  3. My heart truly goes out to the Mehlhoff family.
    Dave and I were high school buddies. Friday nights when the teen canteen was open, (which was a dance for teenagers at the Brown Memorial Hall), Dave would get his dad’s 1955 red and black Packard and we would cruise around town. We thought we were hot stuff. Then we would go to the dance, and take our sticks to fight off the girls. I have a lot more memories of Dave. I will never forget him.
    Thanks

    I’m very sorry for your loss. I first got to know your Dad when I married Jean. Somewhere over the years he became more my brother instead of my brother-in-law. He will be missed and always remembered.
