Candie lives in Pocatello with her husband Don, her mother-in-law Betty and three dogs. She worked as the office administrator for six years, retiring in 2018. Because she knows the job and loves the people she came back to fill in until a suitable replacement for Kaitlyn could be found. Candie likes to read, knit, crochet, and piece quilts. She will be in the office on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday weather permitting. You can almost always reach her on the Presbytery's phone (208-242-3800), though occasionally life takes over, so leave a message and she will get back to you as soon as possible.
