dinner, ask for advice, or even stay for extended periods of time. Family was more than just

blood relatives.

board and was a long-time member of the Lionbackers. Prior to graduating she worked for the

US Postal Service and had her own tax business. After graduation she worked for Empire

on the Carl Junction City Council.
