Jack Hardesty, Green Councilman from Ashland OR, dies at 78

The Mail Tribune reports the death of Ashland, OR Councilman Jack Hardesty, 78. He died last week in his sleep.

This is adapted from the Mail Tribune article:

He and his wife Alice moved to Ashland in 1993 and they opened Graven Images Gallery shortly after arriving. Political activism and social service soon followed. The Hardestys started Citizens for Responsible Government, the Ashland Gallery Association and the Asian Arts Society. He was elected to the Ashland City Council in 2004 and served as a member of the Pacific Green Party.

Every one of us try to add what we can to the stew, hoping to be able to contribute. Jack and Alice have brought more spice to life than many. Jack will be missed.
