Tribal role in search is acknowledged

Editor:

Thank you for publishing my thank you letter entitled "Mother appreciates search efforts for drowning victim," as well as my son Denny's obituary in the Sept. 1 issue of your newspaper. My family and I are most obliged.

In my letter thanking the officials and volunteers of Lake and Flathead counties, I inadvertently neglected to also thank officials of the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes, who also participated faithfully in the search and recovery effort. I am embarrassed about this oversight, and would be further obliged if you would see fit to publish this brief attached letter recognizing the Tribes for their efforts also. Thank you.
