STEPH DEROSA: DELIVERING MESSAGES AND SAVING LIVES >>>
I ran into Peter Lynn and Sean Alexander, co-owners of The Helm Art Gallery, earlier this week at the Grand Cinema. I was talking with both of them for this week's Trouble with DeRosa column. During our conversation Peter mentioned to me that The Helm had received some unfortunate hate mail via the USPS. I adore these guys, The Helm Gallery, and everything they do for our thriving Tacoma culture. So when I learned of this letter, I asked to see it and was rightfully upset about its contents. When asked if I could post it on the Spew, Peter and Sean said yes â€" but only if a message would be delivered from them to the letter’s author.
Here's the letter:
Here's Sean and Peter's message to the letter's author:
Sean and Peter ask the author to please step forward and contact them in person, no hard feelings. They would appreciate the opportunity to help this person understand what The Helm is, what Squeak and Squawk was, and how it positively affects the community. Maybe through mature conversation Sean and Peter would also be able to understand the author’s intentions, thus rectifying any issues with disgruntled neighbors.
