Dehl Family,
I am very sorry about the death of James Patrick. My mother is a Dehl. I keep the family tree. I ran across James' obituary today while doing some research. My grandfather Otto Dehl and your grandfather William were brothers. Would love to hear from someone in your family.
Sincerely,
Vicky Capretta Graham
