The PSMC Board has learned that Karen Cooper, one of our newly-elected board members, passed away Dec. 27 due to issues related to heart disease. 

She was an active member of the PSMC, most recently responsible for planning the 2019 30th Anniversary Party on Dec. 7. At that party, Karen said, "I want this club to survive because I have many friends in this club and I love this club." Karen's organizational skills and creativity brought our club a wonderful celebration. Karen also was a past president of the club.

She leaves to mourn, her husband Bill Cooper of Maple Valley and a host of family and friends. Watch this space for details regarding a funeral service.

Our red hardtop was stolen from our driveway in West Seattle during the night of July 4th.  Our 1990 Miata was locked and they did not damage the car, so we are guessing they are familiar with the hardtops.

If you hear any info about our top, please email me Nancy Wright.

Thank you.
