I am very sorry to read of the passing of DJ. We have been friends of the Kolinski family for decades. His father built the addition to the kitchen on Westway. His Mom shared china painting and crafts with my wife Joyce. I visited the furniture store occasionally.

Condolences to the family and friends of DJ.
