I met Korrene many years ago when we started the Cub Scout Program at the Clancy School. What a joy to know that someone was interested in providing the Scouting program again at the school. I enjoyed working with your family and other Clancy people that took the reins and built a great Scouting program. My deepest sympathy to you all. Korreen was one of a kind.
She will be missed. God bless you all.
