Jeanne Campbell Hello Brent & Barb:
I saw your Dad about a year ago at the lodge, when the Police Chorus was performing. He brought the little Police statue with him, and I was so happy to see him. He still had that devilish glint in his eye, and we talked for quite a while. Both he and your Mom looked out for me for so many years there on Riel Place. I’ll never forget those days, and how much the Pottage’s meant to me……
He was a real doll!love Jeanne
