[Ed. Note: This writer will always remember the kindness Peggy Wolfe Kennedy showed me when I ran for Yelm Mayor in 2005 by coming to my Town Hall Q & A and sharing her views, advice, wisdom and counsel with me.
Mrs. Kennedy passed June 1st, just short of her 80th birthday, which happens to be my birthday.]

CONGRATULATIONS DR. NUTTER!
