Obituary: Leslie V. Tonkin

15, 1940- 26, 2016

Les Tonkin passed away quietly following a courageous battle with renal cancer. Les had many great passions and contributed in numerous ways to the quality of life we enjoy in the Puget Sound region.

First and foremost, Les loved his family and friends and will be greatly missed by all especially his wife Karin Hunt, his son Matthew, daughter-in-law, Katy, granddaughter Samantha, daughter Terry and brother Richard. Les was preceded in death by his wife of 35 years Liz Tonkin who passed away in 2006.
A successful architect for almost 40 years, Les formed his original practice Tonkin/Greissinger Architecture with his good friend Walt Greissinger in Pioneer Square in the late 1970s to pursue specialties in historic preservation and affordable housing. Through various iterations, Tonkin Architecture fulfilled Les original objectives and left an amazing legacy in the many successful projects he designed.

Accomplishments included purchase and restoration of the Triangle Tavern Building on First Ave where many sports fans have celebrated Mariners and Seahawks victories, Wallingford which turned a surplus elementary school into the heart of the neighborhood, Rainier Vista which turned dilapidated public housing into a vibrant mixed-income community, and thousands of other affordable and market-rate units for clients as diverse as Mercy Housing NW, Low Income Housing Institute, Seattle, King , Tacoma and Archdiocesan Housing Authorities.

The Winthrop Hotel in Tacoma and Building 9 at Sand Point were the last two projects on which Les worked and he rests easy knowing the talented and dedicated staff at Tonkin Architecture will carry them on with the professionalism and excellence he strived to meet in every project.

Les was born in Chicago, but his family moved to Belmont, CA at a very young age where he lived until he earned his degree in Architecture from the University of Oregon and became a lifelong Duck fan before opening his practice in Seattle.

Les loved his annual fall pesto parties and took delight in being the official photographer for all occasions among family and friends. He was rarely seen without a camera in his possession. A great day for Les always included a game of handball to which he never tired of recruiting new players. Les also loved to travel especially to Italy and Mexico where he had many memorable experiences and friends.

He will be greatly missed by all who crossed his path.

A celebration of Les life is planned for , 30th at 1:30 PM. Palace Ballroom. 2100 5th Ave

Remembrances can be made to Washington Trust for Historic Preservation (www.preservewa.org) or the Housing Development Consortium of Seattle-King (www.housingconsortium.org).

Obituary: Chris Owen Tonge, age 52, of Poulsbo passed away at home in the early morning hours of 14, 2015 due to an aortic aneurysm. He was born on 11, 1962 to Tom and Margie Tonge. He grew up in Bremerton and graduated from Central Kitsap High School. In 1981, he married the love of his life and best friend, Marlys. He was an adoring husband and amazing father to their two children Scott and Stephanie. Chris and Marlys lived in Bremerton until building their dream home in Poulsbo in 2002.

Chris worked for the Central Kitsap School District for 30 years and was known for popping in and surprising his wife and grandchildren when he was working at their schools. An avid outdoorsman, he loved to go for walks with his wife to old bridges, waterfalls, on the beach or in the woods. He also enjoyed riding his motorcycle with his favorite dirt-bike buddy, Danny, and his son. Seahawks and Sounders games were always a favorite pastime as well as learning about the civil war and the history of the Puget Sound. He served as the best man in his sons wedding in 2005 and had the honor of walking his daughter down the aisle in 2013. night dates with his wife were the highlight of his week. Chris was the king of the putt putt golf course, a hardcore foosball player and a master jigsaw-puzzler. He loved letting his grandkids drive his lawnmower and tractor around their property, getting into mischief as all grandpas are supposed to do and was a professional hot cocoa maker. Chris was always ready to laugh and have a good time.

Chris was preceded in death by his mother, Margie Tonge. He is survived by his wife of 33 years, Marlys Tonge, his father Tom Tonge, brother Carl (Wendy) Tonge, his two children Scott (Erin) Tonge, and Stephanie (Zach) Gibbs-Churchley and his three grandchildren Sloane Tonge- age 8, Ethan Tonge- age 6 and Madalyn Gibbs-Churchley-age 2 weeks, as well as nieces, nephews and many aunts, uncles and cousins.

A celebration of Chriss life will take place on 21, 11:30am at Brownsville Elementary School Gymnasium. Please bring great memories to share and help us celebrate an amazing man.

In lieu of flowers, the family asks that donations please be made to Hospice of Kitsap .
