Fremont, NE Saturday, January 12, 2013 I was the Media Specialist at Grant School when Fauneil was the library paraprofessional there. I could always depend on her to do her job and do it well. She cared for the children and it showed. In addition to work, we shared a love of books, especially cookbooks, and enjoyed sharing recipes.Pat Haddican
Minneapolis, MN Friday, January 11, 2013 I was a friend of Wendy's during high school and college and remember Mrs. Buettow with fondness. She was a spirited and kind person who always took the time to stop and have a chat with my parents on her daily walks in the neighborhood. I know she is at peace with Wendy.
