Guestbook
I still remember when you were so excited that we were the same age for about three weeks when we were kids. As we got older, you didn’t get that excited because you didn’t want to catch up to me and its not like you were going to pass me up either. Our families had good times during the holidays and going out to Little Rock Lake. Years have gone by and we didn’t see each other much but you will always be in my heart and I will miss your great smile and laughter. Rest in peace until we meet again. Love ya, Laura
Our condolences to Dean’s family. We attended a lot of Legion bowling tournaments with Dean years ago and he always nicknamed himself “The Wild Thing” but was the tamest in the bunch. Our conversations always centered on his pride in his family and his love for hunting and fishing and being a hockey coach. Peace.
Dear Brother, you have put down deep roots here even though you have fallen. You will be deeply missed. Love you forever and ever we will see each other again someday.
So very sorry to hear of your terrible loss. Please know your family is in our prayers and thoughts. Janet, Bob and Caitlyn
We are so sorry to hear about your loss. We were surprised to see Dean’s name listed in the paper. Your family is in our thoughts and prayers.
Steve so sorry to hear about your dad. You and your family are in my prayers. I’ve missed you! I have many memories of you & Lyle & Dillon(lots of stories there,huh?). Would have loved to come to the wake to see you and your family, but because of my leg I can’t. Be strong! Love, Pam
Our deepest sympathy to you and your family. Please know that we are thinking about you, Maria, and your entire family, during this time. We will always remember watching the girls play volleyball together.
