I was so sorry to learn of Dallas Death. We went back a long way. Dallas worked with My brother Larry at Budwieser and we were Little League buddies in South Asheville League at Biltmore School. We watched all the Children grow up and coached Paul. Dallas always had a kind and friendly word for every one. We have many fond memories of the family and we want Paul and the other Children to know that our prayers and thoughts are with them at this time.
