Patty and Ricky, I'm so sorry to hear of your dad's passing. He was such a fighter! I will always remember him puttering in the yard, cleaning the pool, working in his garden, making maple syrup over the fire in the back yard, telling us about his hunting adventures and more! I remember one time sitting in our family room on New Year's Eve while he told Woody and I all about his background in the wars and his interest in the environment and nature! It was so enlightening to hear all that as an adult - I had known him my entire life, yet that was a side I had never known about him! Woody and I talk of that time everytime his name comes up! Know that we are all keeping you both in our prayers and that although we can't be there in body, we will be with you in spirit!

Patty and Richard,
I am very saddened to hear of the loss of your father. I know how special both your parents were and how this must be a difficult time. I remember talking to Richard when we both worked for Ensco about all of the traveling your parents liked to do.
Please know that my thoughts and prayers are with you both as well as your entire family. May the Lord's comforting hand rest on you during the coming months. Know that he is right beside you, waiting to pick you up when you need him to.
Sincerely,
Darlene Kanuk
