Letters

Thanks to all who came to my aid

I had the misfortune of tipping over my tractor trailer on morning of Sept. 2 on S. Lake Stevens Road. Several people stopped to offer assistance and to help get me out of the cab. I wish to extend my most gracious and sincere appreciation to these people for their assistance and comfort. Thank you to the fire department for their quick response and aid to the situation. I’d also like to extend my apologies to those who incurred damage and loss of power due to this unfortunate accident.
