Lyn - I wanted to let you know how sorry I was to learn of your father's death. A flood of memories came rushing back to me from our days in Brainerd. I remember your dad was always very friendly and patient with all of us when we were playing in the backyard, the basement and wherever else! Please extend my sympathy to your brother Mike, sister Kathy and your mom.
