Our sympathy to the Van Dusen family. Granny will be truly missed. I remember him and the family well as we grew up with them in Coon Rapids. My father was a good friend during the early years growing up.

To the Van Dusens...
So very sorry to hear about your loss. My late mother, Elinor Godfrey, got to know him when she worked at the Anoka County Court house. Brian and I were close friends at school. I remember Sonny and CD coming to see us act in school plays. May your many memories help sustain you. My mother lived by the axiom "If there is some good I may do, let me do it now, for I may never pass this way again." It's in that spirit I write to offer my deepest condolences.

Granny, thanks for the memories and the stories of over the years! Fishing on the "secret lake" will not be the same.
