Neola’s mother is not doing well.
 
 
 
Message from Wally Garbe (Neola’s Husband): Minot, ND
 
I just finished talking to Neola this evening. She said that they are moving her mom to the Hospice room at the nursing home. They are also going to quit giving her pills as she has a tough time swallowing.

Mom was moved to a hospice room at Good Sam (Room 301) this morning. I’ve packed a couple of “stay awhile” bags and will go to Good Sam as soon as I’m ready.
 
Thanks for ALL the prayers–they are working. :)

Hi Gary,
 
I found it interesting that on Tuesday night, September 21, “Mom’s” wing was staffed by Dunseith people: Eileen Nelson, Janice Rispa and Leola Lagerquist’s granddaughter, Gayle/Gail Peterson. Neat.

Neola, This is neat that your mothers wing was staffed with Dunseith folks.
Neola, Our thoughts and prayers are with you, Jim and your Mother. Emma Brudwick Kofoid is so blessed to have a Neola Kofoid Garbe as her daughter. You are there for her every step of the way. Gary

Hi Gary…

The scanner here in my office doesn’t work so well, but here is an article that I noticed today in a CBP publication that comes out regularly and thought I would share. I hope the photos come through at least somewhat recognizable! The Joe Evans that Leely Evans is married to is the son of Dunseith’s own Joe & Joyce Evans!! What a great story.

Folks, Please see attachment article. I was unable to copy and past this article so I am sending it as an attachment.
 
Paula, What a touching story. Thank you so much for sharing.
 
Leely, This is so thoughtful of you for doing this for your friend. This shows the true character of who you are. You are indeed a wonderful person. Having Orvin Hagen for an Uncle along with all the rest of the Hagen family, we know you guys are good folks. Joe’s parents, Joe (deceased) and Joyce Hagen Evans are wonderful folks. The Dunseith community remembers them well. Gary

Gary, I attached a picture of Dottie Jury. Is this the person someone was inquiring about. If so, she is on facebook.
