Loss of a Polkie

To those involved who still remember, My father Len Shufelt and Myself both worked for Polk several years ago, but we both remained polkies and enjoyed the time we spent there.
It is with sad news that I let you all know Len passed away on December 28th.

    Sorry about the loss of your Father.

    Losing a Father is tough.

    May he rest in peace.

    May you and your family find joy and peace in those memories you made around Polk Audio and throughout the years.
