Letter: Traveling trophy honors basketball player

Posted

She was a very special person.

I wanted to thank Port Townsend and Chimacum school districts for continuing with the Janelle Perillo traveling trophy every year. My wife and I were at her last basketball game at Chimacum High School.

She was like a daughter to me, fishing partner, friend. She once told me, “I’m not just anybody, I plan on being the president of the United States one day!”

If cancer wouldn’t have taken her, I believe she might have some day.

Never forgotten. We will always love and miss her.
