Cindy Breese wrote a sympathy message

“So sorry for your loss. I remember the times we got together at Black Lake. We would boat across the lake and visit with Aunt Paula and Uncle Max. We learned how to make the saltine crackers snack and fished for salmon. He was always ready with handy tips for lake living. I pray you find peace and comfort at this time. Love Cindy and Dean Breese.”
