Dear Kolesar Family,
I want to extend my deepest sympathies to all of you on the passing of your Dad Andy. 
I thoroughly enjoyed conversations with your Dad in the past several years as he walked up Carolina Drive to his home. He would catch me up on how you were all doing and talk about the good old days!
I just want to reminisce with you some of my fondest memories of the Kolesar Family. 
- Playing Challenge the Yankees in the pop-up camper on the side yard. Young Andy kept amazing statistics on all of the players on index cards!
- I was always impressed with your wonderful month long trips throughout the United States ( even Alaska!) every summer.  I vividly remember all of those stickers on the back of the camper. 
- Playing wiffle ball in your backyard. As usual Mark was the best player!
-Endless basketball games at the Rollendelli/ Eidman hoop!
-games to 100 by ones
- young Andy’s famous pretzel shot ( he would remember)
-Capture the flag on the Warger’s front yard
-Sleeping out  “ Under the Stars”
-Your Mom coming out on the front steps calling your names one by one to come home for dinner!
-Spin the bottle!!
We truly had a wonderful childhood on Carolina drive and The Kolesar family was a big part of my wonderful memories of my youth!
My friends and I still talk about Mark !
He left an indelible impression on all of us and still miss him!
Your Dad lived a long fruitful life but he will be missed!
God bless you all and stay safe!
Your friend and neighbor 
Danny O’Connell☘️
