Too fast of a view on the video but the still shot makes things a bit more visible. I first thought a Goldie cause of the color.

When I looked at the video I was taken completely by surprise to see the people involved are from Cokato, where I grew up. I have not lived there since 1968 but get there often to visit with family. I can't say I know the people in the story and I'm surprised I don't recognize the craftsman. Perhaps he moved into the area. A touching story none the less and really not surprised because that is what happens in small towns.
Regards,
Dwight
