She grew up in Fraser and spent her childhood listening to stories from old timers at Clayton\u2019s Cafe and Bar, where she fell in love with music and learned piano and guitar. She raised two children, doted on a granddaughter, read every book in the library, enjoyed the company of animals and some people, and didn\u2019t hesitate to tell you how she felt about things. Now she\u2019s singing songs and playing cards with her sister, Charlene, and sharing homemade pie with her parents, Chuck and Elsie. A memorial service will be held this summer when the meadows are green, the willows full of songbirds and the god***n snow is gone. If you would like to honor her memory, please feel free to make a donation to the Fraser Cemetery Association or Friends of the Fraser Library.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div readability=\"11.368068833652\">\n<div class=\"col-xl-7 pt-3 pb-4 pr-4 pl-4\" readability=\"17.792307692308\"> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.skyhinews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/9\/2020\/02\/shn-logo-2x-wht.png\" class=\"logo\"><\/p>\n<p><strong>Readers around Grand County make the Sky-Hi News&#8217; work possible.
