Memorial for “Dewey” Dupont expected to draw large crowd


A celebration of life for longtime Harbor resident Dave “Dewey” Dupont will be held at 1:30 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 3, at the Hoquiam Elks Lodge. He died Dec. 16 from injuries suffered in a logging accident that occurred near Belfair.


Dupont has been involved with Loggers Playday since 1980 and was selected as chairman in 2011. He worked for T.J. Spradlin from 1981 to 1994 and started his own business, Double D Logging, in 1995.


According to Tim Spradlin, “Everyone on the Harbor knows Dewey. The service Saturday will be huge. We’re expecting over 1,000 people. They’re even setting up a tent at the Hoquiam Elks to accommodate all the people.”
