Dear Frances,
The City of Port Angeles was deeply saddened to hear about the passing of Hazel
Sampson. I recognize the value of her knowledge and cultural experience was
immeasurable. Together as a community we can take pride in the gifts that she passed
along by sharing the Klallam language with younger generations. The Klallam dictionary
and integration of local Klallam school programs serves to benefit us all by enriching our
community with culture.
On behalf of the City staff and elected officials, I extend our deepest condolences on your
loss. I hope that you all can find peace in knowing that Hazel's contributions have
positively impacted this community for generations to come. Please do not hesitate to let
me know if there is anything the City can do to support you during this difficult time.
Sincerely,
Dan Di Cuilio
Mayor
