Fund set up for son of DOC member Michelle Dykes

A memorial fund has been set up at the Washington State Employees Credit Union for the son of Michelle Dykes, the Department of Corrections Local 53 member who died July 26 from injuries suffered in a July 21 motorcycle crash at the I-5/SR 101 interchange in Tumwater.

Michelle, 39, was a Community Corrections officer 2 in Tacoma and 10-year member of the Federation.

You can go to any WSECU branch and make a contribution to the fund, which is in Michelle Dykes’ name.

The entire Federation family mourns this tragic loss of a good DOC employee and Federation member and encourages members to contribute to the memorial fund.
