As mentioned in Wednesday’s FYI column, we were looking for Tonia Hays.
A reader gave us a poster of snapshots showing a girl doing pirouettes on a back porch. The montage, dated June 12, 1989, was found on a roadside in Mukilteo.
Wednesday afternoon, Heidi Walters, 34, of Everett cleared up the mystery. Walters’ sister, now Tonia Hays Wong of Bothell, made the poster of Walters in 1989, probably for a school project. Their parents are moving from their Marysville home and distributed mementos to their daughters. Walters got the ballet pictures.
Unfortunately, after she showed the poster to a neighbor, she put it on top of her car while she played with her children, and drove off.
Walters wants to thank Kelvin Barton of Everett, the man who brought the pictures to The Herald.
