Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Sue Davidson and Jack Gage of Whitehead, Zunker, Gage, Davidson & Shotwell, P.C., Cheyenne, for appellants.

Curtis B. Buchhammer of Guy, Williams, White & Argeris, Cheyenne, for appellee Carl R. Pace d/b/a Carl's Backhoe and Well Drilling Service.

Glenn Parker and Thomas G. Gorman of Hirst & Applegate, P.C., Cheyenne, for appellee John E. Frentheway.

Before BROWN, C.J., THOMAS, CARDINE and MACY, JJ., and RAPER, Retired Justice.
