Arson suspected in four-fire spree REPORTER STAFF

Valley Regional Fire Authority fire investigators have determined that Sunday night’s four-fire spree in Auburn is suspicious and authorities are asking the public to help provide any information about the fires.

The Arson Alarm Foundation and

NW Insurance Council are offering an award of up to $10,000 for information leading to the arrest or conviction of those responsible for the fires.

Anyone with information about the fires should call the arson hotline at 800-55-ARSON. Callers may remain anonymous. Residents may also call the

Auburn Police Department tip line at 253-288-7403.

As of Tuesday afternoon, the Auburn Police Department had no additional information to offer.

CELEBRITY TRUCK Mike Somerville holds his granddaughter, Anna Christensen, 2, in front of the mighty Optimus Prime Western Star 5700 XE truck last week. The truck, used in the 2014 summer film, “Transformers: Age of Extinction”, is touring the Pacific Northwest, with a stop at Auburn’s Truck Stop North. Optimus is a beast – a larger, Western Star truck with a flashy aerodynamic design – powered by a 16-litre Detroit diesel engine that produces 600 horsepower. It is 8½ feet wide and stretches about 35 feet in length. The truck will be on display until Oct. 15 at the lot, 2201 Auburn Way N. The public can view the truck from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, and 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. weekdays.

DRIVERS WHO USE STATE ROUTE 18 near Tiger Mountain State Forest and Auburn should plan ahead for full directional closures and major detours on the weekend of Oct. 17-18.

WSDOT maintenance crews will close all eastbound or westbound lanes of SR 18 for several hours Saturday and Sunday mornings (4 to 10 o’clock) on both weekends for paving,

guardrail and tree removal work. All work is weather dependent. A signed detour will be in place during all closures. For westbound closures, drivers on Snoqualmie Parkway and I-90 who wish to go westbound on SR 18 will be detoured onto westbound I-90 near Snoqualmie. All traffic on westbound SR 18 in Covington will be detoured onto State Route 516.

The King County Youth Sports Facilities Grant program has awarded two Auburn projects.

Auburn Parks will receive $75,000 for the Brannan Park free game court, and the Auburn School District will be given $35,347 to support the Lea Hill Elementary playground.

Funded by a car-rental tax, the King County program employs equity as a criterion for funding projects in traditionally underserved neighborhoods Executive Dow Constantine announced last Friday the recip- Constantine ients of the program’s matching grants totaling $837,880.

“Whether it’s building a ballfield in Auburn, or a mountain-bike park in Skykomish, these grants can make the difference in creating places where kids can play in their own neighborhood,” Constantine said. “The geographic diversity of these grants helps ensure equity and opportunity for all in King County.”

The program will leverage an additional $2.6 million for local parks and recreation projects through agreements with cities, schools and local community groups.

The grants, some as large as $75,000, must be matched by local community organizations, and are administered by the King County Department of Natural Resources and Parks.

Police: Voyeur tried to record woman in collegeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bathroom

BY ROBERT WHALE rwhale@auburn-reporter.com

A woman told Auburn Police she was using a bathroom stall at Green River College on Oct. 1 when a hand attached to someone in the next stall reached under the divider â&#x20AC;&#x201C; gripping a cellphone with its recording function on.

Police later arrested Anthony Lee Smith, a 37-year-old Kent man,

for investigation of voyeurism and booked him into the SCORE jail, where he remains on $7,500 bail.

The King County Prosecutor formally charged Smith Monday afternoon. His arraignment is at 9 a.m., Oct. 19 in Courtroom GA at the Norm Maleng Regional Justice Center in Kent.

Here is what happened, according to the Auburn Police Departmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Certification for Determi-

nation of Probable Cause: At about noon, a woman called 911 to report that five minutes earlier a male had been in the bathroom taking pictures.

Soon after that report, a school security officer notified 911 that he was detaining a man for taking pictures in a womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s restroom, but that the man was not being cooperative.

Auburn Police responded to the

school about noon and arrested the man.

According to the report, Smith told detectives heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d entered the bathroom and sat in a stall for about two minutes before taking out his cellphone and reaching under the stall divider â&#x20AC;&#x201C; however, he said, he had never hit the record button.

Protect the taxpayer, support I-1366

Sen. Pam Roach

COMMENTARY

This year’s Initiative 1366 should look familiar: voters have had a 22-year track record of overwhelmingly approving initiatives that make it tougher for Olympia to raise your taxes.

Regardless of your political leanings – whether you are a Republican, Democrat or Independent voter – isn’t it better when state government prioritizes spending and reforms government rather than just raising taxes?

Olympia has proven time and again that if it’s easy to raise taxes, they will. And they’ve consistently shown us that without these tougher-to-raise-taxes policies, they’ll impose higher taxes on regular taxpayers.

For me, it’s easy to support Initiative 1366: As a legislator, I know how Olympia works. There is relentless pressure to raise taxes.

That’s why I have continually proposed a bill to refer a 2/3-for-taxes constitutional amendment to the voters. But the political establishment in Olympia has repeatedly blocked my bill. That’s why we need to pass I-1366 in November.

As a taxpayer, I know how tough it is when the government continually takes more and more because that means less and less for you and your family to spend on your needs and priorities.

Unfortunately, too many in Olympia don’t get that.

The way it works in Olympia is there’s always a lot of talk about raising taxes on “the rich” but when taxes are actually increased, you and I get stuck with higher sales taxes, gas taxes, property taxes, car tab taxes and utility taxes.

Recognizing this political reality, five times voters have approved initiatives requiring a two-thirds vote of the Legislature – or a majority vote of the people – to raise taxes.

In 2012, 1.9 million voters (64 percent) approved the 2/3 requirement, getting more

Nonetheless, Olympia won’t listen to the people unless we pass Initiative I-1366 in November.

Despite huge increases in revenue, Olympia will continue to face future deficits due to unsustainable spending. Olympia has a spending problem, not a lack of revenue problem. Taxes are high enough already.

We have to protect ourselves. Without the two-thirds requirement, the Legislature raises taxes by billions – it’s happened time and time and times again.

for kids, one can easily begin to realize the scope and scale of this proposal, giving us a real chance to significantly reduce those criminal justice costs in the future by investing in a best start for our kids.

Proposition 1 calls for: 50 percent of the levy funds being invested in preschool age children and families (readying them for school); 35 percent being invested in strategies focused on children and youth age 5 through 24 (sustaining them in school); and 9 percent supporting communities in building their own capacity to create positive change (“place matters” to a child’s and family’s success in school and life).

Prop 1 also would support evaluation, data collection and improving the delivery of services and programs for children and youth; youth and family homelessness prevention; initial levy collections; and prior to completion of an implementation planning process, it would be used to create a family and youth homelessness prevention initiative modeled on a suc-

selves with this common sense policy.

History shows that initiative campaigns on taxes get a consistent reaction from Olympia: legislators interpret the voters’ approval of a tax initiative as a mandate to be fiscally responsible and responsive to the people. And legislators see voters’ rejection of a tax initiative as a green light to increase spending and raise your taxes even more.

What does this mean for I-1366? When voters pass I-1366, Olympia will be prodded to reform government, prioritize spending and re-evaluate existing programs. If voters reject I-1366, Olympia will resort to job-killing, family-budget-busting tax increases.

Protect yourself from Olympia’s insatiable tax appetite by voting yes on I-1366.

cessful pilot implemented by organizations serving survivors of domestic violence.

Once Proposition 1 is approved by voters, an implementation planning process involving communities and interested individuals throughout King County will begin and an advisory and oversight board will help ensure that the strategies are implemented in a manner that is appropriate for all cultural and ethnic groups. The distribution of funds will be equitably based on need throughout the county and each child and their caregivers will receive the tools and level of support they need.

Ballots are arriving this next week in your mailbox. I urge you to quickly complete and return your ballot, marking “yes” for passage of Best Starts For Kids Proposition 1. It is a once-in-a-generation opportunity for the voters of King County. It’s a once-ina-lifetime opportunity for our kids.

www.auburn-reporter.com firefighters. I can think of three right now, the MS Bike Ride starting and ending in Mount Vernon, where some firefighters ride 100 miles a day to raise money for MS research; the Tunnel to Towers run/walk in New York to raise money for victims’ families from 911 and now expanded to military personnel and families and the Toys campaign in December. I am sure there are many more.

I do not understand the motivation for attacking these exceptional men and women who stand ready to risk their lives to keep our lives and property safe.

They could just go home at the end of their shifts, but they put in many more uncompensated hours helping make some families’ lives better.

I believe that Mr. Galland could find more outrageous issues to consume his time than attacking such a worthy cause. It is interesting that he is writing about Auburn, quotes Federal Way, and lists Seattle as his home on blogs.

– David E. Hill

Too many untruths out there about guns Seems that every time there is yet another mass killing, the outrage grows just a little quieter, our shock dampened by the growing frequency.

[ RVS from page 1 ] an RV there and live in it for months, some people are anything but OK with that.

Or when the manager of a business allows a caretaker to stay on his or her lot to keep an eye on things.

From time to time, Auburn residents tell City Code Enforcement Officers that this version of RV living is bad for their neighborhoods.

And they’ve been asking the City to do something about it.

Problem is, while the Auburn City Code today provides definitions, permitting requirements and development regulations for RV parks, it has had zip to say about how the City should regulate RV living outside of RV parks.

That situation is likely to change within two weeks when, as expected, the City establishes regulations that describe the permitting requirements, circumstances, and time spans under which they will allow people to live in RVs. As per usual procedure, City Councilmembers had their first reading of the proposed rules Monday night, meaning the measure should come back for an up or down vote at the next council meeting.

City staff ’s initial recommendation precluded the use of an RV as a dwelling

The horror we feel, and ease of this carnage, seemingly becomes inspirational to the next maniac.

There will be debates and calls for tougher laws – and as history has shown, nothing will happen. Nothing, of course, other than to set the clock in anticipation of the next news report of carnage somewhere. I simply refuse to trivialize carnage as an “incident.”

That comes with the always timetested simple untruth: “Law abiding, responsible gun owners” shall not be infringed.

Does anyone care that the preamble to the Constitution speaks of “insure domestic Tranquility” (not “assure”/ promise, “ensure”/act, but “insure”/ protect – the writers were very delicate wordsmiths) and “promote the general welfare”?

Untruth fallacy No 1. Law abiding. These self-appointed saints have merely decided which laws they choose to abide. For example, have these law abiders who also happen to own a firearm ever run a stop sign?

Or littered? Or jaywalked? Perhaps taken some liberty with taxes? If any of these examples, any many more, are true, feel free to drop the sainthood of being “law abiding”.

Untruth fallacy No. 2. Responsible.

Really? Would a responsible family member buy firearms for a kid known to be mentally deficient, at a minimum known via his prior schooling?

unit in all instances outside of an RV park except upon issuance of a temporary use permit during the construction of a permanent single-family residence.

Planning Commissioners and City Council suggested that provisions should be included that allow an RV to be placed and used on a residential property that already has a single-family home for a limited time.

Staff incorporated a provision that creates a nofee registration program, allowing for an RV to be temporarily placed on a residential property for up to 90 calendar days with an allowance for a single 90-day extension. The original draft included a $214 fee to be processed under a temporary use permit.

“There is no fee. It does allow a person, if they are able to provide some justification or reasoning, the City would grant an additional 90 days. So, 90 plus 90 potentially, at the most,” Jeff Tate, assistant director of Community Development for the City of Auburn told the Council.

“I am pleased to see that we are doing the no-fee approach,” said Councilmember Largo Wales. “Some people do it recreationally living in front of grandma’s house or something. But the majority of people choose not to live under those conditions. Adding the ad-

How about the Newtown, Conn, mom who bought the firearms for her deranged son that killed 20 children and six teachers? Children easily finding guns at home and mistakenly shooting their siblings. You get the point.

I would offer that the responsibility of ownership – or the mere purchase of firearms – carries with it consequence. That consequence would be that when used in the commission of a crime, the last registered owner (yes, that would require that all firearms be registered) is held as an accomplice through negligence unless the weapon was previously reported as stolen.

If you own, and already keep your weapons secure at all times, well, there is no impact on you.

Harsh but simple. As an owner, either properly secure your weapons at all times or risk being held accountable for their use by anyone other than yourself.

Solve the problem? No. Help to insure tranquility and promote the general welfare? Sure does fit.

I have intentionally excluded all the competing stats, ideologies, the righteousness – frankly on both sides of the argument. Leave this with the one simple truth. People are now dead as a result of our own cowardice to act on their behalf in prevention - more so than in the cowardice of the assassins.

May God rest the victim’s souls and give the living the courage to insure.

– James Dillon

ditional burden of having to pay a fee when many times they’re financially distressed anyway would cause us not to have the people we needed sign the registry so we know where they are.”

Here’s what other local 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 consistent with the underlying zone.

What it means is that 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 City of Puyallup allows people to use RVs as temporary lodging on the site of an active construction project, but for no longer than six months. The City also requires that the owner obtain a temporary use permit to place the RV and to use it as temporary lodging.

• The cities of Federal Way, Renton and Tacoma do not permit anyone to live in an RV outside of an approved RV park.

[ ORDINANCE from page 1 ] charitable organizations,” very hard to regulate; we all have charitable natures at some level,” said Kevin Snyder, director of Community Development and Public Works for the City of Auburn.

New language specifies that no charitable organization has exclusive rights to use any public streets, alleys or public rights of way.

As reworked, the ordinance allows “any public agency that has as a temporary program its employees and representatives soliciting charitable donations, to support a bona fide charitable organization, provided such solicitation does not adversely impact public safety.”

And new rules allow police, not the charitable organization or volunteers working on its behalf, to determine what constitutes a risk to public safety at such events.

Monday’s action started in the office of Mayor Nancy Backus. Snyder had first broached the subject a week earlier.

“The main issue here is we are trying to balance the issues of public safety with the City’s interest in supporting the activities of the employees and representatives of public agencies who do occasional or infrequent solicitation activities to support bona fide

Snyder said.

“We have some instances in our city where we have public agencies or staff that are going to engage in the solicitation of charitable donations for a bona fide charitable organization. We want to support that, and at the same time a key consideration is reenforcing the need for public safety. And so we want to balance those interests by recognizing that this occurs in our city, but we don’t want necessarily to put [charitable organizations] through a difficult process to do that, because it is infrequent and not intended to be an ongoing activity,” Snyder said.

Supportive of the changes, Councilmember Rich Wagner had suggested it might be a good time to take another look at the City’s aggressive panhandling ordinance, to make it more effective while achieving the difficult balancing act of creating rules that pass constitutional muster.

“I was panhandled on the way here in the Safeway parking lot. It just happens all the time,” Wagner said.

Snyder said he and his staff will return with information about aggressive panhandling statutes that others have enacted.

Geocaching Adventure set for Oct. 17 in Auburn FOR THE REPORTER

Auburn Parks, Arts & Recreation has partnered with the Washington State Geocaching Association (WSGA) and the Auburn Tourism Board to provide the Auburn Geocaching Adventure on Oct. 17.

The treasure hunt is 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., with registration from 8 to 10 a.m. at City Hall, 25 W. Main St. Participants will receive a passport and map at registration showing where they can find 20 new caches in the Auburn area. The caches will be released at 9 a.m.

The adventure is an effort to bring the community together with out-of-town visitors to explore Auburn and its park system.

Geocaching is an outdoor, high-tech, treasure hunting game where participants navigate to a specific set of GPS coordinates, using GPS-enabled devices (including smart phones) to find hidden objects.

Crews prepare for flood protection work along White River in Pacific FOR THE REPORTER

For the sixth consecutive year, Pacific residents who live along the White River will have additional protection this flood season, thanks to a temporary flood barrier that will soon be in place.

King County is scheduled

to begin work on Monday to close the gaps in the temporary barrier at Pacific Park that provides increased flood protection to the city. The work is funded by the King County Flood Control District and the barriers, known as HESCOs, are provided by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.

“I am happy that King County and the City of Pacific are working together to be proactive in order to protect the Pacific community during flood season,” said Flood District Supervisor Pete von Reichbauer, who represents Pacific on the King County Council.

“Ensuring the safety of

our neighbors is our top priority”, therefore, we will continue to work together to prevent disasters like the massive flooding that took place in 2009.”

“The Flood Control District is moving forward with a long-term plan to reduce flooding around Pacific,” said Reagan Dunn, chair of the

King County Flood Control District Board of Supervisors. “In the meantime, these temporary flood barriers will protect those who live along the White River. I am appreciative of the continued positive collaboration between the Flood Control District and the City of Pacific.”

The HESCO barrier was

installed as a temporary flood protection measure along the White River following flooding in 2009.

This work is expected to take three or four days, and residents can expect truck traffic, large equipment and crews working within construction areas.

“The City of Pacific genuinely appreciates the collaborative work with King County, the Flood Control District and the U.S. Army Corp of Engineers to protect life and property during the flood season,” said Pacific Mayor Leanne Guier. “The citizens of our community can rest assured every effort is being made to avoid an event like the flooding of 2009. We look forward to working with the Flood Control District as we proceed with the levee project along the White River.”

The White River is notorious for the high sediment load it carries from Mount Rainier. The river segment alongside Pacific is particularly vulnerable to gravel deposition and rapidly changing conditions because of the natural drop in channel gradient through the area. As the channel fills with sediment, the chance the riverbank will overtop increases.

The Flood Control District is moving forward with two levee setback projects along the river that will reconnect more than 120 acres of floodplain to the river channel, giving the river room to fan out and deposit sediment.

Residents can learn more about how they can prepare for flooding, including the use of sandbags to protect their property, by visiting www.kingcounty.gov/floodservices.

FORECASTS of an El Niño weather pattern may suggest a warmer, drier Puget Sound winter ahead, but King County leaders warn that local rivers remain serious flood risks and urge everyone to prepare now for the possibility of severe flooding. To prepare for a flood emergency, families can assemble a basic emergency preparedness kit for the home, with items such as a flashlight with spare batteries, a portable radio, nonperishable food, drinking water, and books or games for younger family members. Sign up for flood alerts at www.kingcounty. gov/flood. The county also issues flood-related notifications and other emergency information via RPIN, a regional emergency information and notification system.

It was an old-fashioned game of keep away.

But Auburn Riverside only could sustain that for so long before Auburn Mountainview’s high-powered offense took control during the second half as the Lions earned a 36-17 homecoming win last Friday night in a Class 3A South Puget Sound League game at Auburn Memorial Stadium.

The Ravens recovered an onside kick to open the second half and took advantage when junior Andy Starkel converted a 38-yard field goal. That reduced Auburn Riverside’s deficit to 21-10.

And Ravens coach Bryant Thomas was not finished there.

He said he decided at halftime that for his team to pull off the upset, it had to keep the ball out of the hands of Auburn Mountainview standout senior quarterback Gresch Jensen.

But the Ravens could not corral the onside kick for a second time.

“We should’ve had it,” Thomas said.

“My kid ran right by it. That was the turning point.”

Jensen, who was the homecoming king, ensured that as the Lions scored 15 unanswered points. Sandwiched between a safety were Jensen’s 4- and 35-yard touchdown passes to seniors

Ravens hope to build on momentum

BY CHRIS CHANCELLOR cchancellor@auburn-reporter.com

He finally had an opportunity to see how his team might look at full health.

And Auburn Riverside coach Paul Lewis liked it.

Behind goals from junior Victoria Kendall and senior Izzy Creighton, the Ravens earned a 2-1 win Tuesday night in a South

Puget Sound League 3A girls soccer match against Enumclaw.

Citing injuries and a variety of other issues, Lewis estimated his team has only played with a consistent lineup twice this season. That meant that healthy players, such as Kendall, had to adjust to other positions. She played center-back most of the season, but Lewis finally was able to move Kendall to her tradi-

www.auburn-reporter.com

[ RAVENS from page 14 ] up front she scores a goal,” Lewis said. “It makes a big difference to have everyone available and playing the right spots.”

Lewis said he often talked with assistant coach Nicky Kinney about the impact Kendall could have made up front if injuries had not thrust her into a different role.

“I think if she had gotten to play the entire season as a forward, she would definitely be regarded as one of the best players in the league,” he said. “She’s tremendously fast and has got a really good touch.

We’ve missed her. She adds

to the attack so much.”

The Ravens (7-2-0 overall, 6-1-0 league) ensured they would finish the first half of SPSL 3A play in second place when Creighton added a goal on an assist from Kendall in the 48th.

Creighton emerged from a scrum to score, but Lewis said the play was set up by Boulet.

“McKenna is a really great passer. Anytime she saw the defense pulled up she’s going to knock it over. Izzy was anticipating because we’ve talked about it and worked on it and got it in there.”

That goal proved significant as an Auburn Riverside defender committed a foul

in the 70th minute. That gave the Hornets (4-4-1, 4-3-0) a penalty kick, which senior defender Mariah Bone capitalized on. Lewis said that was the third penalty kick the Ravens have surrendered this season, and they must resolve that issue if they want to contend with Sumner (81-0, 7-0-0) for the league championship.

“It’s one of the things that kind of separates us maybe in the learning curve from Sumner,” Lewis said. “We’ve got to learn to not make those mental mistakes and give people the opportunity to get free shots at it.”

Lewis attributes some of those problems to the line-

up inconsistency and his team’s lack of experience.

Auburn Riverside only has four seniors among its 18 varsity players.

“The lineups have been changed so much over the year that we’re still working on developing that cohesion,” Lewis said. “People get separated, they don’t talk, and the next thing you know they’re kind of scrambling and playing what we call emergency defense, and then that stuff happens.

“That’s something we’ve got to solve. Against elite teams you can’t give those things up.”

But with most of his players back, Lewis felt those issues were correctable through practice — and playing together. He hoped that the results against Enumclaw were the start of that.

“I think it was one of our more complete games,” Lewis said. “We finally had most of our team kind of available to play.”

Jensen said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was just a good discipline for me and a good learning experience.â&#x20AC;?

The Ravens took advantage of his absence, grabbing a 7-0 lead into the second quarter behind senior James Baldwinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 1-yard run.

Enter Jensen. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a Division I quarterback,â&#x20AC;? Thomas said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s got a scholarship. When he stepped into the game â&#x20AC;Ś it changed everything.â&#x20AC;?

Auburn Mountainview (4-1 overall, 2-1 league) scored 21 unanswered points to end the first half as Jensen connected with three different receivers for touchdowns. Weisinger caught a 4-yard pass and junior Bridger Child followed that with an 84-yard touchdown on the ensuing possession. Lacey then added a 10-yard touchdown catch with six seconds left in the half. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fun because they all bring something different to the table,â&#x20AC;? said Gervais, referring to his receivers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They make plays and

Gresch puts the ball up for them to do it.â&#x20AC;?

The 6-foot-4 Lacey had a game-high 109 yards on five receptions. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ryan Lacey is a monster,â&#x20AC;? Thomas said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He killed us.â&#x20AC;?

Gervais also was impressed with Laceyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s performance. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ryan Lacey obviously is a great basketball player,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a great guy going to highpoint footballs.â&#x20AC;?

Auburn Riverside (0-5, 0-3), which hosts Bonney Lake at 7 p.m. Friday, was led by the 68 rushing yards of sophomore quarterback Tiano Malietufa and junior Odarious Shaw. The Ravens likely will need to win the remainder of their games to earn one of the 3A SPSLâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s four playoff seeds.

But Thomas, who noted his team trailed 42-0 at halftime last year against the Lions, sees improvement. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We made young mistakes,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got to work with the maturity piece. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to learn from them. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re building a program and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re doing now. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got a great group of kids. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be all right.â&#x20AC;?

Auburn Mountainview is in a much different position. But the Lionsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; performance during consecutive road games against Lakes and Peninsula on the next two Fridays could go a long way toward determining their playoff prospects. And while Gervais liked that his team handled â&#x20AC;&#x153;some adversity a little betterâ&#x20AC;? against Auburn Riverside, he said it needs to continue to improve in its quest to advance to state for a second consecutive year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve definitely got some things to work on,â&#x20AC;?

Gervais said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Focusing until the end of the game being a big one.â&#x20AC;?

VRFA invites troops to attend Scout Night at the Fire Station The Valley Regional Fire Authority host its annual Scout Night at the Fire Station on Oct. 28.

Boy and Girl scouts from the Algona, Auburn and Pacific area are invited to join the VRFA from 5:30 to 8:30 p.m. at Lakeland Hills Station No. 33, 500 182nd Ave. E., Auburn.

The event includes a tour of the fire station, fire safety practices, basic first aid training, cooking safety, knot tying, bicycle safety, forensics and information on how to be prepared for a disaster.

Scouts and their leaders can attend any or all of the 11 learning stations.

Firefighters and other subject matter experts will provide information on how to make their homes safe, change the batteries and test their smoke alarms, treat minor injuries, call 911, tie knots, and how to design and practice a home fire escape plan.

They also will learn

emergency preparedness, tips for cooking safely and see firsthand the tools and equipment firefighters use while learning more about a career in the fire service.

New this year will be bike safety and forensics stations and an automated external defibrillator (AED) awareness station. Guest instructors from the Auburn Police Department, King County E911 Program and the City of Auburn Emergency Management will help make the evening fun and informative.

“Scout Night offers a

more in-depth learning experience for the scouts, combined with a fun evening at the fire station,” said Deputy Fire Chief Tim Day. The event is open to scout groups and all other youth explorer and adventure groups.

To register in advance and ask questions about the event, contact Public Information & Education Officers Kelly Tyson at 253-288-5882, or Kimberly Terhune at 253-288-5881, or by email at public.info@ vrfa.org.

Elizabeth Helen (Cline) Bodine went to be with Jesus on Wednesday, September 23, 2015. Known as Helen, she was born on September 28, 1922, in Emory, Texas, to Mildred (Whitman) and Arthur Cline. When she was two, the family moved to Seattle. Helen attended Lowell Elementary and graduated from Broadway High School and beauty school simultaneously in 1940. She met her handsome husband-to-be, Max Bodine, at the Spanish Castle and they were married in Auburn on June 20, 1941.

After the war, Helen and Max made their home in Auburn and had two children, Sharon and Gary. Helen worked at The Boeing Company during WWII and for many years as a beautician in Auburn. The family moved to Bonney Lake in 1956. After retirement, Helen began taking classes in oil painting. She became well-known as a gifted artist, painting seascapes and mountain scenes which showed her love for God’s beautiful creation in the natural world. Her paintings have been purchased by people from all over the world. She was a member of the Mountain Valley Art Club, Sumner Art Club, and Auburn First United Methodist Church.

Helen loved to be outdoors and her special interests included gardening, camping, hunting, fishing, boating, crabbing and shrimping, especially with her husband and her son, Gary. Helen enjoyed spending time with her family. She loved travelling to Europe with family and friends. She had a quick wit and a vivacious, adventurous spirit.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Max, in 1996, and by her four siblings. She is survived by her son, Gary Bodine, of Buckley, and Sharon (Bodine) Johnson of Shelton. She has seven grandchildren (Glenn Wolf, Nicole Johnson, Amy Johnson, Jeff Johnson, Christa Duncan, Sarah Wagner, and Kimber Bodine). She was so proud of her family which includes 13 great-grandchildren. She lived for the last year at Cedar Ridge Assisted Living where she made many new friends. She will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved her.

Please join us at a Memorial Service to be held on Sunday, October 18, at 1:30, at the Auburn First United Methodist Church, 100 “N” St. SE, Auburn. Memorial gifts may be made to the Auburn First United Methodist Church or to the American Cancer Society.

Salli Suzanne (Hiner) Morrill April 3, 1949 – October 3, 2015

Salli Morrill, 66, of Kent, WA, left this earth on Saturday October 3, 2015 with her family by her side. Salli was the first of four children born to Roy and Shirley Hiner April 3, 1949 in Rome, NY. At an early age, she and her family moved to the Seattle area.

Salli attended Renton High School, class of 1967. She went on to beauty school, but quickly ended up in the hospitality industry for over 30 years as a waitress. She was a favorite to all of her customers, many who would come in on the days they knew she worked. Early in life she often held two or three jobs to provide for her family.

Salli enjoyed hosting her family and friends at her home on holidays and special occasions. She found comfort cooking for everyone in her fancy gourmet kitchen. She loved to read cookbooks, cooking magazines and watch the cooking channel.

She had an amazing sense of humor and would always find ways to make people smile and laugh.

Some of Salli’s favorite pastimes were reading novels, playing bingo and watching sports, including NASCAR and Football.

Salli was an avid Seahawk and Husky fan and went to many games. She was so proud to see two of her granddaughters attend the University of Washington. Salli really enjoyed spending time with her husband, Kent, at their second home on the Big Island of Hawaii.

Salli was preceded in death by her father – Roy Hiner.

Salli is survived by her longtime partner and husband Kent Morrill, mother Shirley Hiner, son Dan Wall and his wife Cari Wall, son Tony Wall, daughter Richelle Wall, sisters Kathy Lombardi, Gina (Brian) Coughlin, Julie (Johnny) Birkland, 11 grandchildren and numerous nieces, nephews and extended family.

Salli was the centerpiece of our family and will be incredibly missed.

Services will be held at Marlatt Funeral Home in Kent, WA on Friday October 9th at 10:00 a.m. Immediately following will be the graveside services at Hillcrest Burial Park on Scenic Hill in Kent, WA concluded by a reception at 12:00 noon at Washington National Golf Course Pavillion in Auburn, WA. Aloha or casual attire suggested please.

In lieu of Flowers, please consider a donation to Seattle Children’s Hospital.

pice counselor who came to the family’s home to work with Jayza and give her the tools she needed to work through her grief.

“I didn’t want to fall in with that, `oh, yeah, they’re just kids, they’re resilient, they’ll bounce back, they’ll be OK.’ I wanted to make sure she had age-appropriate support,” Duhon said.

Jayza also attended group counseling at Providence Hospice of Seattle’s offices in Seattle and attended Camp Erin-King County, a free weekend summer camp in Carnation for children and teens who have experienced the death of a loved one.

Now, six years later, Jayza is a successful junior at Auburn Mountainview High School who is looking forward to attending college with hopes of becoming a doctor.

“She said the loss of her grandfather completely changed the direction in her life,” Duhon said.

Even though Jayza is a well-adjusted teen, she still turns to Providence Hospice of Seattle for support.

“They were a very good support system for me as a parent,” Duhon said.

“They taught me how to not overstress things. It was very helpful.”

At age 10, Jayza Duhon saw her grandfather Lee A. Ford every day.

She and her parents lived with Ford and his wife Violet in their Auburn home, and Jayza – their only grandchild – spent hours with him.

“She and my dad were very, very close,” recalled Jayza’s mother, D’Juna Duhon. “She would say, `Grandpa, I want to go to the store.’ She had $2 and got $30 worth of stuff and he paid for it. … When things were frustrating her, she knew she could go to grandpa and it would be OK. In her world, he could make anything OK and better.”

Then, completely unexpectedly on the day before Father’s Day in 2009, Ford died of endocarditis – an infection that attacked the inner lining of his heart.

Jayza was devastated.

Duhon, fearing for her daughter’s well-being and seeking help, turned to Providence Hospice of Seattle for children’s grief counseling. It’s a free ser-

“Our staff is honored to be given the opportunity to provide this level of grief support to kids and teens in our community,” said Beverly Goldsmith, a grief counselor with Providence Hospice of Seattle. “We hope many more will be open to using our services in the future.”

Jayza and D’Juna were featured in the fundraising video at Providence Hospice of Seattle’s Pediatric Luncheon on Oct. 1, which raised money to support children’s hospice and grief support services.
