Pat Kuhl Cain now serving a church in Villard

(Pat Kuhl Cain checked in about three months ago and promised the Trailboss some info about herself. She is a woman of her word. She writes: -- Trailboss)

After graduation I went to college in Kansas for a year and then transferred to Concordia College (now University) St. Paul and graduated with a BA in elementary education. I taught off and on for several years and ended up actually doing more years in preschool.
My husband (Larry), a teacher, principal, youth director, and now a pastor, and I live in Villard, only a few miles from Jackie (Kalina) Turk.

Sheltered life?
Larry and I serve a church in Villard and one in Grove Lake, a place I never knew existed until we moved here! And after reading some of the wonderful contributions from others, I really must have led a sheltered life in high school!
We have three children (ages 33, 31, 27) and six grandchildren, ranging in age from eight months to nine years. If I had a picture of them all I'd send it along (once I learned how) since they are definitely the cutest grandkids! They all live in the Wright - Duluth area.
We've lived in too many houses to remember but other than five years teaching north of Detroit, Michigan years ago and one year in Indiana when Larry returned to seminary, we've lived in Minnesota -- Chaska, Minneapolis, Excelsior, Fairmont, Pipestone and now Villard.
As reported earlier, I'm working for the "enemy", the Minnewaska School System (of which Glenwood is a part). I'm in the counseling department as an administrative assistant.
My "other" jobs at church are the most enjoyable, however -- playing organ and working with choirs. Bev (Roers) Korkowski and I have kept in touch over the years so keep up on some news, but it'll be fun to get together and see how none of us have changed!!!!! It can't be 40 years already!
Keep up the good work, Stan!
