Coming Home to Kansas

Marion gossip

This might be old news to some of you.

I guess it's pretty sad, but I'm not going to lie about it. My initial reaction was to shriek with laughter/disbelief when Paula told me about it.

Allison Ford (Schults now) was the president of an organization that was like PTA or something, but not called PTA. And it just came to light that she embezzled about $6,000. I guess the treasurer was kind of slow in figuring it out that there was something going on with the money, and mom tried to be all "innocent until proven guilty" but then she told me the day after it was found out, Allison had a sick day and it was announced that she had resigned, but she also wrote a letter in which she basically admitted to it and apologized.

(She always did like writing dramatic letters.)

I had a long and complex relationship with her, as you might know. If not, I'm sure I will write a blog entry reflecting upon its complexities one of these days.

Anyway. I feel sort of evil about it, but I am totally not surprised by this news whatsoever.

I read it and cracked up. I must be evil like you. Then I had to think what the hell when it the treasure a while to figure it out. $6000 is a lot of money to just say oh well maybe I just calculated that column wrong. I used to find her a bit annoying. Trying to pretend that she was super perfect and blah blah blah.
