Dusti, born in the Sun Valley Lodge on Aug. 17, 1954, was found dead in her home on Friday, Aug. 15, 2008.
Dusti was an original Sun Valley girl who loved skiing, skating, hiking and relentlessly teasing tourists with her best friend, Darrel.
Dusti's biggest passion was to be a caregiver of animals, be it turtles, guinea pigs, cats, sheep, dogs, birds or snails. Dusti loved them all.
Dusti was preceded in death by her father, Ned Bell, and is survived by her mother, Betty Bell; her brother, Dave Bell; her sisters, Andy Bell and Bridget Cimino; and her niece, Ebi Bell, all of Ketchum.
Dusti's family and her friends will gather at the home of Tony and Holly-Harris Hoffman in Hulen Meadows on Sunday, Aug. 31, at 4 p.m. Bring your favorite story.
