I'm fairly new to this site, but having once lived in MC, it is bringing back many memories of places & people I knew back then. I'd like to add to this thread a wonderful couple whom I haven't seen mentioned yet - Ervin & Mildred Waldie from out on Moon Creek. They've been gone a few years now, but they were just the nicest people, & we always had fun visiting them either out on Moon Creek or the years they were on Tongue River - MANY, MANY happy memories...
Also, I might have missed his name, but I'd like to mention Pat Hirsh (class of '84?), my best friend's older brother who teased us unmercifully (it seemed) when we were in 1st & 2nd grade, but whom I'm glad I got to visit with after we were adults, as he was such a nice guy. My family was so sorry to hear of his loss in that accident - one more who died way too young...
The mention of Maggie DiBenedetto brought back some memories as well - we both worked at the Walmart in Tomah, Wisconsin, back in the early '90's. I remember when she first started working there, as I was surprised & happy to find out that she was from Miles City. Such a nice lady & always kind to everyone.
My deepest condolences go out to these families for their losses - all of them really wonderful people who I'm really glad I got to meet.
