Cynthia Ivan of Akiak lost her Grandmother, Lucy Ivan, to COVID-19 earlier this month. Cynthia wrote about the experience on Facebook, and her thoughts and observations were later printed in the Anchorage Daily News. On Coffee at KYUK, Cynthia reads the first part of her story, and then talks about her experience and why she wanted to share it with others.
