Wayne and Beverly, I have many wonderful memories of your dad and mum, (and of course you and Bev) in the house on Cornwall street. 1010?
I mostly remember your dad in the basement at his work bench. I recall he once took Wayne & me fishing.

My thoughts go out to you & your your families.
Warmest Regards,
