My mother (Ollie Carlson) and I extend our deepest sympathy on the passing of your dear father. Your dad worked with my dad (Ray Carlson)at Dominion Tanners for many years. For several years our dad's planned hunting trips together. My mother recalls serving breakfast for their 5:00am departure! Cherish the memories and know our thoughts are with you at this sad time.
