The photographic journey of GILBERT W. ARIAS, a Seattle/Tacoma based Photojournalist..

In 2009, like so many of my newspaper colleagues I found myself unemployed after the 146-yr-old newspaper I worked at closed its doors and moved to a web only edition. Some 12-years later I find I’m still mourning the loss of another great American industry, the daily newspaper.

Fallen Officers Memorial

Today on the one-year anniversary of the murders of four Lakewood police officers about 500 family members, local police officers and the general public braved the chilly temperatures to attend a memorial service at the site of the new Fallen Officers Memorial monument.
Located at the Lakewood WA police station the new monument honors the officers Sergeant Mark Renninger, Officers Ronnie Owens, Tina Griswold, and Greg Richards who were killed in the line of duty on November 29, 2010.
