Steve, We were so sorry to hear about Uncle Dale. There are so many good memories--card games, a shoe that went under a paddleboat and came up on the other side, times at the lakes, ice skating, and all the get-togethers, etc, etc. Your father and mother were really special. I'm sorry we weren't there yesterday but I have been dealing with some medical issues....have a doctor's appointment tomorrow. Jr.
