I am sorry to hear of the passing of John Entenmann. I spent many days at his house in Sartell and cabin on Long Lake with his grandson and my friend Jeff Teer. John and Phyllis always treated me very well. Although it has been many years since I seen John, I have thought of him many times. My thoughts and prayers go to Phyllis and the rest of the family.
Very Respectfully,
Jeff Patton
