Community mourns loss of Terry Home founder Mary Norman REPORTER STAFF

Terry Home founder Mary Norman died June 29 from emphysema and cancer. “She was very well loved, very well liked and respected in the community,” said Pacific Mayor

Leanne Guier, a member of the Terry Home board. “She’ll be greatly missed.” Norman, born in Sibley, Iowa in 1942 to Clifford and Gertie Wells, graduated from Sibley High School in 1959 and married Junior “Sonny” Norman.

Before moving to the Pacific Northwest, Norman worked for the Sibley-Gazette Newspaper and was later a bookkeeper for Cenex. Once here, she started her own bookkeeping business. In 1984 Norman’s life changed forever, when her

son, Terry, was involved in a car accident that left him with a traumatic brain injury. After discovering that there was no place to put her 18-year-old son outside of a geriatric nursing home, Mary and her longtime friend and partner, James

“Cec” Wilson, began a 10-year journey to build a home for young adults who had survived traumatic brain injuries. The 10-bed facility opened in 1996 in Pacific. [ more NORMAN page 3]

July 7 move out day for Big Daddy’s, other businesses near Les Gove BY ROBERT WHALE Staff writer

Getting on the health kick ...............

For the owners of Big Daddy’s Drive In and some other businesses next to the Les Gove Community Campus, it’s time to find new digs. The City of Auburn expects to close on the purchase of four properties next to the park on July 7. The Auburn City Council authorized the $1.25 million purchase of the properties, which are owned by Dorco, Inc., in April 2014. In addition to Big Daddy’s, the property is composed of the former Herr Lumber retail store, a small warehouse building with two tenants, a small, vacant retail building, and a small retail building occupied by Butt’s Tobacco. Auburn Mayor Nancy Backus said the acquisition of the property is intended to provide the City with additional land as it plans for the continued build-out of the Les Gove [ more BIG DADDY’S page 3 ]

HURST For State Representative Issues That Matter July 2, 2014

An Independent Voice for the 31st District

Governor Inslee signs House Bill 2155 by Representatives Hurst and Dahlquist.

Dear Neighbors,

An example of how I do business is our response to the theft of alcohol from stores after the liquor Privatization Initiative. Some large box stores had theft rates as high as 50%, mostly by juveniles. As chair of the Government Accountability and Oversight Commitee, I worked with my Republican seatmate, Representative Cathy Dahlquist, and we co-sponsored legislation that forced stores to more properly secure and monitor their alcohol, dramatically reducing their loss rates. That means fewer kids drinking, fewer drunk drivers and fewer fatalities on our roads, which makes all of us a lot safer. That’s what happens when legislators from different parties work together as a team!

One of the greatest challenges we face today is trust in our representative form of democracy. People are weary of leaders that constantly divide us for partisan and personal advantage. I think there is a better way.

Sincerely,

1080950

Dennis pleads not guilty to abandonment charges BY ROBERT WHALE rwhale@auburn-reporter.com

Terry Home founder Mary Norman established a residence for young people with traumatic brain injuries after her son was injured in a car crash in the 1980s. The company operates a home in Pacific and recently opened a 12-bed residence in Auburn. COURTESY PHOTO

[ NORMAN from page 1] In 2013, Terry Home opened its second facility, in Auburn, this time for 12 or more young adult survivors, including housing for returning veterans. From the beginning, Norman involved herself heavily in the day-to-day running of Terry Home. She served on the Terry Home Board as treasurer, and provided bookkeeping services for the organization. “She was a very compassionate and giving person towards Terry Home,” Guier said. “I tell people I am very honored to have known such a selfless person.” Norman was an active member of the Auburn Fraternal Order of Eagles Auxiliary, which she served as its secretary for several years. She could often be found at the Eagles Club on Thursday nights, enjoying the ‘barstool’ bingo. Mary was preceded in death by her long-time friend

According to the affidavit, there was no water for the children, and the only food was a bag of grapes left on a bed. According to the affidavit, there were piles of vomit and feces on the floor, and police had to bathe each child twice and change the bath water as many times before hand-

ing them over to Child Protective Services. According to charging papers, officers in Cowlitz County had arrested Dennis five days earlier on suspicion of driving on a suspended license, but she allegedly failed to tell anybody that she had left her children at home alone, “thus depriving them of food, water, the ability to toilet, and, of course, subjecting them to the inherent danger of a lack of supervision for five days.” Dennis had four warrants out for her arrest when police took her into custody.

Auburn woman wins Miss India Washington crown BY MARK KLAAS mklaas@auburn-reporter.com

Angela Goraphy is all about trying new things and helping others. Persuaded by family and friends, the Auburn woman decided on a whim to compete for the Miss India Washington title. She stepped onto the stage, wowed the judges, and stepped away the winner. “It was a surprise. I never really thought about winning the pageant,” Goraphy said of capturing the tiara in Bellevue on May 11. “I was literally doing it for the fun of it and gaining the experience.”

Happy July 4th!

The recently-turned 21 Goraphy qualified for the Miss India USA Pageant in New York City on Dec. 13-14. “New York is another eye-opening experience,” she said. “I’m looking forward to it. I feel real honored to represent my community.” If Goraphy becomes the first woman from Washington to win the national crown since Priya Ayyar in 1996, she plans to donate a portion of her winnings to charity, namely the Sankara Eye Foundation, a U.S.-based nonprofit organization that works toward eliminating curable blindness in India.

“Everyone should have the gift of vision. It is such a great gift to have,” she said. Her platform is simple but heartfelt: every child deserves a chance to fulfill their dreams. Goraphy, an Auburn Mountainview High School graduate, is a senior at the University of Washington, where she is studying to become a health care administrator. Away from the classroom, she excels in the studio as a professional dancer. Trained in traditional Indian dance and self-taught in contemporary dance and acrobatics, Goraphy has competed since she was 4. She is a dancer and lead choreographer for Pratidhiwani Dance, a nonprofit organization

that puts on a few shows a year. Goraphy’s brother, Allen, has been instrumental in her career as a photographer and video editor. An active volunteer in her community, Goraphy also is a member of the Kerala Association of Washington (KAW), a nonprofit, non-political, non-religious cultural organization that works toward the betterment of the social lifestyle of Keralites in the Pacific Northwest. Goraphy was KAW’s youngest committee member of 2011 and the youngest joint secretary in 2013. Goraphy, an American-born Malayalee, is the daughter of Suresh and Latha Goraphy, of Auburn.

I-5 is not the place for careless drivers who abuse hand-held devices. But for some, the rattling, ringing cellphone just can’t wait. And problems follow. To wit, a texting driver swerved and struck a Seattle Police detective’s unmarked car on the southbound freeway near the 200th Street exit in SeaTac earlier this year. The detective’s car ended up in a ditch, and a passenger wound up in a hospital with minor injuries. Just the other day, a driver with a cellphone stuck to his ear drifted out of his lane on the northbound freeway, almost colliding with the truck in front of him and nearly brushing a car alongside him. My car. Fortunately, the splitsecond episode ended safely. But it leaves one to repeatedly wonder: can’t that text wait? As adults, we must set a better example. Perhaps we should take a cue from our kids. Teen drivers are often called out for being the most common offenders of texting or talking on a cellphone. But adults have become the bigger problem. It may come as a surprise, but teens use their phones or text while driving substantially less often than adults do, according to new research by the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety. A recent survey found that adult drivers ages 25-39 were most likely to admit engaging in these risky behaviors behind the wheel. Another national survey indicated that nearly half of all adults admit to texting while driving, compared with 43 percent of teenagers. More than 98 percent of adults – almost all of them – admit they know it’s wrong. Six in 10 say they weren’t doing it three years ago. [ more KLAAS page 6 ]

Last week, in comments to tribal leaders, Inslee provided a [ more CORNFIELD page 6 ]

[6] July 4, 2014 [ CORNFIELD from page 5] sneak preview of where he’ll end up. First, the fish consumption rate will rise significantly, as tribes and environmentalists demand. Today it assumes residents eat an average of 6.5 grams of fish per day, which works out to be equivalent to an eight-ounce fillet per month. All indications are that Inslee will endorse boosting it to 175 grams a day. Second, the state might reset what is known as the cancer-risk rate. Currently, state law assumes no more than one person out of 1 million will get cancer from eating fish caught in Washington waters. If left unchanged when the fish consumption rate is boosted, it would mean stricter rules on toxins in discharged water. Cities and companies say stricter rules cannot be met. If Inslee

And third, Inslee is poised to use the fish consumption debate as a springboard to a different but related problem — of pollutants getting into rivers and waterways from sources the state doesn’t now control. These so-called non-point sources of pollution occur when runoff from rain or melting snow carries oil, grease, toxic chemicals and other pollutants into lakes, rivers, coastal waters and aquifers. “We could do this a thousand grams a day, 10 to the minus 20, but it still wouldn’t solve this problem of toxicity that our children and grandchildren are exposed to, because this permit

system doesn’t encompass the vast majority of sources for these toxins,” Inslee told tribal leaders. He said officials are trying to come up with ways to keep such pollutants “out of the stream of commerce so they don’t get into our water. And I have come to see this (fish consumption) rule as something that, if we do it right, it can have a larger impact on the reduction of toxicities that our families are exposed to. That’s one of the reasons it is taking us longer than we would have liked to actually propose the rule.” If it ends up working, Inslee might find finesse is a better method than force for his priorities.

Les Gove Park is just one of the parks, schools, apartments, churches and community centers throughout the district that provides nutritious hot and cold meals this summer, from June 30 to Aug. 22, free to all children ages 1 through 18 without regard to race, color, national origin, sex, age or disability. The program serves more than 2,000 meals a day. In its first year, 2005, the program served up 40,000 lunches. By 2007, it served 75,000. The school district administers the federal funds that the state doles out, hires the personnel and prepares the food. The best, and sometimes only, meals many children eat all day during the school year are provided by their school’s federally-funded meals program. Vendors, farmer’s markets, and farms from Oakville to Yakima provide

the food. The summer feeding program started at the Family of Grace Church on Lea Hill when church members noticed an increase in poverty after the construction of the Cedar Ridge Apartments. Then-Deputy Superintendent Kip Herren saw the church had a good idea, and the district decided to follow suit. “I think it’s one of the most successful programs for kids in terms of impact that this community has ever provided,” Herren, now superintendent of the Auburn School District, said recently. “This community provides lots of support for kids. Kids not having food in the summertime is a tragedy … What this does is provide summertime support for all children so they have good nutrition. And the location of sites in parks, near libraries, near schools, has added to vitality of other programs.”

ne in three teens has experienced some kind of abuse in their dating relationship, according to the American Journal of Public Health. One in three. This includes physical and emotional abuse, stalking, and sexual coercion. Abuse may look different in teen versus adult relationships, but we need to take it just as seriously. The Washington State Domestic Violence Fatality Review has been studying domestic violence–related homicides in our state since 1997. The research shows how early many abusive relationships start. Nine percent of domestic violence homicide victims were under 21 at the time they were killed, and 31% of homicide victims in studied cases were under 21 when they started dating the abuser. Several met in high school or middle school. Researchers found that education about dating violence in schools was not sufficient and often started too late. In their first experiences with dating, these young people did not get critical information about what a healthy relationship is or practical tips on what to do if someone was abusing them. Their parents also did not have the information they needed. Many tried to help, but did not know about resources—like their local domestic violence program—that could help them in their efforts.

The seventh annual Rockstar Energy Drink Mayhem Festival sweeps into Auburn’s White River Amphitheatre on July 8, bringing with it 20 of the most extreme heavy metal bands around. This year’s festival offers four stages, with headliners Avenged Sevenfold leading the way on the main stage, supported by KORN, Asking Alexandria and Trivium. On the Coldcock American Herbal Whisky Stage – featuring headliner Cannibal Corpse – Troy, Ohio-based metalcore band Miss May I will play its first ever Mayhem Festival in support of its fourth album, “Rise of the Lion.” “We got an email, I’d have to say it was about six months ago,” said vocalist Levin Barton. “We were pretty excited. We had played the Warped Tour before, both as support and on the main stage. But Mayhem is going to be pretty cool to play for an all-metal crowd.” Barton said he welcomes the chance to return to the Northwest to showcase the

nice. He also brought that old-school mentality.” Barton continued. “The best thing about playing is there are so many fans that don’t know the band who will be forced to walk by the stage when we’re playing. It’s awesome exposure.”

Ostrander takes over Lion boys hoop squad Okotoks Dawgs

will retire Cam Christian’s number

BY SHAWN SKAGER sskager@auburn-reporter.com

Success has eluded the Auburn Mountainview boys basketball team. In the eight years that have elapsed since the school's 2005 opening, the Lion boys have yet to enjoy a berth in the 3A Washington State Boys Basketball tourney. Thomas Ostrander hopes to change that. “I think one thing that I really want to do is to help build this program, where year-after-year we’re competing for league, district and state championships,” said Ostrander, 31. “I think sustainable success is the goal here. We don’t want to have two great years, then fall off and have to rebuild. We just want to reload every year, rather than rebuild.” Next season, Ostrander, who resigned this spring after six successful seasons as head coach of the Bonney Lake girls basketball team, takes over the Lion program from former-coach Terry Johnson, who left to accept a coaching position in Tennessee. Ostrander, a Yakima native, graduated from East Valley High School in 2001. During his prep career, the three-sport star – foot-

(On July 5 the Okotoks Dawgs baseball club retires the No. 17 jersey worn by the late Cam Christian, an Auburn High School graduate and Seattle University baseball standout.

player, not a D1 basketball player. It was tough to pass up a full-ride scholarship to a Pac 10 school. “I was there at the end of the glory years, so I went to the Sun Bowl, the Holiday Bowl and the Rose Bowl while I was there,” Ostrander added.

Before the Okatoks Dawgs take on the Saskatoon Yellow Jackets at Seaman Stadium in Okotoks, Alberta, Canada on July 5, the team will retire jersey No. 17 in honor of 2008 Dawgs outfielder and Auburn native Cam Christian. Members of the Christian family and the Dawgs family will be there for the ceremony, which is Cam Christian part of the celebration marking Dawgs Alumni Weekend, July 4-6.

Instrumental in leading the Dawgs to their second consecutive WMBL Championship, he was named 2008 Okotoks Dawgs Rookie of the Year. Brett Thomas, one of Christian’s teammates in 2008 and today head coach of the Dawgs collegiate team, remembers Cam as the living defini-

tion of a Dawg. “I feel blessed to have spent one summer with Cam,” Thomas said. “Cam was one of the most fun-loving, genuinely big-hearted people to ever walk this earth. Cam’s energy and smile were infectious and touched so many lives. Cam was the definition of a Dawg and everything it entailed, and I’m proud to say Cam Christian was my friend and teammate.” After his summer with the Dawgs, Cam transferred to Spokane Falls Community College

for the 2009 and 2010 seasons. His next transfer was to Seattle University for his junior year in 2011, where, as a promising left-handed pitcher, he was named team captain. Christian died in an automobile accident in October of 2011, a year before what would have been his senior season with the Seattle University Redhawks. AJ Fystro, head coach of the 2008 summer collegiate Dawgs, said Christian was an unforgettable person, and for many reasons.

“As coaches, we are privileged to be able to spend time with players that make and leave a life-lasting impression on us. Cam had just that affect on me. He was a very respectful, hard-working young man that made sure others were taken care of before himself,” Fystro said. “It is my honor to be able to say that I coached Cam and shared in a special time in his life,” Fystro added. “I will never forget the moments we shared.” John Ircandia, the Dawgs managing director, chimed in on Christian, and the retiring of No. 17. “Beyond being an outstanding college baseball player, Cam Christian was a first-rate young man,” Ircandia said. “He was the epitome of a Dawg, combining talent and determination on the field with perspective and common sense off of it. He is a worthy recipient of this recognition, and he joins two other Dawgs all-stars in Doc Seaman and Justin Cardinal. Cam, Doc and Justin, we miss you, and fare thee well.” Cam’s father, Lynn, his mother, Debbie, his brother, Tyler and his sister, Kyara remain core members of the Dawgs family to this day.

[16] July 4, 2014 [ HOOPS from page 14] During his final year of college, Ostrander married his wife, Destiny. “She’s a teacher as well,” Ostrander said. “We both went and did our student teaching abroad in Germany (after graduation).” After their time overseas, the Ostranders moved to Western Washington, where Destiny had spent her childhood. Having finished up his student teaching, Ostrander and his wife started subbing for local school districts. “We were doing that at a lot of districts, Orting, Bethel, Puyallup and Sumner,” he said. While Ostrander was subbing at Bonney Lake, football coach and assistant principal Jeff Gardner offered him a job coaching football. “I had a connection because he used to be the

www.auburn-reporter.com Puyallup football coach,” Ostrander said. “My roommates in college used to be Marty Martin and Colin Henderson, who both played for Jeff. He asked if I was interested in coaching football, and I said ‘yes, especially if it helps me get a teaching job’. So I started coaching there in the spring (of 2007), and then I got hired to be a social studies teacher there at Bonney Lake.” In short order, Gardner offered Ostrander the Panther girls basketball head coaching job. Although he had previously said that he had no experience coaching basketball or girls, the offer “intrigued" him. He applied and got the gig. For the next six years, Ostrander transformed the Lady Panther’s program, taking a team that had won just 10 contests in three seasons – including three the year before

Ostrander took over – and turning it into a perennial powerhouse. “The next year we were one game away from the state tournament. We actually lost to Auburn Mountainview in a loserout, winner-to-state tournament game,” Ostrander said. “My first year we won 18 games.” During his tenure, the Bonney Lake girls made it to the playoffs all six years, amassed 85 wins and played in two Washington State 3A Girls Basketball tournaments. “I’m just really proud of the way we were able to turn that program around and get it established,” Ostrander said. “It was really hard to leave. I had been approached twice to take over the Bonney Lake boys job. It was a pretty easy answer at the time because I didn’t feel that the girls were established yet. Plus, I really enjoyed

coaching them and didn’t have a need to go do anything else.” Now, content with having helped establish a tradition of success at Bonney Lake, Ostrander hopes to do the same with the boys at Auburn Mountainview. “This time around I really was ready for a new challenge,” he said. “I knew the girls program was going to be really good again.” Ostrander continued: “This is a great school with an awesome administration and very supportive towards athletics, which is huge for a coach,” Ostrander said. Throw in the offer of becoming Auburn Mountainview’s new dean of students and the chance to work with former rival and friend Chris Carr, and the job was too good to pass up. “Becoming the dean of students here was huge,”

he said. “I was ready to get in more of a leadership role, as far as the education part goes. I’ve taught for seven years and have my master’s in administration. And that’s something I’ve really desired to do, move up as far as that goes. So that was really enticing.” On the court, Ostrander hopes to establish a winning tradition. “One of the best compliments you can have as a coach is people saying your kids are disciplined and tough,” Ostrander said. “I think we’re going to really establish an identity of toughness, and along with that, of being a great defensive team.” Judging by the cards he’s been dealt, with a slew of talent returning for the Lions, it may not be long before the team finds itself in the state tourney. “It’s not like what I

stepped into at Bonney Lake with the girls,” he said. “Here, there are some basketball players, there are some pieces in place. Terry Johnson did a great job, he was a heck of a coach. So these kids have been coached up, so it’s just building on what they know and helping them to continue to grow.”

NOTICE Washington State law requires wood sellers to provide an invoice (receipt) that shows the s e l l e r â€™s a n d b u y e r â€™s name and address and the date delivered. The invoice should also state the price, the quantity delivered and the quantity upon which the price is based. There should be a statement on the type and quality of the wood. When you buy firewood write the sellerâ€™s phone number and the license plate number of the delivery vehicle. The legal measure for firewood in Washington is the cord or a fraction of a cord. Estimate a c o r d by v i s u a l i z i n g a four-foot by eight-foot space filled with wood to a height of four feet. Most long bed pickup trucks have beds that are close to the four-foot by 8-foot dimension.

“Freedom is not free, and July 4th gives us the opportunity to celebrate our rights and freedoms as Americans.”

Paul Stanley struts his stuff on stage during KISS’ set at the White River Amphitheatre this past weekend. KISS is celebrating 40 years as band with a tour with Def Leppard. SHAWN SKAGER, Auburn Reporter

KISS, Def Leppard wow White River Amphitheatre crowd By Shawn Skager sskager@auburn-reporter.com

As double-bills go, it doesn’t get more heavyweight than last Sunday’s KISS and Def Leppard show at the White River Amphitheatre. Although Auburn was just the fourth stop on the multiplatinum selling tandem’s 42-date Heroes Summer 2014 tour, both bands appeared to be in mid-tour form and firing on all cylinders. After opening act Kobra and the Lotus, Def Leppard took to the stage with the setting sun. The band began with a brief cover of The Who’s “Baba O’Reilly” before screaming into “Let It Go,” off the band’s 1981 sophomore

disc, “High ’n’ Dry.” Although most of the band’s set featured hits such as “Foolin’”, “Pour Some Sugar On Me”, “Rocket” and “Photograph” from 1983’s “Pyromania” and 1987’s “Hysteria” – which have both sold more than 10 million copies – the band placated old-school fans with three tunes off “High ’n’ Dry.” In addition to the opening number, Def Leppard trundled out an acoustic version of the ballad “Bringin’ On the Heartbreak”, and the guitar showcase “Switch 625”, late guitarist Steve Clark’s – he died of an overdose in 1991 – signature tune. Following Def Leppard’s

set, KISS took to the stage, highlighting 40 years of tunes and stagecraft with enough pyro and explosions to make your average Fourth of July display seem tame. The band ripped through classics such as “Deuce”, “Shout It Out Loud”, “Love Gun” and “Black Diamond”, with its usual flair, puncuated by bassist Gene Simmons’ fire-breathing and blood spitting and frontman Paul Stanley’s flight above the audience. The band wrapped up the show with a one-two punch of “Detroit Rock City” and “Rock and Roll All Nite”, relieving the KISS Army of duty until next time.
