Dear Seyl Family:
We’re so very sorry to hear of Duane’s death.
A couple of my own grown children remember him as being a very pleasant and fun dad to be around. Dan especially remembers your hospitality and many good times spent at your house here in Pierce.
Nadine, remember all the hours spent on phone talks trying to analyze sons, and how to raise them.
May you all be comforted by the presence of your angels through this difficult time.
Linda
So sorry for your loss. We had some good times way back when.
