Fresh steelhead
season coming up
We expect to begin receiving
fresh whole-bodied steelhead in
Siletz from the Oregon Department
of Fish & Wildlife’s Siletz River
fish trap sometime in late June and
continuing into the summer.
Distribution will take place with
Natural Resources staff at the east
side of the old USDA building.
We only get a couple hours
notice that we will receive fish on
any particular day, so if you want
to receive a phone call or an email
to say that we are expecting fish
that day, please contact Natural
Resources Manager Mike Ken-
nedy at 541-444-8232 or Natural
Resources Administrative Assistant
Rosie Williams at 541-444-8227 to
get on our notification list.
Please note that we will not
accept notes to pick up fish for some-
one else. Instead, we will allow each
household that shows up to pick up
1-3 fish, depending on the number of
fish we get that day. We encourage
folks to share their fish with other
family members and neighbors.

Salem on streets and roads.
In his spare time, Gordon enjoyed
fishing and hunting.

He was born in Toledo, Ore., on Nov.

Williams. He enlisted in the U.S. Marine
Corps at age 17 and received commenda-
tion for his expert marksmanship. He was
the high shooter from his series, scoring
232 out of a possible 250 points at the
rifle range.
Gordon was a devoted family man.
He is survived by his life-partner, Cindy
Belgarde; his mother, Carol Williams;
his children, whom he loved with all his
heart – daughters Gayle Williams-York of
Kentucky and Letitia Williams of Illinois;
and sons Nick Williams of Sheridan, Ore.,

many nieces and nephews.
His father and brother, Stacey W.
Williams, preceded Gordon in death.
A memorial service was held May 2

In lieu of flowers, the family asks
that donations be made in Gordon’s name
to the Mario Pastega House, 3505 NW

Rest in Peace, “Chief of Chiefs.”
Love, the Hammetts
To friends and family: We would
like to thank everyone who came to

reminiscing about the good ole days.
We would also like to thank

Thank you from our hearts.
