Dear Scott and family - I am sorry to hear about Mr. Kreider's passing. I'm not sure if you remember me or not but I was your parent's neighbor in Dover. Your father always had a very special relationship to my brother Todd who passed away this past October. I was grateful for the relationship he gave Todd who thought the world of your dad.
My prayers are with all of your family.
Amy (Walter) Brooks
