I worked with her in the kitchen and it always was a fun day when she was cooking. I had run into her a few times at the store a while back and we chatted for a bit, she still had her sense of humour that I remember from back in the 80's. So sorry for your loss, Nancy - Posted by: Nancy Isfjord Kumps (co worker at Betel) on: Jun 24, 2018
