Friday August 20th

I hope all of you have had a wonderful day.

Here are some updates.

Merlin still needs a home. I just found out a few days ago that the home Merlin is in, with a loving and caring friend of Vanda’s is temporary. The generous woman already has two large dogs and two cats, and did not intend to keep Merlin permanently.

We are looking for someone who will love and care for Merlin for as long as he is around, preferably in this area; Lori would love to have “visitation rights” to see her friend's cat. He has been through a trying time and needs the stability of a permanent and loving home environment. All of those close to Vanda know how much she loved Merlin, and we want that love to continue with his new “human”. He has his own furnishings and is ready to move in.

Lori is working with the Crime Victims Advocate Office in Olympia. They advise and assist the survivors of such tragedies.
This week she has looked into legal representation, and possible funeral service options.

The Thurston County Coroners Office has not yet released Vanda’s body due to the circumstances of her passing, but it seemed prudent to have options for a service in place for when they do. We are not yet certain what type of service it might be, or when it might be; or even if there will be one, there are still so many unknowns.

The officials in Thurston County are also still searching for any relatives in Brazil, although they have been told numerous times and from all who new Vanda that she had no surviving relatives.
