Peter Krogh had known many joys in his 93 years of life, but none had been so rewarding or fulfilling as the happiness he now found helping children learn. He was a volunteer tutor in Mickie Gundersen’s special-education class at Evergreen Middle School. Gundersen said Krogh was spry, witty, soft-spoken, gentle, kind and caring.
Wright’s Food &Beverage Parlors was having a grand opening. Located at 10020 Evergreen Way South, they were open 24 hours a day.
