We are deeply saddened to share the news of the passing of James "Jim" Corliss, the visionary founder of Landmark Ford in Tigard, since 1979.

Having had the opportunity to work with Jim over the years, we knew him as a man of great integrity and a true civic leader. He consistently preferred to avoid the spotlight, choosing instead to work quietly behind the scenes to make our community a better place.

We'll share an article that appeared in Tigard Life in 2023 below.

Our deepest condolences go out to the entire Corliss family and the team at Landmark Ford.

For those wishing to honor his life, a Celebration of Life will be held on Sunday, November 23rd, at Tigard High School from 11:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.

Early Washington County Special Election Results are IN!

Early unofficial results show both key Washington County ballot measures passing tonight:

Public Safety Levy (Measure 34-346): Appears to be PASSING with 57.39% of voters favoring the increased levy to fund essential services like jail operations, mental health crisis response, and additional staff for the Sheriff’s and District Attorney’s offices.

Library Services Levy (Measure 34-345): Also appears to be PASSING with 56.9% of voters supporting the increase, securing a renewed and increased levy to support the county’s libraries and cooperative library services.

As of 8:00 p.m., over 91,000 votes have been counted. Final official results are expected on December 1.

Based on what we’re hearing about polling on the Washington County Library and Public Safety Levies, both measures are expected to pass by safe margins. However, public comments on various social media sites, including Nextdoor, seem to be almost universally telling a very different story. We’d like to hear your opinions on whether voters will approve each levy:

Well, Tigard High School just celebrated homecoming, so we thought this was a good opportunity to share a Blast from the Past! This 2004 video shows PDXposed’s (now defunct) homecoming coverage — special thanks to local resident Julie Beck Joachims for the video. Julie was the production manager for PDXposed at the time. Julie’s daughter, Brittany, is the blonde in the lawn chair on one of the homecoming floats (wearing a lei), and Brittany’s son, Jaxon Lee ( #17), was just featured in the last issue of Tigard Life football article! Now that’s a great Tigard family!
