Funny Story: I was in Brookings SD when Kelby Krabbenhoff was elected to Sandford as their hospital administrator and CEO. I told my husband I went to school with Kelby and he sat in my English class. We were reading “Giants of the Earth” and we had reached the part where the farmers wife, living in a sod house, just lost their crops to locus and went insane. The English teacher asked the class why did the farmers wife go insane? She walked up and down the aisle and kept asking why did his wife go insane? Kelby, blurted out “ She had a grasshopper up her butt”! And I remember laughing so damn hard. This is is a good quality for a CEO… having a sense of humor.

My career was college SDSU BSME and MBA Rockhurst.
I worked most of my life as an engineer with welders and manufacturing. But I did spend 10 years working in the defense sector at a large plant with 8,000 employees, making obscene wages. I asked my manager why I didn’t have any work. This man, who came from the private sector, told me his old company (GM) could do the work of this defense contractor, with 200 employees. The 7800 cost plus employees (with no work) are nothing but pimps and prostitutes for central bankers (probably working for Epstein) So for 10 years I sat and did nothing and my salary allowed Wall Street to make obscene profits, which destroyed the real economy and our middle class. This is something I am not proud of, as I was raised to be honest and have integrity. My biggest regret in my life and I can’t change it.
