RIP 🕊🕊🕊
RIP Mish!
KMUD, the Hospice, the Mateel, Dazeys, Mountain Message Service, these are just a few of the things that Mish helped build. So long sis.
❤️ it’s been years since we last connected but memories of mud splashed roads and her cozy cabin to seeking refuge from the rain at her Ruby Valley home remain. Mish always welcomed.
Rest easy old friend.
