Kurt, Odenwald Family,
On Behalf of my family, our sincere condolences on the passing of Dutch. My dad really valued their friendship during the days when they served together in Shrewsbury City Government. He is one of the main reasons Shrewsbury continues to be a great place to live. I hope in fact that Dad and Dutch are up there talking about Kenrick right now ;-)
Best Wishes,
David Sinclair

To the Odenwald family from the Sinclair family: most of us went to school with most of you guys, and I know how much our fathers are clones of each other!! I can not imagine what his passing means to you! I know he will be sorely missed by all of you. When we get together, we still always talk about growing up in Shrewsbury, and how much fun we had with all the other families with lots of kids. And your pool, of course!!! The first "rich" friends we had with their own pool. And great graduation parties there, with never a problem, because we all had one eye out for "Dutch", 'cause everybody wanted to stay on his good side!! Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

To the Odenwald family,
I want to express my sincere sympathy for your loss. I had the privlege of working with Dutch for years. His tireless work and dedication on behalf of citizens with developmental disabilities will not be forgotten. His accomplishments leave a legacy that has improved the quality of their lives throughout Missouri. I am indeed blessed to have known him and had him as my friend.
