Mike and Family, Very sorry to hear the sad news. Always remember the heated Table Talk- VFW games with Mr Robbins and your Dad Versus Tody Overdorf and my Dad. They would go back and forth pretty good, especially our Dads. My Mom always got the biggest kick out of your Dad in the stands at our FDR football games. Sincerely, Joe Brenner
