Cousins and Aunt Chris, sorry for the loss of brother and son. But wow, what a tribute from the many classmates and friends!!
I will remember the many family gatherings. I caught my first crappie fishing with Doug on a dock at Pickstown, SD. We were waiting for Uncle Lloyd to come back with the boat for our turn to get out “on the big water”.
Also, in later years, stopping by the “special” refrigerator in the garage at the Mitchell home place.
Lost touch over recent years, Doug in CR and us in SFLS. Will have to catch up when I too am called to the Spirit World.
For now will have a Mass said at SDSU Newman Center.
