Imogene Lamb Bolls, the late wife of Meadowlark Hills resident, Nathan Bolls, had five goals in life; to be a loving and devoted wife, a loving and patient mother, a trusted friend, a successful university professor of literature and writing and a published poet of note.

Q: What type of items can I donate to the Meadowlark Hills Market?
With the Meadowlark Hills Market fast approaching this is an appropriate question!
The Meadowlark Hills Market accepts a wide variety of items such as gently-used furniture, vintage clothing, small appliances, handmade items, home décor, pictures, painting, books, records, holiday decorations, etc. The only thing we do not ask for is any clothing that was produced after 1980.

Education was considered highly important in the eyes of John Mann’s late wife, Phyllis Marie Walsten Mann.
Phyllis attended a one-room country school in Reno County. She completed her high school education at Hutchinson High School and then completed a pre-nursing program at the community college. In 1951, she received her bachelors of science in nursing from the University of Kansas, then was employed at KU Medical Center. She took a short leave of absence in 1961 to earn her masters of nursing from the University of Washington in Seattle.
A few weeks ago I answered a question about where I had been while I was out of the office and what I had been working on. I explained the work I have been doing in writing a manual and recently giving a presentation with Pam Kramer, the President of ITP International Inc. Pam is a successful performance consultant, career specialist and executive coach with a master's degree in Counseling in Career and Organizational Development.
