Sincere condolences to the family of Bev Kent and Don Roberts. They supported the Times Colonist for decades and never complained when the weather caused delays. The walk from their home to the cul-de-sac road down the hill was incredibly steep and my heart pounded a bit faster when I was asked to deliver the paper closer to their home. Then I realized that Bev ( or Don, when capable) walked down this road every day until ( Bev) experienced a fall in January. I can't believe I was scared to drive up their driveway and Bev walked it everyday. I hope they get to read the Times in heaven.

I worked with Beverley at CN in Montreal in the 60s. A lovely person. I am sorry for your loss.
