Always enjoyed getting my haircut from Reyne. He never missed a chance to give me a hard time about all the hair I was losing but he sure did wonders with what little there was to work with. Brian, your dad was a super guy and the apple obviously didn't fall far from the tree. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family. Mike Cook.

Hoffer, Sorry to read/hear about your dad's passing. I always remember how much he enjoyed watching you play sports all the way through college. He was always very nice to me growing up. I hope all is well despite your loss. Rob Eelkema
