Dear LuAnn and Family,
We were very sad to hear about Sarge's passsing. So many happy memories over the years we had at Shawano Lake. Sarge truly was a special person, and we always enjoyed our porch time talking about the good old days. Thinking about all of you, and praying for peace and comfort during this sorrowful time. With Sympathy,
