On this BONUS EPISODE of CASCADE OF HISTORY, Feliks Banel speaks with Randall Adams with an update on the saga of the City of Sumner, Washington - the same city that last week tore down the Ryan House - where city officials had announced a give-away of park benches, many with memorial plaques still attached.

Tuesday, July 29, 2025 was bench and plaque give-away day, and Randall Adams was there, bright and early, at Sumner City Hall, wearing his SUMNER SPARTANS t-shirt and vintage SUMNER SPARTANS football helmet - all to make sure that the bench dedicated to his late friend Danny Crook would end up in a good home. Randall Adams shares the story of what happened in this bonus episode.

CASCADE OF HISTORY reached out to City of Sumner spokesperson Carmen Palmer late on the afternoon of Thursday, July 24, 2025. She declined a phone interview and offered to try to answer questions via email instead. We also share some of her answers in this episode, too.
