So sorry to hear of Lucians passing. I was fortunate enough to have known him and do a lot of business with him down through the years, usually, on a word and a hand shake. He was a good man, a great Carpenter/Home Builder and a man of the utmost integrity. You could always bank on his word. My condolences goes out to Dale, Janice and the rest of the Family for their loss. May he Rest In Peace.
