Death and Memorial Notice

Peninsula Daily News (Port Angeles, WA) - Sunday, March 6, 2011

January 21, 1927

February 27, 2011

Louise was born in Battle Mountain, Nevada, on January 21, 1927, and died peacefully at home in Clallam Bay, surrounded by family, on February 27, 2011. She was the daughter of Basque immigrants and proud of her cultural heritage, and had lifelong empathy and compassion for immigrants and newcomers.

Her early life was spent sheep and cattle ranching in rural Nevada; it was there that she met her husband, Ken. They continued ranching until moving to Clallam Bay in 1966, where she worked seasonally as a waitress, then a bookkeeper.

She was a member of St. Thomas Catholic Church and volunteered on the Election Board and as an EMT.

Eventually they purchased farm and timberland and were able to enjoy those endeavors for many years, supplying their family and friends with beef and wood. Together they worked diligently to practice conscientious land management. Under the Washington State Conservation Program, they were awarded Wildlife Habitat Farm of the year in 2003 and 2006.

Louise's passion for cattle remained until death and brought her many years of contentment. She was a devoted wife, mother, and proud grandmother.

She was preceded in death by her parents, Prudencio and Paula Mendive; brothers, John, Joe, Prudencio Jr., Raymond and Celestino.

She is survived by her husband of 62 years, Ken Sadilek; sister Pauline Beitia; daughters and spouses Laurel (Larry) Burtness, Linda (Russ) Mellon, Loretta (Juan) Bascaran; foster children Lita (Ed) Piffero and Jim (Danielle) Yroz; grandchildren Tamara, Corby (Trang), Ben (Jessica), Justin, Andy, and Alex; and great-grandchildren Kaleo, Kali, and Layla.

Perhaps her greatest life achievement was the demonstration to her family of the value of faith for guidance and comfort in the journey of life. She burned a lot of candles praying for all of us.

A memorial service is planned at St. Thomas Catholic Church in Clallam Bay on March 12, 2011, with Rosary to be said at 11:30 a.m., followed by Mass, then a Celebration of Life gathering at the Lions Club, starting at approximately 1:30 p.m.

In lieu of flowers, memorial donations are requested to Volunteer Hospice of Clallam County, P.O. Box 2014, Port Angeles, WA 98362.

A special thanks to Mike, Dawn, Nancy and Tone of Assured Hospice.
