Personal / Human Interest Story Out Of Williston, North Dakota -- A Teacher That Would Have Touched Many Williston Students -- August 24, 2016

From The Williston Herald:
A donation from the family of a beloved Williston music teacher will help pay for a piano and other needs for the Bakken Elementary band. 
Members of Kathleen Hovde’s family presented a $10,000 check to school administrators Monday morning at the school.
Hovde, 69, died on Memorial Day as a result of an ATV crash on her ranch near Epping.
She taught music for more than 40 years in northeast Montana and at Lewis and Clark and Wilkinson elementaries in Williston.
Hovde came out of retirement to teach at Rickard Elementary last year, and was planning on returning to the school this fall.
At 69 years of age. Good for her. A very sad, but truly touching story.
