Dear Minch Family,
What a legacy! Fred and Jean will be remembered in Sumner in so many ways, their gift of Rhododendrons to raise funds to have the Bridge lights restored. The lasting impression they made as long time business owners. And most of all the warm and friendly way they treated people, making all of us richer from the experience.

Fred, Kathy and families: I have such fond memories of your Dad (& Mom) from the 70/80's with the Pacific Rhododendron Society-- scouring the hillside for that special seedling that he raised... He was always so vibrant and alive. I hope that the good memories will in time flood you with and ease your pain.

Grandpa Fred.... Death leaves a heartache no one can heal,
yet love leaves a memory no one can steal. We will love you forever...Dayl Jeff, Kamryn & Hunter
