Dear Koster Families:
I did not know Dick well. I am sure I only met him two or three times in my life. However, I know him to be a loving and kind person because I know his daughter Ann. Her father and mother must have passed these traits on to her as she too is a kind and loving person. I wish I could be with you and your familly now but I have faith in your "family's" devotion to cope with your father's death.
My prayers for you all,
Nancy Stolts
