Adrienne, thank you! Family, thank you.
What a worker in everything she did! I met her at Good Shepherd or perhaps before. Your father delivered propane to our farm; always nice visits with Richard.

I am deeply saddened to hear of all your loss. Saying goodbye is never easy. I know she is reunited with her husband, Richard and she is celebrating with all her loved ones that passed before her. She is rejoicing with our Heavenly Father. She was such a beautiful lady, inside and outside. She was always so sweet. I loved visiting with her whenever I got the chance. Cherish all your memories and keep them close to your hearts. She is always with you, she is guiding you through this thing we call life. Gods garden received a beautiful soul.
RIP Adrienne

Jeri and Jon, my sincere sympathy to you and your families. Adrienne was a wonderful lady and a dear friend since our days of working together at the James Memorial Library and the Williston Community Library. Her attention to detail was unmatched as evidenced by the books and articles she published. May you find comfort in the fact that those who knew her loved her very much.

Jeri, so sorry for the loss of your mother. She was a great genealogist and a lot of her knowledge of western North Dakota she wrote down for future generations to enjoy and learn from. Take care of yourself. Karen Quick

I enjoyed work with Adrienne at the James Memorial Library. Adrienne was one of the first people I met when we moved to Williston. Adrienne was a kind, knowledgeable, interesting, gentle Lady. Williston has lost an icon. Williston will miss her. R.I.P. Adrienne, Williston will miss you.

To Jeri, John, Wanda & Bubba, sorry to hear of the loss of Tubba. I knew Ritchie & Tubba she was a sister to Wanda Monson whom I grew up around. Then after spending 25 years on The Rural Fire Dept, after Ritchie’s’ time on the Rural Dept, I reached out to Tubba a few years ago about identifying some old fire dept pictures, she invited me over to her house and I spent at least a couple hours going thru old fire dept articles she had collected over the years, best couple of hours I ever spent. She was a wealth of knowledge and resources. She was really excited because she had just published a book, waiting on the printed copies. It was an honor to know her and the vast knowledge she had.. Thoughts and prayers to the family. Dave Arnson

She was a special lady. I am going to miss her. She helped with me with my ancestry journey, and it was a blessing to visit with her at Bethel and share communion.
