Oh Mr. Sunde! My earliest memory of you was coming to your house to hang out with Lisa after school. It was rare that I ever saw you, actually. Tiptoeing past your room, the soft glow of a TV from inside, it was the only indication you were there. I mostly heard you. Your deep voice bellowing at Lisa to turn down the music. I was always a little intimidated by your voice.   

Later, I learned what a softie you were! Very fond of giving emotional speeches, where you cried about meeting your sweet love, Elizabeth. I was also impressed with how much feeling you lived your life. And what a full and beautiful life it was. 

It was an honor to know you. Thank you so much for giving me Lisa as one of oldest and dearest friends. Rest easy. ❤️

The Sunde Family

Hugs to all of you and so much love. Bill and Sharon
