We were Long Lake residents also. My mom was Marie Fredricksen & she spoke of your family often before her passing in 2003. You have my deepest sympathy on the loss of your husband and father.

We will miss watching and waving to "Uncle Paul" in his boat cruising around the lake. Tom has always been fond of him and will cherish his memory.

Sorry about your loss. I always remember him as Ernie and I were friends and Mr Janensch coming into Ace Hardware. He always remembered me and had time to talk. Sorry I can not come to the services as I live in Washington DC now. Greg Baldwin.
