I was sorry to hear of your dad's passing. It sounds like he led a wonderful life. I met Ben and Peg at the Olson family reunions when I was a kid, and remember them both as being friendly to me, who really didn't get how we were related. Peg was cousins with my mom, Venoie Olson Amey and her siblings. May your dad rest peacefully and may your memories give you comfort.

Kevin, we appreciate your letting us know about your Dad's passing. Your Mom and Dad were family members at this special time of loss. It doesn't seem that long back that we attended services for your Mom Peg and brother Brian.

We will be down in Palm Desert for several weeks beginning in mid-February so we will miss the memorial service for your Dad at Emerald Heights on February 28. We will be sure to make contributions to both of the historical societies mentioned in the...

Ben and Peggy lived a few blocks away from me so often walked passed their home while out with the dog. I passed the house the other day and thought of our time together at Grace. Peggy and I shared many memories as Circle sisters and played next to each other in the bell choir. Ben was always supportive of all activities at Grace and we all enjoyed his wonderful laugh and smile. A dear, gentle man. I will miss him.
