Bartlett says she just happened to recognize her successor’s name but didn’t connect the dots right way.
That is until she went home and looked at a painting that had hung on her wall for more than 30 years.
That painting was done by Lavonne Unger, a prominent local painter and Micaela's grandmother.
As it turns out, many of Unger's works had been lost to a house fire, so Bartlett made sure the one she had found it's way home.
