To Pam Blosser and the rest of the Dahlstrom Family:

We are so sorry for your loss, we would like you to know you are in our thoughts and prayers. I will remember Don always with a big smile on his face as he would pass Pam and I (every time) we would skip a class at Colunbia River. He would drive by us on 9th Ave and give us the little nod and big smile. It never failed.
