I got a sad note from Bailey's today that David Bolstad died.  Many of you may have met Dave at one of the Sawmill Shootouts.

Our good friend Dave Bolstad unexpectedly passed away last weekend. Bailey's sponsored Dave for several years in the Stihl Timbersports Series and the Portable Sawmill Shootout. He visited both Laytonville and Woodland on numerous occasions, and many here at Bailey's did tradeshows with him. Our thoughts and prayers go out to his wife Michele and their two children.
