Shelver Drug Store
Reply from Don Aird: St. Louis, MO
My Mother, Clarissa Carlson Aird, worked in the Shelver Drug store and lived in the above apartment. I was born in Bottineau then spent the first three years of my life in that apartment. That’s where Dad found them when he returned from Europe at the end of WW II.

I hope you and your family are doing well.
We are doing fine here in the Dakotas.
There has been a little bit of a nip in the air lately to warn us of what is to come.
But, for right now, a light jacket and it feels great.
My favorite time of the year.
A lot of apples this year and you know what that means – pie. Can’t wait.
Oh Gary, just to let you know, The rhubarb was also exceptional this year.
To bad Marco Polo didn’t make it over to the Philippines.
I guess camels can’t swim, that is what Mel told me anyway.
The real reason I had to write was to let you know, that the Grandkids are all doing great and send you a few pictures.
Proud Grandparents,
Marion and Larry
Grand-daughters are royalty. Sadie was Queen at the Velva High School Homecoming, daughter of my son Larry and his wife Lynn,
and Madison was a Princess at the Hazen High School Homecoming, daughter of my daughter Angie and her husband Scott.
Great job girls. and below them is a article on my grandson Nate, son of my daughter Angie and her husband Scott.

The grandson also does great.

From Dick Johnson (68):
Gary,
I think the unidentified man in the back row might be Clarence
Christianson. Row two is ‘ Gladys’ Henning then possibly Mrs.
Christianson. The gal by Joan I don’t know, she may have been a bank
employee or a teachers wife?? I may not be right here so we will see if
someone else knows for sure. Thanks!
Dick

Picture/Message from Neola Kofoid Garbe:
Gary,
This is a LARGE picture: 16″ X 20″. I checked the Turtle Mt. phone book, but no Tom is listed. Do the Boguslawski’s in your email lists know where Tom/Carolyn live? It might be expensive to mail, but if I can deliver it locally, I’d be happy to do so. Or if someone in the Dunseith area would like to pick it up when I finally get the pictures to Dunseith, I’d be happy to include it in “the box”.
Thanks to your email lists, Gary, and the courthouse pictures, I have now met Angela Berube Malget and her husband, Greg–If I’ve misnamed you, Greg, I’m sorry; I can’t locate the email that contains your name. After meeting me, I know you have no problem believing this! Ha! We met in Bottineau yesterday. I was able to give Fern’s and Edward Berube’s pictures to Angela in person. What fun!!!

From Bob Lykins (DHS teacher in the mid 60’s):
Gary,
I hope this goes through and people are able to access the story and photo gallery. Although most people on the Dunseith list do not know my daughter, Carrie, her story is one that everyone should be aware of as “baby shake” occurs all to frequently, not only in our country, but across the world. It is a condition that is caused by a crime of violence perpetrated in most cases by the father. My former son-in-law was and, I guess, still is a nice guy. But, he made a terrible mistake and for a moment lost his cool, shook my grand-daughter, and forever changed our world for the worst.
The main story appeared in last Tuesday’s (Ju;ly 22nd) USA Today paper. The “baby shake” story was also made a lead in USA Today’s website (given below). I talked with Carrie the other day and she said her boys were tickeled to see a picture of their mom and Winter in the banner at the top of the front page of USA Today sandwiched between Payton Manning and the Joker. Care has, in the past, along with Winter traveled far and wide lecturing about “baby shake” and how to prevent it. Unfortunately, Winter’s present condition prevents her from traveling great distances and so they limit their activities to around Syracuse, Utah where Care’s husband is stationed at Hill AFB.
While my daughter, Carrie, credits my grand-daughter, Winter’s will to live to her strong soul. I believe it is as much a credit to my daughter’s incredable strength of, love, and dedication to her daughter that has given Winter a longer life than expected.
Gary, I send this message to you to distribute far and wide in the hope that people will read their story and if, in doing so, it saves one little child from being shaken, well, just think how powerful that would be. Maybe, just maybe, all of the pain and loss of quality of life Winter has suffered, all of the heartache my daughter has endured, and all of the sadness my family has carried over the years will have been worth it.
Bob Lykins
> Carrie and Winter are part of a big USA Today story on “baby shake.” In the newspaper they could not get everything in so they made the story a lead on their web-site. The second site listed below has their photos. You can also access the photos by clicking on “PHOTO GALLERY” in the story. I wonder if it made the international edition. I guess it is on page 5 of the national edition. It came out on Tuesday. After viewing the photos and seeing what Carrie had to say, I must confess I shed a few tears. Through it all Care has shown such great courage. She has been and continues to be a wonderful daughter.
Bob
