Th0masWesley Hawes, Jr. ,
YOU LEARN I
Thomas Wesley Hawes, Jr.,
78, passed away on Wednes-
day, November 8, 2017, follow-
ing a long illness.
Tom was born on June
30, 1939 in Port-
land, Oregon to
Thomas, Sr., and
Alice Hawes. He
attended Benson
High School in
Portland, Oregon
and was active in
the Boy Scouts of
America, achiev-
ing Eagle Scout
status and par-
ticipating in the associated
Sea Scouts organization.
That interest in seafaring
led Tom to enlist in the U.S.
Navy in 1956 as a boilerman.
Over the course of his twenty-
year career with postings as
far away as U.S. Naval Air
Station Agana in Guam, Tom
served aboard the Baltimore
class cruiser USS Los Ange-
les (CA 135) and USS Brush
(DD 745), an Allen M. Sumner
class destroyer. Tom reached
the rate of Petty Officer First
Class (E-6) and received
a number of commenda-
tions from the U.S. Navy,
including the Good Con-
duct Medal (Third Award),
Armed Forces Expedition-
ary Medal (Taiwan Straits),
and National Defense Service
Medal. While stationed in
Long Beach, California, Tom
met and married his wife of
54 years, Laura Bess.
After he retired from
the U.S. Navy in 1976, Tom
and Bess moved their fam-
ily to Goldendale. Here,
Tom worked at the Klickitat
County Sheriff's Office for
20 years, eventually serving
as Superintendent of the Jail
before retiring in 1996. He
returned after retirement
to work an additional three
years as Superintendent of
Jails for his best friend, Sher-
iff Rick McCo-
mas.
He is survived
by his wife,
Laura Bess; son
Thomas Hawes
III; daughters
Sheril Hawes and
Karla (Hawes)
Devries; son-in-
law Jay Devries;
sister Allaire (Hawes) Henne-
man; grandchildren Brit-
tany, Teegan, and Grady; and
great-grandchildren Brady
and Kacie. He is preceded in
death by his parents, his step
mother Olivia Hawes and his
beloved dog Nick.
Tom enjoyed golfing and
fishing in his free time and
frequently engrossed himself
in handyman projects to the
benefit of many. The Golden-
dale community was family
to Tom. He enjoyed coffee
with his friends every morn-
ing and was a 33-year mem-
ber of American Legion Post
#116 in Goldendale. Tom's
family and friends would like
to thank the people of Golden-
dale, especially Rick McCo-
mas and Connie and Larry
Riches for the consideration
shown to him as his demen-
tia worsened. The small-town
kindness and concern made
his final years easier.
A celebration of life will be
held at the American Legion
on Friday, Dec. 1, at 5:30 p.m.
