Glendora Nelson Jolly, 92, of East Wenatchee, passed away peacefully on

She was a 50-plus year resident of Peshastin, WA, and a 20-plus year resident
of East Wenatchee. She was also a 50-plus year member of the Chumstick Grange

children: Karen and Ron. She was an assistant cook for the Peshastin-Dryden
School District for many years, and also worked for several area warehouses.
She loved collecting M&M figures, garage sales, and crocheting. She
