Dave,
I'm so sorry for the loss of your dad. I know we've lost touch over the years but I've always felt we were the best of friends and I feel that way still.

Just found out about Wayne's passing. God bless you.

We send our condolences to the family with the passing of Wayne. I will miss the regular telephone visits with my brother. The photo of Wayne, macho and handsome, in his aviator gear is my favorite.

Merrie,
We are keeping you and your family in our hearts and prayers.
Love to all.
Jim and Ann

David and Merrie-
Kathy and I wish you the best in this hard time. Delmar also sends his condolences. He has been living here in Grand Junction near us for about a year now.
I always enjoyed when our families were able to get together, despite the distance, particularly the time we were able to come to Appleton and spend a few days at Crivitz.

David, I am very sorry to hear of the loss of your father. I know my father purchased a number of vehicles from your dad. He was always pleased with dealing with your dad. It has been a long Long time since I have seen you and even a longer time since I have seen your dad. I hope you are OK. Take the best of care, John

Peace of mind is a call away. We're here when you need us most.

Dave,
I'm very sorry for your loss.
You took good care of your dad.
Take good care of yourself at this difficult time.
Bill

So sorry for your loss. God's Blessings to your family
