Family raise questions about USCG response in drowning
The family of a 38-year-old Lummi Nation member who died after the commercial fishing vessel he was on sank off Point Roberts is questioning the U.S. Coast Guard’s delayed response.
Kevin Charles Finkbonner, 38, was aboard the 25-foot skiff with his brother, Brad, when it began taking on water just before 4 p.m. on August 11 south of the Point.
Steve Strohmaier, a public affairs specialist at the U.S. Coast Guard, said one of the brothers called his wife, who called 911. The U.S. Coast Guard received the information from 911 dispatch at 3:52 p.m.
The U.S. Coast Guard called the Canadian Coast Guard, which deployed a hovercraft from Richmond, and issued an urgent marine information broadcast requesting assistance from any nearby boaters. The U.S. Coast Guard sent personnel from Bellingham and its Port Angeles air station. Weather was reported to be twofoot seas and 15-knot winds.
A Canadian search and rescue vessel was the first to arrive at 4:18 p.m., Strohmaier said. At 4:38 p.m., a good Samaritan found the brother, who was wearing a life jacket. Several minutes later, the good Samaritan located Finkbonner unconscious, who was not wearing a life jacket, Strohmaier said. The Canadian Coast Guard recovered Finkbonner and attempted to revive him.
Strohmaier declined to say when the U.S. Coast Guard arrived on scene, but said the Canadian Coast Guard transferred Finkbonner to a U.S. Coast Guard boat after attempting to save his life. EMS declared Finkbonner deceased at Blaine Harbor.
Whatcom County Medical Examiner Dr. Aldo Fusaro confirmed in an email that Finkbonner died from drowning.
Finkbonner’s family credited the Canadian Coast Guard for attempting to save his life in a statement that Lummi Nation Chairman Anthony Hillaire read via Lummi Communications on August 14.

Final results for the August 5 primary election show clear winners headed to the November general election and one upset at county council.
The election is a top-two primary, meaning the two candidates with the most votes advance to the November 4 general election, regardless of party affiliation. Races that did not have more than two candidates were not on August ballots and will move automatically to the November election.
About 43,640 ballots were counted across Whatcom County by August 18, constituting 31.5 percent of currently registered voters.
Point Roberts Hospital District
In the race for Point Roberts Public Hospital Commissioner Position 2, Allison Calder placed first with 105 votes (22.9%), followed by Alyssa Clark with 104 votes (22.7%), Alison Strombom with 98 votes (21.4%), Jen Olson Kurcz with 89 votes (19.4%), and Solomon Loop with 58 votes (12.7%). There were three write-in votes for a total vote count of 457 votes.
Whatcom County Council
The Whatcom County Council District 2 race, which represents north Bellingham, saw Elizabeth Boyle come out ahead with 54.2 percent (5,475 votes). Maya Morales

was second ahead of Mike Cullum with 2,449 votes (24.2%) compared to Cullum’s 2,126 votes (21.1%).
The race for Whatcom County Council District 3, representing east county, saw newcomers Jessica Rienstra and Kyle Christensen win over incumbent Tyler Byrd. Rienstra received 5,569 votes (49.6%), while Christensen followed with 2,555 votes (22.7%) with Byrd trailing with 20.5 percent (2,299 votes). Another contestant, Daniel Probst, received 6.8 percent (768 votes). There were 35 writein votes.
Whatcom County Library System levy Proposition 2025-02, a ballot measure
to restore the Whatcom County Library System (WCLS) property tax to $0.42 per $1,000 of assessed home value, passed with 56.7 percent of returned ballots, or 18,753 voters, approving the levy lid lift.
This will be the first property tax rate increase from the library district since 2009. The library system levy rate had dropped to $0.26 as assessed home values rose and state law limiting a one percent annual increase on levy collection.
For an owner of a house valued at $600,000, the increase will cost an additional $8 per month, or $96 annually, to their property tax payment, according to WCLS.
Results were certified August 19.

Letter to the editor
The Editor:
I am Canadian and have been visiting Point Roberts for over 40 years. Now, I own a cabin here. Blackberries have always been in abundance all over the point.
On Friday, August 15 I was picking blackberries on the side of the road across from the marina. A man in a SUV with Washington plates stopped and rolled down his window.
When I approached him he informed me I was trespassing on private property and had to leave immediately. I apologized and said I didn’t realize. There were no signs saying Private Property/No Trespassing. The man was very confrontational in his manner of speaking.
As I turned to pick up my bowl with the berries and leave, he told me I had to dump the berries out because they were not mine. When I did not comply, he threatened to call the sheriff and have me arrested. I got into my car with my berries and left.
Really? You are going to report me for two handfuls of blackberries? With everything going on in the world today and with tensions being at a high between Canada and the U.S., show a little kindness towards your neighbors and save your anger for more important issues.

State audit dept. slaps Port’s hand
A 2024 state audit issued in July found the Port of Bellingham had failed to follow procurement procedures in its handling of a federal program, a failure the auditor described as material, the most severe category of internal control deficiency in federal auditing.
“We consider this deficiency in internal controls to be a material weakness that led to material noncompliance,” the report from the Office of the Washington State Auditor stated.The state auditor gave the port’s financial statements a clean bill of health otherwise.
Only one federal program was examined as a major program in this audit – the Port Infrastructure Development Program. The audit specifically examined a federal award from the U.S. Department of Transporta-
tion that involved more than $4.2 million in federal spending during fiscal year 2024. The port paid $906,006, or about 21 percent of the total federal funds spent in this program, to California-based engineering firm Moffat & Nichol, without following proper competitive procurement procedures.
Following a competitive call for bids, the port had received only two proposals for architectural and engineering services. It incorrectly concluded that receiving only two bids meant competition was inadequate and awarded the contract to Moffat & Nichol without evaluating or scoring either bid submission. While the port received a clean opinion on its financial statements and compliance with the major federal program overall, the finding was significant enough to be reported as

a material weakness in internal controls over major programs. It’s required to be disclosed under federal regulations and included in the audit as a federal award finding.
The finding means the port cannot demonstrate it complied with its own procurement policy, met federal procurement regulations or selected the most qualified firm as required. In response, the port has

ents, Ronnie and Alena, voiced concern that their son’s life could have been saved had first responders arrived quicker.
“As we mourn, we cannot stay silent on the circumstances surrounding his passing. It is deeply troubling that when tragedy struck, quick and effective response was not there,” the Finkbonners’ statement read. “No family should have to endure the pain of wondering whether faster help would have changed the outcome, nor the added trauma of being treated without compassion and respect.”
The Finkbonners did not elaborate on the treatment they received.
The U.S. Coast Guard did everything in its power to respond as quickly as possible, Strohmaier said. Strohmaier added the vessel did not have a VHF radio, which is recommended and would have allowed the brothers to call the U.S. Coast Guard directly.
“The U.S. Coast Guard is engaging with Lummi Tribal leadership to discuss their concerns with the U.S. Coast Guard’s response,” Strohmaier said.
“He was someone who would do anything for anyone without hesitation,” Finkbonner’s obituary reads. “He made life better for the people around him just by being himself.”

The state auditor will follow up during its next annual audit to ensure the new procedure is being followed.

Former health head files tort claim
Former Whatcom County Health and Community Services Director Erika Lautenbach has filed a tort claim against the county seeking $1.5 million in damages, alleging sex discrimination, hostile work environment, and retaliation by county executive Satpal Sidhu.
Lautenbach was terminated on March 19, 2025, after serving nearly five years as director of the county’s third-largest department. She was appointed to the position in March 2020 at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic and oversaw significant expansion of services, including the Response Systems Division, Healthy Children’s Fund, and severe weather shelters.
The tort claim, filed by Carney Badley Spellman law firm, details a pattern of alleged discriminatory behavior by Sidhu beginning with her 2020 interview. According to the claim, when Lautenbach mentioned she was remodeling her kitchen, Sidhu responded, “Ah, the kitchen, a woman’s palace,” leaving both Lautenbach and deputy executive Tyler Schroeder uncomfortable.
The claim alleges that tensions escalated in early 2025 when Lautenbach participated in a controversial panel hearing regarding former public works director Dr. Jon Hutchings, who faced sexual harassment allegations. As the only woman on the panel, Lautenbach felt pressured to vote that Hutchings had not committed sexual harassment, despite her concerns about the process.
Following her participation in a subsequent council investigation into the Hutchings matter, the claim alleges Sidhu became increasingly hostile toward Lautenbach. The document details multiple confrontations, including a January 17 meeting at a coffee shop where witnesses allegedly observed Sidhu behaving aggressively and forcing Lautenbach to sit beside him rather than across the table.
“This interaction was deeply embarrassing and humiliating to Ms. Lautenbach, as she saw several people she knew there, who likely witnessed Mr. Sidhu’s behavior,” the tort claim states.
The claim also alleges that Sidhu made an inappropriate request for VIP treatment for his wife at the emergency department and that Lautenbach reported hostile work environment concerns to multiple officials, including councilmember Jon Scanlon, Sheriff Donnell Tanksley, and HR director Melissa Keeley.
Lautenbach took FMLA leave from February 10-21, 2025, for mental health issues related to the alleged hostile work environment. She was placed on administra-
tive leave March 5 and given less than 24 hours to consider a separation agreement before the deadline was extended to March 10. Despite her legal right to 21 days to consider the agreement as an employee over 40, she was terminated March 19.
The county cited “a failure to provide accurate and complete budget information” and other performance concerns as reasons for her termination, allegations Lautenbach disputes.
Lautenbach has since been appointed chief administrative officer at the state Department of Children, Youth and Families, where she will oversee the 6,000-person organization’s administrative functions at a salary of $194,772.
In a statement by county spokesperson Jed Holmes provided to the All Point Bulletin, he said, “The executive’s office stands by its decision to fire Lautenbach and strongly denies all allegations that Ms. Lautenbach was illegally dismissed.”
“The county will vigorously defend against Ms. Lautenbach’s claims related to her termination, and we look forward to the truth coming to light through the appropriate legal channels,” Holmes told the newspaper.

Spiritual or religious? Possibly both/and rather than either/or...
Father Thomas Merton said, “Nothing in the Gospels suggests that Jesus was interested in creating a religion. He was offering everyone a chance for a peaceful and fulfilling life by adopting a different set of values. The crux, of course, is a shift from judgment, competition, and aggression to the rule of an open heart. The gospels represent a movement out of narcissism and paranoia to a more mature, self-possessed life of deep community.
Father Richard Rohr writes: “Jesus came to teach us the way of wisdom by bringing us a message that offers to liberate us from both the lies of the world and the lies lodged within ourselves. The wisdom of the gospel created an alternative consciousness, solid ground on which we can really stand, free from every social order and every ideology. The preaching of the gospel pulls the rug out from under us, and we have to put our life on a new footing.”

PRCAC mulls road projects
The Point Roberts Community Advisory Committee reviewed potential uses for its Transportation Benefit District fund at its August 21 meeting. The fund, generated by a penny per gallon gas tax, has accumulated $1.4 million for transportation projects including road improvements, bike lanes, pedestrian facilities and public transit.
Committee members discussed sidewalks, road maintenance and possible roundabouts. However, roundabouts may be impractical given space constraints for large trucks and the likely need for land acquisition.
Other proposals included a sidewalk near Lighthouse Park and covering the ditch along Benson Road’s north side. The Benson Road project addresses safety concerns since the main emergency vehicle route to the fire hall has little shoulder space between the road and ditch.
Committee chair Allison Calder stressed the need for community input. “It’s something everyone might want to start thinking more about, and consider that $1.4 million isn’t a lot of money,” she said.
The committee encourages residents to submit ideas for transportation improvements funded through the district.

Borderite Report THE
Brought To You By The Blaine School District
Dear Point Roberts students, families and citizens,
Welcome to the 2025-2026 school year! We are incredibly excited to welcome all of you back to school this year. This school year is going to be exciting as we look to bring the student experience at Point Roberts Primary School to the forefront of our efforts. At Point Roberts Primary and in the Blaine School District every student is important and it will be our commitment to work together with each of you to make a difference for our students. We are grateful and take very seriously that each of you are sending the most important people in the world to be in our care.
I would like to introduce to you two new staff members that will help serve the students and families at Point Roberts Primary. First, Kyle Daugherty will serve as our K-2 teacher. After our previous teacher accepted a position in another school district, Mr. Daugherty was excited about the opportunity to teach in Point Roberts. The administrator who will be principal is Linsey Pike, who is a lifelong Blaine resident and primary school teacher and administrator. We plan to visit Point Roberts Primary School each month to work with staff, students and families.
On Monday September 22, 2025 we will be holding a school board meeting up at Point Roberts Primary. The meeting will start at 7 p.m. There is a time for public comment which is a time for you to make a statement, ask questions or share information that you think the school board and superintendent should know. We will also have a time for student recognition for those students that attend Point Roberts Primary. It will be a great evening and I hope that you are able to make it.
We are also starting a new Home Connection program at Point Roberts Primary. This program is part of the Alternative Learning Experience programs options that are available in the state of Washington. The Point Roberts Home Connections program has a room at Point Roberts Primary School that they will use. If you are interested in learning about Home Connections program or would like to enroll your child, check out the following links: New Student Enrollment found at blainesd.org/page/new-student-online-enrollment and Blaine Home Connection (Home Base Instruction) found at blainesd.org/o/homeconnection
If have a desire to volunteer in our schools please don’t hesitate to sign up. Citizens and parents who volunteer play an important role in our schools and district that enhances the ability of staff to do things that they otherwise could not without this assistance. There are a number of different ways to be involved in our schools that include helping in a classroom, assisting with school events, going on a fieldtrip with your son/daughter or participating on various committees.
If you have any questions, please reach out to me at dchaplik@blainesd.org or 360-332-5881.
Sincerely,
Dan Chaplik Interim Superintendent Blaine School District
I am so excited to welcome you to a new school year as the new principal of Point Roberts Primary! After teaching in the Blaine School District for the past 13 years in early childhood grades, I am honored to now serve this special community in this role.
This year, we are also excited to welcome Mr. Daugherty to our staff. He brings many years of elementary teaching experience and is eager to begin this new adventure at Point Roberts. While we are a small team, we are deeply dedicated to creating a school where every child feels safe, supported, and a true sense of belonging. We will work tirelessly to ensure each child receives the education they deserve, while also learning more about the unique and wonderful Point Roberts community.
Thank you for the privilege of allowing us to teach your children—this is an honor we hold with the utmost care and joy. I look forward to partnering with you as we build a positive, connected school community together.
Please stay tuned to ParentSquare for important updates, news, and opportunities to get involved throughout the year.
Here’s to a wonderful start to the school year!
Warmly, Linsey Pike Principal, Point Roberts Primary School
in the Garden
B y V ictoria S M ith
September so soon? My garden has grown by leaps and bounds this year, and my little flower farm has tripled in size. I’m picking hundreds of flowers each week, filling vases and jars, starting next year’s seeds, and teaching flower arranging classes.
I recently read that the joy of gardening isn’t in getting it right, it’s in getting gloriously lost.
Gardeners dream about the future, making mental lists of what to add, what to change, and how to make our gardens better, whatever better may mean to us. The work is hard, but the reward is beauty that we can share with others.
Gardeners are generous with their time and knowledge. We want everyone to feel the magic we feel and to know the satisfaction of growing and giving, and that begins with plants. You can grow plants from seeds, buy baby plants at the nursery, order plants online, and trade plants with neighbors. You can also make plants from the ones you – or another gardener – already own.
Here are two ways to get more plants at little to no cost. The first is by taking stem cuttings from a plant, rooting them in soil or water, and then transplanting them into a pot or into the garden. This can be done with a wide variety of both annual plants and perennials, including flowers, shrubs, vines, houseplants, and succulents. The second way is by dividing a single plant into two or more plants. You can find videos of how to do this on YouTube and other websites.
Starting plants from cuttings
This method works for perennials as well as annuals like coleus, geraniums, and other frost-tender plants. I suggest practicing with an easy to root plant, such as lavender, mint, rosemary, or sage. You’ll need clean small pots (4-6 inches tall) with drainage holes, clean sharp garden shears or scissors, potting soil, and powdered rooting hormone (optional but recommended).

2. Cut a 3-6 inch section of the upper stem from a healthy plant, right below a leaf node. Place the stem in a glass of water as soon as you cut it, to keep it hydrated.
3. Remove all but the upper two sets of leaves. Dip the lower stem into water, then into rooting hormone, and insert it into the soil.
4. Gently press the soil around the stem and add water. Place pot in a bright area away from direct sunlight. Keep soil damp until roots begin to grow out of bottom of pot, approximately two to six weeks.
5. When the plant has a good root system (tip it out of the pot to check), move the plant to a larger pot or place it directly into your garden.
A more advanced method of propagation by cuttings is used for shrubs, roses, and other woodier perennials, including hydrangeas, camellias, rhododendrons, fruiting shrubs like blueberries, and vining plants including clematis, raspberries and grapes. Information can be found on the internet about specific plants and species. Starting plants by division
Many clump-forming perennial plants can be divided in autumn (mid-September through October) to create additional plants. This works well for daylilies, coneflowers, daisies, Siberian iris, phlox, and others. You’ll want to divide and replant them no later than six weeks before your first frost date, so they can settle in and develop a good root system to survive the winter.
1. Before dividing your plants, prepare the space you will be planting them: either a new hole in the garden or a new pot filled with potting soil. If digging a new hole, it should be several inches wider and deeper than the root ball of the plant.
2. Using a shovel or garden fork, carefully dig the old plant and remove from the soil. Carefully divide the roots or corms/ tubers with your hands, with a shovel, or with a garden knife. Place the division into the new hole and backfill with the same soil it is planted in. Return the original plant to its hole. Water well and gently tamp down the soil.
Here are a few more perennials that can be propagated by division: agapanthus, anemone, aster, delphinium, echinacea, euphorbia, geranium, helianthus, hosta, iris, phlox, rudbeckia, salvia, and sedum. If you don’t have plants of your own to propagate, ask your friends and neighbors if they have any to share. Or reach out to the garden club, post a “looking for” ad on NextDoor or Facebook, and visit the community garden to find out more about who’s gardening in your neighborhood. Gardeners are friendly people and, as the saying goes, a stranger is just a friend you haven’t met yet. I’m available to answer your gardening questions during Senior Lunch at the community center on Wednesdays and Fridays, from 12 - 1 p.m.
When the Annie Moggin sank at Point Roberts marina’s guest dock in February 2024, it marked the end of an 81-year maritime legacy. For former owners Chris and Candice Millison, news of the loss brought both happy memories and deep sadness.
The 30-foot troller was built in 1943 by Einar Michaelson in a small shop in South Bend, Washington. Powered by a 68-horsepower Detroit 3-71 diesel with a dry stack exhaust, she was built to last. And she did, for eight decades.
Hans Ekstrom became the boat’s defining owner, trolling her from California to Alaska for commercial fishing before using her for sport fishing in his later years. Ekstrom’s own story was one of maritime adventure: born on the Swedish island of Faro, he left home at 15 to work merchant ships and see the world. After a decade at sea, he returned to marry Majken Petersson in 1952. The couple immigrated to the United States in 1957 with their son Mikael, eventually settling in Anacortes in 1967 with two more children, Gunilla and Torkel, to fish full-time.
The Millisons purchased the Annie Moggin from Ekstrom in the 1990s and poured countless hours into her restoration. “We cruised her for some years and hardly used a drop of fuel with that big three-cylinder diesel,” Chris Millison recalled. “She brought out the cameras and was featured in local travel brochures.”
The boat held special meaning beyond her practical value. Millison had named her after his mother, Annie Modlin which she pronounced “moggin” as a child. Modlin is also Millson’s middle name. “My wife made the decision to buy it after smelling her through a porthole,” he remembered. “Ahh, that nice ol’ diesel stove in the cabin kept us warm all year.”
For the Millisons, the Annie Moggin represented something deeper than just a vessel. Both Chris and Candice had grown up boating on the Columbia River to the same beach – she on a converted Navy landing craft full of girls, he in a 9-foot Norwegian pram with a 3-horsepower Evinrude. “I wasn’t interested in girls then,” he joked. “You know how a young couple sets up housekeeping and gets a puppy? Well, we got a 1947 Chris-Craft Express Cruiser.” Millison remains philosophical about wooden boats despite the loss. “Most people run from wooden boats because of the maintenance over a composite, but for me, painting is less frequent than waxing unless you’re inundated with gorgeous varnish. An old fishboat is tough, warm, and quiet.”
The Annie Moggin had experienced engine trouble before being towed into Point Roberts harbor, where she ultimately sank at the guest dock. While others helped maintain her over the years, Millison credits Hans Ekstrom and his own family’s untold hours of cleaning, sanding, and painting for keeping her alive so long.
“My wife and I are heartbroken; we’d still have her if it wasn’t for moorage costs,” Millison said. “There might be enough there to restore, but at a ridiculous cost. It’s the spiritual connection one has with a wood boat that makes it feel like losing a family member.”
The Annie Moggin’s sinking at Point Roberts was temporary; she was raised and now sits on the hard with her future uncertain. Like many old wooden boats, she’s stuck between being historically significant and perhaps expensive to restore.
The 81-year-old troller holds decades of Pacific Northwest maritime history, from Swedish immigrant fishermen to devoted wooden boat owners, but her future is cloudy.

Happenings at the senior center
At our June board of directors meeting, we accepted the resignation of our longtime treasurer Curt Bush. After many years of dedicated service, Curt has passed the reins on to PRSA volunteer Bill Zidel, who we know will be an asset to the board. Many thanks to Curt for being such a wonderful and dedicated volunteer, and a warm welcome to Bill.
During Senior Lunch on Wednesday June 11, we welcomed Cleo, an R.N. and volunteer from the Whatcom Council on Aging, who provided blood pressure checks to attendees of all ages. This is in addition to our wonderful firefighter volunteers who pop by when they can to check on our seniors. Many thanks to all, your visits are greatly appreciated.
Our Seniors and More lunches are served in the dining room at the community center on Wednesdays and Fridays, at 11:45 a.m. On September 12 we will have another lovely Picnic in the Park behind the community center!

obituaries
Helen Rae Andrews
November 7, 1948 to July 28, 2025
Born in Karoomda, Australia on November 7, 1948 completed nursing school in the early ’60s and proceeded to work at various clinics and hospitals throughout Australia.
On two occasions she took nursing positions in Saudi Arabia. The first occasion she worked with a heart surgeon in Khamis Mushait in South Saudi Arabia. On the second occasion she served at the Saudi royal hospital (King Faisal) in Riyadh Saudi Arabia as the supervisor of the neonatal intensive care unit in the early nineties.
While there, she met her future husband Nick Andrews at an American embassy party. After a brief courtship that included trips to Switzerland, Portugal, Mallorca and Spain (Nick’s home base and owner of a mountain side restaurant/bar), they took an around the world plane trip that included Bahrain, Amsterdam, San Francisco, Fisherman’s wharf, Hawaii (Maui) attended a friend’s wedding and took an around the island boat tour. From there they traveled to Tokyo, Bangkok, Dubai and back to Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
In January 1998, Helen and Nick got married in the Christian church of Bahrain.
After a few more years working in Saudi Arabia they left for Spain before returning to the U.S.
They first went to San Diego California to visit Nick’s relatives and purchase a 43’ sailboat. They sailed their boat along the California coast and Catalina islands and the Mexican coast. They then relocated to Texas and moored their sailboat in Galveston, Texas.
Helen and Nick then sailed across the
Gulf of Mexico/America to Florida’s Key West, Fort Lauderdale, West Palm Beach and other Florida locations. Helen got her permanent residence card and worked in Florida before sailing back to Texas. Over the next 17 years the couple lived aboard their sailboat and Helen’s power boat. She was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease in the mid 2000s. She eventually needed a DBS (Deep Brain Stimulation) along with other medication. She and husband Nick moved to the Pacific Northwest, Point Roberts in Washington state in 2022 where they resided in their RV next to Nick’s daughter April and sonin-law James.
Helen passed peaceably in the Hospice House in Bellingham, Washington on the afternoon of July 28, 2025.
Christine Ann (Lesow) Kojak
November 18, 1950 - May 17, 2025
Christine Ann Kojak, age 75, passed away on May 17, 2025 in Phoenix, Arizona.
Born on November 18, 1950 in Indianapolis and educated at Indiana University, Christine was known for her kind nature, her love for all animals and a loyalty that made her a cherished, although sometimes distant friend.
Her life was defined by a gentle spirit and a firm dedication to causes she cared about, particularly those relating to animals and the natural environment.
There will be no formal services held for Christine.
Those wishing to honor her memory may consider contributions to the Whatcom Humane Society, a reflection of her compassionate spirit and her surviving brother, John, who also served on the Board of Directors of the Humane Society in the 1990s.
Christine’s ashes will be interred at the family gravesite in Point Roberts.
