Jimmie R. Evans

Aug 6, 1942 - May 26, 2004
Longtime resident of Snohomish County and a Vietnam Veteran, Jimmie is the son of Irma, father of Tim and Jamie Evans and husband of Sandra Silver (Evans).

He is survived by his sisters, Bonnie Cherry, Jeanne Belles and June McCullough; grandson Owen Evans; one niece and nine nephews.

Jimmie was a courageous soldier and warrior who championed truth, justice and equality in his professional and private life.

He had a long and highly respected career in corrections, serving as a Captain for the Monroe Corrections Complex.

He was a leader, respected and admired by those he touched. Jimmie was a visionary who had a unique combination of wit, humor and the ability to simplify even the most complex tasks. His philosophy was "if you're going to move a mountain, you do it a bucket at a time". This philosophy was shared by his father who proceeded him in death.

Although unpretentious, his principles were evident in his day to day life at home and work. He constantly challenged life with a spirited approach which had a profound influence on those around him. Jimmie was a non-conformist who lived his life according to his personal convictions.

He will always be loved and so missed by all who knew him.

In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to your favorite charity.

A memorial will be held at the Monroe Complex.

Keith Revoir

Keith E. Revoir of Everett, 54, went home to be with his Lord on Monday, May 25, 2004.

He loved life, particularly his friends and family, but above all, the Lord. Keith was born on February 1, 1950. He graduated with honors from Everett High School in 1968 and Everett Community College in 1970. Keith was always involved in sports, excelling in basketball and baseball. He was an avid Mariners, Seahawks, and Huskies fan. Keith also enjoyed golfing with his "TAGS" team members and on the "Dropouts" bowling league.

In June of 1970, Keith met his wife, Jeanette, while "Cruisin' Colby." They were married on October 22, 1971, shared 34 wonderful years together, and raised two children Adam (age 26) and Kelli (age 24). Keith worked at American Ice and Cold Storage with his Dad and brother, Jon, until 1974 when he returned to school. Keith graduated from the University of Washington with honors in 1977. Shortly thereafter, he began working at Associated Sand and Gravel (now Rinker Materials) as the accountant for the pre-stress dept. Keith worked extremely hard for the company and ended his career of 27 years as the Controller.

Keith was a loving and dedicated family man with a deep, abiding faith in Jesus Christ. Keith was a long time member of The First Covenant Church in Everett. He was devoted to his church and volunteered often. Keith and Jeanette took advantage of free time during their marriage by taking weekend trips when they could, especially to the ocean. Keith enjoyed all types of music; sometimes you could catch him whistling or singing a tune. He had an amazing sense of humor; he always had the perfect comeback or the great joke that made everyone laugh. Keith was respected and loved by many co-workers, family members, friends, and acquaintances. He will be greatly missed!

His father, Harry Revoir, father-in-law, Jake Ruiter, and brother-in-law, Remco Ruiter, preceded Keith in death.

Rudolph Sydow

William Curtis Rice

William (Bill) Curtis Rice (aka Papa), born November 17, 1918 in Monticello, IA, left this world peacefully on May 25, 2004 in his beloved home by the Lake in Snohomish, WA.

Papa leaves to cherish his memory, his wife, Arbutus; son Wayne of Honolulu, HI; daughter Rosemary of Seattle; son Lester of Snohomish; daughter Tamzen of Yorktown, VA; and sister Jean North of Snohomish. His grandchildren, Emma, Erin, Will, Jackson, and Noelle will remember him always as their kind and gentle Papa who loved to watch them play by the lake and never got mad when they tangled the fishing line, which happened a lot.

Bill proudly served his country in Europe during WWII. He landed at Normandy and helped liberate the Dachau concentration camp in 1945. It was an experience he found hard to talk about, but never forgot. After the war, he came home to the Pacific Northwest to start a family and later founded Rice Business Forms, a company he ran for over 20 years in Seattle.

Papa loved animals and the outdoors. He loved a good cigar and a nice glass of bourbon. He could fix anything, build anything and always made everything seem right in the world, even when it wasn't. He'll be greatly missed by all who knew him.

Memorial Services will be held on Wednesday, June 2nd at 11:00am at St. John's Episcopal Church.
