Beth has been part of my life for my whole life. She was my mother's roommate at U of M. My mother, Marilyn Pratt, corresponded with Beth when they lived apart, and visited when they lived close together . I was fortunate to visit Beth when I lived in The Pas, and had several visits in Winnipeg after my mom passed away in 1999. My best wishes to her family.

Mrs. Butcher was my Home Ec. teacher way back in grade 7. She was strict but passionate about teaching her students the basics of food preparation. Her dedication to her calling has made many, many students over the years great cooks and bakers! Too often we forget to acknowledge those key people who educated us to become well-rounded adults. p.s. I still remember the egg flipper versus spatula debate. Who knew Home Ec. could create such controversy!
