Notice to WACE members from Robin Blair 3rd VP WACE Board

On behalf of the WACE association, I have sent a floral arrangement to Hawthorne’s Funeral Home for Deputy Anne Jackson with our thoughts and prayers, and another arrangement to Trooper Giddings with our well wishes.

Tragedy recently struck home here in the Valley. A friend of mine, Deputy Anne Jackson was shot and killed in the duty. I met Anne several years ago when she started out as Skagit County’s Animal Control Officer. She was bitten by the law enforcement bug and decided to test for a deputy position. She is the kind of person that you never forget. She always was willing to help with anything and everything. No task was beneath her.

On the same day that Anne was shot and killed, another personal friend of mine was also injured. Trooper Troy Giddings was shot and injured as the suspect drove past him. Many of us have met Troy and know what a great person he is. I have spoken to him, and he assures me that he will be at conference ready to teach us all that we’ll ever want to know about junk vehicles. A sign of a true professional.
