In the midst of coordinating both of her parents’ funerals, we thank this beloved woman for Feel Good Friday

EastIdahoNews.com and Ashley Furniture HomeStore are teaming up every week to bring you some good news during Feel Good Friday!

We want to thank people in our community with random acts of kindness and leave you feeling good.

Gerrolyn Anderson has influenced countless people in eastern Idaho over the years. She recently retired after teaching school for 41 years, she maintains a large garden and shares the produce with strangers and the homeless, and she’s actively involved in a community choir and other organizations.

Gerrolyn recently retired to take care of her parents but both of them passed away within eight days of each other earlier this month.
