Talk of the Town: August 7, 2023

Candy Jensen is doing fine at home following surgery last Monday in Bismarck. She has been getting get-well calls and visits from family and friends: Terry and Sandy Koepplin along with Rick, Cora and Katie Koepplin; and sons Derik and Val Holte of Minneapolis and Jerrod and Angie Holte of Mapleton.

A helper this past week at the Shirley Packard home has been Mary Gehrtz. Kevin Johnson and Calvin Packard are daily helpers.

Ken and Marvis Holte enjoyed Sunday phone calls from sons James Birkholz of Minot and Loren Holte and family from Bismarck, as well as Marvis' sister, Penny of Minneapolis. The calls were filled with 79th birthday wishes for Marvis.

Ryan and Laura Hager and family and Gary and Kathy Anderson drove to Rugby Saturday where they attended the funeral service for Ryan's grandmother, Ann Hager.

Sunday visitors at the Ken and Marvis Holte home were daughter Amanda Bickett and Holly Zieman.
