A little north of Ballard, in Broadview, someone stole a VW Eurovan out of Katie Barloon’s driveway late last week. She writes us:
“Along with many possessions, my dog’s ashes were inside. It’s very sad to me and I feel helpless. Although the van is my sole transportation with three kids, I don’t so much care about it. It will be replaced by insurance. However, my dod Harry was my best friend and losing him has been the hardest thing I have been through in my 37 years! He was very young and was diagnosed with untreatable cancer last February. It took his life in March and because Harry loved the van, we have been letting him RIP in it. Harry would always make sure he was in the van so he would always be included in our family outings, so we figured that he would love stay in there until we did a proper burial.”
Katie asks that you be on the lookout for a 2003 Silver VW Eurovan with a “We Love Our Pets” specialty plate, #PT01883. If you have any information, you can email her at samandkatie@mac.com. (Thanks West Seattle Blog.)
