One of the owners of the O'Neill Pine Company, Kylie Pine, was
(among her many endeavors) the creator and curator of the new Oregon

Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest fame. She is also a graduate
of Willamette University, and, just like her Dad in July of 2007,
was profiled in their alumni magazine, Scene.

Former O'Neill Pine Company board member Bryan Johnston passed away
suddenly and unexpectedly in his sleep. Bryan served OPC in
1999 and 2000, but he was only being kind to us. He had a
distinguished professional career, highlighted by being Willamette
University’s interim President, associate dean at Willamette's
College of Law, Dean of its Atkinson Graduate School of Management,
serving in the Oregon House, and serving as interim director of the
Oregon Department of Human Services.
We will miss him.
