Hi David Stadler younger brother of Dick, although almost 10 years separated us he was and still is loved although we have been separated by many miles for many years Dick once told me that he was happiest when he and his little dog Corky would get in his boat and go fishing although I'm sure he also really enjoyed the company of his children and absolutely his wife Mary although Dick never liked crowds of this I'm kind of the same way but Dick was very personable he was always happiest alone
Dear brother of mine when you get where you're going please say hi to mom, dad, Dawn, Bud and of course your dear wife Mary
I can share this little memory of mother once offering me the choice of chocolate pudding or butterscotch will Dick really wanted the butterscotch and I really wanted the chocolate pudding Dick got me out underneath the Appletree back in Illinois and he told me about all the bad things that was in the chocolate pudding I don't really remember the total outcome of it but I think I went with the chocolate pudding anyway
Dear Dick I so wish I had been able to spend more time with you but you had your dear Mary and I had my dear Carole so I hope you understand
love your brother Dave
until later
