Williston lost a treasure

To the editor:
A recent passing in our community occurred without even a nod of acknowledgment.
On Thursday, Dec. 30, 2010, “Ms. Rebecca” of Pesso’s Hardware lost a year-long battle against cancer.
She ran Pesso’s Hardware for many years. She was well known by the community. She shared her extensive knowledge of farming, animal, plant and garden care with her customers. Many cared about her and stopped into the store to visit as much as to purchase and ask questions.
To have her death go by without acknowledgement is a tragedy and an insult to those who knew her.
