Cam is Glen and Edna (Susie Knox) Millang’s son — has one brother Kip. Sherri attended Dunseith until 8 th grade when we transfered her to Bottineau. If memory serves me correctly Cam also attended Dunseith and transfered to Bottineau to graduate. Mel’s CRS is very catchy and seems to spread quickly. lol |

Hello Mr. Stokes,
Here is a photo of the Salem Lutheran Church I snapped today while driving up to Lake Metigoshe. It was a beautiful day up in the hills today.

Jeff, Thank you so much for this beautiful winter scene of Salem church. This church brings back a lot of childhood memories for me and also for a lot of our readers. My name, with a lot of others, is still posted on the Sunday School attendance roster in the back of the church. Salem Church is and always has been part of the Metigoshe Lutheran churches.
Folks, Salem church is located about 2 1/2 miles west of the Rolette/Bottineau county line on #43 also known as the Peace Garden or Metigoshe road. It is open to the public in the summer months. Glen Rude has the keys and is kind of the caretaker. He lives on the Albert Rude Home place located about 1/8 of a mile east and on the south side of the road from the church. Gary
Do any of you recognize either of these two ladies? A friend of ours from Bremerton WA. was visiting the Peace Garden last summer when she met these two ladies. They knew me, so she took their picture. She lost the paper with their names. Like I mentioned before, most of us change over the years and I just don’t recognize these gals. Gary
