For a friend
To the editor:

I am reaching out to you on the request of one of your employees.

I was going to come in person to place an ad for a dear friend of mine, Leta Bakke.

She was raised from Elementary to High School in the Burien area. She is fighting a rare blood disease that she was born with. I am having a Car Wash fundraiser at Duane Swanson's business on 1st Ave Sunnydale Muffler & Brake 13210 1st Ave South Burien WA. On July 18, 2015 Saturday from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m.

We are looking for volunteers for cleaning cars, directing traffic, holding signs etc. And of course donations as well.

My contact information is Marti Kirby (Messmer) kirbymarti@msn.com

Leta, Duane and I all went to school together, So it seems fitting to have it in the Burien newspaper

Thank you for your time,
Marti Kirby
