Stop, In the Name of Love… Before you Break… Someone.

Posted on October 9, 2023 by Thom Hoch

I’m sure most of you have seen this new addition to the intersection near the office.  I’d like to thank everyone who wanted it, who spoke up for it, who voted for it, and who installed it.

The intention has always been to take steps to make the area around the office and that intersection a little safer. We have a lot of congestion at times in that area, and having everyone slowing down for the Stop sign sure seems like a good idea, especially for walkers, bikers, and those with walkers and wheelchairs.

By the way, those colorful markings on the pavement around the sign are from the “call before digging” locator service, who we use when digging anywhere in the Park.

And Thank You for Stopping.

He served in the Navy before moving to Oregon. Carl worked for Roseburg Lumber and operated three assisted-living care homes.

After he retired as Manager of Timber Valley, he was a much-appreciated handyman who many of us fondly remember.

He will be missed.
