Spokane Man’s Body Removed From Slide

Mon., May 22, 1995

From Staff And Wire Reports

Work crews recovered the body of a Spokane man from the bottom of a rock slide at Wenatchee on Sunday evening.

Crews had worked for 2 1/2 days to find Tim Grace, one of two people killed in the slide that dumped tons of material on a gravel pit and the southbound lanes of U.S. Highway 97A near the Columbia River early Friday.

The body of 5-year-old Tory Davis had been pulled from a crumpled school bus on Saturday.

Grace, 27, was daytime foreman for Lloyd Logging of Twisp, Wash., a subcontractor at the gravel pit owned by Morrill Asphalt of Wenatchee.

Grace’s body was pulled out of the debris at 7:30 p.m. Sunday. It was taken by ambulance to Central Washington Hospital.
