Jolene Geiss

Jolene Maree Geiss, beloved mother, and grandmother, passed away on July 9, 2023, at the age of 66. Jolene was born in Hardin, Montana on Aug. 18, 1956, to Cecilia “Cee Cee” and Joseph Geiss. Jolene was raised in the Yakima Valley and Selah, Washington. She graduated from Selah High School in 1975. After graduation Jolene found her passion for photography and worked in the industry for many years, first at Ken Whitmire and Associates and later for Stephen K. Wolfe Photography. Jolene was also an avid University of Washington Husky fan, and you knew that by looking at her car or simply going into her home. She also loved to wear a lot of “bling bling” and naturally got that from her mother, Cee Cee.

Wheeled Phoenix project helps veterans re-enter society in U.S.

The visions I’ve had of forgotten veterans have haunted me for years ... the Wheeled Phoenix project, the concept I’ve devised, will buy old cars and restore them as resto-mods. The cars will be raffled off by a nonprofit, Veteran Phoenix, LLLP, and the donations received from ticket sales will help homeless veterans re-enter society. Wheeled Phoenix’, Inc. will also produce two reality shows; one that will feature the car’s rebuild, and the other will feature the rebuilding of a soldier’s life.
