So sorry for your loss. I remember Spike and me escorting two Danish girls around town at one of the first Danish Festivals. It took us a while to figure out that they didnGÇÖt speak English! It was great to see him at our 50th reunion last year. May you find comfort in his memory.
Sorry to read about SpikeGÇÖs passing. We went to school together from grade school on. He was a nice man. It was great seeing him at our 50th last year. Hugs and prayers for the family as you go through this difficult time.

Many memories of school and football. Also fun times riding around town in his Wyman. Great time at the class reunion last summer. Thoughts and prayers to the family.
