I wonder what his middle initial stood for? My middle name begins with an A also.

My middle name is Alfred, Amundsen would be better, methinks!

Kind of a long way to go to get a name. Here's an obit in which a Roald Dahlen is mentioned--is it you?

Wisconsin State Journal (Madison, WI) - Wednesday, October 15, 2014
Deceased Name: Hesterly, Linda Ruth (Dahlen)
VERONA - Linda Ruth (Dahlen) Hesterly, age 62,

"Perhaps my time seemed all too brief; Don't lengthen it now with undue grief. Lift up your heart and share with me. God wanted me now, He set me free."

I'd forgotten I put that obit up, I usually don't put living people with addresses up to keep down the people with nefarious purposes in mind, so I will take it down.
