Grandma we all love you and will miss you so much! I have so many memories of Christmases at your house and playing in the backyard and looking down the ravine for deer. And who can forget the basement and playing bar haha. I am so thankful you got to see me grow up and get married and get to know Finn. He loved visiting you and sending you his artwork so much. We will always cherish our memories with you.

Sharon, Sandy, and David - My deepest condolences on the passing of your mother. Your father and my mother shared a birth date. Your father was a friend of both my parents and introduced them, resulting in a 66 year marriage. I fondly remember the picnics and Christmas parties they and the "WW Club" organized for us when we were children. If you contact me, I may have a photo or two of your parents and "the gang." Best wishes as you move on from your loss.

So sorry to hear of Rita's passing. She was such a lovely person and a sweet lady. I will always remember the times we had on the many bus
trips together or even just going to lunch. Thoughts and prayers to her family at this time.
