I am so sorry to hear about your loss. I was out of town and didn't hear about your father's passing until I returned. I'm sorry I was unable to attend the funeral. D.C. was a wonderful person and a good friend. He will be greatly missed.

Chris and Family,
Sorry for the loss of your father. DC was a great person. I had the honor of bowling a lot of different places with him. From one lefty to another. He was a great teacher of the game. He taught me a lot. I will sadly miss him.
My prays and thoughts go out to Chris and the family.
God Bless.
