FALL 2017 $3.95 Who Was Hallie Ford?

allie Ford (1905- 2007) graduated Hfrom East Central Uni- versity in Oklahoma, and moved to Oregon as a young woman. With the resources of the Ford Family Foundation, of which she was one of the founders, she worked tirelessly to benefit ed- ucation and the arts in Oregon, earning wide recognition for her philan- thropic efforts. As a trustee of Willamette University, Mrs. Ford generously supported student scholarships, academic programs and the arts. Mrs. Ford's appreciation for art began in her youth. She recalled that her fourth-grade teacher once sent a note home to her mother requesting special art lessons for her. The family was financially unable to provide these lessons. Wanting to spare her daughter from disappointment, her mother waited until she was grown to tell her about the recommendation. Consequently, Mrs. Ford's devotion to education and the arts sprung from her desire to give others the op- portunity to realize and fulfill their talents. A turning point in her life came when Mrs. Ford moved to Salem and began painting classes at Wil- lamette University with Professor Carl Hall. Here she found a measure of personal fulfillment and a welcoming community that espoused her values of service and teaching. SM

-50- Continental Dining FINE & CASUAL

Randy Pesek t's been 5 months since Bruce Rafaei has opened his new restaurant & bar called Bari in Salem, Oregon. Next to the Historic Elsinore Theater, Bari serves Continental Cuisine, cocktails, and features an extensive Oregon and IGlobal wine list. Bari also features the largest art gallery of original Northwest painters, truly wooing the perpetual experience of casual fine diner. "'Casual' for creating an environment that is welcoming to everyone, and 'fine,' for the quality of service of food." Says Mr. Rafaei ever so smoothly. He's been in the restaurant industry for over 20 years and it shows. Surprisingly, his career literally began next door at DaVinci's, a renowned Ristorante & Wine Bar. "It was Mo Afshar, the owner of DaVinci's, that mentored me." Mr. Rafaei told me with an attitude of gratitude and a smile on his face. "He developed the passion for food, wine, cocktails, and hospitality in me. It's the one reason I choose to do this. He sparked that passion in me." Rafaei spent over 10 years working his way up at DaVinci's. You know how it goes; start your way from the bottom, earn your dues, do the right thing... "Mo was very supportive of me." Says Rafaei. "He believed in me." After taking some time off and traveling Europe, Mr. Rafaei worked for Mo's brother, Hans Afshar, the owner of Orupo down the other side of the street. He was able to gain more hospitality experience which he is very appre- ciative for from Hans. It was after this when Rafaei embarked to open his very own restaurant & bar, Bari, which is located between to two brother's establishments, Orupo and DaVinci's, a symbol of family, strength, and honor to be recognized. Bari serves Continental Cuisine using the best ingredients in the Northwest. They make their foods from scratch, even their own sauces which are gluten free. Mr. Rafaei has said "We are gluten free conscious, and have accommo- dated guests battling a celiac disease" by making respectable small tweaks that stay true to originality of the dishes. Like the Fresh Salmon for example, served with barberry saffron butter sauce. Or the sausage and beef, Stuffed Sweet Peppers, with Tuscan sauce. Yes, I did mention saffron, the most expensive herb in the world. Not to be confused with Fusion Cuisine, a global fusion of foods, Bari serves Continental Cuisine which focuses on the eclectic Western foods of Europe, the America's, Australia, and the nearby Oceanic neighbors like New Zealand. You can imagine the western trade ships exchanging their foods and ideas from one another, a hustling and bustling trade industry across the oceans sparking the imaginations of friends, family, and chefs across the world. "It's different because most cuisines have a home. You can call them regional foods like: Chinese, Japanese, Mexican, Italian foods, etc." Says Mr. Rafaei. But like the ships of the sea, the recipes of the Western Continents have found their home thriving in the imaginations of western men, like Mr. Rafaei. Inspired by the city Bari, a historical port on the Achilles heel of Italy, Mr. Rafaei's Bari has become a port of Con- tinental Cuisine, a resting place for the traveling sails-man, a sanctuary for the artist, and a diner for the adventurously intrinsic soul. Expect flavorful foods free from styles bases on regions, new trends that stay true to originality, and friends that make you feel comfortable where ever you are from. Because just like Continental Cuisine, we all need a home of our own.

-63- Marion County Commissioner KEVIN CAMERON Files For Second Term

evin Cameron has officially filed for the 2018 elec- tion cycle for his second term in Position 1 as Mar- Kion County Commissioner. His continued commitment to the citizens of Mar- ion County has been demonstrated over the last three years as he regularly attends meetings and civic activities throughout the County. He has been successful in com- plimenting the efforts of new and expanding businesses with the infrastructure provided by the County. Cam- eron understands how government can best enhance and maintain its services for businesses to grow, com- munities to flourish and our region to maintain its great recreational icons. Kevin's strong small business background, community involvement, and legislative experience has afforded much to Marion County and our local economy during his first term. His ability to bring people and groups together has increased the visibility of the needs in the rural areas of the County and has effectively brought economic and pub- lic safety resources to the Santiam Canyon and the north Marion County communities of St. Paul, Donald and Au- rora. Cameron has demonstrated forward thinking leader- ship with the convening of local, state and federal entities to find solutions and remove barriers to economic growth. "We live in a very unique, beautiful and productive area of Oregon. Livability is part of keeping our region healthy and the addition of two deputies, one in the Santiam Can- yon and one in the northern part of the County conveys this priority,” said Commissioner Cameron. He further stated: "As your Marion County Commissioner, I will continue to put the citizens first and do everything possi- ble to support public safety and create an environment for businesses to operate and expand.” www.kevincameronfororegon.com SM -64- SALEM HEALTH Leads Effort To Integrate Social Services In Marion County

Or per- haps were you part of any number of groups watching from their favorite winery. Or part of the throngs that gathered at the State Capital? Or simple part of your neighborhood’s watch party? Personally, I was on the deck of my friend Scott’s swimming pool with a small group of family and friends. Honestly though, I don’t think I ever sat down for the last 12-15 minutes before totality. WAY too excited! Everybody was somewhere. And you’ll remember it for the rest of your lives. Notice anything different? Like the drop in tempera- ture. You could definitely feel it getting cooler...and quickly cooler towards totality. How ‘bout when your photo-sensitive street lights all woke-up early. And then there was the light. Oh my stars (sorry, bad pun) the light. It was erie, and spooky, and other-worldly, and (personally) I thought it was zombie-like.
