Library card bequeathed

The library is an important part of the community and has been for several generations. Just ask Gail Thulen and his granddaughter, Anna Jane Thulen.

When Colleen Thulen passed away in February of this year, Gail asked if his wife’s library card could be transferred to his granddaughter. It was always a point of pride that Colleen had a library card with a low two digit number.

Colleen was involved in the formation of the district, believing the La Conner Library was important to its citizens. When it was formed in 1993, she was the first chairman of the board of trustees for the brand new library district. She was always interested in seeing the La Conner Library become the best it could be.

Join Gail and Anna Jane, Sunday, October 13, at the Garden Club from 3 to 5 p.m., to celebrate the 20^th anniversary of the library district and get a glimpse at the plans for the new building.
