Fadette Gossard

 Sub-Series

Scope and Contents

Fadette Gossard was an administrator during Olive View's early days, and secretary to William H. Bucher, MD. Fadette kept copious records of her work files, personal files, and Dr. Bucher's files. Fadette functioned as much more than a secretary, and she like Bucher, made rounds in the wards, and wrote and delivered Radio Talks. She was also deputized as the postmaster for Olive View. Fadette was a favorite among patients, known for her empathy and advocacy. She was also an advocate for the Rehabilitation program, even penning a published article.
