City Council to honor Will Parry

By Robby Stern


We invite all PSARA members and supporters to the Seattle City Council Chambers at 2 p.m. Monday, July 19. At that time, the Council will read and pass a resolution honoring our beloved President Emeritus and Editor of the Retiree Advocate, Will Parry.

This public recognition of Will is richly deserved. Will has been an optimistic and determined advocate for progressive change for more than six decades. His leadership has sustained PSARA as a vibrant and cutting edge force in our community.

We are pleased that the Seattle City Council is recognizing Will’s continuous effort to make our community, our state, our country and our world a kinder and more just place. Join us in the Seattle City Council Chambers to support one of our own as he receives the public recognition he rightfully deserves.

Will Parry’s 90th birthday

An insert in this issue of The Retiree Advocate invites you to join the party Saturday, April 24, at the Best Western Executive Inn in Seattle, as Will Parry reaches the venerable age of 90.
The program will honor Will for his seven decades of work for social and economic justice. Music will be provided by Will’s son, Jon Parry, on fiddle, and John Nelson on guitar, and by the uplifting melodies of Rebel Voices, featuring Susan Lewis and Janet Stecher.
Please use the reservation form either to reserve your individual seat for $50; or to become a Table Captain by reserving a table of ten; or to become a PSARA Builder by both reserving a table of ten and making an additional contribution to cover the cost of the event and to advance the work of the Puget Sound Alliance for Retired Americans.
Scholarships are available for those who find $50 too steep. Please fill out and mail the form to PSARA, 2800 First Ave., Room 262, Seattle 98121.
We’re looking for a volunteer to videotape the party. Call PSARA, (206) 448-9646, to volunteer, or to suggest someone. If you’d like to help arrange a display of Will’s life and times, contact Rachael Levine at levinepr@comcast.net.
