Editor,

I believe Carolyn Cliff is running for Island County Superior Court judge for all the right reasons: she truly cares about people and our community. And that’s important to me.

I got to know Carolyn when my father retained her to help him with his will. She then helped my family through an emotionally difficult process after he died, and we needed legal support to enforce his will.

She helped us navigate a rather horrible situation with her calm, steadying demeanor and caring attitude.

Because she’s such a people person, I felt an instant kinship with her when we met. I came to admire her integrity, her level headedness, her honesty and her fairness.

We need more judges like Carolyn — caring, community-minded individuals.
