Dear Feldman family, I am so sorry for your lose. Dana & I go way back to kids in the neighborhoods of Broadway & Park Dr. We had reconnected through the class of 65 BHS's reunions but I feel a real loss for not reaching out even more. May your family rest in the Grace & Peace that comes from knowing and trusting Jesus during these times. If you have any kind of a memorial service for Dana please let me know, I would love to attend. Thank you, Norm & Karen Chamberlin
