To Whom it may concern:
I am completely blind (100%), partially-deaf (40%), and currently recovering from a stroke. This stroke occurred April 28, 2024. Because of new information, I suspect my stroke was intentionally caused by my neighbor or perhaps some neo-liberal, for political reasons.
This goes to motive. I would consider myself politically a moderate, however, this is not how most neo-liberals would view me, even though I oppose war and support complete cannabis legalization. However, having been raised Catholic, I oppose most abortions and oppose most special rights for homosexuals other than what is provided for under the ADA. But what upsets neo-liberals the most, and why they have come after me, I consider transgenderism a mental illness. Like President Trump, I also believe we should not let men compete against women, which was destroying women’s sports. And I’m strongly opposed to mutilating or drugging minors, causing permanent changes to their bodies for what is mostly a temporary mental disorder known as gender dysphoria.
OHSU, which is a public Oregon hospital is one
OHSU, which is a public Oregon hospital is one of the most profitable hospitals in America doing what they ironically call “gender care,” I oppose using public funds for this de-affirming care for what is elective, cosmetic surgery. For this reason my punishment and torture ever since 2004 I believe has been directed by the neo-liberals and their minions from the Democrat party, mostly homosexuals and radical feminists. This is when my wife, a bisexual woman, came after me. Although it would be a year until we were actually divorced.
I realize the evidence presented here is almost all circumstantial. Nevertheless, clearly I have been targeted by someone, probably a neo-liberal or vigilante, for many, many years, ever since my 2005 selective prosecution by the supporters of these disturbing neo-liberal policies. I’m reaching out to request that your agency investigate this abuse.
According to my research both poisoning and electric shock can cause strokes. Certain toxins such as rodenticide (rat poison which I suspect they were using around the park, with no regard for our safety). Organophosphates (insecticides which I know was regularly sprayed around the park, by both the old owner and new owner), . Hantavirus Pulmonary (which comes from rat and mouse feces, which were prevalent around the back of the park, where I live. Adam, a former-maintenance man, said he discovered a leak in the pipes under the shed in Lot 22, and said it made a perfect environment for these rodents.) I also suspect someone was putting them in my open windows throughout the summer, for many years.
In addition, I may have been attacked with some kind of weapon which will cause electrical injuries which lead to spasms or vascular damage, which can cause a stroke or death.
In addition, Before reading this letter, first read this brief excerpt about the technology that is available if you want to electronically harass someone, especially if they’re blind.
“iPhone Electric-Shock Weapons Seized by Australian Cops”
Dateline: Melbourne, Australia
Source: Tech Media Network (Tom’s Guide)
Published: May 2, 2014
“The iPhone is an inventive little gadget, and has probably shocked a few people over the years, but never quite like this. Australian officials have intercepted a shipment more than 6,000 weapons from China, including a batch of iPhone lookalikes that deliver a painful, potentially incapacitating electric shock.
According to a report and photographs provided by the Australian Customs and Border Protection Service, officers at the port of Melbourne seized the phony iPhones, which came with instructions labeling them as “iPhone 4 super ultra electronic thin riot” equipment, as well as brass knuckles, batons and shock weapons disguised as flashlights.”
For your information I am providing a statement of the details and my suspicions about who is responsible, along with some related background documentation that may be helpful.
CONTACTING ME:
Although this may not be your practice, I would request I be contacted by either telephone or E mail. As a blind person (see above) and my personal experiences (described below), any unannounced visits from any person I did not already know would be threatening, and I may not respond well. Especially, given that two weeks ago, December 30th, 2025, around midnight someone began throwing small stones at my RV, as though they could read this first draft as I was writing it on the afternoon of December 30th. Also, please be aware, I have been diagnosed by LifeWorks with mild PTSD and would be easily startled by anyone pounding on my RV, such as Portland Police Bureau’s Sergeant Bridget Sickcon (who is apparently a gay woman who doesn’t especially like men who are straight or who have disabilities) and other officers under her scope and control.
BACKGROUND:
Let me begin by disclosing my last recent work as a news reporter at KBOO Community Radio, and two other print publications before this. While my work has mostly involved a wide variety of subjects, much of my recent work has involved police and prosecutorial misconduct. Specifically, the horrific murders of Fouad Kaady, Jordan Case, and the unexplained multiple killings committed by Clackamas County Deputy Jeff Grahn at a Gresham bar.
In filing this complaint, I trust I will receive equal consideration in any investigation involving a person or persons who have retaliated against me,committing multiple acts of violence against me — a vulnerable person and my property. For years I have been harassed, including vandalizing my property, hacking my computer, stealing my mail, unplugging my electric , etc.
MY STROKE:
I use cannabis daily, and have used it medically (with a STATE cannabis card for fifteen years). I have used cannabis for most of my life, and know that cannabis does not cause strokes. I drink a few beers a week but don’t use any hard drugs, which could cause a stroke.
In addition, before my stroke I exercised regularly and was physically fit. I eat fairly well, compared to most Americans. While a stroke can be caused by many things, my stroke is very suspicious, in light of the evidence described below.
Around April 1st of 2024, I learned from my Care Giver, Vera Smith (***-***-****) that a man,his girlfriend, and a noisy green sports car, and three annoying dogs moved into Lot 24 on the south side of my RV, , but I never complained about it. Although I was told earlier by Debbie that no large dogs were allowed to live here unless they were a service dog, so this tells me he had some extraordinary pull with the owner since none of these dogs were service dogs, and one was very large.
A week or two later the manager, Debbie Sleeper came over and said my fence I built around my RV had to be moved. This fence was meant to keep out prowlers and peeping toms which I told the manager was, and still is, a problem here in the back of the park,and which she and the former-owner, Maralyn, had approved, Despite this, she said the fence was about six inches to far over on lot 24, which seemed ridiculous, since my fence had been here for over ten years. In fact, if I had taken the matter to court, I’m confident I would have won the case. Yet, in the spirit of cooperation, I said nothing and with much effort moved the fence and gate myself.
So you understand My skills before my stroke, wile growing up my Step-father had built several houses from scratch and taught me and my brother much about carpentry, plumbing, and electrical wiring, despite our blindness.
About two weeks later, April 28, 2024, I had a stroke. I now believe I was poisoned by this neighbor., with something chemical, such as rat poison, or electrical, such as a zapper gun or a similar weapon, such as a fake I-phone or fake flashlight.
Around this time someone was regularly sneaking into my yard, despite the fence, leaving bottle caps on my table and beer cans on my front step, to let me know they had been in my yard, despite the fence. Along with stealing a few small tools, like terrorist, they would also sometimes late at night softly knock on the side of my RV, trying to wake me up. At that time, it was possible on the north side of my RV to push the fence far enough aside to slip in.
This is one of the reasons why I believe I was poisoned or shocked by my neighbor, causing my injury. After having what seemed to be a stroke, I was unable to use the left side of my body. I literally began dragging myself from the bed to the bathroom and back. For the next month, other than preparing meals, I mostly remained in bed. Not trusting Oregon’s medical system, I waited until my next scheduled medical visit in September to report my stroke to my nurse Practitioner, with House Care Home Care providers (971-202-5500).
With the windows open, it’s easy to hear your neighbors talk. About a day or two days after my stroke, I heard these same new neighbors from Lot 24 dragging their feet, and making monster sound, while laughing aloud. I suspect they were joking about me, since it seemed rather coincidental. If this true, This lack of compassion toward my disability and new injuries was extremely rude, and it made me begin to suspect they may have had something to do with my stroke.
Prior to my stroke an long after, I heard this same neighbor arguing with the man I believe lives in Lot 26, and some of these loud rants involved my ugly fence and getting me evicted, Although sometimes I may not have heard them clearly, but my window and door on that side were usually open and they would be talking especially loud, as though they wanted me to hear and be intimidated by their threats.
When I first told Marcus, the first nurse practitioner I had that I was being shocked by someone or something every night, but I didn’t know who was doing it. I soon discovered that telling any “medical person” about this seemed fruitless, since I had no proof. And perhaps dangerous, as they might begin to question my mental health. Since I feel I was being constructively evicted, this would certainly help their cause if I looked or acted crazy or angry.
this same neighbor later moved to Lot 22, which is the north side of my RV, which is mostly hidden from view. However, before they moved someone started throwing stones at my fence on the south side most of the day, near Lot 24. I ignored it. Then a few days later someone began pounding on my back fence with a hammer, near Lot 22, on the north side of my RV. When I came out to find out what the sound was. a man, who sounded like the same man from Lot 24 (with a Connecticut or New Jersey accent), denied he was doing anything. We ended up getting into a big argument, when he denied throwing stones, despite that before I said anything, he threw a shovel full of stones at the middle of my fence while I was quietly standing there. Obviously, to intimidate me. Apparently, the new manager, Rosa, heard something or was told something about us arguing and immediately called my care giver, Vera. The manager told Vera a man named Clark was responsible, or supervising the man who had threw the rocks. Vera said she couldn’t remember exactly what Rosa said. I know the new owner has been trying to constructively evict me since they bought the Park in 2023. Here’s why.
The same year the Monte Christo Communities Inc. bought Portland Pines, the state legislature had passed a law in 2023 that said current tenants of manufactured parks did not have to sign a new lease, if they lived in the same manufactured park for more than ten years., The law took effect immediately in July of 2023. Despite this law, the manager, Debbie Sleeper, walked around with new leases for everyone to sign, with no cover letter or never explaining to us that we didn’t have to sign the new lease, since most people weren’t aware of the new law. This lease stated the tenants had to begin paying for water, sewage, and trash removal. So vulnerable people who were tricked into signing were defrauded by this company, who has perhaps illegally collected tens of thousands of dollars from the renters that unknowingly signed.
Given this, I know the park’s owners are angry at me for reporting this fraud, or attempted fraud, to State Senator Pham and others, and requested that the legislature put restrictions on raising the rent,. which the new owners have done every year since purchasing the park [EXHIBIT C].
No wonder the owner is angry with me, since these utilities were previously included in the rent, and they were not entitled to force legacy tenants to pay this fee. So I’m not surprised my mail often disappears, and they are willing to over-look people throwing stones at my fence and RV, or vandalizing my property, or now allowing a man with a large dog and a motorcycle to move into Lot 24 [EXHIBIT D]
When Rosa learned there was a problem, for her to decide not to bother to walk back here to find out what was going on, or even bother to call me was discriminatory and negligent . Apparently, she assumed my care giver was my mental health care-taker, and violated my right to be treated equally and with respect as a tenant. I wrote to her supervisor about this incident, Alicia Lasko [Exhibit A]
The reason I am even more convinced that this man, who drove a green sports car may, have done something to cause my stroke, by poisoning or shocking me, is that about three weeks ago (in early December) the new maintenance man, Ron, came over to let me know he had moved into Lot 24 and that he was going to use a power washer to wash that side of my RV. He asked, “Your name is Chris, right?”. I corrected him and told him my name and thanked him for washing my RV. But his mistake about my name made me uneasy, since that’s the same name as the violent Jewish man, Chris Rascon, who married my ex-wife.
Given her deceitfulness over the course of our marriage, and since I’ve used my web site [wolfeout.com)to tell my side of the story [3 Americas]. And if anybody reads this, as thousands have done, they would discover that both of them have much to lose. If she isn’t able to prove anything I have said is untrue, why hasn’t she, or Chris Rascon, or the former-CEO of E-Bay Meg Whitman, who is worth a billion dollars, sued me?
Because it’s all true, and they know it. And in Chapter 7, The Theft of Abraham Wolfe, I wrote about my ex-wife’s dishonesty, Chris Rascon’s history of violence, and that’s why I believe they may have paid someone to poison or shock me, to shut me up [EXHIBIT B].
Respectfully submitted,
Don Wolfe, Unit 23 of the Portland Pines
EXHIBIT A
Hello,
I am a resident at Portland Pines and would like to report an incident of discrimination, so you may take appropriate action.
First of all, last Thursday, August 30th, a person or persons began throwing stones at my fence and RV, all day long. I decided to ignore it, hoping these children would soon grow tired of this game and go away. But I was mistaken.
This morning, September 4th, at about 9:00 a.m., someone began banging on something with a hammer. It sounded like someone was banging on my back gate, a little while later, I went outside to check it out. When I walked bye the fence along Unit 22, without saying anything, someone threw a shovel of gravel at the fence at waist level where I was standing. apparently, trying to scare me.
I instinctively yelled what are you doing and a man yelled back, he wasn’t doing anything, even though he had clearly threw a shovel of stones at me, trying to scare me.
I said, “That’s pretty sick, throwing stones at a blind man.” He claimed he didn’t know I was blind, except I don’t think this was true. Otherwise, he should have feared someone might shoot him for what he did, and blind people usually don’t own guns.
Things quickly escalated and we began arguing, and he challenged me to come outside and we would settle this, saying, ” You never come out!”[Which proves he was lying, since he knew who I was.]
The reason I never come out is that several years ago someone began throwing stones at my feet when I walked down to check my mail. I don’t know who it was, but it came from the lot which is kitty corner from me, where Alan, the former manager and his wife Debbie lived.
I’m disappointed that Rosa didn’t call me this morning to find out what was going on. Instead she decided to call my care giver, So far, I have been unable to get my care giver to call me back and give me Rosa’s telephone number, so I’m writing to you to report this matter.
Your time is appreciated. I trust you will take appropriate action.
Thank you,
Don Wolfe
EXHIBIT B
(excerpted from Chapter 7 of 3 Americas
“However as I describe above, both my wife’s lover (Chris Rascon) and his ex-wife (Libby Rascon) were good friends of Whitman, and I believe they conspired with the current Governor, Senator Wyden and Clackamas County Corrections to prevent me from attending my divorce and custody trial in Eugene and putting the Rascons on the stand, which would have embarrassed Whitman, who sold her stock in E-Bay for one billion dollars one year later.
My wife married a Jewish man, Chris Rascon, one week after she arranged (with the help of Senator Wyden, Governor Kulongoski , and Jay Scroggin, who interestingly runs Portland’s sex offender units, where he could easily continue to harrass me). And to have me arrested on an alleged PV. Specifically, because I planned to disclose that Libby Rascon told me that Chris Rascon had broke her wrist shortly after she confronted him about having affairs with both my ex-wife and my former mother-in-law.
Apparently according to Christel, Chris Rascon had an extra apartment that Libby didn’t know about. A private love nest that required a code to get in to…and curiously Libby, his wife at the time, didn’t have the code. I wonder why?
Make no mistake, I intended to question my wife about what she knew about this secret apartment and some other serious concerns I had about Chris being a safe and healthy guardian to our son, Abraham, along with her affairs with two UCC professors, which was well within my rights, as his biological father.
Because of the Rascon’s direct ties to Meg Whitman and E-Bay, it is very likely that Whitman’s stock would have taken a tumble and lost value [consideration] if I had been allowed to question Christel under oath.
Shortly after Christel moved to Eugene on December 24th (so she could be with Chris on Christmas day), she brought Abraham back to Portland for a visit. While we were in the bathroom, making love on the floor (while Abraham was watching a movie), Christel told me she was very concerned about the way Chris had been looking at her older daughter while they were working on homework.
Maybe she knew (and didn’t mind) that there was already something going on between Chris Rascon and her older daughter? By telling me, and maybe a few others, about her suspicions she was once again instinctively planting a seed that could be harvested later, if she needed to prove she had no complicity in helping them “hook up”…as these writings suggest, and that she obviously tried to do with her daughter and me.
Upon hearing this, I immediately began to wonder how long and how often was Christel leaving her older daughter alone with Chris?
Did the oldest daughter ever invite him into the bathroom while she was taking a bath, to attempt to seduce him, as she tried to do with me? But Christel is responsible for this questionable behavior, since she would invite her older daughter into our bed at night and invite the girls into the bath while we were taking a bath, and would often show them explicit pornography while the three of them were sitting on the couch(see Chapter 5).
The instant Christel told me about her suspicions about Chris and her daughter, as I listened to her phony outrage, I felt sick to my stomach…understanding exactly why it was that she picked this particular guy, Chris Rascon.
Imagine her surprise over the impossible possibility that her new boyfriend might have wanted to also sleep with this pretty little fifteen-year-old grand daughter, having already had sex with both her mother and grandmother!
This is why I was forced to sign a coerced plea bargain in 2004, which meant I never went to trial, where the truth would have been exposed. I suspect John Foote, the DA for cleckamas County, and his wife, Susan Upton, were responsible for manipulating Bob Hermann, the DA for Washington County (see Chapter 6).
How do you suppose America would feel to learn that E-Bay was founded on the concept of cheating, lying, and perversions. But this has always been this company’s standards under Whitman’s leadership. cheating uninformed people out of money, mostly the elderly and disabled, by selling them useless over priced junk?
Do you suppose exposing these two E-Bay fat cats for possibly being cheaters, thugs, perverts and liars might have given great concern to this Jewish billionaire, Meg Whitman, who apparently suddenly needed a quick “favor” from her Jewish “good friend, Senator Wyden, according to Wyden, who appeared on a local radio show and mentioned his favor to his good friend, Whitman. About a week later I was falsely imprisoned by Clackamas County Corrections on a bogus PV violation, to prevent me from testifying in Eugene against the Rascons and the E-Bay corporation, thanks to Senator Wyden.”

Dear (Senator Pham, Representative Chotzen, Commissioner Brim-Edwards, City Councilor Koyama Lane, City Councilor Morillo, City Councilor Novick:
I’m writing to plea for your help in stopping our landlord from making those of us here at Portland Pines RV and Mobil Home Park, living on a fixed income, homeless. Please support H.B. 3054.
For your information, , I will turn Sixty-five this year, am totally-blind, partially-deaf, and recovering from a stroke I had last April.
Today, February 4th, I received the third consecutive annual notice of a rent increase from the new landlord. Fortunately, the former landlord had only increased the rent three times in the last twenty years, so, along with my stroke and disabilities, the rent increase has been both stressful and financially burdensome. Especially more lately because of inflation.
Additionally, there has been very little improvements in the park itself, according to my care giver. Only one washer works, and none of the dryers work. I feel the explanation for the continuous increase in rent must be greed, and only a legislative body such as yourself can solve this problem.
Unfortunately, our previous landlord, Marilyn, died in 2022 and the park was quickly sold in early 2023 to an investment company from California, Monte Christo Communities Inc., which may explain why there are so many homeless people in California . When they bought the park, within days they immediately increased the rent by 10%, and have increased the rent every year since.
To further document their greed, shortly after they took over the park they passed out a new lease for tenants to sign, which stated that our rent would no longer include the cost of water, sewage, and trash removal (approximately $100 per month).
As you probably know, the Oregon Legislature passed a bill in 2023 that took effect immediately, making it unnecessary for long term current tenants to sign a new lease, except they never told me or as far as I know any of the other disabled and/or elderly renters that they were not obligated to sign. Except for coercion, there was no incentive or benefit for anyone to sign the new lease. It was clearly a deceptive business practice, and maybe even criminal, clearly attempting to take advantage of vulnerable people who wouldn’t or couldn’t question the manager’s request to sign the new lease.
Obviously, this corporation was aware of the 2023 Bill and by immediately printing and handing out to all the tenants a new lease weeks later, it shows a tremendous lack of respect toward both the work of the Oregon Legislature and the interests of the elderly and disabled people who live here.
At the time I wrote to a local attorney from the Portland Renters Association, Troy Pickard, and for your convenience have included my original E mail and his response to document this incident (attached below).
We need a law that either, requires landlords to, with a few exceptions, only increase the rent every other year by not more than 10%, or that requires landlords make sure the rent increase does not exceed the annual COLA amount, which is set by the Social Security Administration and as you probably know is based on the rate of inflation.
I feel this is the only reasonable solution that will protect both fair-minded landlords and responsible tenants. You should know, in the twenty-five years I have lived here at the park, I have never been late on my rent. I hope that mean something to somebody, or I may also end up being homeless in a few years.
You may know that living in a trailer park is as cheap as it gets, and most of us have no other choice. I’m asking the legislature to not let Oregon become another California. Please take steps to slow down the greed of these investment brokers from out of state, who apparently only see our home as an investment property.
Your time is very appreciated.
Sincerely,
Don Wolfe.

Hi Don,
My first thought is that you have no obligation to sign a new lease at all. In the good old days, a landlord could have just given you a no cause termination
notice even if you’d been living at the park for 13 years. Those days are over, and there is now a nice advantage for the tenant in just being month-to-month
rather than on a fixed-term lease, and very little downside.
So, you could just say: “Hey, I’m not particularly interested in signing a new lease right now. If you can explain how the new lease would be advantageous
to me, and you give me an accessible copy, then I’d be happy to consider it. Otherwise, I’ll pass.”
If that’s not the way you want to go, then you could certainly hire me to send them a scary letter demanding that they provide you with an accessible copy
of this proposed lease – but I’d be reluctant to have you pay me to do that, just so you can get your hands on this new proposed lease that you might not
even want in the first place.
If, after reading, you still think you want to hire me for the letter, let me know. My firm would charge you $600. Again, I’m skeptical about whether that’s
the right move.

Hello,
I am completely blind, partially deaf, and will turn 63 later this month. I’m looking for someone who can call me to discuss some questions I have about our new lease here at the park.
First, I’m having trouble getting the park manager to send me an accessible copy of the new lease, which is over forty pages long. I have requested twice for this accommodation but she is ignoring me. Can you help?
Below is a letter I sent last week with some other concerns about the changes in the lease which is supposed to take effect in October of 2023.
Thank you,
Don Wolfe
**************
August 22, 2023
Hello Debbie,
On August 22, 2023, My care giver, Vera, provided me with the new contract which I was unable to read, because as you know I’m completely blind.
Furthermore, spending a hour reading me a forty page contract is not within Vera’s purview, as my care giver.
As I have many questions and concerns about the terms of the contract, based on what you told Vera, I am troubled that I have no way to contact the California “investors directly.” And since you never answer your phone, which is understandable, and have not responded to my questions, sent to you by Vera on August 15th since I have no cell phone, I am not obligated to sign anything I can’t read myself or ask questions about.
Further, I’ve written to the Sacramento address previously provided twice and have received no reply, suggesting the address is a dead letter drop, presumably to protect the new owners from all liability.
Ignoring a tenant with a disability, since I have always paid my rent in full and on time every month, is very disrespectful. In fact, as you know one of these letters sent in April of this year included evidence that I was intentionally injured by a cement block placed in front of my gate by a private contractor of Portland Pines .
I request as an accommodation to my disabilities under the Americans with Disabilities Act that the voluminous contract be provided in a digital format, which should be available to the person who wrote this document. You can mail it to me here at the park, or give a disk with the information to Vera next Tuesday, August 29, 2023. Or to speed up things, you can E mail it to me directly at: drwolfe@wolfeout.com
Since I only check my E mail a couple times a week, unless you give it directly to Vera, it would be helpful to send her a text confirming that the information requested is being provided.
Please be advised, I will need at least a couple weeks to review the contract, and either sign it or provide a written response to the owners, which will probably take an additional couple weeks.
Your assistance is very appreciated.
Sincerely,
Don Wolfe

Hello,
I found your E mail online and I haven’t received a response from Deborah Sleeper, park Manager of Portland Pines, which is apparently one of your properties.
For your convenience, I’m attaching those E mails below.
While I only know the details of the new lease through my care giver and haven’t read it, I did seek the advice of a local attorney who deals with renter issues. He suggested I say the following with regard to signing a new lease, because of new renter laws in Oregon that give tenants more protection.
“I’m not particularly interested in signing a new lease right now. If you can explain how the new lease would be advantageous to me, and you give me an accessible copy, then I’d be happy to consider it. Otherwise, I’ll pass.”
Thank you, Don Wolfe, Lot 23

Hello Debbie,
I wanted to remind you that I need an accessible copy of the lease, preferably in RTF or TXT format. You or the owners can E mail it to me.
When is this supposed to be signed, since Vera never said?
It sure makes me suspicious that there may be other things in the lease the new owners don’t want me to know, until after I sign it. I’m wondering, do they expect my care giver to read all forty pages to me?
Thanks,
Don

Hi Ali,
hopefully, you remember me. If you have a few moments, I would like to bring two issues to your attention regarding the Portland Pines.
First, last week the water was shut off to make a few necessary repairs on the laundry room. This isn’t a problem. However, I was not notified until after the water was shut off, making it impossible to fill a bucket or jug. I called Shannon, the manager, and she reported the reason and told me that it would be shut off for a couple hours. Unfortunately, it was shut off for four hours and then after being briefly turned back on, it was shut off again until some time after I went to bed. The next morning, it was back on.
I understand emergencies may not allow for a prior notice, but I would assume this was not the case. In the future, please make sure the manager calls me directly in advance, if possible. Thank you.
On a different matter, last week Shannon told my substitute care giver that my fence was leaning and she was going to leave a note. When I called her about this issue, I explained speaking to me directly, rather than telling my care giver, and definitely leaving a note for a blind person, wouldn’t work very well. She said she understood. In addition, two weeks ago on a Friday evening around midnight, the man who drives a noisy diesel truck (Unit 26?) had struck my fence and drove off. It woke me up. This seems careless for a professional truck driver to have an accident and not check for damage, to his truck or my fence. If he was drinking, then for everyone’s safety he shouldn’t have been driving and maybe I should have called the police.
Nevertheless, I tried to straightened the fence and will have my care giver check it Monday, and if necessary, I will get some help from my regular care giver’s husband when they return in two weeks. I hope this will be okay. Please pass this information on to Shannon.
I look forward to working with both of you in resolving any problems. The telephone is always the best way to contact me, and remember it’s a land line, so I don’t receive text messages.
Thank you for your time.
Sincerely,,
Don Wolfe
