The memorial...
Janet and Gordon Livengood were long-time residents of
Kirkland and later in Seattle's houseboat district. Janet Livengood
maintained an active interest in public affairs and participated in a
number of public, non-profit organizations supporting good government at
the local level.
Gordon Livengood served as city attorney for Bothell for a
number of years prior to the city adopting the city manager form of
government. He was a charter member of the Northshore Rotary Club and
was active in his law practice nearly 50 years. He also continued his
service club membership until the time of his death in 2001.
The Livengood estate, at Gordon's passing, bequeathed
$100,000 to the Northshore Scholarship Foundation. As a result, the
family has indicated an interest in providing more than one scholarship
annually as well as offering renewable scholarships through the
Foundation.
