2012 Dunseith Caribbean Cruise – new bookings
 
We just got a message from Gina that Larry and Mary Bullinger have signed up for our cruise. She also has one more, very well known couple to a whole lot of us, that will probably be signing up within the next day or so too.
 

I remember Larry and Garry Bullinger (twins) from my growing up days. As I remember, they were Bottineau folks and were with the BHS class of 65, so being the same age as me I knew who they were.

 

Larry and Mary: We are very much looking forward to meeting and seeing guys on the cruise.

Condolences to the Zeiler Family

From Ron Peltier (’70): Dunseith, ND

 

Sorry to hear about the passing of Lyle Zeiler, he was really a great man and a friend. I got to know Lyle when he had a shop at his dad’s place, bought my first Scorpion snow machine from him plus a chain saw, he was always there to help with any problems you had with your snow machine or chain saw, never a negative word to say about anyone or anything. He was just like his dad whom I also considered a close friend. My heartfelt thoughts and prayers go out to his wife, Sharon and to his children.
