Hilmer was a great guy and a wonderful neighbor, we will miss him.
We wish to express our sympathies to the Salge Family.
Mr. Salge was a great guy. We got to know him because his son, Terry, played many years in our band, the Seven Dutchmen Orchestra. He was very supportive of us, and over the years fixed several cases to hold our equipment, as well as stands to hold our music. We’re very proud to have these examples of his handiwork, and they will remind us of him in the months and years ahead.
Our thoughts and prayers are with you.
