Mrs. D.,Debby, Doug, &Scott;
Our thoughts and prayers are with you. I am so sad to hear Mr. D. passed away. I still remember him from my last visit. It was evident he was declining, but I hoped he would enjoy his life for many more years, especially since he worked so hard all his life. He seemed to love being busy, be it working at his job, in the house, or out in the yard. He was a very nice person, and a good neighbor to us. He will see us all again in heaven. He's probably looking for a job assignment right now! We will fondly remember him always.
I spent many hours with your dad
in the back yard on Holt Ct. during the time I lived there, so
I can truly say I thought he was a
great guy. I admired him. To me he
was smart and could do lots of things. A rare kind of man you don't see too much of anymore.
Those years I had in Milwaukee with you I still remember like yesterday.We have never forgotten
and will never forget Mr. Dalsbo.

Dear Eleanor and family,
It's been quite a long time since we have seen any of your family. My brother and I have fond memories of childhood family reunions in Delavan and remember Doug as a very nice man. We are sorry for your loss. I didn't have an address for you so thought this would be the best way to get in touch. Sincerely,
Linda Harvey Kliebhan and John Harvey
