Not sure what to say?

We are very sorry to hear of Augusts passing. We were lucky to have a chance to visit with August at his grandson Alex's wedding in Portland last August at Chuck and Jan's place. He was in prime form when we saw him. August had quick wit and sharp sense of humor when we talked. He was enjoying being with his family and seeing everyone that was there for the wedding. August will be missed.

Sorry we are so far away. Sincere sympathies.
Bob and Audrey Gustafson

I am so sorry for your Papi's passing. Tons of love to you and your family.

Sorry for your loss, Julie. I remember you all. I am Aggie's son and class of 72.

August was a member of our 1950 Benson High School graduating class. He will be missed at our class reunion in June. I remember August when we moved back to Benson when my husband,Norman P. Olsen was a pastor at Our Redeemer's Lutheran Church. Blessed be his memory.








All of my thoughts are with your family at this time, he lived a long and wonderful life and loved you all very much, you were lucky to have him, cherish your memories.

My deepest sympathy to all the family. I had the privilege of taking care of August. He taught me to never give up, even if the outcome looks dim. He will be missed.

So sorry to hear of your dads passing. My thoughts and prayers are with you all. Blessed be his memory.

We are so sorry to hear of your dad's passing. There is nothing that can be said to take away the pain. Love to all of you.
