Valerie Tarbell is a schoolteacher in Manchester, New Hampshire. She attended an autographing at Marklin Candle's new gift shop in Contoocook, New Hampshire, on a very snowy day on December 21st. Valerie wanted her photograph taken with Tomie. But, Valerie's camera was full and there wasn't any room for another photograph. Valerie is especially memorable because she said, "I'll delete anything!" That is, treasured photographs of family, friends and pets were toast. Valerie wanted a photograph with Tomie!
