To David Konecny Family

David and I were great friends in grade school and junior high. He always liked to work with wood. We would spend hours in the family garage making different projects from wood. I remeber his mother as a very kind and friendly mother. After high school it seems I lost track although at high school reunions I would get an update. I didn't realize Dave lived in Cascade as I would go up the river at every HS reunion. God willing maybe I will make it to heaven and make up for lost time. Friend Leon Puzon
