The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) in Fremont County, Idaho paid tribute with a ceremony last Friday and dedicated a portal station to Joe Leffel, a BLM officer who died two months ago in a rafting accident in Alaska.
Leffel's family, friends, as well as co-workers attended the ceremony. Emily Leffel, his wife, and his family remembered how much the rafter loved life. Rafting was one thing that he really enjoyed doing during summer.
With the installation of his monument at St. Anthony sand dunes, part of Leffel will remain there forever.
