Mrs. Brhel, Debbie and Wayne,
I was so sorry to hear about Mr. Brhel’s passing. I really admired him; he was one of my favorite people I’ve known over the years. I have great memories of my interactions with him over the years. I remember listening to his stories, including about playing softball with Moose Skowron. I remember observing that he was a hard-working man, dedicated to his family. I do have to admit I have a few not-so-pleasant memories, like the time we broke the storm door window pitching towards it (DUH!) and having to face Mr. Brhel. 🙂 But even then he used it as a teaching moment, and I don’t think Wayne or I ever did that again!
I’m thankful that I was able to visit with Mr. and Mrs. Brhel a few years ago when I was in the neighborhood. They are both special people to me!
