Charges filed in deadly Lake Sammamish crash

BY DANIEL NASH ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER

The King County Prosecutor filed felony criminal charges Dec. 4 against a driver who allegedly killed her husband and son-in-law after she crashed through her Lake Sammamish home in May. Carol Sue Fedigan, 68, was charged with two counts of vehicular homicide in the deaths of her husband, David Walker, and sonin-law, Sean Berry, as well as one count of vehicular assault for the injury of daughter Megan Berry.

Fedigan was additionally charged with the reckless endangerment of her 2-year-old grandson, who

had been in the vehicle during the incident.

According to charging documents, on the evening of May 16 Fedigan was having dinner with her family at her home on East Lake Sammamish Shore Lane Southeast when she decided to move her Jeep from a grass strip near her house into the driveway. She took her grandson with her, placing him on her lap in the drivers seat. Fedigan's husband, daughter and son-in-law remained at the dinner table.

Moments later, the Jeep plowed through the front door of the SEE CRASH, 11

Sammamish murder suspect extradited The younger of two defendants in Sammamish’s first recorded murder case was extradited from British Columbia, Canada, to face arraignment. The arraignment at the King County Courthouse took place Thursday Dec. 11, after the Reporter’s press time.

The King County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office reported Tuesday that Christopher Shade, 18, had been returned to King County the prior week.

Co-defendant Kevin David Patterson, a 21-year-old dual Canadian-American citizen, remains in custody in Abbotsford, British Columbia.

The two men face charges of first-degree murder, firstdegree theft and theft of a motor vehicle.

They are accused of bludgeoning 57-year-old Sammamish resident Richard Bergesen to death in mid-September, before stealing his credit cards and vehicle to flee

to Canada.

Patterson and Shade were taken into Canadian custody for charges of possessing stolen property.

Patterson had been living in Bergesen’s home under an Overlake Christian Church outreach program to help the homeless.

Shade was not living with Bergesen, but was an acquaintance of Patterson’s.

Patterson told investigators Bergesen had made unwanted sexual advances, according to charging documents.

Text messages between Bergesen and Patterson’s sister showed Bergesen was concerned about Patterson’s enrollment in college and whether he was making restitution payments for a prior criminal incident in which he had broken into a King County Library branch in Redmond.

The murder case was the first for Sammamish since the city incorporated 15 years ago, in 1999.

EDITORIAL

Could Paul Allen’s millions save billions?

T

here’s something good to be said for making billions of dollars in the technology industry, especially when people such as Bill Gates and Paul Allen, the co-founders of Microsoft, pledge to donate the bulk of their wealth.

Gates’ efforts are perhaps the most well-known, but Allen increasingly has been stepping up to fund scientific efforts.

The latest is his $100 million five-year grant to establish the Allen Institute for Cell Science.

The endowment follows Allen’s $100 million to fight Ebola in West Africa and a $100 million grant in 2003 to establish the Allen Institute for Brain Science.

Studying the brain and cells is extraordinarily complex.

Little is understood of what goes on within cells, how normal cells work and what goes wrong that causes mutations that can lead to cancer.

Allen’s money has helped and will help bring scientists and researchers to Seattle to, we hope, unravel the mysteries of who we are and how we function.

A new dynasty in the making

T

here are few things more satisfying that finally achieving a long-sought goal.

For Eastside Catholic, it was winning the 3A football championship.

The Crusaders did that on Dec. 5 with a 35-13 victory over Bellevue.

Being good, or even great, doesn’t always get you to the top. There could be another in your way that’s better or greater — at least for one night. For the past two years, that had been Bellevue, the winner of 67 consecutive games.

Not now.

That time, Eastside Catholic was victorious. Here’s to the start of the Crusaders own dynasty.

The anti I-594 backers reload

C

hris Erickson describes himself as “your typical gun owner who wants to be left alone.”

But state Initiative 594 “woke me up to the fact that we can’t be left alone any more.”

Saturday, the Camano Island carpenter plans to be at the state Capitol Campus alongside other gun owners angered by passage of the universal background check measure they view as an unlawful encroachment on their Second Amendment rights.

He’s coming to add his voice to the chorus of demonstrators at the 11 a.m. rally in Olympia and help ignite a conversation about keeping I-594 backers from advancing their gun control agenda any farther.

Yet what could be a galvanizing event for the state’s gun rights movement is getting shunned by some of its JERRY CORNFIELD better known leaders. They’re worried what might occur there could undermine efforts to fend off additional restrictions on gun owners.

The rally is dubbed “We Will Not Comply,” and civil disobedience is anticipated. People are bringing weapons to not only wave in the air but, in open defiance of the law, to sell or trade to others without first conducting a background check on the recipient.

“To be honest, I don’t think this rally will really accomplish anything,” said Adina Hicks, executive director of Bellevue-based Protect Our Gun Rights, the group formed to oppose I-594 and push a countermeasure,

?

Question of the week: “ Should there be a sin tax on e-cigarettes?”

Initiative 591, which failed to pass.

“They don’t have a further goal. They want to break the law. That frankly is not what we need right now. What we need is action,” she said. “What we need is people contacting their legislators and getting the Legislature involved to fix the nightmare that is 594.”

“Standing out there on Dec. 13 will show there are a lot of people upset. I want to do more than make noise. I want to make change,” said Rick Halle, national coordinator of the Gun Rights Coalition.

Kit Lange of Lake Stevens is one of those coming to Olympia who is certain to make the likes of Hicks and Halle nervous.

“We are going to buy guns and sell guns,” she said. “I will be trading a gun to someone else, and they will be trading one to me. We are going to nullify the law by our actions.”

Lange, a scheduled speaker, said she will talk about how the fight is now about more than an initiative and more than the right to keep and bear arms — it is about protecting the freedom and liberty of every citizen.

She’s not looking to get arrested but said, “If that’s what it takes we will. It is OK to stand up to tyrannical laws.

“We are not anti-government. If you are going to defend liberty, you have to be willing to defend it all the way.”

LWSD task force begins work to find space for more students Lake Washington School District’s new Long-Term Facilities Planning Task Force has its work cut out for them. The task force — comprised of 63 representatives from businesses, senior citizen populations, district staff and students — needs to study, analyze and make recommendations on when and where to build classrooms and other properties for the fast-growing school district.

The task force met for the first time Dec. 3.

Current enrollment stands at

26,615. That number is projected to grow to close to 30,000 by 2021-22.

Classroom space in the district will not accommodate these growing numbers, school officials said. In addition, the district must address its aging facilities. Complicating the task, the district’s last three bond measures did not garner the 60 percent voter approval needed to pass.

The task force's first step was to draft a work plan that includes activities to engage the broader community throughout the process. The first such

activity will be an online open house in January. That process will seek input on facilities planning needs as well as task force and sub-committee process and scope.

The materials presented at the meeting will be posted on a dedicated webpage on the school district’s web site at www.lwsd.org/News/Longterm-facilities/Pages. Those who are interested in following the task force’s work can sign up to receive email updates when additional information or reports are added to the page.

The importance of maintaining family traditions through the holidays

Research shows traditions are important to families because they build strong relationships between generations. Because these customs are so cherished, children often remember these special experiences from the holiday season more than the toys

or gifts they receive. Additionally, traditions can teach children about important values like family and community.

Here are a few reasons why traditions matter and how they create lasting memories: • Traditions bring people together There’s nothing like preparing a holiday recipe that’s been handed down from one generation to the next. It’s a wonderful time to reminisce about how the recipe brings back fond memories of holidays past while at the same time creating new

memories as you prepare and enjoy the dish with the help of family and friends.

“Traditions are an important part of celebrating the holidays,” says Marnely Rodriguez-Murray, of the food blog Cooking with Books. “Many of them revolve around special-occasion food - and those familiar tastes and smells have the ability to bring families of all shapes and sizes together.”

• Traditions can evolve over time - As families change, so do traditions.

Embrace these changes by creating new traditions or refining old ones. You can help make the holidays more special and memorable by giving others a chance to make suggestions for starting new and improving existing traditions.

traditions give family members something additional to look forward to each and every year. The repetition of these moments over time builds anticipation as each holiday season returns, enhancing the excitement, joy and fun for all.

• Traditions are just plain fun - Traditions produce long-lasting memories for everyone, like everyone opening their matching pajamas on Christmas Eve, because they have the ability to make people laugh and smile. What’s more, these joyful

Make this holiday season special by creating and preserving family traditions that will last a lifetime.

‘A Christmas Story’ creates perfect holiday magic 5th Avenue’s homecoming for director, Broadway smash hit, delivers from start to finish “It’s better than the movie.”

You’ve heard the refrain before, usually as a term of lament for a much beloved book subjected to a less than loving film adaptation.

But in this case — the intermission-time chatter between acts of “A Christmas Story, The Musical” — the statement was countlessly repeated as high praise for the stage adaptation of a holiday film classic.

Director Brandon Ivie, an Eastside native who worked on the musical’s JOSH STILTS development at 5th Avenue in 2010 and its successful run on Broadway, has returned to the Pacific Northwest for the official stage revival of a flawless spectacle of comedic brilliance and Christmas cheer.

While the show focuses mostly on Ralphie Parker (Mark Jeffrey James Weber) and his mission to convince his parents, The Old Man (Dane Stokinger) and Mother (Jessica Skerritt) by any means necessary that "a Red Ryder carbine action BB gun

with a compass in the stock and this thing which tells time," really is the best Christmas present of all, the show is so much more.

Based loosely on the life of radio legend Jean Shepard, his book "In God We Trust, All Others Pay Cash" and the iconic 1983 holiday movie of the same name, the show is a time capsule of what life was like in the 1940s, when children lived simpler lives and every American strived for the "nuclear family."

Narrated by Jean Shepard (Kurt Beattie), each moment of the show draws the audience in further.

Using many of the same stage directions and the majority of the same set pieces as the Broadway production, you feel whisked away to each location including Santa's haunt at Higbee's, Ralphie's school and the playground where they discover if a tongue truly will stick to the flagpole or Ralphie's house and its faulty furnace.

When the Parker's drive to pick out their tree and get a flat tire, the usage of half a car is cinematic and provides the perfect vehicle for one of the show's pivotal moments.

Ivie's vision plays big on the stage, yet invites the audience into each scene, especially the Parker home on Cleveland Street, with grandiose intimacy.

REVIEW

Brandon Ivie’s ‘A Christmas Story, the Musical’ takes place through Dec. 30 at the 5th Avenue Theatre in Seattle.

Even the smallest moments and exchanges on stage feel as if you're living them.

Stokinger and Skerritt, a real-life married couple, play off one another as the parents with impeccable comedic timing. Throughout the show Skerritt gets to show off her vocal range, which seems to stretch the musical alphabet, and Stokinger's footwork

displaying his love of his "major award" is bigger than life.

The entire cast, children and adults, delivers each joke, whether verbal or physical, with perfect timing and execution.

he ups and downs of the real estate market over the last half dozen years have led to some game-changing innovations in that sector. Most especially, Realtors have seen a rise in the marketing of properties online and a decline in conventional sales strategies, such as weekend open house events. That trend might reflect the needs of sellers, but many prospective buyers feel that there is still a place for the Saturday/Sunday open house in the househunting game.

Although the National Association of Realtors reports that fewer sellers are bothering with the open house concept, many buyers still rely on open house visits to get a feel for the market in a given area

and to be able to compare prices versus value. NAR statistics affirm that 45 percent of buyers use open house visits as a means to find a new home. Those most likely to attend an open house are married couples, people aged 45-64, and buyers who do not use English as their first language at home.

It is certainly practical to be able to peruse online a room-by-room photo album of a property, but it is a precious opportunity to be able to walk through a house without an appointment or without any pressure to make an offer. And if buyers notice that the same home has opened its doors over several weekends in a row, it might mean it is a slow-to-move property.

While such a possibility deserves a bit of investigation, it could also indicate that the seller is in a position to make significant concessions in their asking price.

Tower cranes brighten up the Issaquah holiday season

BY DANIEL BASSETT SPECIAL TO THE REPORTER

Holiday cheer is flying high over Issaquah this year, but it’s not due to Santa’s sleigh — at least not yet.

During the day it’s easy to notice the 162-foot tower crane high above the site of the future Homewood Suites

by Hilton. However, at night it’s near impossible to miss the giant metal structure that’s been decorated in brightly colored Christmas lights.

The crane, owned by Marrow Crane and operated by GLY Construction, is part of a tradition of decorating tower cranes during the holidays and other special events.

Last year, many cranes were decked out in blue and green to support the Seattle Seahawks during their Super Bowl run and crowning championship.

Designed by employees of GLY Construction, the Issaquah crane’s decorations consist of 2,600 C9 incandescent lights along its tower and 200-foot long boom.

“LED lights are just not bright enough,” site superintendent Jon Eaton said. “They lack the ‘wow’ factor.”

Each of the lights were placed by workers secured to the structure’s rigging, assisted by use of a service basket, Eaton said.

GLY Construction, which has ongoing projects throughout the Puget Sound, has many of its cranes festooned with decorations, including most of those dominating the skyline of the South Lake Union neighborhood in Seattle.

Bill DeJarlais, a principal with GLY Construction, said they’ve gotten nothing but positive comments about the decorations, which makes the effort all worth it.

The blood analysis showed legally impairing levels of alcohol and Ambien, a prescription sleep aid, in Fedigan's system.

Prosecutors allege that investigators uncovered evidence of "a significant alcohol problem" and abuse of Ambien that led Fedigan's family to stage an intervention several months before the incident. Fedigan

Gutsy play calls make difference in Crusaders’ win

Crusaders crowned champions Eastside Catholic topples Bellevue for first state football title

BY SHAUN SCOTT ISSAQUAH/SAMMAMISH REPORTER

The streak is over.

The Eastside Catholic Crusaders snapped the Bellevue Wolverines 67game winning streak, earning a 35-13 victory against the Wolverines in the Class 3A state championship game on Dec. 5 at the Tacoma Dome. Bellevue (13-1) had an early 13-7 lead, but the Crusaders (13-1) outscored the Wolverines 28-0 in the final 24 minutes, 30 seconds of the game to seal the victory.

Crusaders fourth-year head coach Jeremy Thielbahr said the entire offseason was dedicated to doing whatever it took to defeat Bellevue. The preparation paid dividends.

"You got to prepare for Bellevue so much harder than you prepare for anyone else. We have been practicing for Bellevue for a long time. We do all of our stuff based on Bellevue. We knocked off the Goliath," Thielbahr said. "We're going to relish the moment and enjoy it. This is a special feeling."

Crusaders linebacker Tony Masaniai said it felt good to knock off a team that had ended their season the past three years in a row.

"They have been running things for three years. It was time for a change and time for a new dynasty in Washington,"

Crusaders wide receiver Matt Laris keeps himself in bounds after getting past Bellevue defensive back Isaiah Gilchrist in the second quarter.

Masaniai said. "We did it as a team. The senior class ended our careers with a bang. It was the best year ever for us."

The Crusaders held the Wolverines to just 158 total yards. Bellevue didn't record any yards through the air against a hard-nosed Crusader defense. Eastside Catholic quarterback Harley Kirsch, who went 20-for-22 for 188 yards passing and

two touchdowns, rushed for 94 yards on the ground as well. Kirsch connected with receiver Devon Arbis-Jackson on a 28-yard touchdown catch on a fourthdown play with 6:54 remaining in the third quarter, extending the Crusaders' lead to 21-13. Arbis-Jackson hauled in SEE CHAMPIONS, 14

ith everything on the line, Eastside Catholic Crusaders head coach Jeremy Thielbahr and his coaching staff decided to throw caution to the wind.

The Eastside Catholic Crusaders weren’t intimidated by the Bellevue Wolverines in the Class 3A championship game and they proved it with their aggressive play calling.

The Crusaders converted 4-of-6 of their fourth down attempts, which played a pivotal factor in the Crusaders 35-13 victory in the Class 3A state championship game on Dec. 5 at the Tacoma Dome. The riverboat gambling style exuded by the Crusaders was a SHAUN testament to the confidence SCOTT the coaching staff has in signal caller Harley Kirsch.

Kirsch delivered with one of the most complete performances of his high school career against Bellevue. The junior left-hander went 20-for-22 for 188 yards and had two passing touchdowns. He also rumbled for 94 yards on the ground. Kirsch’s 28-yard touchdown pass on a fourth down play to Devon ArbisJackson, which gave the Crusaders a 21-13 lead in the third quarter, was the straw that broke Bellevue’s back. The Wolverines never responded and the Crusaders cruised to their first state championship on the gridiron.

“Harley was amazing tonight and did a phenomenal job. He put in a state championship performance and it was exactly what we needed,” Thielbahr said.

Kirsch isn’t the kind of person who likes to pat himself on the back. He’s a selfless leader who always gives credit to his teammates around him.

“Obviously when you get fourth down conversions it’s huge. Our offensive line did amazing. My teammates make my job really easy. I know every guy on this team will dig down deep and get it done. It was an amazing team effort today,” Kirsch said.

Arbis-Jackson is undoubtedly a huge Harley Kirsch fan.

“He’s a great player. He’s made this team what it is,” Arbis-Jackson said.

This past summer one of the first places I visited during my first week on the job was an Eastside Catholic football practice session. During my interview with Thielbahr, he raved about Kirsch’s wide array of skills and said he trusted his decision making 100 percent.

“Frankly, he has got the keys to the car,” Thielbahr said in late August.

A mere 14 weeks later, Kirsch led his team to the Class 3A state championship.

In 2015, Kirsch will hand the keys to the Eastside Catholic offense yet again as the Crusaders will strive to win back-to-back state titles.

the slant route at the 20-yard line before breaking a bevy of tackles on his way to the endzone. Bellevue never got on track following Arbis-Jackson's touchdown.

"That is Devon in a nutshell," Kirsch said. "He finds a way to make plays in the biggest games. I'm so lucky to have him as one of my receivers. He makes my life so much easier.

He can take a catch at zero yards and then take it all the way."

Arbis-Jackson finished with nine catches for 78 yards and one touchdown.

"It's an honor to do it," Arbis-Jackson said of breaking Bellevue's 67-game winning streak. "We worked so hard for this. We deserved it."

Crusaders running back/ UW commit Brandon Wellington had 33 carries for 110 yards and three rushing touchdowns. Wellington had two 1-yard touchdown runs in the fourth quarter to put the game away. Crusaders receiver Hunter Bryant hauled in a 6-yard touchdown pass from Kirsch in the second quarter as well. Kirsch was thrilled his team was able to defeat one of the best high school football programs in the United States.

The Crusaders avenged a 5220 defeat they suffered in the 2013 Class 3A state title game.

Eastside Catholic running back Brandon Wellington is hoisted into the air by one of his offensive lineman after scoring one of his three touchdowns against the Bellevue Wolverines.

"If you lose to the same team year after year it obviously can get frustrating and get in your head. To finally win a state championship is absolutely amazing and to beat Bellevue, which is a school with such a great legacy, it's a great honor," Kirsch said.

Thielbahr was happy to see the Crusaders 24 seniors conclude their high school careers in the best way possible.

"They've turned this whole program around. It's just an amazing group of seniors. Hats off to those guys," he said.

The Crusaders toughness was on display against the Wolverines. Thielbahr will be telling stories about Brody McKnight's

Fly fishing club celebrates 40th anniversary of breakthrough

BY REPORTER STAFF

Check out old photos of fly fishing and you'll see it: a couple of guys by the water casting their lines. After all, it was a man's sport. Forty years ago a group of Eastsiders changed all that.

The Overlake Fly Fishing Club (OFFC) was formed in 1974 with two objectives: create a fly fishing club to serve the Eastside area and to accept women as members.

At that time, and for decades later, a few local clubs would not allow women as members. But, with its open door policy, Overlake quickly grew in membership and popularity. Today, the geographical area the club serves has expanded to include members from Bremerton to Snoqualmie and Lakewood to Lynnwood with the ºmajority of members coming from the Eastside. And, as the name would suggest, the organization puts together fly fishing outings from Alaska to Mexico and Montana, and to the lakes and rivers of the Olympic Peninsula.

"Our club is energetic and benefits every level of fly fisherman," said club President Bruce Farr. "Whether you are a beginner who wants to learn fly fishing, an advanced fly fisherman that wants to enhance skills or expert who can share skills and techniques with others, you will find being an OFFC member an awesome experience."

Farr says the club still maintains the

Bruce Farr, president of the Overlake Fly Fishing Clug, casts his line in the Cedar River to demonstrate fly fishing technique. same open door policy and it attracts both local and national fly fishing legends who frequent the club's monthly meetings, offering presentations. In addition, the monthly dinner meetings feature a raffle

that always includes a fly rod and noted guest speakers and guides are on hand with presentations ranging from specialized techniques to fly fishing locations.

The club meets the fourth Tuesday of

the month at the Redmond VFW Lodge, 4330 148th Ave. N.E. Annual membership dues are $55 single, $65 family. More information is available at www.offc.org for details and membership forms.

Firewood, Fuel & Stoves

NOTICE Washington State law requires wood sellers to provide an invoice (receipt) that shows the s e l l e r ’s a n d b u y e r ’s name and address and the date delivered. The invoice should also state the price, the quantity delivered and the quantity upon which the price is based. There should be a statement on the type and quality of the wood.

The legal measure for firewood in Washington is the cord or a fraction of a cord. Estimate a c o r d by v i s u a l i z i n g a four-foot by eight-foot space filled with wood to a height of four feet.

Most long bed pickup trucks have beds that are close to the four-foot by 8-foot dimension.
