I grew up on frost rd with Bragas, Schuns, Lebars and Petzolds and love the memories that that dirt road holds. So sorry to hear of Dave's passing. My brother, Joe, and my 2 sisters, Kathy and Marie and I, Nancy were childhood friends and neighbors till we all grew up and moved to different places. You have our heartfelt condolences.Nancy
