Letter: Abducted grandmother thanks community for help and thoughts

I would like to thank the many people who have been so thoughtful of me throughout this very trying time. I will never understand why. I’m just very thankful me and Tessa are back in our home uninjured, and hopefully safe from something like this again.

I appreciate the many calls, visits and the police both here and in Oregon. They have been so good to me.

Thank you.

Hazel Abel, Kennewick
