Loren (Sonny) Dubois Passed away this morning with Covid
Message from Dennis Dubois (’63): Minneapolis, Mn

Dennis Dubois messaged me this morning that his brother Loren (Sonny) passed away this morning with Covid. He was a resident at the Good Samaritan Home in Bottineau. He was recently in a Minot Hospital for a week. When he returned to Good Sam he tested negative for Covid. While in Quarantine after returning from the Minot hospital, he became covid positive. Bottineau didn’t have a facility for him being positive, so they transferred him to Minneapolis several days ago where he died. Being Covid, his remains will be cremated.

I understand that a lot of the good Samaritan Staff and residence have tested covid positive. The number I heard was 31 total. Also I heard of one positive that I know in Dunseith too.

We extend our condolences to Sonny’s family with his passing. It’s trying times for his children with his passing.

Ginger, yes I read a lot, have never owned a TV. YOU may recall that I went through HS like a breeze but when I was in the car accident that took Earl Hiatt’s life on 12/30/65 ALL of that information was wiped away. I was able to make my first try to go to college in March of 1969; it took three attempts to succeed. In 101 English Composition, the teacher asked me how, with such a great HS record, I was not able to write. I told her what had occurred and she apologized. I sent her a copy of first Master degree thesis; it had more than 100 pages.  This masters was in Public Health. SNUF Tanks for YOUR ear.  Lee (Stick)
