Letter To Editor – Endorsement By Joe Polowski

Typewriter with paper reading "Letters to the Editor"

In our coming council election I’m endorsing Scott Campbell and Dee Cragun. I have known Scott for several years and have found him to be smart, thoughtful and a man of strong character and common sense. I also have concerns about his opponent Diane Pfaeffle’s affiliation with the local chapter of the extreme left group Indivisable.org. They support open borders, no jail for illegal immigrants, an extreme version of the green new deal, and special rights for some groups above others. They have also stated that for government “deficit spending poses  little or no risk” and encourage it. In the other race, I know Fred Senn and he would do OK on council. But in the term I spent on council and the many years I attended council meetings Dee was the best councilman I saw. Thanks Joe Polowski

With a heavy heart we announce the death of our beloved mother, grandmother, great grandmother, sister, aunt, cousin and dear friend Susan G. Robideaux Emry. Susan was born April 18th, 1953, in Spokane, WA, to William and Reubie Robideaux. She went to join the Lord peacefully, in her sleep on August 5th, 2024, at her cherished home on Reflection Lake in Elk, WA. Susan grew up and rivaled her feisty, fun-loving, 5 brothers in Spokane, WA, where they performed musical skits for family friends. She attended Marycliff and Mead High Schools. She met her future husband, Brian (Bud) Emry, at a party and was instantly charmed when he tuned his harmonica in orange soda. Bud, in turn, was captivated by Susan’s party trick – reciting Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious backwards.
