    Sue, Alan, Greg, So sorry to hear of Dicks passing. Had many laughs over the years of he and dad talking about the good old days! Always had a kind smile for everyone, hard worker, would always stop to chat for a while! I truly miss those good old days when everything seemed so great, and things seemed so simple! Keep mom, dad busy and we will see you all later! Miss them all and the times we had together! Peace and love to the family!

      Tim, thank you so much for thinking of us. I’m with you, I miss the good old days. Colfax was a great place to grow up and run around. I remember our trips to the 500, your dad would get the tickets and we’d all sit together. Good times and great memories for sure. I will pass on your thoughts to mom. Thank you again for thinking of us. We truly appreciate it. -Alan
