Galan "Dutch" Friese

We sure miss Dutch. Bigger than life!

We all miss Dutch at our Wabash College alumni events. He's the reason I got involved with the Wabash alums in the first place when I was a law student at SMU in the late 1960s. Thanks, Dutch. I trust you are in Paradise with Christ now. Bless you and your family.

I had the privilege of getting to know Dutch through Joy McMinn, a lifelong friend. Dutch was a very nice man and a great American whom I will always remember fondly.

Dutch was a great friend and Sigma Chi Brother. He maintained the Spirit of Youth and the high ideals of our Fraternity. His life added a new luster to this world.

All honor to his name.

Although I only had a few conversations with Dutch, usually during the Monon Bell party in Dallas, his words always had a strong impact on me. His influence on the Wabash Alums in Dallas will always be remembered. Some Little Giant!

Dutch was a man who had incredibly strong views and opinions and a great deal of passion. One of the things about which he was passionate was Wabash college and especially the local alumni. He was cherished by all of us.

Dutch was a great encouragement to me during my early days in Dallas, and he and Barb were great friends to my wife and me for many years. We know Joy was a great joy to him during these latter years, and a good friend to us as well. No man cared more about his country, or his college - Some Little Giant!

We miss you, Grandpa. Rest in peace.

May God's loving words found at Ps. 72:12-13. Comfort your Family in this difficult time.
With Deep Sympathy
