Dear Smoke Signals: During the snow and ice, Julie Davis, our pharmacist, went beyond the call of duty to get all of the medicines that needed filled. Her husband, Mike, drove her down to the clinic so she could fill these medicines. Then she dropped them off at the lodge, where many of us went to stay, on her way home. Also thanks to her help in there for helping her during that week when everything was closed. They need to be recognized in some way to show our appreciation for this. Thanks again, Julie and crew.
