Our sincere symathy to you all. Ken stopped in last fall when we were combining just to see how things were going. It was nice to have a visit, although at the time I had to go and get a dump on the combine and when I came back he had left. Thinking of you, Irma & Gordon

Dear Kathleen and family,
My sincere sympathy to you all on the loss of your husband/father/grandfather. Remember him in the happy times of home and family, and hopefully it will sustain you now.
I regret not being able to attend either visitation or the funeral, but involvement in church commitments here preclude that.
Elaine – do you remember making mud pies?
