Today we mourn the loss of Steve Bleifuhs, a longtime member of our Water and Land Resources Division leadership team, who died in a small plane crash. We also celebrate all Steve achieved during his nearly 30-year career at the Department of Natural Resources and Parks as a talented environmental steward and trusted manager. As Division Director Josh Baldi told The Seattle Times: “On the one hand, he was very serious and committed — what you would expect out of a talented professional. But he had this incredible playful streak.” Read the tribute in the Seattle Times: https://lnkd.in/g5f5yZBB Image description: Steve Bleifuhs kneels on a rocky riverbank at Gold Creek in winter.
