We had the privilege of living across the street from Dave and Vi Halkola for three years. Dave was pure class, as a neighbor, friend and honorary Grandfather to our daughters. I remember using my snow blower for the first time. Dave came down his steps and I asked him who did his snow. He said “The man who lived in your house always did my snow.” I plowed and scooped for him for three winters and always had a cup of coffee and good conversation waiting when I got to the top of his stairs. We feel very blessed to have known such a wonderful man.
