Dave Bryant Update
I received an email from Karen Bryant on Friday. Here is some of what she said:
Dave is now living at Brown Deer Place in Coralville. We moved him yesterday (Thursday). It was a very hard decision but the right one. They have asked us not to visit for a couple of weeks so he can acclimate to the facility. Thanks for all the help the members have been with Dave. He will always have his music. Karen
