Body Found in Yelm
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hello All,
The body found in Yelm is a young girl who committed suicide in February. I spoke with LE today and this is what they told me. They also told me the body of the Ft Lewis soldier who was rafting last week has also been found this morning. My heart goes out to the friends and family of both these people.
We searched last weekend for Nancy, but found nothing. With the grass and weeds getting so tall, it is becoming dangerous for us to go through the brush and forests. Because of my concern over someone getting hurt, I am suspending the formal ground searches until fall. After the brush has begun to die back, we can begin looking for Nancy again (if she is not found during the summer). We will continue to do water searches (thanks to Tubbs).
We are now concentrating our efforts on fund raising for the summer. We will be participating in a fund raiser in conjunction with Starbucks located in Martin Village which is across from the Department of Ecology headquarters office. The event will take place June 13 and there will be live music. I hope those who live here will be able to come join us. It would be nice to talk face-to-face to those of you who contribute your thoughts and ideas.
The second fund raiser will be held in Tenino. I believe the scheduled date is July 12 (Tubbs, please correct me if I am wrong). This will be a huge event with multiple bands. I am looking at this event as not only a fund raiser, but the beginning of the healing process for people. We will have more details on both events later.
Thanks so much to all who have contributed to our search efforts. We are not done...just taking a short break until it is safe to go out again.
Bev
