Shay remembers many many pans of buns coming out of the funny looking oven that Twyla baked with in her kitchen, and always having a ham and cheese sandwich on one of those buns to eat when he arrived from that long bus ride home from school. Everyone always knew they would have plenty of homemade delicious food to eat while they were there to work.

Twyla and Sam never had any trouble finding help on the farm. Twyla was renowned for her cooking and baking skills. Twyla and Sam spent many hardworking years on the family farm north of Bainville and east of Froid. Twyla and “Sammy” had a whirlwind romance and were married in the Lutheran church in Froid on Aug. Froid is where she would meet the love of her life, Samuel Lee Picard of Bainville. She was very proud to be a Froid Cardinal and would always point them out when she was lucky enough to see one. When Twyla was still little Harvey and Jo moved their small family to Froid, where Twyla would spend her childhood, grow up, make many lifelong friends, and go to school. Twyla’s story starts on April 14, 1952, the oldest child to Harvey and Josephine Chell. Our “Nana,” as she liked to be called by her grandchildren, “Honey,” as she was called by Tawny when she was little, was an amazing wife, mom, daughter, and a baker of buns like no other could be. Twyla was a wonderful woman that was loved, is missed, and will always be cherished. This is the story of Twyla Daun (Chell) Picard. Below is an obituary example that shows another creative obituary.
