A friend of mom and dad's called to let them know about Chris's accident (they are staying at the cottages til the end of this month). I would like to express our sympathies for the entire family in regards to his accident and passing. Words somehow seem inadequate to express our shock and dismay, and we wish there was some way we could ease your sorrow. Please don't hesitate to give them a call if you should need anything!! Yours truly, Sharon
