Man pleads not guilty to shooting deaths BY STEVE HUNTER shunter@kentreporter.com
Leland D. Russell Jr. enters a not guilty plea to two counts of first-degree murder on Monday in Kent in connection with the Aug. 20 shooting deaths of two Shell station employees. Defense attorney Deborah Wilson is on the right. STEVE HUNTER, Kent Reporter
Tony Deniston expected a much larger man when Leland Dean Russell Jr. entered a Kent courtroom on Monday to enter a not guilty plea to two counts of first-degree murder in connection with the Aug. 20 shooting deaths of two Shell service station employees.
“I was expecting a real big guy, but the guy just kind of blew me away,” said Deniston, the father of victim Carlos Gonzalez, told reporters after the arraignment at the Maleng Regional Justice Center. Deniston even called Russell “a little punk” when he first saw the 5-foot-9, 145-pound man
accused of shooting to death Gonzalez, 26, and David Christianson, 52. “That’s what I thought,” said Deniston, who along with other family members wore a bright orange shirt with a photo of Gonzales to the courtroom, about his description of Russell. [ more SHOOTING page 4 ]

GOING GOALWARD The 7-U Lions’ Mason Morey dribbles the ball up the field with a pack of Wildcats in pursuit during the season-opening Youth Soccer Jamboree at the refurbished Wilson Playfields last
Saturday. The city of Kent dedicated the new multi-use turf fields at Wilson Playfields during an official reopening ceremony. The city funded the $1.8 million turf replacement project using $500,000 from the general fund, $800,000 from the real estate excise tax and the remainder from delaying other park improvement projects identified in the capital improvement fund.

A Kent City Council committee agreed with the city's Land Use and Planning Board to ban recreational marijuana businesses. The council's Economic and Community Development Committee voted 2-1 on Monday to agree with the land use board's recommendation in June to not allow marijuana retail, production or processing facilities in Kent. Council members Jim
Berrios and Bill Boyce voted in favor of the ban. Dennis Higgins opposed it. The full, seven-member council is expected to consider the ban on Oct. 7 when it could pass an ordinance against recreational marijuana businesses operating in the city. Kent currently has a moratorium against the businesses that expires in November. "I do need to respectfully disagree with the outcome of their process," Higgins said about the land use [ more BAN page 4 ]

The units range from 630 square feet for a one bedroom to 1,020 square feet for two bedrooms and two baths. Each unit has a small balcony while ground floor units have large patios. Parking is available for $65 per month in a garage below the units. About half of the people interested in living at The Platform live in Kent. Others are from Renton, Auburn and Bellevue, Lagat said. An 85-year-old man signed up for one of the apartments. The complex features 11 floor plans. Units on the south side feature views of Mount Rainier. Washer and dryers are in each unit. A common indoor space on the rooftop features a pool table and three TVs and a mountain view. A rooftop deck includes a TV, kitchen, grills and a fire pit and panoramic views of the Kent Valley. The

The previous developer ran out of money in 2007 after constructing a half-built parking garage as part of a proposed hotel, condominiums and retail space development. The garage loomed as an eyesore for four years before Goodman agreed to buy the property from the city, tear down the garage and build the first urban-style apartments in Kent.
What is Joint Tenancy? Joint tenancy is a form of ownership in which two or more persons own an asset jointly. Upon the death of one, the ownership of the asset is presumed to pass to the surviving joint owner(s) without probate. Sometimes joint tenancy is useful. But it may be inconsistent with the provisions of the Will and create uncertainty or conflict after death. In other cases, joint tenancy can disrupt a plan to minimize estate taxes.

City plans to keep speed traffic cameras at just two schools Kent Police and city officials have no immediate plans to expand the school traffic camera program to catch speeders beyond the two-school pilot project. The City Council’s Public Safety Committee plans to continue to monitor the program to see if it results in a reduced number of speeding drivers in the 20 mph school zones next to Neely-
O’Brien Elementary and Sunrise Elementary. Nearly 5,000 drivers were caught speeding in the two zones during the first six months of the program from January through June. The cameras are operating again this fall during the 30 minutes before school opens and 30 minutes after school closes. The city could receive as much as $869,000 in ticket revenue from the six months when all of the cases are eventually closed. So far,
the city has received $482,200 in revenue with 2,965 cases closed, according to Kent Municipal Court records. Another 2,003 cases remain open. Police Chief Ken Thomas said the revenue is being kept in a fund to pay for the program and to cover future costs when citations and revenue are expected to drop as more drivers slow down. Speeding infractions can drop as much as 60 to 80 percent after six months to one year, according to a Kent Police
study of other cities with cameras. Kent School District officials asked the city to install the traffic cameras. Superintendent Edward Lee Vargas told Thomas he supports expanding the program to more schools. “It’s a policy decision that needs to be made whether we expand the program and add schools,” Thomas said at a Tuesday Public Safety Committee meeting. “If we do, if you have additional cameras our insurance policy (money saved in a

to replace Brent Conley, who was placed on indefinite leave following accusations that he had solicited sex from a minor. “I was all on board about getting the job,” Priest said. Not wanting to rock the boat as a new teacher, he kept his head down when it came to contractual matters. But after working at the school for several months, he brought up the need for a leave replacement contract, which would establish him as a full-time teacher.
Kentridge responded that they couldn’t offer that contract because Conley was still in court, although Conley had handed in a resignation form in November. Priest was kept on board with the duties of a full-time teacher, but lacked the bonus time pay that full-time teachers make for their additional responsibilities such as conferences and staff meetings. It wasn’t until Priest was extended as a summer school teacher that he thought something was wrong, when the district cut his salary from around $30 per hour to $15.
“It was like Kentridge was expecting me to do all the teacher duties but having me paid as a substitute,” said Priest, who now teaches in the Clover Park School District in Lakewood. Leslie Bedke, a representative for the Kent Education Association, said that after a certain number of days the district is required to upgrade a substitute’s contract if that substitute is highly qualified in the material they are teaching. Priest had recently taken certifications to be highly qualified in social studies and English.

con Avenue South, according to charging papers filed Aug. 29. About 60 people, including children, were at the park when the shooting occurred. Seattle Police arrested Davenport on Aug. 19 after a witness came forward and identified him as the shooter through a photo montage. The witness said Davenport had attended the event and even posed for photographs before later firing shots. Davenport fled the park by catching a ride in a tan vehicle. Friends and family held the memorial for Pierre Lapoint, 16, who was shot and killed during a rash of teen shootings six years ago in Seattle. Lapoint was reportedly a member of the gang Down with the Crew. The killing of Lapoint remains unsolved. Davenport is a member of Down with the Crew, a violent criminal street gang, according to charging papers. He also has a violent history including second-degree robbery in 2005 and 2008, second-degree burglary in 2005 and 2012, third-degree assault in 2007 as well as convictions for theft.

He was a long– term sub, and we are not legally bound to offer teacher contacts after 30 days of service as a substitute,“ said district spokesman Chris Loftis in an email. “He was paid at the appropriate long-termsub rate.”

“Under the terms of the contract, he had to be given a teaching certificate. The law supports us. Certified substitute teachers, after 30 days, must be given a contract,” Bedke said. Because Priest was not a fulltime teacher, he also lost out on several grants, Bedke said. Among them were $5,000 for a Troops for Teacher’s grant, she said.

A 24-year-old Kent man and alleged gang member faces charges of first-and seconddegree assault for reportedly shooting and injuring two men Aug. 5 at a park during an annual South Seattle memorial for a teen shot to death in 2008. Durrea Keith Davenport was arraigned Thursday, Sept. 11 at the King County Courthouse in Seattle, according to the King County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office. Davenport remains in the county jail in Seattle with bail set at $750,000. He also is charged with unlawful possession of a firearm because of a previous King County conviction for second-degree robbery. Davenport allegedly fired as many as six to 10 shots at about 7 p.m. at a gathering at Benefit Park in the 9300 block of Bea-

Russell, 30, of Burien, remains in custody at the King County jail in Kent. Bail was originally set at $2 million, but prosecutors requested and the court ordered that bail be denied for the defendant because of the danger he poses to the community. If convicted as charged, Russell faces a sentence range of 50 to 63 years in prison. He is scheduled to return to court Sept. 22 when a trial date could be set or attorneys can ask for more time to prepare the case. “We’re here for my son and justice and that’s it,” Deniston said about attending the arraignment. “Re-
guy. I want him to spend the rest of his life in jail.” Prosecutors allege Russell and another man, who remains at large, arrived at the gas station at the corner of 64th Avenue South and South 212th Street during the morning commute on Aug. 20, started arguments with several customers and then were asked to leave by Christianson, the Shell store manager, and Gonzalez, a store clerk. After the friend of Russell got in a fight with one of the victims, Russell allegedly went to his black Cadillac to retrieve a gun and shot Christianson and Gonzalez multiple times at close range. Both men died at the scene.

Carlos Gonzalez was known for his adventurous spirit with a strong passion for photography and snowboarding, according to his obituary. His memorial service was Aug. 27 at Yahn & Son Funeral Home in Auburn. “Carlos meant the world to all of us and will truly be missed,” Tony Deniston said on his Facebook page. “And that he was taken away from us in such a horrific act of violence made it especially hard. But, having family and friends with such kind words and big hearts have made things
easier for us. We thank you for all of your prayers and support through these hard times.

the only council member to support recreational marijuana businesses being allowed to open in the city. Voters statewide passed I-502 in 2012 to allow such businesses to open. State Attorney General Bob Ferguson issued an opinion that local jurisdictions have the right to ban the businesses. “I think the policies of the prohibition of marijuana have pretty clearly
failed across the United States and that’s what we are looking to change here,” Higgins said. “I say that as someone who doesn’t like marijuana personally, but I can’t ignore the evidence that what we’ve been doing just isn’t working. When we say we’re not going to allow it seems like more head in the sand type of behavior.” Berrios said because neighboring cities (Renton, Covington, Des Moines) allow the businesses it makes it easier for Kent to ban them. “The impact on our citizens is minimized because we have cities that have jumped forward and said, ‘we’re going to do it,’ that are surrounding us,” Berrios said. “I’m not comfortable
with those unanswered questions being out there and not having a better understanding of what the potential impacts are.” Berrios wants the council to wait a year or two before jumping on the marijuana business bandwagon. “As we’ve gone through this process - and it’s been a long process - there’s a lot to consider,” Berrios said. “The will of the people in terms of the vote, I don’t know how many Kent people voted for it. But when we look at all of this, there is still a lot of unanswered questions. There is the issues of consideration of potential impacts - the odor, safety, crime and impacts of surrounding land use issues. As this body looks at what we are up against, if it chooses to disallow it, we could come back later and allow.” City staff recommended to the land use board and council that it could allow the marijuana businesses in certain parts of Kent through zoning. The first retail stores in the state opened in July. Boyce agreed with Berrios that it’s best for Kent to keep waiting before allowing marijuana stores and facilities.

Kent Police seek more minority hires to combat race gap Kent demographics
shunter@kentreporter.com
The Kent Police Department has the largest percentage-point differences of white officers to white residents in the state with a 39 percent difference, according to a recent New York Times story. Kent isn’t alone. The percentage of whites on the force is more than 30 percentage points higher than in the communities they serve in hundreds of police departments across the nation, according to The Bureau of Justice Statistics report quoted by the paper under the headline of The Race Gap in America’s Police Departments. The survey sampled more than 100 police agencies in 15 metropolitan areas. “I hate to be the top one in the region,� Kent Police Chief Ken Thomas said in response to the story. “That’s something you don’t want to be number one in.� But Thomas, who is white and took over as police chief in 2011, said he has worked hard and continues to work to increase the number of minorities hired by the Kent Police. “We are making diversifying the police department a high priority and we continue to make that transition,� Thomas said. “But numbers are what numbers are. We need to do better and we are working to do better.� Thomas disputes the New York Times numbers that are from a 2007 survey when Kent had a 92,000 population and 128 officers. The city now has more than 120,000 residents and 138 officers. Kent has a 55 percent white population, accord-

ing to the 2010 U.S. Census American Community Survey. The leading minority populations include 16 percent Hispanic/Latino, 15 percent Asian and 11 percent African American. The police force has 85 percent white officers as of Aug. 25, according to numbers provided by the Kent Police. That makes the percentage-point differences of white officers to white residents in Kent at 30 percent. “It’s a process,� Thomas said of increasing minority hires. “It takes time. Nobody likes to hear that.� City Councilwoman Brenda Fincher, who is black, agreed with Thomas that Kent continues to take positive steps by hiring more minorities. “I’ve seen progress moving in the right way,� said Fincher, who started to monitor police hires as a private citizen in the 1990s. “Chief (Thomas) is willing to sit down, talk, listen and take action. We are definitely making progress but progress is never fast enough.� Kent has hired 68 percent white officers and 32 percent minority since 2011, Thomas said. “That shows we’re trying to make real progress and bring diversity into the
department,� Thomas said. After Kent hires officers from the police academy or other police departments, they serve a one year probation period. Numerous officers do not pass probation, making it difficult to increase minority numbers rapidly. “We have extra high standards at the police department,� Thomas said. “We lose quite a few during the probation period.� Seven white officers and six minority officers recently failed to pass probation, the chief said. The hiring process of police officers also impacts the hires. “We can’t just handpick people to work for us,� Thomas said. “We follow strong civil service guidelines and testing policies (through publicsafetytesting.com).� Physical and written tests eliminate some candidates before Kent even gets a list of potential hires. “We deal with a somewhat limited candidate pool,� Thomas said. Despite the challenges, Thomas said the department is becoming more diverse. He said a study will start next month to try to determine ways to reduce the number of candidates
lost during testing and field training. “The evidence shows we really are reaching out to diverse candidates to help make the police department more reflective of the community,� he said. Thomas added the force also continues to reach out to the diverse community in Kent. “We’re working hard to do a better job and we are going to get there,� he said. Fincher took ride-alongs with Kent Police officers and came away impressed with how well they interact with residents, including the diverse communities. “It has to do with training and getting out into the community to learn about people, especially here since we have such a diverse community,� Fincher said. “On a ridealong I saw people waving at the police and engaging in conversations.� Fincher said she’s pleased Kent continues to look to hire more minorities. “We’re expanding but there is work to be done,� she said. “We have a lot of long-term officers who through attrition will be gone. We need to make sure we look far and wide when we hire somebody.� As far as the New York Times story and survey, Fincher said it surprised her how white police forces are across the nation. “It’s changing more slowly in sections of the country than I thought,� she said. Other Washington cities listed in the report and the percentage-point differences of white officers to white residents included Lakewood (plus 33 percent); Federal Way (plus 33); Redmond (plus 27); Mountlake
Terrace (plus 26); Bellevue (plus 26); Tacoma (plus
24); Everett (plus 20); and Edmonds (plus 10).

“Will the Seahawks repeat as Super Bowl champions?”
COMMENTARY
?
Question of the week:
The battle for legislative seats this fall will be fought in part with hundreds of thousands of dollars in donations recycled from the campaigns of incumbent lawmakers. Since May, nearly $2.8 million has been collected by the Democratic and Republican caucuses in the state House and Senate from members up for election this year. That money comes out of surplus accounts where lawmakers stash excess contributions, funds they do not need to spend because they face little or no opposition but want to use to help elect others of their party. Not surprisingly, caucus leaders are among those recycling the largest sums. They hold positions of power, and in politics nothing attracts money quite like the scent of power. On the Democratic side, House Speaker Frank Chopp, D-Seattle, has provided $80,000 to the House Democratic Campaign Committee, and Senate Minority Leader Sharon Nelson, D-Maury Island, has turned in $87,000 to the political operation of her caucus. Among Republicans, House Minority Leader Dan Kristiansen, R-Snohomish, and Sen. Jim Honeyford, R-Sunnyside, have each given $135,000 to their respective caucuses since spring. Both lawmakers are unopposed in November. Giving back in this manner is an expectation in each of the four caucuses and has reached the point where members feel a sort of peer pressure to give. It’s also an election ritual which experienced donors understand offers another way of participating in campaigns. They realize when they give to an incumbent who doesn’t need the money, their dollars could wind up assisting other candidates, and it’s all kosher. Kristiansen’s experience is instructive on how this all works. Until this year, he had never raised $150,000 for a campaign. He’s already topped $180,000 – a gain he says is no doubt due in

Vote yes on Proposition A When we find ourselves in a time of need, panic or emergency we don’t think twice but to call 911. We have seen police officers come to the aid of our family, friends and neighbors. They arrive, act professionally and compassionately and do their best to keep Kent a safe place to live and work. But what happens when they get back in their patrol car or head back to the station? Do they have the equipment necessary to make their jobs easier to protect us? Do they have the facilities necessary to serve the sixth largest city in the state? Are they able to fully focus on the residents of Kent without the worry of their working conditions? The sad reality is that they can’t escape these worries. Our officers are working in the same police station designed to serve residents in Kent back in 1991. But here is the difference between then and now: In 1991 Kent had a population of 37,960 and today we have a population of more than 120,000. In 1991 Kent had 85 police officers and by 2017 we will have 160 officers. When we call 911 our police department is there for us – now we have the opportunity to be there for them. By voting yes on Proposition A, we have the opportunity to build a new police headquarters, which will properly accommodate the growing needs of our first responders. It will update their training facilities

It also will provide them with resources to deal with the mentally ill community members they come into contact with. This proposition just makes sense. They risk their lives every day to keep our families safe – let’s keep them safe. Vote yes on Proposition A. – Bailey Stober
Kent Police need a new home Here in Kent we have the finest law enforcement agency in Washington. The Kent Police Department proves itself every day of every year for their efforts and effectiveness on the streets of Kent and in its multiple community involvement and engagement roles. Kent PD is cutting edge in 21st century policing, providing safety in our community and responding in a profes-
sional and efficient manner when our safety is threatened. Yet, for all that is 21st century and “cutting edge” about Kent PD, the facilities of our awardwinning police department are mid-20th century at best. Adequate in the day for a city of Kent that was some 40,000 residents, the facilities are completely unacceptable for a growing city of 120,000, and the new era of police practices, technology, and threats that have arisen. Our Kent PD facilities are quite likely the most deplorable in Washington. Proposition A provides an opportunity to promote safety, improve efficiencies and support our police by funding new construction of the Kent PD headquarters, renovating the jail and making improvements to the firing range for active incident response training. Vote “yes” on Proposition A when your ballot arrives in mid-October. It’s a vote that says “yes” in support of our Kent PD, the finest in Washington. – Mike Heinisch, executive director, Kent Youth and Family Services
Save the par 3 for future generations My grandchildren from Seattle come to visit us, and one of the things we enjoy doing together, when they come, is putt-putt golf next to the par 3 course in Kent. I was once again reminded how disappointed we are by the decisions of the Kent City [ more LETTERS page 7 ]
www.kentreporter.com [ LETTERS from page 6 ] Council, Kent city officials and the city’s Land Use and Planning Board to rezone and sell the par 3 golf course. It seems to me it would have been better to have never built the ShoWare Center – or maybe get rid of it – and save our beautiful openspace par 3 for our future generations to come. Does Kent really need more apartments and commercial buildings? Take a look at the empty buildings and businesses in downtown Kent and Meeker Street. We are concerned about air
pollution, etc., and yet you want to remove the little green, open space we have left. If there is anything that could be done to change your minds, I beg you to consider other options. Maybe those of you who have made this decision don’t have grandchildren to consider for the quality of life in their future. – Eleanor Griffith
Drivers, beware Your Aug. 29 article, “Kent school traffic cameras catch nearly 5,000 speeding drivers�, implies that the traffic cameras operate only
when the speed limit is 20 mph. That is not the case. I walked past Neely-O’Brien Elementary School on 64th Avenue South at about 7:20 this morning. The 20-mile-per-hour speed limit was not yet in effect. The lights that notify drivers of when the limit is in effect were not flashing and there were no children present. I saw the school traffic camera flash as a car drove by. Kent drivers should be aware that either the traffic cameras are being used when children are not present or that they are malfunctioning. – Janice Coulter

part to his “new capacity” as House Minority Leader. Kristiansen’s been assured of re-election since May, when no one filed to run against him. Yet contributions, many unsolicited, flowed into his campaign coffer through the August primary as if he were fighting for his political life. Many donors gave him the maximum $1,900 for the primary and general elections combined. Donations from locals will be kept in his surplus account for future campaigns, he said. Money received from outside the area is what he’s transferred to the House Republican Organizational Committee to aid GOP candidates in Snohomish County and around the state, he said. So far, that’s added up to $135,000. Kristiansen’s experience is typical of members in all four caucuses in the House and Senate. The House Democratic Campaign Committee leads all with $1.1 million in transfers from lawmakers since June.

Eight members, including Chopp, gave at least $50,000. Voters probably didn’t anticipate such behavior when they approved Initiative 134 in 1992 to reform the state’s campaign finance system. That measure did permit lawmakers to make transfers from their surplus accounts to caucus committees. But the newly formed Public Disclosure Commission has determined that the initiative limited the amount to the maximum for a contribution to a candidate. In other words, a lawmaker would be allowed to give no more to the caucus than they could someone running for office – which today would be $1,900. The Legislature amended the law in 1995 to scrub the limit, and lawmakers have been active recyclers ever since. Political reporter Jerry Cornfield’s blog, The Petri Dish, is at www.heraldnet.com.

Kent-Meridian aims for better season
IMPACT FC TRYOUTS, EXCEED EXPECTATIONS The second round of player tryouts for the Seattle Impact FC shattered expectations, team officials said. More than 50 players participated last weekend at the ShoWare Center. The hopefuls participated in six-on-six scrimmages. Impact FC will play all 10 home games at ShoWare Center, beginning with a Nov. 8 date with the 14-time indoor champion San Diego Sockers. Seattle is the newest member of the 23-team Major Arena Soccer League (MASL), the indoor game’s top-tier division throughout North America. Seattle officially joined the MASL on July 8, with Dion Earl, Bellevue native and former Sounders and SeaDogs player as owner and CEO.

Kent Meridian High girls volleyball returns with an older team that coach Michael Christiansen hopes will come to a successful finish at league, district or even a state slot. “We were young last year, we were a really young team,” Christiansen said. “I think we were a little disappointed on how we finished and how things played out, so it’s a little bit hungrier team, we have much better leaders on this team and they kinda want to come back and be better.” Chief among Christiansen’s improvements are improving the team’s drive to compete, and making sure they keep their heads in the game during their matches. He’ll also focus on getting his players used to playing at a varsity level. “We’re carrying 15 kids on varsity, most of those were on JV or C team last year, so they’re kind of new to the varsity level of

She’s since worked to improve her leadership abilities to understand what it’s like to be a first or second year player and understand their needs, as opposed to simply being the first or best player. While Riveland looked at leadership, Howard focused much of her postseason this year on how to improve her attitude. “Last year I thought that everyone’s attitudes brought us down, so over the summer I worked on my attitude to be the one to bring them up when they’re down on the court,” Howard said. She, along with other veteran players, also participated in summer volleyball leagues, and she says that the team learned better coordination and teamwork through those experiences. “This year I think the team will be good, I feel like this year we’ve gotten better together,” Howard said.

In practice, Colston is trying to build a fundamentally strong team that will be able to outlast larger teams in the South Puget Sound League. “We’re not the biggest team, so we’re really working on playing hard and aggressive with limited errors,” she said. “We want to earn our points, but we need to out play those teams so that eventually they’ll make the errors.” Just as Colston adjusts to the girls, they too are adjusting to her.

M-Power Youth brings music to disadvantaged youth FOR THE REPORTER
M-Power Youth partnered with Mill Creek Middle School, Centro Rendu and the Kent Arts Commission to conduct a recent two-week music camp for a class of nine disadvantaged students who had no musical training. Classes were taught by several music teachers and several volunteers at Mill Creek. The intensive summer camp met three hours each day and concluded with a
mini concert on Aug. 15 at the Kent Senior Activity Center. In two weeks students learned nine songs, playing seven at the concert. Parents and friends asked for an encore from the band members and afterward told organizers how much they appreciated the program. M-Power Youth is a community-led partnership of professional and voluntary musicians. Its mission is to provide academic or
economic disadvantaged youth a path to becoming self-confident and productive citizens through participation in the arts. M-Power Youth says that opportunities require that individuals have an education in a needed skill. “Our project is dedicated to enabling those youth to obtain an education so as to become productive members of our community,” said Jim Renton, board chairman of M-Power.
M-Power Youth says it intends to continue working in partnership with the Kent School District administration and Mill Creek leaders to initiate the program as an after-school opportunity this fall. Music teachers and volunteers will conduct the music program. The program will provide snacks and opportunities to win awards, including the owning of a new musical instrument and playing at various venues as students
become more proficient in playing as a group. Additionally, professionals from various career genres will speak periodically to the students to help them identify their career vision. DKG Educational Foundation, Muckleshoot Charity, Boeing Employees Choir and the Korum For Kids Foundation are major supporters of the program. M-Power Youth seeks volunteer help in various roles.

Coffee talk: Irma Morrison enjoys a cup of coffee while telling stories about her life on her 106th birthday last Friday. MARK KLAAS, Kent Reporter
Irma turns 106, enjoys life each day BY MARK KLAAS mklaas@kentreporter.com
©2013 MultiCare ©2014
There are no secrets to longevity, only choices. So says Irma Morrison, a Kent woman who has lived a wonderful life. All 106 years of them. “Don’t smoke, drink or chew,” the gentle lady said while clutching a cup of coffee at Aegis Inn, an assisted senior living and memory care facility on Kent’s East Hill. “I don’t know how I got this old. … I just know to work hard. I know that life is worth living.” Irma, who officially turned 106 last Friday, joined family and friends in a celebration at the Aegis center last Saturday. A third-generation Washingtonian, Irma was one of nine children born in Elberton, which is now a ghost town on the north fork of the Palouse River. The family lived there and later in Reardan. Irma was married to Harold Morrison for 63 years. They raised two children, Twyla and Wayne. Harold did janitorial work when
the family wasn’t tending to their farm in the Spokane area. Irma helped raise 37 foster kids, mostly in the 1940s. She also worked as a nurse’s aid at a hospital in the 1950s and ‘60s. “They were always doing nice things for people all the time,” said Brad Smith, Irma’s only grandson and a middle school teacher in Seattle. Irma has few surviving family members. She stays in touch with her 97-yearold sister Doris, who lives in Newport, calling “DohDoh” daily by phone. “I’ve told her that I couldn’t live without her,” Irma said. Irma has stayed strong in her later year, despite losing her deteriorating eyesight about a year ago. She stays busy with others at Aegis, looking forward to having coffee, a cookie and a good laugh each day. “I think I’ve done quite well with age,” she said. “I’ve had a good life. I would like to live my life all over again.”

Time to revive your lawn
Do garden phlox need to be divided? Is so when. Thank you. L.S., Renton
The month of September is a good time for lawn renovation. The hot, dry summer was a good indicator of the problem spots in your lawn as dry brown grass turns up where soil is compacted or full of boulders. Dig down into your brown areas to remove any clay soil, boulders or gravel under the surface of your lawn. Replace clay sections and fill in the space left from boulders with topsoil. Rake level then reseed or resod the area. Another way to improve a struggling lawn is to fertilize now with a winter lawn food. The most important time to feed a lawn in Western Washington is September and October. You can also fertilize in the spring but a fall feeding will ensure our lawn wakes up early in the spring to crowd out weeds.
the proud owner of Phlox paniculata and the variety “David� is a mildew resistant white flowering phlox that blooms at the end of summer. This perennial needs to be divided every few years or it will become old and cranky. Fall is the perfect time to divide phlox and other perennials. Dig the clump from the spoil, cut off side sections into clumps the size of your fist and replant into soil that has been improved with compost. Be sure to retire the old center of the clump to your compost pile. Phlox can suffer from mildew on the foliage so give it a spot in a mostly sunny site with plenty of space to ensure good air circulation. A mulch on top of the soil each summer will keep the roots cool and the tops producing those fragrant, white domes of bloom.
Q. Can saffron crocus be grown in our area? I love to cook with saffron but it is a
very expensive spice! Anon, email
Marianne Binetti
THE GARDENER
A. Yes. Saffron crocus or crocus sativus is an underused herb and easy to grow in our area. You will need to order the bulbs online as I have not seen them for sale at local nurseries and you want to make sure you get the crocus for culinary use. Find them at www. dutchgrown. crocus-saffron. html. and plant the bulbs as soon as they arrive so you can harvest the saffron this fall. These beautiful purple crocus bloom in the fall but should not be confused with the autumn blooming crocus (crocus colchicums) which are not edible. I suggest you plant and mark the location of the bulbs because after the autumn blooming the leaves will disappear. You will need at least 20 bulbs for a first year harvest but if not all the bulbs bloom this fall just wait until next autumn for an increased supply.
To harvest saffron visit the bulbs on a sunny morning when the petals are wide open and pull the long red filaments or stigmas off with your fingers. Dry the threads indoors and store in an airtight container. Add these to a cup of hot broth or milk and let steep for 20 minutes. Now you have golden saffron for paella and Indian food or add this golden broth to mashed potatoes for a Midas touch on the holidays. Saffron is the world’s most expensive spice but not because it is hard to grow – it is the hand harvesting of the threadlike filaments that makes it pricey. Even if you don’t intend to cook with saffron, add some crocus sativus to your garden for fall blooms in a rock garden or other sunny spot that has well drained soil.
A. Sounds like you are
Q. There is a vine that looks like a clematis that is huge and covering a shed in our neighborhood. It is very fragrant and nobody prunes, waters or feed this monster of a plant. I would love to grow it as a screening vine along a fence. Do you have any idea what it could be? M.P., Puyallup A. Sounds like you have met the Sweet Autumn Clematis or Clematis terniflora. This rapidly growing vine becomes covered with small but fragrant white blooms at the end of summer and into fall. It is happiest when given lots of room to sprawl and like all clematis does best in rich, moist soil with its top in the sun but the roots shaded – growing a clematis on the north or shaded side of a stump or shed is the perfect location as the top will head for the sunshine. Fall is a good time to add clematis vines to the garden and using this aggressive grower as a screen

is fine if you don’t mind that it will lose most of its leaves each winter and dead brown foliage often clings to the stems. Don’t prune clematis now, wait until the vines go dormant in late winter or early spring. Spring blooming clematis should be prune just after they flower – and if clematis pruning has you confused just remember that all clematis grow best if they are never pruned at all – so give them room.
