Mrs. Dancho was the best! I am a Bunnell graduate- that is how I knew her. She was always kind and always smiling. Recently myself and other Bunnell graduates bumped into her at the Riverdale diner, before she realized she knew us, she was visiting our table b/c she wanted to say hello to baby Cole, b/c that is the friendly person she was. It was so nice to see her after 15 years+! I am very sorry for your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with her loved ones during this difficult time.
