So sorry for your loss. I'm trying to find out more about my fathers (Charles A DeNardo Sr) side of my genealogy and would love to hear from someone to talk about it 406-852-4340. But Mary got me interested in antiques when we would visit when i was very young. I remember asking my Dad several times to leave me there at your house because it was always so fun.

Bob and Family, sorry to hear about your Mom. I remember in high school going hunting with your Dad, Snowball, and his buddy Ted Richards, for pheasants. Your Mom asked me "I suppose these two convinced you to take school off?" Very sharp lady. I used that excuse to keep Mr. Warner from putting me in the cooler!

Take care and stay strong. Doug
