To the Editor:
There is so much negative news now, I want to tell you about a pleasant experience I had at the Marshfield Clinic here in Merrill.
My name was called, and a woman met me at the entrance where blood is drawn. As she took my jacket, she asked my name. When I told her she said, “My name is Jo Ann, too.”
I commented on her nice necklace. She said “I got it at a ‘pow wow.’”
