We were sorry to hear about Uncle Dusty. He looked so much like our Dad, his brother Bob, who passed away October 9th, 2001. I am sure that they are doing a lot of catching up right now, along with their parents. We are thinking of you at this time, Roberta, Laura, Melissa and Michelle Miller. - Posted by: Michelle Miller-Zurcher (Family) on: Jan 12, 2009
