Dear Ann Landers,
missed your first article on Roger Daub, who fell from the Garrison Dam, but I saw the second letter, and it brought back memories. When I was a 20-year-old engineering student at the University of North Dakota, I got a summer job on the Garrison Dam. I worked as The Rfsi k Am La in he rs / 2 3 7 an inspector on the surge tanks, and one of my primary responsibilities was to see that the contractors followed safety standards such as wear-ing safety belts on the scaffolds. I had been on the job only about a week when Roger Daub came tumbling down. After that happened, I changed my major from engi-neering to math. Nobody falls 150 feet in math.

Our Reader to Reader Question of the Week:


Dear Readers,
, whatever they needed I provided. What really hurt my son and I the most was the obituary - we were not mentioned at all. Our friends (mine and hers) were appalled. I was embarrassed and upset for not just me, but for my son-who loved her also. I never been so upset. Her x-husband put his wife and kids and their grandchildren in the obituary, who my girlfriend barely knew. They live an hour away from us. I know its silly to be mad over a little section of the newspaper, but it still hurts. Will time let this devastating loss of her and this article ever go away? I am so angry at this whole situation, its not like we can go and rewrite an obituary notice.

Tell us what you think?
