After decades of dedicated service, Sheridan County Public Library System Children’s Librarian, Michelle Havenga will retire on August 31 — 40 years and one month after she was first hired.
The Sheridan Press published a wonderful story that’s well worth the read on Michelle and her upcoming retirement.
Michelle was well-known in the Wyoming library community and well-appreciated for her energy, joy, and sense of humor. Over the course of her career, she has inspired countless Sheridan County children to love reading and libraries.
All are invited to the library’s retirement party for Michelle on Friday, August 20 from 10 a.m.-2 p.m. at the Fulmer Library at 335 W. Alger Street in Sheridan.

Words are not enough to express our deepest appreciation for Michelle in her dedicated service and positive impact upon lthe lives of children and those who have grown to know and love her as servant to the Sheridan Fulmer children’s library. There are those God has created that are a special gift which rarely can be duplicated. Michelle is one of those special people and gifts. We truly shall miss her presence and contribution to all she has blessed by knowing her.
