Eudoro Estrada (b. 1933), who started his own reforestation company based in Hoquiam and Tacoma, Washington, was born in Mexico and became a naturalized citizen of the United States. He arrived in the United States in 1963 and worked in a variety of construction, gardening, and landscaping jobs in southern California before settling in Washington State in the early 1970s.
