Arvilla and family, what a shock! It's a bit disconcerting when you see someone passing who grew up with their daughter. I always enjoyed being around Andy both in Campers Haven when he came up for a visit and on the church council at Rib Mt. Lutheran. He always had that ready smile and a cheery "hello". My sympathies to all of you as you celebrate the life of your son, brother and father. Always remember the good times!
