Fisheries biologist Hadley dies after long service in Montana
Wayne Hadley, 82, a veteran Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks fisheries biologist who retired in 2005, died after hospice care. His field work helped spark the Superfund cleanup of the upper Clark Fork River by tracing fish kills to historic mining and smelting pollution. Survivors include wife Kathy, sons Erik and Liam, and two grandchildren. His blunt wit and devotion to rivers like the Clark Fork and Georgetown Lake defined a career marked by fierce honesty and deep family ties.
