Josephine Poitra’s Death.
Condolences from Margaret Leonard Casavant (’65): Rolette, ND

So sorry to hear of Josephine’s death. I have enjoyed knowing this beautiful lady for the past 6 years in the Rolette Care Center.  She had the sweetest spirit and
the warmest smile.  She raised a wonderful family!  Ginger, you were blessed to have her for your mother-in-law!

The Care Center won’t be the same without her gentle spirit!!  My deepest, heartfelt sympathy to your family, Margaret

Dorothy Pritchard: Long Term at St. Andrews hospital, Bottineau, ND

Mary Eurich Knutson’s (62) reply to Gary: Dunseith, ND.

Hi Gary

Yes Dorothy is receiving your newsletters. She really appreciates them. As you know she didn’t grow up in Dunseith so the later pictures mean more to her than the older ones. She was a little under the weather for a couple of weeks. Thats the first time I had ever seen her not feeling well. She seemed more perky now on Saturday. I took her up to Mystic Horizons just a drive to get her out of the hospital for a little while. Take care!!

Mary Knutson

Mary, you are a lady with a heart of gold and a whole lot of patients. I know Dorothy will agree with me 100% on this one too.

Dorothy, We are so glad that you are getting these daily messages. If in the future you ever want to make any replies, I know the staff at St. Andrews will be glad to do so for you. All they have to do is hit the reply button to anyone of these messages and start typing and I will get the message.

Folks, For those of you wishing to send Dorothy a personal message, Just type “Attention Dorothy Pritchard” in the subject line and she will get it. Her email address is Gary

Hi Gary: I have really enjoyed your blog. I can truthfully say that I do not remember a lot of the people but today when Florence Hiatt Dahl wrote, it brought back memories. We went to school together (I left before graduation as I thought at the time it was more important to get married than to graduate High School. I corrected that later, but now marrried for 58 years, it seems like yesterday. My husband Maurice Marchand are planning a trip to ND in August (God willing0. as I am looking forward to visiting with my brother Emery Carbonneau and family and a stop by Fargo to see my sister Rita Anderson. Keep up the good work and I sure wish we could have taken that trip to Alaska as it sounds like it will be great. Keep up the good work.

Hi Everyone,

As you can see, I’ve been looking at old newspapers again. I didn’t want to cut the Kelvin news from the Courant to scan it, so I included the “extra” material, too.

I learned something from this column. I have a difficult time remembering Thelma Johnson’s/Dorothy Halvorson’s/Mrs. Medrud’s maiden name. A short while ago, I read their name again. After reading this column, I see their parents are M/M Sigurd Christianson. Maybe I can remember that now–or not!
