We have many good memories of times when we were all living in Wyoming. Dave always tells the story of the time he and Bill were making a run back to Hanna from M.L.'s cabin in the middle of the night to repair a snowmobile. Dave was on his snowmobile pulling a sled with Bill riding on it. When Dave got to the corner, he looked back and Bill was gone! He had fallen off a couple of miles back!! Bill was not very happy with Dave, but they got it fixed and went back to the cabin and had a great day riding with all the other Missourians staying at the cabin.
Out prayers and sympathies are with all of you.
