The photo of the handmade sign and snapdragons planted near the corner of Boy Scout Road and Highway 83 by a light pole was missing a bit of information in last week's Pathfinder. Zelda Haines wanted to make sure that Cole and Keanna Henrekin were given credit for their contributions.
Cole made the sign in his shop, Peak Fabrication, and donated it in memory of Zelda's husband, Kim, who was a principal at Seeley-Swan High School and a beloved track and field coach before he lost his battle with cancer in 2013.
Zelda said the memorial was installed sometime near the beginning of August. The flowers, which she chose since the deer don't seem to like them, didn't bloom until Aug. 1.
Zelda offered her profound thanks for the beautiful sign Cole donated in memory of her husband.
