In the early 70's we would drive by the mansion and felt sad to see such a once beautiful old place, with a trailer in back, in such disarray and hoped that someday it could be brought back to the days when the Conrads lived there.  So when it began to come back to life with the help of so many and Sam Bibler and his crew we kept close tags on it and watched it develop into the stately and proud place it is today.  I am very happy and proud to be a part of the mansion today.  

For 27 years I taught at Central School in Whitefish, I really did love to teach, but as the years passed and my workload increased (I taught English and Lit.) mounds of papers to correct  and seeing about 120 different students a day, I thought it was now time to hang it up...but, I still miss it. In all the years we lived in Whitefish we took advantage of down hill skiing, cross country, hiking, boating etc. until we decided a few years ago to spend 5 months in the winter down in Green Valley, Arizona.
