Editor,

Having worked 15 years as secretary for Carolyn Cliff, candidate for Island County Superior Court Judge Position 2, I know firsthand she has an ingrained sense of fairness and honesty. Her integrity is unquestionable and her work ethic remarkable — I believe she always went beyond the call of duty for her clients.

She will bring that same conscientious approach to the bench.

I was born and raised on Whidbey Island. I appreciate the deep roots Carolyn has planted here. She practiced law here for almost 30 years and continues today to serve as a pro tem judge, something she has been doing for more than two decades. Over the years, she has developed a warm relationship with the community. She has developed relationships and trust because we know her and how she handles things, professionally and personally. However, with that being said, rest assured that her decisions as a judge are based on the merits of the law.

Island County deserves the very best in judges, and I believe Carolyn would be just that. I was proud to work for Carolyn, and both my husband and I support her 100 percent in her campaign for Island County Superior Court Judge.
