My thoughts, prayers, and love go out to you Mrs. Murawa, Gary, Mark, Mary, and all of your families. Mr Murawa was a big influence in my life in our early years. He is the one that introduced me and help teach me the game of golf. It is that game that has kept us all close. I always enjoyed going to the various family functions and talking about golf, family and life with him. Again, you all are in my thoughts and prayers.

Love, Denny
