— from Jack B. Coe, Esq. —
Having managed lawyers with some of the largest law firms in Seattle and across the Nation, I can say with first-hand certainty that Randy Gaylord has put together a highly competent, professional, effective and seamless team of prosecutors and support staff that exhibits legal skill and acumen on par with any I have experienced throughout my legal career.
Additionally, and perhaps more importantly, Randy and his team reflect the attitudes and standards consistent with those of the community which he represents. As long-time residents of the County, Randy and his family are our friends and neighbors, active in many local organizations and activities, and genuinely care about the safety and well-being of us all.
It is this combination of professionalism, tempered by a well-seasoned understanding and appreciation of the unique island community which he serves, that causes me to lend my whole-hearted support to Randy Gaylord for re-election to the Office of San Juan County Prosecutor.

Thank you. I think Randy Gaylord has the nuanced understanding of what makes a community like ours cohesive, and a draw to the people who encounter our special island communities. I’ll always be grateful for his help and support in our gaining local control of our garbage and recycling; I think that was one of Orcas Island’s finest moments in my 37 years of living here – and look at the precedent that hard working people of ORS has set. I want a P.A. who understands and supports the intelligence, creativity, and “can do” spirit of this community. Randy has those qualities and has proven it over time.
