Lewis (Louie) Franklin Dean
‘ On January 12, 1953 Lewis (Louie) Franklin
Dean was born at the downtown Shelton Hos—
g, pital. Max and Betty (Allen) Dean were proud
" * to have Louie join his brother, Casey, born 15
monthsearlier. Three years later his sister, Lor-
raine, joined the family. Louie’s childhood “on
the hill” in Union, WA was a routine of swim-
ming and fishing in Hood Canal, hunting in the
woods, riding bikesand motorcycles. He was an
accomplished athlete setting and holding several
records at Hood Canal School. He made friends
easily and cherished those friendships through-
out his life. An avid reader, he could talk to any—
body about anything. The many Allen/Morris/
Dean camping trips instilled a love for the outdoors that he turned
into a life-time of exploring. He loved the history of the PNW and
became part of that legacy as a high country tree faller. His father al-
ways said Louie would have been very comfortable being born a couple
hundred years earlier as a frontiersman. Even in modern times Louie
brought down an elk near Snoqualmie Pass with his muzzle-loading
rifle, trapped and tanned a beaver, fished big salmon in Alaska, and
was part of a black-powder group.
Louie passed on November 21, 2020, succumbing to cancer. His
mother preceded him in death in April, 2016. He will be remembered
for his easy smile, gentle nature, athleticism, and good conversations.
Besides the many friends and relatives who will miss Louie, his fami-
ly includes his son Levi, wife Laura and their children: Kendal (Dean)
Van Campbell (Ian), Gage Dean, Madison Raleigh, Hadly Dean, and
Marissa Raleigh. Son Casey,wife Katie and theirchildren Grayson
and Holland Dean. His partner, Debbie Ryckman, and her family
that became his own. Father, Max Dean; brother Casey Dean, wife
Dawn and their children Katie and Cari. Sister Lorraine,husband
Randy and their children Nicole Coots Adams (Chris) their children
Betty, Brixton and Brinley, and Riley Coots (Morgan) and their child
\
Hazel.
A celebration of Louie’s life will be planned in 2021.

Frederic Joel Arthur \
Frederic Joel Arthur passed on Saturday,
November 7, 2020, due to cancer. He was born
‘ , March 14, 1950, in Eugene, Oregon, when his
father, Gerald Evan Arthur, was a GI Bill stu-
dent at the University of Oregon, having served
in the US Army during World War II in the Pa-
cific. Joel’s mom was Margaret Guentz Arthur,
of Spokane, Washington, also a WWII vet, having
served in the Navy in San Francisco. as a WAVE.
Joel spent the majority of his youth in Portland,
Oregon, discovering his lifelong passion of sail-
ing when he was 16 and learned to sail with his
friend, Roger Cole, on the Cole‘ family sailboat on
the Columbia River. While in high school, Joel
was a star baseball player and bowler. After graduating from James
Madison HS in Portland (1968), Joel spent three years at Oregon
State University, in Civil Engineering, and then took a break to work
in California before he enlisted in the US Navy. He was stationed in
Guam at Naval Communications Station during the final years of the
Vietnam .War. After active duty in the Navy, he spent six years as a
Naval Reservist and began attending Portland State University, as
an accounting major. He enjoyed time on the PSU fencing team, too.
He met his wife J ulie(née Yeager) while he was a student at PSU,
and after telling her of the tropical beauty of Guam, and the great
sailing there, they got married, Julie got a job at the University of
Guam, and they shipped his Hobie Cat (Bien Hoa) to Guam, where
they lived, sailed, SCUBA’d, explored the jungle, and Joel surfed. Joel
worked at the Bosun’s Locker, a marine supply store, a job that en-
abled him to meet every recreational sailor on the island and also.
those who sailed to Guam and beyond, and to invite every transiting
sailor home for a hot shower and meal. After Guam, they moved to
Stockton, California, where Joel graduated with a bachelor’s degree
in Mathematics in 1986 from University of the Pacific, and explored
the San Joaquin River Delta in their second sailboat, a 26-foot swing
keel Clipper Marine (Sandscape), the replacement for Bien Hoa,
which they sold before leaving Guam. In 1987, they moved to Arcata,
California, where Joel worked as a math tutor at College of the Red-
woods and crewed for other captains on several coastal sailing expedi-
tions, both south to San Diego and north to Glacier Bay, Alaska. They
moved to Tacoma, Washington in 1999. In 2000, they bought prop-
erty on Harstine Island and loved spending time on the island when
they weren’t working. By this time, they were on their third sailboat,
a 26-foot fixed keel boat (Tekoa) and Joel was working at Breakwater
Marina in Tacoma. After retiring in 2012, while Julie was still work-
ing, Joel fulfilled a lifelong dream of sailing single-handed down the
West Coast on their fourth sailboat, a 38-foot Hughes (Instigator), and
ending up in Guaymas, Sonora, Mexico after a number of adventures
at sea. He left the boat there and spent several happy winters visiting
Instigator and sailing on the Sea of Cortez. In 2019, they bought a
house on Harstine Island with the goal of retiring there. Joel was an
avid athlete in his younger days, downhill skiing, playing racquetball
and tennis, golfing, fencing, and armchair quarterbacking.
He will be remembered as an out-going man who would do any-
thing both for his friends as well as for strangers, who loved sailing
almost as much as he loved his wife, and who had distinct likes and
dislikes in the culinary area. He also had quite a way with dogs,
training J eef and Bax to be wonderful companions. He is survived by
his wife of 39 years, Julie, of Shelton and Tacoma; his sister, Jean Ar-
thur (Lynn Sellegren), niece Gretchen Sellegren, and nephew Bridger
Sellegren, Bozeman, Montana; his brother David Arthur, Gresham,
Oregon, and numerous cousins. He was preceded in death by his dad,
Gerry, and his mom, Marge.
At his request, there will be no services, but the family might host
a picnic in his memory next summer.
