price they were offering, she'd rather run it into the ground herself.But Columbia flourished under her leadership, and that of her son.While Tim ran the operations as president, Gert Boyle continued to put in 40-hour work weeks well into her 80s and signed every company check.Columbia grew and over the years acquired key brands such as Mountain Hardwear, Pacific Trail and Sorel. The company now sells products in more than 100 countries.She was well-known for her no-nonsense attitude and boisterous personality — quick to offer staff or those nearby a "Gertism" and often a few comments not fit for print.Boyle was the first woman inducted into the National Sporting Goods Hall of Fame and often recognized for her work as a female business leader, including a book on her experience.She had three children with her husband, Neil, who was her college sweetheart. Tim Boyle is president of the company, her daughter Sally runs Portland company Moonstruck Chocolates and her daughter Kathy is an artist.She had five grandchildren.---News release from Columbia Sportswear:Portland-based Columbia Sportswear Co. on Sunday announced the passing of Gert Boyle, the company's well-known chairman of the board and its matriarch for nearly 50 years."Our 'One Tough Mother' held many jobs at Columbia, from seamstress of the first fishing vest to president to advertising icon," a company statement said."Her sharp wit and wisdom helped propel the company from near bankruptcy in the early ‘70s to the global multi-brand company it is today, with annual net sales of almost $3 billion in 2018," the company said. "Her pioneering role as a woman in what was then a male-dominated industry is a testament to her strength of character and ability to persevere through difficult situations.""Gert's humor and busine...

'He lived for today': Friends and family remember chiropractor killed by fallen tree limb

Ronald Kibert's friends used to say he'd live to be 100.And he'd spend those days in motion. The Beaverton chiropractor zigzagged the nation for professional conferences, where he'd spend days learning in lectures and nights listening to live music. He was an avid dancer and reader. Even at age 67, he was full of energy."He lived for today," longtime friend Lee Kennedy said. "He didn't let a day go by without doing something."Kibert was killed April 7 after windstorms blew loose a tree limb that struck him in his Garden Home yard, his family said. The Washington County Sheriff's Office said he was found unconscious, and he died from his injuries at Oregon Health and Science University.Friends, family and patients from Kibert's nearly 40 years as a chiropractor filled his memorial service at Opal 28 last weekend. The crowd couldn't fit into the building and spilled out on to the patio and sidewalk, said Carmen Kirby, Kibert's partner of 15 years.His daughter, Brynn, described her father as a colorful personality."He liked having fun in his life," Brynn said. "He just seemed joyful. (OregonLive.com)
