Hello to Murray..... We were just talking to a friend involved with the Austin Thresherman’s Reunion and were told the sad news that your dear son David had passed away. We so enjoyed seeing both of you for many years as you did so much together as a father and son at Austin. David was a wonderful hard working volunteer at the Reunion. He was kind and friendly and so willing to help anyone who needed assistance. Please accept our sincere and heartfelt condolences. Murray, we hope to see you at Austin next year. Until we meet again.... kindest regards.... Ron and Brenda Samchuk in Birtle, Manitoba.
