Dear Evangeline & family, Don & I wish to send you our deepest Sympathies on the loss of your husband. Sorry I am so late with this note but I don't have your mailing address and I didn't realize that I could get on line to sign this guest book. I went through my papers to take them to recycle and I wanted to keep the obituary so I looked through the papers and when I found it I saw the on line address for Haut funersl home. Just know that I have been thinking about you even though it has been years since we have seen each other. You and your family are in my prayers. May God comfort you during this sad time. All our Love, Don & Florence Liekhus
