Lawson slows campaigning

Ron Lawson, candidate for re-election to the Lacey City Council, has slowed his campaigning for re-election to take care of his ill wife.

Lawson, in an e-mail to supporters, said his wife had become ill with a respiratory infection and needs his attention.  “Care for loved ones supersedes other commitments,” he said.   “My complete attention is focused on  helping Jane recover and get better.”

He apologized for missing appointments.

“I should be back on a more reliable track in a week,” he said.
