CLOUD 9; KENT, WATwo little reasonsJesse fights cancer5Jesse Prather, dart player andprevious employee here at Cloud 9 hadto quit his job after finding out he hadcancer in April 2010.After watching his Grandmaand Grandpa go through chemo andJesse Prather and his kids ask <strong>for</strong> your help in a tough situationradiation only to be sent home withpain pills to die, he looked at hisnewborn daughter and 6 year old sonand decided that he would not let thathappen to him. He chose to look <strong>for</strong>alternative ways to treat the cancer,GUESSWHO!?and found them.Jesse’s alternative methods <strong>for</strong>treating his cancer are all natural andextremely effective. He is currentlymaking great progress in the healingprocess, but not being able to work ishindering his abilityto keep up with thehigh cost of thesesupplements and organicfoods neededto properly nourishhis body as well astake care of his family.Cloud 9 wants tohelp Jesse and hisfamily in their timeof need. We are acceptingdonations atthe bar on Jesse's behalf.Any donation isgreatly appreciatedand will go directlyto help Jesse’s fightagainst cancer.“I have knownJesse <strong>for</strong> many years,” Ike says. “Hewould drive all the way from Tacomajust to shoot darts at the Cloud 9.After hiring him as a bartender, heproved himself to be a very loyal andrespectful employee and a friend whotruly cared.”Health issues and the loss ofloved ones are a real part of everyone'slife, but we can still help those weknow and care <strong>for</strong>.“We pray that Jesse is a winnerin his fight against cancer and I hopethat all our friends will help out anddonate so that Jesse’s two beautifullittle children can have a loving father<strong>for</strong> a very long time. God bless andstrengthen him. Thank you”, Ike.Join Cloud 9 <strong>for</strong> a memorial shoot on Saturday, November 20 and celebrate the life of Janis“Queen” Baker. <strong>The</strong> tournament will start at 2:00pm. <strong>The</strong>re’s a 64 team max, and they’llhave a 50/50 raffle, raising funds to assist the family during such a tough time.

FLIGHTS PUB; EVERETT, WANovice Cup goes head to headBy Joseph MathiasOn Saturday, October 16, FlightsPub in Everett would become a battlegroundbetween two classic rivals. <strong>The</strong>girls from Flights; Mary Richeson,Erin Arganti, Ann Counterman, andCaron Aitken defended their NoviceCup against Jimmy Jack’s best; TamiPayne, KristineCrawfo r d , P a mBrammer, andJoanna Ortman.It wasan all-femaleaffair, and aftereverybodygot warmedup and gottheir drinksin front ofthem, it wasgame on!J i m m yJacks startedoff strongwhen Pam hit a Low Ton in the gamesetting up Joanna <strong>for</strong> the out. In gametwo, it was Erin’s Low Ton that setup Caron <strong>for</strong> the out and tie up thematch at one game each. Pam tookout game three <strong>for</strong> Jimmy Jacks aftera good rally.Flights came whirring back whenErin and Mary each hit 5-Countsmaking it 2-2.Kristine made her presenceknown in game five with a coupleJanis BakerContinued from cover pageshe wanted?) And with all the thanksin the world to her - Willy and I arethe best of friends.I greatly admire her sense ofhumor, wit, outspokeness, confidenceand kindness. Once she decided youwere in her life there was no goingback - no holds barred, jumping inwith both feet, with reckless abandon.I hope I am able to open my heart likeshe did - even to half of the extent. Shecounseled me, watched me fall andwas always there to pick me back up.I will love and remember her always.In the words of Willy Walker, "As bisas her voice was, it was small in comparisonto the size of her heart."of 4-Counts, but Ann would answerback with her own 5-Count to win thegame, 3-2 Flights.Despite Jimmy Jack’s strongshooting over the next six games, itjust didn’t seem to be enough as Flightswent on to extend their lead 9-2.Although Jimmy Jacks wasn’td o n e y e t .P a m ’s H a tTrick to wingame 12 offereds omehope. But Annwould takeout game 13to make it 10-3. Tami andPam teamedup with onemore attemptt o s c r a t c ht h e i r w a yback into thisMary, Caron, Ann, and Erin defend the Novice Cupmatch, eachhitting a LowTon to make it 10-5.Too little, too late. Mary and herteam powered their way through game16 to take the game and the match,11-5. Kudos to Flights on another successfuldefense of their cup.CORRECTION: <strong>The</strong> <strong>Medallion</strong> reported thelast Novice Cup match incorrectly, statingthat Christina’s darts won the final game inthe match, when in fact it was Caron whocame through, not once, but twice to maintainthe Novice Cup at Flights.Dawn Moody:Girl, you were AMAZING!!!Janis was truly my best friend. Amazingonly begins to describe the personshe was to me. She was my go to, andknew every detail of my life betterthan I know myself. She knew whento be my friend and when I needed"couch time". I could always rely onher to keep it real, even when it wasn'twhat I wanted to hear. She loved me.<strong>The</strong> memories are endless. Weshared so many great times together.I am thankful <strong>for</strong> every moment. <strong>The</strong>simplest things turned into some ofthe best memories. Like one of manysleepovers we had... we slept in my bedin our matching frog nightgowns. Welaughed so hard that night.My time with her was cut short.We had a list a mile long of things wewanted to do. Wish she could havestayed longer.Never goodbye, I will see yawhen I get there. I love her just theway she was.Craig “Clean” Freeman:Janis was my 1st female friend inWashington 13 years ago. We livednext to each other <strong>for</strong> seven years, shewas my best girl friend.We all lost of a wonderful daughter,mother and friend. Janis DonahueBaker was an open book. She wasblunt, <strong>for</strong>ward and loud. And that'swhat we all loved about her.She also had a crazy side.

Her humor was so intoxicatingthat you had to laugh, if you didn't,then you were her next target.Janis also had a soft and generousside that not everyone saw. Shecared and loved her friends almostas much as she loved her sons, Randyand Kyle.If you ever needed anything, shewould help you out, if she couldn'tthen she knew someone that could.Janis was a social butterfly. She hatedDRAMA, but it always found her, eitheras a participant or a referee.In the last year, Janis mellowedout just a little, thanks to Jimmy. Hegave Janis something nobody couldand that was true love.We have thousands of memoriesand stories of Janis and everyone ofB Flight (2nd Place); Terry and Dukethem is precious. We will always havethat part of her in our hearts andminds. I loved Janis as if she weremy sister. I will miss her smartasscomments, our phone calls just to say"Hi", and our talks at home.Thanks to God <strong>for</strong> allowing usinto her life. She affected more peoplethan she knew, and even more as anorgan donator after her death.Janis made this world a betterplace with her charm and laughter.R.I.P. my friend, I love you.Jimmy Montgomery:It was quite interesting the nightI was reintroduced to Janis. I <strong>for</strong>gotwhat it was like playing a matchagainst her and she was being hertypical flirty self. By the end of thenight she had already invited herselfto stay in my trailer <strong>for</strong> a weekend ofcamping.As time went on, we would becomea couple and go out in publictogether. <strong>The</strong>re were times whensome would ask, “What is wrong withJanis,” and I would say, ”What do youmean?” <strong>The</strong>y would reply, “She’s awfullyquiet.” I would respond, “Well,she’s in a new training program, I’mtaming her.” She of course, would respondby saying, “That isn’t true, hejust thinks he is.”Janis was becoming content withlife and the thought of settling downwas becoming more appealing all thetime. She’ll always be remembered <strong>for</strong>the way she made you laugh and hercaring nature towards others when itcame down to their needs verses herown. We all love and miss her.
