One year…

We still think of you and love you…

The Mogs are coming….

Dale’s wife, Milena, and son Alexander are coming over for a White Christmas, which Dale had promised Alexander. Originally Dale was supposed to be on this trip until his cancer overcame him.

If you’re interested in a get-together with friends from the past, give me a shout at cyndyg@mac.com and I’ll let you know when and where it is. They arrive in the States on December 10 and will be in the Lodi area from December 20 through Janaury 1.

The minute they arrive we’re off to cut a tree (Alex has NEVER been able to do this) and decorate it Yank style. Larry and Susan Seiler have snow plans…and Steve and Sue Wasik have some good times planned at their place. Somehow we’ll fit it all in.

The Aussie Christmas is in the middle of summer…hot and dry. No reindeer, snow, trees. I seem to recall a tale from my youth that Santa flew around in a helicopter to drop off gifts. That ole guy is good at adapting. Enjoy the season and get in touch.

In memory of Dale…

Dale died on Saturday, October 6, 2007, at around 6pm Brisbane time.

Thank you for your comments…

Please feel free to leave comments for the family. This blog is managed by Dale’s sister, Cyndy Green, who will pass everything along to Dale’s family in Australia. If you wish to leave a personal message rather than one on the blog, please email Cyndy at cyndyg@mac.com.

Steve Wasik & Larry Seiler…

Both guys are over in Australia right now – they flew over, hoping they would be there in time to visit with Dale. Unfortunately things did not go as planned. They are staying on to help Milena and Alexander and to see a bit of the country. Let’s hear it for true friends.
