Jim and I volunteered many years with Carol and Dave at the Danbury Railway Museum. It was such a pleasure to know them. Every Friday Carol managed the front desk and Dave was a tour guide, and they participated in many events as car hosts and on projects. I miss them and send condolences to their family and friends.
Sue and Jim Teer
