To all the Dates family George & I extend our deepest sympathy to you all. Your dad was such a kind man and always had a big hug for me whenever I saw him over the years. Hoping he and Dad and Bill are having a good long talk and solving all the farming issues of the world! You are all in our thoughts and prayers.
