Reader Kelly McGugan of Agoura Hills responded to Robert Walker’s editorial about “Lindero’s secret helper,” saying she also knows the person Walker described. McGugan lives on the opposite side of the lake from the spillway Walker mentioned and has watched the helper’s work there.
She says the area behind the lake, which leads to the pathway to the Target shopping center and is often used by teenagers, can get messy. On a daily basis she sees Kathleen gathering discarded Target carts in her driveway to return, picking up litter, scrubbing graffiti, securing stones so people can cross the water, blowing dirt and leaves, crawling through bushes to collect trash, brushing away debris to keep water flowing, and watering community plants.
McGugan adds that Kathleen does this without expecting praise but deserves recognition, and says several people would be glad to contribute if the paper ran a story. — Kelly McGugan, Agoura Hills
