My wife and I didn't know Mr. Fonduk
but we did have a old time camper with his
name on it. It was a tiny camper but weighed a ton,everyone who visited us would comment on his name.about
We're back to having a travel trailer and have decided to name it Louie Fonduk
Just be chance we looked up Louie and came across his obituary.I'm thankful to see
a picture of mr.fonduk and we both have wonderful memories of our
Louie.

I'm sorry for your loss. Louie was always friendly & helpful when my parents were buying trailers in the late 60's and early 70's. He will be dearly missed.
