Not sure what to say?

I came upon this notice quite by accident. I remember Mr Whiteley from my early childhood, visiting the Kiernan family. He was always very sweet to me. His boys, teens at that time. were shy but also sweet, smiling at waving at a little girl. Mrs. Whiteley was lovely, always impeccably dressed.

We did a lot of business with Mr Whiteley and the folks at Moore Rug for many years. He was a good honest honorable businessman and a gentleman. He always had a smile and a kind word for everyone, a pleasure to know him.

So very sorry for your loss. Mr. Whiteley was always so kind and happy. What a long proud life he has shared. We very grateful we knew his lovely soul xoxo

Our heartfelt condolences on Jack's passing. May all the happy memories ease your sorrows. Jack was a true asset to the community that he loved.
