Louise Dustrude for the Hospital District Levy Lid Lift

Wow! Reading the wide range of views expressed in letters to the editor makes it seem that we residents have nothing in common except that we all love living here and we all care intensely about the future of this place.

I might add that anyone who is old or getting old seems to want to stay on the island as long as possible (and not be shipped off to a nursing home in Anacortes or Olympia).

The best way to make that more likely is to support the levy lid lift for the Public Hospital District — the final item on our long, long ballot.
