Washington State Representative

Christopher

HURST An Independent Voice for the 31st District Jobs, Trust & Integrity. A Strong Leader During his career as a 25-year veteran police ofﬁcer and commander of a 15-city Homicide/Violent Crimes Task Force, Chris saw a disheartening amount of crime that resulted from not solving the problems with our education system. Chris believes that wise investments in education are the best insurance against kids becoming involved in drugs, gangs and crime. As Chairman of the House Public Safety Committee, he passed tough laws to keep sex and violent offenders locked up.

A Loyalty to Local Businesses His wife of 36 years, April, is a small business owner. She owns April’s Pet Salon on Cole Street in Enumclaw, where she grooms cats and dogs. Chris understands small businesses, and when Workers Comp and Unemployment Insurance rates were about to rise last year, he overhauled these programs in Olympia to avoid rate increases which would have killed jobs in our local communities. Chris and April know ﬁrsthand that small businesses are the economic foundations of our local communities. Chris also improved our Buy Washington statutes that will give businesses in our state a competitive advantage, and because he believed it was important to share in the sacriﬁce in these tough economic times, he cut his own legislative pay.

A Commitment to Returning Veterans Andrew Hurst, their son, was in the Army, and is back home after serving three tours of duty in the Middle East as a member of the 173rd Airborne Infantry, where 69 soldiers from his unit were killed in action. Their nephew was also killed in Iraq, so you can understand why veteran’s issues are important to the Hurst family, and are ever-present in their minds. Chris passed important laws in Olympia to help our returning vets.

CITY HONORS GSA AS TREE STEWARD The City of Auburn Urban Tree Board recently recognized U.S. General Services Administration as a Tree Steward for preserving the Weeping Willow tree at 400 15th St. SW, Auburn. Linda L. Chandler, director of the Greater Puget Sound Service Center, presented a proclamation and certificate to GSA during the City Council meeting on Monday. The Weeping Willow Tree will be designated as a significant tree in Auburn. The National Arbor Day Foundation recognizes Auburn as a Tree City USA, which rewards communities that effectively manage their urban forest and meet certain standards.

[ UPHAM from page 1 ] Upham’s cause and manner of death are still under investigation. The King County Medical Examiner’s Office said last Friday that Upham had died on Oct. 5. Responding to the criticism, Hirman said the police department had received no complaints before her death about mistreatment from Upham or her family, MultiCare Auburn Medical Center staff, the King County Sheriff ’s Office, the Muckleshoot Tribe or City officials. “It has been inferred that she may have suffered a black eye at the hands of police, but that is not correct,” Hirman said. “Rather, included in a related written report, Ms. Upham stated that she had sustained a sprained ankle and black eye when she jumped out a two-story window.” The family claims that Upham had been afraid of the Auburn Police before her disappearance because of an incident when officers allegedly mistreated her. They also argue that police could have been much more helpful after she went missing. Upham, a member of the Blackfoot Nation, was last seen Oct. 5 walking away from her sister’s apartment, according to a statement her father, Charles Upham, sent to media outlets. Auburn authorities say her body was found down a ravine behind the same apartment building. Charles Upham said in his news release that his daughter had bipolar disorder and bouts of anxiety and depression but that he did not believe she would harm herself. Hirman said that Au-

Misty Upham. ROBERT WHALE, Auburn Reporter burn Police did not ignore Upham’s disappearance in this final episode. She was reported missing on Oct. 6, her name and information were entered into the WACIC (Washington Crime Information Center) Missing Persons data base, and an active search and investigation began, Hirman said. On Oct. 6, searchers checked the areas in and around the home where she was last seen, Hirman said. Misty Upham, police said, was reported to have taken her purse, which contained her EBT card, a cellphone, a bus pass and other items. Family and friends told Auburn Police officers that she may have gone to White Center, Federal Way or Seattle to visit friends or her close childhood friend, or that she could have gone to other specific locations in Auburn, Hirman said. Officers immediately followed up on all reports of her possible whereabouts. In the course of the investigation, the detective assigned to the case spoke with friends and family, to help police find Misty Upham, Hirman said. Hirman said officers tried three times to ping her cellphone and gain historical

data from the cellphone provider that could potentially help police locate her. But this was to no avail because her service had been disconnected prior to her disappearance, Hirman said. Misty Upham, who grew up in the Auburn area, had recently returned from Los Angeles to support her parents, who were struggling with serious health issues. In 2008 she was nominated for an Independent Spirit Award for her role in the film “Frozen River,” in which she co-starred with Melissa Leo. She played a housekeeper in “August: Osage County,” which starred Julia Roberts and Meryl Streep. Tracy Rector, a director, described her friend. “Misty was a person very dedicated and very passionate about the arts,” Rector said. “As an actress, she understood that her work was about more than making films. It was about breaking the glass ceiling for other Native actors.” Auburn Police urge anyone who may have any additional information related to Upham’s death to contact them at 253-288-2121.

BY ROBERT WHALE rwhale@auburn-reporter.com

Let’s say the neighbors invite friends to spend the weekend inside their big RV. Most Auburn residents would probably say to that, “No problem, neighbor, have fun.” But danders go up when the neighbor’s relatives or friends park their RV on the property and stay in it for months. Or when the manager of a business lets a caretaker stay on his or her lot to keep an eye on things. Plenty of Auburn residents have been telling City Code Enforcement Officers Jason Arborgast and Chris Barrack lately that this version of RV living is bad for their neighborhoods, and they want something done about it. The problem is that while the Auburn City Code as it now is provides definitions, permitting requirements and development regulations for RV parks, it says nothing about how the City should regulate RV living outside of RV parks. So if the City means to act, it will have to do what other cities have done: establish regulations that

describe the permitting requirements, circumstances, and durations under which they allow people to live within RVs. Recreational vehicle living, Arborgast and Barrack told members of the Planning and Community Development Committee last week, typically occurs in two types of settings. The first setting is within a residential neighborhood where the occupant of a single-family home has allowed an RV to be parked on the residential property and for another family, friends or renters to live there for an extended period of months. The second is within a commercial area, where the property owner or manager has allowed or arranged for a caretaker to live in an RV in a parking lot to provide enhanced security of the site and buildings. Most cities, the two said, do not allow people to live in an RV outside of an RV park in perpetuity. Here’s what some other cities do: • The City of Kent allows an RV to be used as a temporary dwelling unit, provided the interval does not exceed 90 days and that the use of the RV is [ more RV LIVING page 23 ]

This week’s…

ALERT

Police Blotter Auburn Police responded to the following calls for service, among many others, between Oct. 13 and 17:

Oct. 13

Futuristic look: Teutsch Partners LLC, a Seattle-based real estate development firm, plans to demolish the building on the Gambini block on South Division between First and Second streets southeast to make way for Merrill Gardens, a four-story retirement community.

COURTESY RENDERING

[ BLOCK from page 1 ] 111 assisted-living and 16 memory-care apartments. Its 168,331 square feet of space will be divided between the below-grade parking level and three stories of memory-care units above ground, a mixture of one-bedroom, one-bath studio and two-bedroom, two-bath apartments. Plans for Merrill Gardens at Auburn show a U-shaped building with a center-landscaped courtyard, part of the courtyard accessible to the public, facing South Division. There will be two entrances, the first off First Street Southeast and the second off Second Street Southeast, the latter opposite Herfy’s. City officials estimate construction could start

sometime next spring. Elizabeth Chamberlain, planning and design services manager for the City of Auburn, said Tuesday that Teutsch Partners has applied to the City for a demolition permit and that its application is under review. In 2007, the Economic Development Administration awarded the City a $2.2 million federal grant and a $7.2 million local revitalization bond that upgraded streets, sidewalks and utilities to support such construction on South Division. City officials estimate that between them, the Trek Apartment retail project on the former Cavanaugh block on East Main and the Merrill Gardens project on South Division will bring 300-500 new residents to the downtown core.

Forgery: 10:50 a.m., 529 8th St. NE. Between Sept. 1 and Oct. 13, somebody stole money orders from an apartment office. Fraud: 6:16 p.m., 1521 D St. NE.

If Congressman Dave Reichert “twice voted against pay parity for women, and voted 15 times for the government shutdown that cost taxpayers $24 billion, and voted 50-plus times to repeal Obamacare … and voted against increasing benefits for vets and their families and LBGT spouses,” why is it then he keeps getting reelected as Congressman of the 8th District of Washington for the past 10 years?

COMMENTARY

“Did you get your flu shot?”

Don Brunell

Question of the week:

Editor’s note The third debate was to have been two questions from each candidate to their opponent and a final summary of the candidate’s position. Dahlquist is the only candidate who sent questions and a summary statement. The parameters for the final debate were as follows: the candidates were to send questions to The Enumclaw Courier-Herald/Auburn Reporter and the questions would then be forwarded to the opposing candidate. Roach sent an email through her campaign staff, signed Citizens for Pam Roach, stating she would not be participating in the candidate questions. The previous week she had agreed to send questions but said she was too busy that week. The decision was made to move the candidate questions to the final debate to give Roach more time. Last Friday, an email was sent to Roach with Dahlquist’s questions, which had been received on time. She was informed it was well past deadline for sending questions but she could write a summary of her position for the final debate. Roach was notified that she was not obligated to answer any questions. Following the email with Dahlquist’s questions, Roach’s campaign staff left a phone message that the senator would send two questions.

considered by pundits to be a prelude to the 2016 presidential ballot, but it is more than that. It is a referendum on jobs and wages. The good news is the unemployment rate dropped to 5.9 percent, the lowest since July 2008, and 248,000 jobs were added in September. The bad news is the labor participation rate – the number of people actually working or looking for work – is at its lowest since 1978 when the U.S. economy was in a nose dive. And it continues to slide. [ more BRUNELL page 6 ]

Questions Dahlquist’s questions concerned a couple of hot-button issues that have cycled through the campaign from the beginning. One of Dahlquist’s questions involved allegations of travel gifts Roach had received on a trip to Azerbaijan during the last legislative session and allegations of “inflated reimbursements.” Dahlquist asked when Roach would “pay the taxpayers back?” The Legislative Ethics Board dismissed the Azerbaijan complaint Sunday, writing there was, “lack of reasonable cause to believe the (Ethics in Public Service) Act has been violated.” The board wrote it was reasonable to conclude the activities were “sufficiently related to her legislative duties.” Roach’s expense report became an issue during the August primary after Dahlquist’s campaign filed a complaint with the Senate administration. Following the complaint, Secretary of the Senate Hunter Goodman and Keith Buchholz, Senate attorney, calculated Roach owed the state more

[ BRUNELL from page 5 ] The number of people in the job market fell by 97,000 workers for the second month in a row. That means that the unemployment rate is dropping in part because millions of people have given up looking for work because they can’t find a job. Ironically, these people are no longer counted as unemployed. The other troubling news is average hourly earnings declined, and in the last year most workers barely received a two percent wage increase after inflation. “No

than $4,500 for mileage and other expenses, which the senator paid back. The Dahlquist campaign made a second complaint Sept. 25 to the Senate administration alleging further problems with Roach’s expense reimbursements. A decision has not been released. Buchholz wrote in an email to Chad Minnick with the Dahlquist campaign, “We treat seriously all accusations of misuse of public funds. Although I realize it’s easy to make certain assumptions and the allegations that flow from them, we are not allowed that liberty. We also are cognizant of the statutory prohibitions on our taking certain actions, particularly when that action is requested within a few weeks of a general election.” The other question Dahlquist sent involved Roach’s history in her caucus and with colleagues. She wrote: “There is a well documented history of your abusive and demeaning behavior amongst colleagues, staff and constituents. In January of 2010, Senate leadership banned you from caucus for creating an intimidating, hostile or offensive work environment. In a public letter, they documented your pattern of abusive outbursts spanning your entire tenure as a state legislator. After 24 years, how will you respectfully represent your constituents?”

wonder millions of American say they believe the economy is still in recession, even though the downturn officially ended 64 months ago,” The Wall Street Journal reported. Activists responded by pushing a $15 minimum wage. But low wages are caused by the bad economy. Artificially hiking them won’t solve anything, it will simply raise some people’s pay and eliminate other people’s jobs in order to pay for it. A recent Rasmussen Report shows that 65 percent of voters now believe the nation is headed

Dahlquist summary: “I have been honored to be your state representative in Olympia these past four years. Political bickering costs the taxpayers precious resources needed in education, transportations and job creation. Voters expect results from their legislators, and I have earned a seat at the table to do just that. Through cooperation and teamwork I am successful in getting things done for my constituents. My two-year appointment as the ranking member on the House Education Committee allowed me to increase education funding by over $1 billion without raising taxes. I was the only Republican selected to write and negotiate the education budget. “My work has been recognized and celebrated by both labor groups and the business community. Being selected as the “Legislator of the Year” by the Fraternal Order of Police; “Guardian of Small Business” from NFIB; and “Cornerstone of Business” by Association of Washington Business has been humbling. I prioritize ensuring our community’s most vulnerable students are protected. For that I’ve been recognized with awards by Washington State Association of the Deaf, the Children’s Alliance, and the Career & Technical Education Association. “Working more than 25 years in the private sector, for a Fortune 500 company and owning a small business, politics hasn’t been my career.

If we cannot trust these elected officers of the court to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth, who can we trust? When they are misleading us, what are their true motivations? What could they really be trying to accomplish? This initiative is opposed by the majority of law enforcement in this state and well as the state GOP. It has 18 pages of regulations that go far beyond the stated intention. Taking valuable, scarce resources away from law enforcement to create needless regulation on law abiding citizens will not accomplish any meaningful results. Urge the prosecutors and judges to enforce existing law. Reject Initiative 594 and support Initiative 591. – Bob Zimmerman

ing costly new state programs requiring higher taxes and fees. The Wall Street Journal summarized it best: “If nothing else, the policy bias would be toward measures that increase growth, (rather) than higher taxes and additional costs for business. And, faster growth would go a long way to finally giving Americans a raise.” Don C. Brunell is a business analyst, writer and columnist.

needs to pass pro-growth legislation and President Obama needs to sign it. Among the measures that can stimulate our economy, create jobs and drive up wages are regulatory relief, fixes to Obamacare, approval of the Keystone XL pipeline and tapping our vast domestic energy resources, which would lower energy costs and create thousands of high-paying jobs. In Washington state, Gov. Inslee and state lawmakers should focus on streamlining and reducing regulations, keeping costs of doing business reasonable, growing international trade and avoid-

Her staff was told of the newspaper’s concern that it appeared unfair to send questions after the senator had seen Dahlquist’s questions. We stated that we would look at the questions and decide how to proceed. A Roach staff member responded that neither the staff nor Roach had looked at the questions, stating, “The format is very time consuming for her (Roach) given the rigid schedule she has to keep each day.” After the press deadline, Roach did not send a summary, questions or responses to Dahlquist’s questions.

KING COUNTY ELECTIONS recently mailed ballots to nearly 1.2 million registered voters for the Nov. 4 general election. Mailed ballots need a first-class stamp. Voters also have 25 locations to return ballots without a stamp by 8 p.m. on Nov. 4, including permanent drop box locations, scheduled ballot drop-off vans and Accessible Voting Centers.

www.auburn-reporter.com [ CUBBY’S from page 1 ] new owners are more than happy to clarify. “People who come in here get confused about the name, Serious Soul,” said Rod Brady. “My wife’s a Christian, and that’s where the name comes from. She loves Christ. So that’s where she got the name from. People think ‘soul food’ as just ethnic food, but it’s American comfort food.” So, what is this comfort food? For starters, of course, there are burgers and fries. Wouldn’t be any form of Cubby’s without burgers. Made from fresh ground beef. With all the trimmings. Doesn’t get much more American than that. But there’s more to American comfort food than just burgers The Bradys, he and she, want to give people an old-fashioned, mom-and-pop alternative to the big burger joints and other fastfood chains. They want their customers to lay a lip over macaroni and cheese, sink their teeth into beef brisket, ribs, fresh catfish, red beans and rice, pulled pork, friend chicken, collard greens. They want their customers to gobble up home-baked cornbread and old-school cakes, sip lemonade and sweet tea. All made from scratch on the premises from the freshest ingredients, they say.

New owners Rod and Diona Brady have reopened Cubby’s, a longtime Auburn restaurant, with a menu that includes comfort food classics and some soul food favorites. ROBERT WHALE, Auburn Reporter “Everyone eats fried chicken, everyone eats mac and cheese, everyone eats red beans and rice,” said Rod Brady. “These are good old American staples. This is what we were raised on. I don’t know who wrote the book and started saying this is for this culture and that is for that culture.” “We want to bring some of that homestyle food to the area,”

added Diona Brady. “To give people an alternative to the fast-food restaurants, the chains. That’s why we call it Serious Soul. It’s more about food from the heart. Not so much soul food and the South, but comfort food. It’s the good home cooking that people miss.” Diona Brady, a Renton native and 1981 Hazen High School

graduate, has been in the restaurant business for more than 30 years. She opened her first restaurant, Serious Soul, in Federal Way six years ago and it’s still going. Rod Brady, a California native, comes from a farming family. The Bradys and their kids have gone to great pains to restore the restaurant to the way it once looked to generations of Auburnites. “We had to do a lot of cleaning, a lot of cleaning. And as you can see, we’ve put it back the way Cubby’s was. We put the wood veneers back. We tried to use warm colors. We retrofitted the lighting, just put new elements in and put them back up,” said Rod Brady. “Cubby’s is an Auburn landmark, so we’re bringing American comfort food to Auburn. You can come in here and get the great food. One of the things we want to bring to Auburn is for Auburn to be one of the best spots for food. We want people to say, ‘We’re beating Federal Way, we’re beating Seattle.’ Seattle has all these high-end restaurants, but we want folks to come to Auburn and say, ‘Auburn’s better than that. Come to Auburn, we’ll clean your clock with our brisket sandwich.’” Rod Brady said. The restaurant’s hours are 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. daily.

October 24, 2014 [7] [ PACIFIC from page 1 ] that will soon be in place. King County began work Monday to close the gaps in the temporary barrier at Pacific Park that provides increased flood protection to the city. The King County Flood Control District is funding the work. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is providing the barriers, known as HESCOs. HESCO barriers were installed as a temporary flood protection measure along the White River following flooding in 2009. Last year, the height of the flood barrier was raised because sediment buildup in the White River was creating a higher flood risk. The White River is notorious for the high sediment load it carries from Mount Rainier. The river segment through Pacific is particularly vulnerable to gravel deposition and rapidly changing conditions because of the natural drop in channel gradient through this area. As the channel fills with sediment, the chance the riverbank will overtop increases. “We appreciate the partnerships and the work that is being done to protect our residents from the White River flooding,” said Pacific Mayor Leanne Guier. “But it is equally important that everyone also personally prepare themselves, their family and where they live for potential flooding.”

DOWNTOWN SCULPTURE GALLERY ON DISPLAY The 2014-2015 Auburn Sculpture Gallery has been installed in downtown Auburn.

BREAST CANCER AWARENESS MONTH

Woman survives plight, with support BY KATHY HEMENWAY For the Auburn Reporter

I am a nine-year breast cancer survivor. I was diagnosed in 2005 with breast cancer. It was complete shock when I was given the news. No one in my or my husband’s family had heard before the words, “you have cancer.” My first thought was of death and that my kids still need me at ages 8 and 11. My husband was with me when I received my diagnosis, and I’m so grateful he was there. It is so important to have someone with you when you visit a doctor for results from

a test like a biopsy. You need another set of ears because as soon as you hear the word “cancer,” you block everything else out. I was blessed to have lots of support from family and friends. One friend cleared her entire calendar to be with me for all of my chemo appointments. I had another group of girlfriends who would bring dinner for my family. Sometimes they would take me out for a drink and a laugh, when that was just what I needed at the time. I never had to ask for support; my friends just came forward to help out and try to

make things as easy as possible for me and my family. I think it meant a lot for them, too. Since that day nine years ago, my son, Will, and I have participated together in several Races for the Cure. Each year, I see so many ways we have made progress since my diagnosis, financed in part by money raised by the Race for the Cure, the 3-Day and other efforts. Will is a stronger runner than I am, but he runs with me for a couple miles and then he bolts to up his time. At the finish line, though,

he waits for me with a big hug and a big smile. It’s a tradition he and I have together every year. Perhaps one of my favorite parts of each Race is the Survivor Parade that closes the event. It is particularly inspiring to see breast cancer survivors walking under the 20-year survivor banner and even the 30-plusyear banner. Newly-diagnosed women can see the hope of survivorship right in front of them. I recently saw my oncologist for the first time in nine long years. It felt good to shut that door. ’Cause, now, I am doing great.

FOR THE REPORTER

Auburn Soroptimist members recently donated $10,000 to the capital campaign for a new nonprofit skilled nursing and rehabilitation center slated to be built on the Wesley Homes Lea Hill campus. The capital campaign raised $2 million to allow for private rooms and for the accommodation of Medicaid and Medicare patients. The total cost of the facility is estimated at $12 million. “As women, a large share of the responsibility of caring for aging loved ones falls on our shoulders,” said Soroptimist member Sue Singer. “This new stateof-the-art facility will be a great asset for our community.” Groundbreaking for the new facility took place in September. Soroptimist is an international volunteer

Some tricks for Halloween pet safety BY KATHY LANG Family Dog Training Center

Halloween is right around the corner. What’s a dog or cat to do? From a dog’s perspective, walking the neighborhood after dark can be downright scary. There are lots of strange-looking short creatures running down the sidewalk. The creatures smell and sound like humans, but they certainly don’t look like normal children

and adults. Dogs and cats who remain home as the trick-or-treaters arrive are exposed to the same sights, sounds and smells as those out on the street. In some ways, it’s even more frightening since these aliens are invading the pet’s territory with constant doorbells, door knocks and “trick or treats!” What’s a concerned pet parent to do? Even if your dog has a rock-

solid temperament and nothing bothers him, it’s still best to leave him at home on Halloween evening. You never know when something truly unusual might happen, resulting in a long-term behavior issue for your pet. Some frightened dogs will try to escape; they can slip out of the collar or pull the leash out of your hand. Others will lunge and bite. Puppies and older dogs with fear issues should definitely stay home.

Halloween is not the time to socialize or work through behavior problems. At home, it’s best to confine your dogs and cats so they cannot slip out the door. Pets who have a difficult time coping with lots of noise and activity should be exercised, fed and put to bed before the first door knock. A television or radio can keep your pet company and block out upsetting sounds.

Walk through any store and you’ll see racks of costumes, including dozens of designs for dogs and even cats. While some pets seem to enjoy getting dressed up, many do not. Some pets are afraid of the smells, textures and confining nature of many costumes and hats. However, if you take some time and use some treats, you can train most dogs – and some cats – to willingly participate in this Halloween tradition. If your pet is uncomfortable being brushed, bathed,

If you do decide to leave your dog or cat loose in the house, it’s best to have him wear a leash and stay back from the doorway. If he’s reliably obedience-trained, put him on a down stay in the foyer, or have a family member hold his leash each time the doorbell rings. If your dog will honor a babygate, that’s another way to keep him secure. For added safety, be sure your pet is microchipped and wears a current ID tag attached to his collar or harness. For especially anxious pets, talk with your veterinarian about medications that can help. And always remember to keep the pets away from the candy. before adding the costume) to keep the pet in position while you gently and slowly move the costume around his body. Continue to use lots of treats and praise. When you first attempt to actually put the costume on your pet, you’ll have the best success after an exercise session and but before a meal. A tired, but hungry, dog or cat will be more cooperative. If the costume is elaborate, or has multiple parts, let your pet get used to one piece at a time. Once your pet is fully dressed, the leash and treats will help him understand that he can walk and prevent him from eating his new outfit. Keep the dress-up session short and continue to reward your pet with treats.

held and cuddled, he may have more issues with fullbody costumes. A fancy collar or loose-fitting cape might be the best choice for this dog or cat. To make dress-up stress free, be sure to start small, move slowly and use lots of treats. Put your pet on a leash and feed him with the hand that’s also holding the leash close to his collar or harness. Let him sniff the costume. Build a positive association with the costume in one or two short training sessions. Your pet should quickly come running when he sees his costume, now that costume equals yummy treats. Keep your dog or cat on a leash and ask him to sit, stand or down. Use a command (train it separately

Julie was born and grew up in Auburn, gaining honors and having fun until graduating from Auburn High in 1978. Then she headed for water; first to Maui, then Alki and finally Sundin Beach on Camano Island. Gregarious and playful, she began in food and beverage at Lahaina’s Banyan Inn, then moved onto many of Seattle’s top eateries while attending her beloved U-Dub. In her 30’s she began a career in Horticulture and became a mainstay at Stanwood’s Christianson Nursery, until signs of a connective tissue disease Scleroderma emerged which she battled for the next 16 years. Her spirit lives on in the hearts of many: husband Bob Clampett, parents Ken and Fern Valentine, sisters Cathie McKinney (Bernie), Sheila Valentine; brother Dave Valentine; nieces Kacie Leacy (Ryan), and Amanda O’Donnell, nephew Chris McKinney; Children by marriage: JoEllen O’Reilly, (Dennis), Robin Ludlam, (Will) Scott Clampett; Grandchildren Maddie and Declan O’Reilly, Ethan, Tatum and Eliza Ludlam; many cousins, and her dearest friend, Gaylen Brule.

Price - Helton Funeral Home Honoring Veterans Since 1911

Patricia C. Stumpf was born January 15, 1919, and died peacefully on October 16, 2014. She had been in nursing care since suffering a heart attack in April. She was born and raised in Montana, living in Forsyth and Hysham, before coming to the Northwest with her husband Frank and young family in about 1950. Her adult life was as a mother and provider: raising five children (another, Carolyn, died in infancy), supporting the family after Frank died in 1970, caring for her invalid brother Virgil for 20 years, and being a model of selfless love and dignified conduct to all. In her later decades, macular degeneration took away driving and reading, and time diminished her short-term memory, but she lived on her own at the family home in Auburn past her 95th birthday. She had curiosity about everything, a great love of music, and a rich store of long-remembered poetry in her head. She was heard quoting pages of Longfellow in her 90s. Mom’s unassuming wisdom was based on respecting individuals as she found them, the utterly impractical idea that one should actually live Gospel values, and an unreasonable faith that goodness would come from good people gone wrong, eventually, if goodness was expected of them. “Patience and fortitude,” she often prayed. God gave her patience that she did not herself have, and she showed an inner fortitude that endured much. She is cherished by five children, Nick, Felix, Marilyn, Mark and Melissa, their spouses, a host of grandchildren and their children, and all who called her Pat, Grandma or Mammy. A funeral Mass will be said at Holy Family Church, Auburn, on Wednesday, October 22, at 11 am. A vigil will precede it on Tuesday evening at 7 pm at Price-Helton Funeral Home. 1162030

Mac Towner

Mac Towner went home to be with his Lord October 12, 2014. Mac was born in Auburn, WA on November 15, 1932 to Frederick and Lillian Towner. Mac is survived by his loving wife Carolyn (McGibbon) Towner; son Daniel Barnett; daughters Jacqueline (Barry) Boman, Janice (John) Harlor; stepsons William (April) Kohler, Steven Kohler; eight grandchildren and two sisters Kathrine Hansen and Winnifred Dinwiddie. He is preceded in death by his sister, Margaret Thorp. He graduated from Auburn High School in 1950 and worked in the family dry cleaning business and then worked for the railroad. He served 4 years in the Air Force and also served in the National Guard and Army Reserves. He was a mechanic for the Auburn School District from where he retired, after which he and his wife traveled and lived 9 years in Yuma, AZ, before moving back to Auburn 12 years ago. Mac enjoyed restoring classic cars, fishing, camping, hunting, 4-wheeling, vegetable gardening and get-togethers with family and friends. He helped construct the Auburn Eagles building and was active doing volunteer work in the communities where he lived, before and after retirement. A Celebration of life will be held at Messiah Lutheran Church in Auburn on Saturday, November 1, 2014 at 11:00 a.m. He brought several smiles to everyone he met and will be greatly missed.

What that means is that the City of Kent lets people live in an RV in residential and mixed-use zones for up to 90 days but prohibits them from living in RVs in commercial and industrial zones. • The cities of Federal Way, Renton and Tacoma do not permit anyone to live in an RV outside of an approved RV park. • Puyallup allows people to use RVs as temporary

but for no longer than 6 months. The City also requires that the owner obtain a temporary use permit to place the RV and to use it as temporary lodging. “Our committee has asked City Staff to research possible code language and establish a code with health and safety standards,” said City Councilman John Holman, chairman of the Planning and Community Development Committee.
