Craig & Family,
I am sorry about your father/grandfathers passing. He certainly lived a full and rewarding life. He was always so good to pick up my mother-in-law Ruth Scollick and take her for rides. One time when we saw him in the store--he offered us coupons for some of the items in our cart. And what a great pin-pong player he was. His greatest legacy are you guys!!!
Sincerely,
Gary and Ruth Ann Fenske
