Retired from a long career owning and operating the Fiddlehead Restaurant in Juneau, Deborah remodeled her Mud Bay cabin and relocated to Haines permanently.  She guided for 12 years with Rainbow Glacier Adventures and now homesteads happily, smokin’ fish and growing greens.

Suzanne Vuillet Smith

Secretary

I came from the Big Apple to visit my older sister in 1988 and never left. The people make this place, and KHNS helps us connect with each other and the world, and is a true voice in the wilderness. My husband, Backcountry host Norm Smith, and I raised our family here.  I love to swim and dip in the icy waters of the Upper Lynn Canal to start my days, and work with people with disabilities because it enriches my life.

As a long time resident and avid listener of KHNS, my favorite radio station, I bring positive vibes and my productive energy to the station and the people of the Upper Lynn Canal. I am a retired primary grade teacher and a passionate child advocate.

I continue to offer my time and energy to my community and participate in ways that I can be most effective. I am proud to serve as a KHNS Board member.
