Are you missing a Christmas tree ornament?

A gold Christmas tree ornament has been found attached to one of the trees which was left out for Sammamish Boy Scout troops to recycle on Saturday.
Luckily, Boy Scout leader John Evdemon and his wife Deb rescued the ornament from the chipper, which was where the trees were headed.
Deb told The Reporter that the ornament was a sleeping baby angel, engraved “Bryan Edward 1-15-85.”
“That puts the child at 24 years old – but a mom somewhere in Sammamish is missing it,” she said. “John saved it because he knows how upset I would be if I lost one of our kid’s ornaments.”
If you think the ornament might be yours, e-mail Deb at devdemon@rocketmail.com.
