Joy,
I was saddened to hear about your Mother. I remember the great times we used to have being together as children. Your Mother used to make special breakfasts when I slept over in your home on Musset Avenue in Snowden, in Montreal.
Your Mother, Aunt Bess, had a special flair for decorating, and I recall sleeping on the red sectional couch in your bedroom at the front of your home. I believe that Merle Schpritzer was one of your neighbours.
We have not seen each other since your Father passed away over 32 years ago. Jodi was a baby at the time, and Sean and Andy were, 8 and 5 years old at that time.
We do not live in the Toronto area. We made our cottage in North Central Ontario, our Canadian home, 9 1/2 years ago and purchased a home in Bonita Springs, Florida, which is in Southwest Florida between Naples and Ft. Myers.
Stan is a real estate broker and owns an Assit2Sell franchise with a partner, and he is also a realtor in Ontario.
I retired in 1996 as the Showroom Manager for Global Upholstery, one of the largest manufactures of office furniture in Canada.
We now have Green Cards, and both of us are working again down here.
Stan and I have been married for 41 years and have 3 children. They are all married and we have 7 grandchildren; 4 grandsons, and 3 grandaughters, that all live in Ontario.
We have been fortunate to be healthy. My Mother, who is now 96, is fairly well these days, and lives at the King David in Montreal. Your Mother's passing really hit her hard. She is the eldest, and the only other serviving sibling is Aunt Hattie. Hattie has been living at Maimonades Hospital for the past few years. She is in poor health.
I have fond memories of the times we spent together as children and unfortunately living far away from each other has made it difficult to keep in touch. We would like to be able to be in contact with you and Robert. We spend our summer in Ontario at the lake, and would like to have the opportunity to meet Robert, and see you again.
Our deepest sympathy to you. May it be easier for you to remember all the wonderful moments of your Mother's life. I do, and my Mother does.
Stan and I wish you and Robert a healthy year ahead, and hope to be able to see you in the future.
I have some photos of all of us as small children, and would like to be able to sent them to you. Unfortunately, I do not have your address in Sault. Ste. Marie.
Long lost cousins, who remember that your birthday is December 7th.
Helen and Stan

Dear Joy,
I remember your parents' wedding in my parents' home. Our grandmother lived with us at the time and would not have been able to attend had it been anywhere else.
Condolences on your loss and would like to be in touch with you,
Your long-lost cousin,
Eudice
