Notes: This mural is in memory of Ray Bentley, "Ray volunteered at the Kokish hatchery for many years, (I think from its inception) and was quick to include school groups in egg takes etc. I first went there with a class when I taught his granddaughter in grade 1. He continued to drive out there each day until age and health combined stopped him. He passed last year."
