Yesterday

Hello Suzanne, sincere condolences to each of Iréne's family; today is the day for a last "Goodbye" to Iréne. We are thinking of you, at the same time, we are thinking of many memories when your parents came to Quebec to meet the Grégoire family; my father particularly loved the family of grandparents; we are happy to have met you with your mother, Doris and her son 2 years ago at Muriel's funeral; we are never prepared for the Great Departure of our parents, even at an advanced age; we are with you all in this moment of sadness; take care of yourselves...and may the Best be
