Although we didnt keep in close contact, Neil,(our cousin) sent a Christmas card to my Mom, Gladys Kerr, every year. She waited with anticipation to receive it.She kept every one.
When I was 13 we lived in Montreal and Neil was working for Eaton's and he got me hired to march in the Santa Claus parade. What a thrill! My first paying job.
RIP Neil, we will miss you.
My sincere condolences to Barbara and the family and to sister Marge and her family
