A bench for Norm

The Lloyd Nordstrom Guild raised more than $3,000 to install a bench at Karen's Place playground in memory of the late King County Prosecutor and Magnolian Norm Maleng.

The playground was named in honor of the Maleng's daughter, who was killed in a 1989 sledding accident. Shown on the bench are Judy Maleng and Mark Maleng with a picture of Norm sitting between them.

Joining them at the Sept. 17 dedication ceremony were (front row, from left) Sandra Due, Sheila Magnano, Dina Wells, Linda Dagg, Michael Magnano, and Chuck Dagg; and (second row) Marie Cain, Lee Anne Mitchell, Sandra Rook, and Julie Elliott; and (back row) Mimi McHugh, Marilyn Grant, Marybeth Alwood, Suzy Mointo and Karen Bakken.[[In-content Ad]]
