Along with my family, I was very sorry to hear of Mrs. Dye’s (Miss Betsy) passing. Growing up in Fox Mill was a great experience. It is impossible to look back on those years without thinking of her. Her house was always open. Her hospitality had no limits and she was genuinely interested in the well-being of her many guests.
I have always treasured, and will never forget, a conversation we had when I was a young adult, and at a point in my life where I was not making good decisions. I am going to keep the contents of our talk private but let’s just say it was 90% pep talk and 10% was a (verbal) kick in the tail. That was at a key point in my personal comeback and, as I said, I will never forget.
Mr. Dye, John, and Chris, please know that the Hagenbrock family have been thinking of you in this difficult time.
With deepest sympathy,
Carl D. Hagenbrock
