Farewell, Zoe… you will be missed!

Zoe Knuff, has retired after 17 years as an assistant librarian at the Revelstoke branch of the Okanagan Regional Library.

Loved by just about everyone who knew her, Zoe was especially appreciated by young children on whom she practiced her excellent storytelling skills.

Dozens of people attended a farewell party held at the library on Friday. Here are a few photos from the event:
