In memory of Andrew Paul Reasoner

1973-2007

At the end of 2007, the McKenzie River Trust lost one of its staff members to cancer.  Andy Reasoner, our Conservation Director since April 2005, passed away peacefully at home on December 25^th. He is survived by his wife Amy, unborn daughter Ava, step-daughter Erin and a very large, loving family. 

A native Oregon and outdoorsman, Andy was passionately committed to a future in which all of those that follow us will be able to enjoy the natural areas and fish and wildlife that grace us today.  That passion carried through his fisheries work with ODFW, his wetlands conservation work with Ducks Unlimited, and most recently with all that he did for the Trust. 

Andy had a special mix of land conservation field experience, a deep-rooted land ethic, and a natural ability to make others comfortable in his presence.  A friend to everyone he met, Andy will be missed greatly and his unique character not soon forgotten.
