The Dunseith Alumni Web site
I should have the malware out of our web site within the next day or so. I thought I had it out, but there must have been more than one. Our hosting folks at GoDaddy are really good to work with. Our site is now scheduled for daily scans everyday day at midnight Philippine time. The first scan will be tonight. I will check the site in the morning. If we still have malware I will call them back again. The folks at GoDaddy do not have admin access to our site, so they have to walk me through the steps.

Reply from Erling Landsverk (’44): King, WI.
Hi Gary and Everyone:
I was saddened to learn of Orvins passing. I last had an opportunity to spend some time with him at the 1 Room School Reunion that was held on July 10, 2010. My sister Borg went to school with Orvin and I believe they were the same age. We also had an opportunity to meet some of his family. Iand his sister Thelma were class mates at dear old DHs. I also remember his parents, Tom And Agnes, and his maternal Grandfather, Pete Milhus. There is much more but there isn’t enough space to relive those wonderful old memories. Suffice to say that Orvin was loved by all who knew him. I remember my sister Borg and Orvin laughing as they recalled old times together. Another segment of our oldder Alumni has passed, but his memory will always be cherished by everyone who knew him.
Erling Landsverk.
