Paul’s People, No. 12

Jeri is holding an award she received from the airline after 23 years of excellent work.

This is my friend Jeri Hershberger. Her name has appeared in The Slice many times.

I first met her in person out at the airport when she worked for Northwest. And I once bumped into Jeri and her sister at the old Jones drug store on the South Hill. I noted the family resemblance and they said they hear that a lot, even though the truth is one of them (I can’t remember which) was adopted.

She grew up here and I always enjoy her recollections of 1960s Spokane.

She has been to more rock concerts in more cities than anyone I know.

But I like her because she has a good heart.
