From the memories of those who knew him best, Oregon’s most sought-after moderator and close friend to the Senator, Kerry Tymchuk, will weave an unforgettable evening of stories, memories and tributes to the remarkable life of Senator Mark O. Hatfield.
“In the 152 years since our statehood, perhaps no Oregonian impacted history more than Mark Hatfield. Throughout his remarkable public service career, Mark Hatfield earned a reputation for intelligence, integrity, courage, and character. His Washington, D.C. office was a training ground for countless Oregonians who, inspired by Senator Hatfield’s example, returned to Oregon to make a positive difference for their community and our state. He was a very proud supporter of the Oregon Historical Society, and the Mark O. Hatfield Distinguished Historians Forum will live on as a fitting tribute to this true giant of Oregon history.” - Kerry Tymchuk, OHS Interim Executive Director
