<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Yesterday evening I talked to Jim Crabbe’s wife, Donna. Jim had a heart attack over the weekend and passed away yesterday. This is sudden and a shock for his family and for all of us.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Jim was a long time, well respected colleague and friend here at the State Board as well as the college system and will be missed by many. Jim was instrumental in putting workforce education on the map for the college system and positioning
our colleges as the state’s primary workforce education provider. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Our HR office is working with the Washington State Employee Assistance Program to send a representative to our office to coach us on how to face the difficult feelings we might be experiencing. This is not group therapy, but rather a resiliency
group. Participation is completely voluntary, confidential and offers thoughts to foster ongoing resilience. Our HR office will send us the date, time and location of the group meeting. For those that prefer a one-on-one meeting, you are encouraged to contact
an EAP representative at (360) 407-9490.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We will be notifying folks in the system today. Jim and Donna’s families are at their home together. I will let you know about the memorial service once they get that sorted out.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Take care, Jan<o:p></o:p></p>
