Dearest Kevin, Paul Ross and Nancy,

I'm sending piles of love your way to all of the family. You guys were the best friends and neighbours ever. Our folks have been friends for over 50 years. We have so many fun memories of Don. He made us all laugh and he was always so much fun. Bramalea would not be what it is today if not for Don and the community building he did with the Lions Club. Thank you. I have so many funny stories to tell of the Trimbles . I'll hold them close in my heart. Don & Lynne were like parents to me. Lives well lived. We'll miss you both. Debbie Gauci

GRANDPA
You are my shining light
Watching over me at night
Your broken heart has mended
Your suffering has ended
Your hugs were full of magic
Your death was very tragic
I'll miss you everyday
I'm lost for words to say
I hurt, I can't pretend
I'll miss you til the end
xoxo

A special moment

A Poem For Grampa
I guess my grandpa couldn't wait,he's standing now at Heaven's gate
Waiting in a line in sings while waiting for his shiny wings
Soon to be with grandma dear and to learn there is no beer.
He enjoyed his life and planted seeds,he made us laugh and did good deeds
I will miss his Lion's roar, his jokes and hugs will be no more
Although he left with no goodbye,he didn't even wear a tie!
He wants no sadness, only Cheer cause he got into Heaven and brought some BEER!
written by Olivia & Valerie Trimble for her amazing father-In Law

So sorry to hear about your Dad at Church yesterday. Your Mom, Lynne was a close friend of my wife, Evelyn, who worked with Lynne at Turner Fenton and was very compassionate to Evelyn after her accident. Please accept my family's condolence on your great loss.
