We are so sorry to hear about mom. She was a very caring and responsible parent.
I so enjoyed my parent conferences with her and dad. Of course, the conferences
were so special also because your parents had great hard working and high
levels achieving students. it was my honor to have you lead our excellent
Winneconne High School Band. What a wonderful pleasure for
me that I have not forgotten. Thank You
You have our thoughts and prayers
Most Sincerely

I'm so sorry for your lost Gordy. I grew up down the road from you on the Davis farm. She was a very kind woman and I remember you both fondly. I pray that God watches over you both and comforts you and your family. <3
